Chapter 10 - Emotional blackmail

Ray

As time went on I did not feel like keeping the relationship a secret any more. But Ammy was not ready. I hated the fact that I was lying to my friends. And I was so in love with her that I wanted to share this news to the whole world but I needed her to be comfortable about it.

Not knowing what to do, I explained my current situation to Carl. He was always very understanding and we were the closet among the CREW. Many people are also not awaered that Carl is my childhood friend and I could tell him anything.

He advised that I had enough money to change her situation, so I should go ahead and make her good enough for my status. Carl has always been of the opinion that Love was not for us. He believed that everyone that came close to us was either there for the money or fame. I was set to Prove him wrong with Ammy. He said if ever there was a lady that truly loved us, we may never notice her.

After Carl's advise I found a way to get some money out of my account without mum noticing. I could have just done a transfer but I did not want to leave any track, especially for mum. She will tag Ammy a gold digger should I make the transfer and she will never accept the relationship. So I got the money cash then got her a form to join Mount wings.

She is very intelligent and talented, so I was confident she would make it into a Mount Wing.

After getting everything ready, I became scared that she will not accept it from me. I mean she alway reject most of the gift that I got for her. Most importantly she has never collected money from me. I alway put it into her bag unknowly to her and I hard to play a major trick on her to get her bank details.

I have to make sure she collected it. So I started making plans to create the perfect opportunity to trick her into collecting the money.

The plan was simple, if I made her understand how sad it made me not to be able to introduce her as my girlfriend and how much it meant if she become a student just so that we could be together openly, I am sure she will accept. If she believes it was what is best for our relationship than she would definitely accept the gift.

One day after I had my usual rehearsal with Ammy, I received a call from Carl, which was a very simple coincidence planned by me. Ammy was not aware that I was preparing her for her entrance examination for Mount Wings. I knew very well that we should be in a birthday party of a friend but I had scheduled a rehearsal with Ammy at about the same time, knowing that I will receive this call.

After giving some excuses why I will not make it to the party I turned to look at Ammy and I tried to look as unhappy as possible. I was really unhappy but I needed to make good use of the situation.

What wrong? she asked me. I shake my head to mean nothing but I was certain she will not take that as an answer. And I was right because she immediately sat on my lap and made me look into her eye. You are unhappy about something please tell me about it. It breaks my heart to see you this way, she said to me.

I avoid her eye and told her it was fine. God I will make a good actor, I thought within myself as of that time. Please dear don't do this to me tell me. she push to know what wrong. I could see she was desperate to know what was wrong with me which is what I wanted.

I look at her calmly. I am very happy spending this time with you. is just that it makes me sad to keep our relationship a secret and lie to my friends. She looked at me and I could see she was completely in lost of what to say. This plan is going very smoothly I thought to myself. And I understand it hard for you too it just kind of make me sad, I said. she pulled me into a hug. I smiled in my heart time to play the emotional blackmail, I said mentally.

Do you distrust me that much? I asked out of no where.

What! she said letting go of our hug and looking at me with shock. What... Are... You... Talking about she counted her words. This is going too smoothly I thought within myself. You know I sometimes think you don't trust me, that why you don't want anyone to know about this relationship, I said.

What! That not true. I do trust you I could see that tears were about escape her eyes but she was trying to hold them back. It hurt me to see her like that but it was all for the best. I looked at her like I was trying to believe her but it was hard.

The only reason why I want to keep this relationship a secret is because I am scared. once the news gets out the relationship will be over, I am scared of losing you. Do you really believe that your parents will let you have a relationship with a common cleaner like myself. She said finally letting herself cry.

I held her hand, do you trust me? I asked her and she nodded her head. Then would you do anything I ask you to do so we could make our relationship public. She looked at me confused. Would you? I asked again.

She looked into my eyes and then nodded her head. I pulled her into a hug. I will think of something I said. I knew that if I told her she may realize this was my plan and get angry so it was best to end the conversation here.

I am now totally convinced that she loves me and she was not with me for the money or fame. We have been dating for over six months and she never trys to get me to do anything for her.

If she wanted the money so much, she could have been making a lots of demands but she never did. In fact two month ago we got some dancers for our music video I asked if she was interested since she is also a great dancer. She said she was. I was going to call our dance director telling him I already got one person and he should look for only four but she stopped me and insisted that she will go for the adution like everone else.

She went for the adution and I made sure she got the job but of course she knew nothing about my involvement. After our conversation that day I made plans to hand over the form for Mount Wings and the money in two days.
