His face is cold,and he didn't even looks at her.
"I'm sorry, Daniella. But you deserve better than me."his voice hard and determined.
Determined to what? Kick me out of his life?
"Stop lying." she managed to get out through gritted teeth, waves after waves of emotions rushed in her body, crushing her violently.
"Then, as you wish." his eyes turned colder, "I deserve better than you." he said, emotionless.
"What?" she breathed out,quite perplexed, "What do you mean, Noah? Am I not good enough for you? Why are doing this to me??" she said, eyes started to glisten with tears.She so rarely cry, but when she started to cry, she can't stop...
"I'm sorry, Daniella. But we can't continue this anymore. I CAN'T. We are not for each other."
Her heart beating fast in fear. "B-but, Noah—" her voice cracked, "—why? Why are we breaking up right now? I mean, we were just fine before. How did we get into this? How did we end like this?Don't you love me?" her voice trembling, her body shaking and tears flowing down like a waterfall, wetting her fair cheeks.
Why did he want to break up?Why??? Didn't we love each other? Why so suddenly...
" That's why, Daniella. We WERE fine. But not anymore. "
She looked up at him desperately, waiting for him to speak again. And just maybe, he was joking earlier. Maybe he just wants to surprise her. So, he did this crazy thing.
Right?
"I don't love you anymore." he said, "No, scratch that."he ruffled his hair, his eyes became hard, looking down at her, "I never loved you."
Ah.
New tears started to form, making her electric grey eyes shine. Her lips were trembling, and yet after she heard all of that, she still couldn't believe it.She still hold onto whatever hope she can get a hold on. She still hopes..
"I didn't even know why I dated you. You are such an ignorant b*tch. You think all you do is right,so f*cking dumb.You are just don't good enough for me. " his words were harsh, and they stabbed through her heart violently, all at once.
She couldn't stop her tears now even when she desperately needs to.
He scoffed." What? You are crying? You, Daniella Ramirez, a stupid b*tch, is crying now? ", he laughed," It won't work on me, Daniella. I feel nothing toward you now." he paused, "Heck, I'm feeling disgusted of you now, you know. You so f*cking don't deserve me."
She was weeping now, and she tried to stop it. She clenched her trembling hands, looking down.She bit her lower lip hard, for she hates crying, until she tasted the metallic of blood.
He turned, ready to leave.
She panicked. 'Is he gonna leave? I don't have anyone but him. He can't leave me!'
"W-wait!!", she caught his arm, "Please don't leave! I-I, I swear I'll change, I swear. " she vowed, "We can start over! Just please," she was desperate for his love, "Please don't leave me." she tightened her grips on his arm, looking down, squishing her wet eyes, "I'm begging you." her voice tiny, full of hope, desperate.
But he didn't even turn his head to look at her. "Why don't you understand? I don't love you. I have someone else, Daniella. You're nothing compared to her."
And that, that really hurts.
She couldn't breath. He yanked his arm from her hold. Without saying anything, he walked away from her, without even looking at her. Just like always...
But now, it's forever.He's gone forever.
She grabbed her hair, her knees felt so weak now as they gave up, sending her down on the floor.Her everything now is gone.
"Noah..." she whimpered weakly, weeping uncontrollably.
Why? Why everyone she loves had to leave her? She have no one now.. Why did they leave? She just wanted to be love.
Is it so hard to stay?
All everyone have done to her, is leave. No one stay... No one...
_________________________________
Daniella looks at the box in front of her blankly, feeling numb. Huff, that bastard Noah, was the reason the old Daniella became like that. She was just fine before.
The old Daniella was originally a happy, gentle and kind young lady. She was so naive to believe that everything is all rainbow. But after her parents died, she feels lonely, and the more distant she was with Daniel. Xiu Ying didn't really understand why the old Daniella became cold toward her brother.
The old Daniella was quite childish. With the hot young blood, she was quite short-tempered. Plus with the failure of her first relationship. She was rebellious because Daniel gave her advices and his dislikes toward Noah.
Xiu Ying sighed. She nearly forgot her actual name with the events happened recently.
"Caught in a lie~", her ringtone of Lie,a single song from her favourite boy band echoed in her room.
She reached for her phone on her work table, looking at the ID before she picks it up,
"Yeah?" her voice came out tiny.
"Xavia...Please come here. " his voice strained, like he was fighting with something.
"Are you okay??? Where are you???" she started to panic, hearing his voice in pain.
"Starbucks. Near your apartment."he is breathing heavily.
" Wait for me. "she said quickly and hung up the phone.
She stormed out of her work room, snatching a long robe and a cap, practically running out of the apartment.
" Hey, Xav!Where are you going??!! "she heard Daniel's screaming from the apartment.
" Out!! "she shouted back at him.
She couldn't waste time any longer. What if he was in danger? What if—
She shakes her head, hoping all the bad thoughts flying out of her mind.
Anyway...
What the heck is he doing this late night at a Starbucks??!!
_____________________________________
Everything passing around her is a blur. Only him is in her head.
She was panting the moment she arrived in front of the Starbucks.
She pushed the front door, entering in. She searched around her, looking for the gold eyed guy, but she couldn't find him. She didn't even notice the moment she was in, people was looking at her.
But most of them didn't got the chance to take a picture, for she quickly gets out when she was sure he isn't in there.
Where is him?
She looks around the Starbucks, halting between the Starbucks and the Jag, a famous club in this area.
For a split second, the image of Xavier hugging and flirting with the sexy women of the club flashes in front of her eyes.
No, he wouldn't do that.
He loves her...
Right?
She looks at the dark alley, and saw something moving in the dark.
The heck... Hopes she is not one of the protagonist in a horror film.
She walked forward slowly, and squinted her eyes in the dark.
Something flashed, and thick, foggy smokes started to surround.
Ah, now she feels really uneasy.
And when she was close enough to be able to see in front of her, she gasped.
Uh oh.
There was Xavier, his clawed fingers wrapped around a delicate neck of a woman, sexy in her too short blindly sparkling pink dress, choked in the air.
What is he doing?
"Xavier." she called, still panting because of the running.
Now she could see black veins covering his hands to his elbows.
He tilted his head toward her direction,looking at her with pleasant surprise.
"Oh hello,love." he smiles mischievously, looking somewhat scary and charming.
Damn.
