POV: Grace
"Hello, honey... I'm glad you are back.. did you have fun with Ms. Tan.. when you two." She nudged my arm. "Were in private.... did you have fun? You must have really had a lot of fun being with her so much why not marry her now?" She started gritting her teeth in front of me...
UGH. IS THIS WHAT THEY CALL BEING JEALOUS. Can't relate. I'm not really a sucker for love.. except for Louie.... that is... ANYWAYS! This girl is starting to annoy me like legit... Who knew love had these clingy people... well how should I know.. I don't have any experience in love...
FLASHBACK...
Back then at College... while my hoe dorm mates partied hard and got wasted. I stayed home and continued to study hard. I always remember them ranting about their love lives.. struggles with how big he is or whatnot when we have our weekend drinks... I just join since I needed to maintain a good social standing so I use them as pawns for my sinister game of popularity. You know the typical thing I do.
"I can't believe it! Jackson is cheating one me with KELLY! MY FUCKING BEST FRIEND I CAN'T BELIEVE HER!" One of the girls in our table ranted.. drowning her sorrows with alcohol...
I am really bad at remembering names.. so I don't really know the names of any of these girls but I still hang out with them.. cause I'm here for the free food... I MEAN WHO COULD SAY NO TO FREE FOOD!
"Girl.. you already know that Kelly is such a hoe, to begin with... I heard she sleeps with a lot of guys on the campus..." One of them whispered to one another.
"I'll just spread rumors about the slut. So she gets what she fucking deserves..."
Or.. maybe you can just confront her personally and then tell what you feel.. instead of starting rumors.. why not just tell her what you feel and face her... also Jackson was a total fuckboy.. what did you expect going out with him...
"Ugh you are so bad at love... maybe just find a replacement for him. There's plenty of fish in the sea." The girl in front of me suggested.
Or.. MAYBE SHE CAN I don't know.. get a job. Enhance your mind and body. Study and get better.. life is not just about dating and love you know...
"I know right!" She gulped down on the liquor in front of her like a mad man...
THESE GIRLS BE OUT HERE HAVING PROBLEMS ABOUT CHEATING AND I'M OUT HERE TRYING TO FIGURE OUT STOCKS AND PROPER INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITIES... I should really get a job soon.. or start a small business... I know that just studying is not gonna cut it. If I want to be successful.
"Hey Grace. You've been awfully quiet all night. Why don't you tell us something about yourself? You always seem to just be studying all the time." The girl beside me tapped my shoulder.
"Ya that's right.. you always have that studious vibe to you. Can't you at least tell us about your love life! You're like in a girl's night out! Let's talk about boys!" The other girl in front of me demanded.
OKAY..WHY IS THE CONVERSATION SUDDENLY JUST TURNING TOWARDS ME. Welp not that I'm socially anxious...
"Oh.. I don't really have a love life... I'm honestly too busy with studying.. that I just don't really have time for any romance or drama in my life." I giggled.
"I heard you got in here through a scholarship right? There's like a quota you have to achieve to stay right?" The girl beside me asked.
"Yes... I have to achieve high grades every semester.. so I really just have no time for love..." I chuckled slightly...
They all started to look at each other.. like they wanted to ask me something and then they slightly turned to me.
"Really?! Grace?! Do you know any good looking rich guys?! You're in the business department and that's usually where the rich guys go right!?" They all shouted.
"Oh.. I'm not really sure... honestly I'm too focused on my studies I don't bother looking at my classmates.. but I did see a few that are good looking I guess.. but maybe try coming to our department building sometime so you can see.." I responded completely shocked by the question.
"Aww.. I honestly wish you know like a hot CEO that will sweep you away from your feet you know? Like from those novels and tv shows.. that handsome CEO being possessive." The girls giggled...
Doesn't these girls know what's the difference between fiction and reality?
"Honestly why do you need to study and work hard when you can just find a rich and hot husband to take care of you. Right Grace?" They turned to me waiting for my answer.
"Grace you are so lucky! You really need to snag up a hot and handsome CEO to take you everywhere you want!"
I chuckled slightly. "Oh. Not really... I don't really have an eye for any of the men in my department. I'm kind of like the "Do it yourself" type of girl you know. I don't really like being dependant on anyone. Also I don't really need a CEO to be my knight and shining armor.. because I want to be a CEO myself." I answered them.
I could see the look in their faces.. they were a bit surprised.. and weirded out... I guess it's just pretty common for the woman to depend on the men for the financial needs when I am far capable of sustaining myself...
FLASHBACK END.
And ever since then... I've never had a relationship like ever... but I guess I'll just treat Isabel like how those CEO husbands that got forced into marriage or whatever acts.
"Don't worry honey... Ms. Tan may have taken my time.. but I'm all yours..."
... WHAT WAS THAT LINE THAT WAS THE MOST CRINGIEST LINE I'VE EVER SEEN... I-
"Oh thank you! Honey! I'm all yours tonight! Let's continue with our dinner!" She giggled gripping my arm like a snake catching her prey.
"Yes let's continue our dinner.." I smiled awkwardly.
"LET'S ALSO MAKE LOVE.."
OKAY THAT'S WEIRD NO! DON'T MAKE THIS INTO AN R-18 THING!
