Chapter 16 - Chapter 15

"who's Dave?" He asked and she immediately freed herself from his grip.

"Answer me you bitch!"he roared.

She was already confused. She helped herself to a sofa,crying profusely.

"Wait up... Are you using me to remember someone, something evil that happened to you? Oh God! Why me? I don't understand Rachel! Speak up! Why? After all the trust" this time he was in tears.

"I'm sorry okay,I'm sorry"she apologized, crying.

"Don't you dare come near me until you've explained yourself" he said.

"I'm sorry,okay? I didn't mean any of that really"

He turned his back towards her and she came closer,crying.

Turning to look at her, he asked, desperate for the truth; "who are you Rachel? How am I not sure that you're not just lying to me?" He was in tears. He couldn't believe the woman he cared about mistook him for a rapist; "you hurt my feelings Rachel" he continued. Swallowing a lump in his throat,he sobbed.

"Feelings? What feelings?" She was still crying.

Paschal took a good stare at her and realized the crying only made her more beautiful. He cupped her face; "this feelings I have for you--" he brought his face close to hers.

Shirley saw another face. Different from Paschal's and screamed letting go; "You bastard! Don't you dare come near me!" Now Paschal was greatly puzzled. Was it just him or.. "you've come back right?!" She said terrified.

"Rachel, what's wrong with you?!" Paschal cried out and then she realized herself and started weeping again. "What's wrong with you?!"

"-" Shirley kept on weeping.

"I don't know,I'm confused,make me understand" he said.

"I'm confused also" she brought herself to hold his face but Paschal could see fear vividly right through her eyes. He pulled from her and stepped back.

"Get out."

She held herself crying the more "Look Paschal-- I can explain"she said

"I-said-leave" he threw her handbag towards her.

"Paschal please" she begged.

"I said leave! LEAVE!" He screamed but she stood there.

She still refused. "Just...hear...me...out"she pleaded.

"Look Rachel. You said that two minutes ago,don't let me loose my mind"he swallowed, running his hands through his hair. "Just leave..." He said.

She couldn't believe she messed up everything. She looked at him to see if he'll change his mind but,he turned his back towards her.

Swallowing hard,she took her handbag from where he threw it and turned to leave.

She walked to the door still hoping he'll call her back but,nothing.

And then he said; "Rachel?"

She quickly turned around.

"...and please,don't come here again"
