Chapter 12 - 14. Busted!!

The whole situation is getting out of hand. Who could have told Justin about what happened between Kevin and I? Nothing even happened, I just helped a drank person, is that a crime? That faithful day was an unforgettable experience. That night, I told Justin that, I had accepted his proposal and he gave me a beautiful diamond necklace. I should have told Justin about it, that night but I was too happy that I forgot all about the unimportant matters. How am I going to explain this to Justin to understand? It is a week more for us to go back to Elamite and I am still here trying to figure out how to convince Justin that, I didn't have any affair with Kevin. This was what happened while we were chatting;

Me: I can't believe that we are actually dating. A guy that saved me from the giant hooligan, falling from the hotel building and fought with me the same day is actually my boyfriend.πŸ€—πŸ€—πŸ₯°πŸ₯°πŸ₯°

BF: I can't believe it either but what do we have to do?😌😌 Anyway, I have a question to ask you and tell me nothing but the truth. Promise me,🀚🀚

Me: I cross my heart, hope to die. I will tell you nothing but the fact of the matter. Promise 🀚🀚

BF: I saw some pictures of you and a guy named Kevin. He was in your hotel room. Surprisingly, you two were the only human beings in the room. Where from him?🀨🀨

Me: Oh sorry dear, I forgot to tell you. The day I accepted your proposal, I was late, yes and I was like it was because of an important issue that came in. It was Kevin that got drank, he almost fell on me so I had to help him out. Nothing really happened.😌

BF: Are you sure you are telling me the truth, then what about these pictures?🀨🀨

The pictures shocked me to my bone. It looked as if they were edited or something, but when I took a close look at it, I realized that, the pictures weren't edited. That was the moment he held my hand, and the second one was when I was whispering into his ears. Tears could not stop flowing down from my eyes, how could somebody that I love so much believe such a thing about me.

I couldn't tell anything to Bryant nor Cindy because I was afraid to put them into any kind of pain.

The next morning, I met Justin in a cafe. He was furious at me, so much that, he doesn't even want to look at me. Now I know that I love Justin more than Kevin and here lies the case, Justin and I are having problems, just a week of dating. Today was exactly one week that I said yes to Justin. With a teary eyes, I asked him,"So Justin, you don't even trust me?How can you believe a third party more than your own girlfriend? Now look at us, you don't wanna look at my face because you've taken what they've sent you so seriously that your heart has even agreed to it, what have I done wrong?" He raised his head up, looked at me and said,"What about the pictures Valerie? He was holding you as if he doesn't want you to go. As in, how lovers do take up each others hand and say, don't go, Valerie, I trust you but…" "But what Justin? You just found out that you love yourself more? You're afraid to commit yourself to me? I know that Suzy, Jessica and Vanessa all broke your heart and you're to give in your all but remember this Justin, that I am a different type of person," I cut in. I stood up to leave, and he carped softly,"My dad is seriously sick, I need to go back to wherever I'm coming from before in any case my dad dies. Anyway, I'll text you to meet me before I leave tomorrow. I'm taking the early morning flight." He is leaving? I know I was left with a week to go back to Elamite but I never knew that he will leave. I never should have fallen in love with any of these people. What was I even thinking? We all came for vacation and we'll go back to our various houses and here I am falling in love with a total stranger. What am I going to do now? Is this how our love story was going to end, what exactly was my problem? Me and love don't get along, I could remember, my first crush is now dating my best friend, my second crush was a traitor, my third crush was a womanizer and my fourth crush, who I love so much doesn't trust me at all. I am just so dump in love.

I opened the hotel room, entered and let myself onto the bed. Few minutes later, I heard a knock on the door and at the same time my phone beeped. I went to open the door first, and to my surprise, it was Justin. What could it be that, he wanted to tell me that, he had to come to my hotel room. He didn't even utter a word and before I could say my own, he grabbed me by my waist and said,"Valerie please forgive me for everything, I am deeply sorry." His face turned red and before I could say anything, he kissed me. Goodness, is it a goodbye kiss or what? My brain dissolved as he moved his lips against mine. He held my waist so firmly and placed me on the bed. Not kissing him back was killing me but I had to stop him. Before I could, he had stopped himself already, then he carped, "Valerie, you know that I love you so much right? My dad is dying and I have to go and take a proper care for him before anything bad happens to him. I might meet you today before I go back tomorrow. I have to go and pack my things now. I love you." "Love you more," I responded, he kissed me on the cheeks then my forehead and he left. At least, he gave me a good memory of him before we go our separate paths. While I was still thinking, Bryant and Cindy walked in, on seeing my red eyes, Cindy asked,"What is wrong with you Valerie? I've noticed you for the whole week that, you've been really sad. You sleep early, talk less and even your favourite food, you eat little of it. Wanna share?" I bursted into crying after hearing Cindy. Have I really changed that much that even my friends noticed it? Cindy placed my head on her lap and soothed my skin with her soft and delicate hand. "Let it all out dear, wanna go to the beach, I mean to the sea so that you can let it out on the sea?" she said with her hands still soothing my skin. In the cry tone, I answered,"Wait, let me finish crying here first." They could not believe that someone who was crying is actually saying that. Bryant laughed and said,"Valerie, if it is one of those your drama,then please cut it out because it is giving me real headache." "Drama? Are you saying drama? Justin is leaving tomorrow morning, you call that drama, he is angry with me because he saw some wired pictures, that one is drama right? Look at me Bryant, take a critical look at me. Can't I get love that is forever? Do I always have to suffer because of the thing called love, don't I deserve to be loved?" I yelled at him, put on a long pink dress, left the room and banged the door behind me. Cindy was right, the beach is the best place for me to go and get relieved. I sat a the curved stone that was always there for me and I screamed out to the sea,"What is wrong with the world against me? What have I ever done to anyone that I always get bad luck when it comes to the matter of the heart? Why!!!" I cried as I screamed. The same place which was a happy place when Justin proposed to me has turned to a war room as he was leaving. 'What am I going to do now?' A question I began to ask myself when I saw that there was no hope for me.

I was still crying when Kevin walked in, now the devil himself was in. He was the cause of all my problems, Justin was going to leave with pain his heart because he, Kevin was drank and as a good Samaritan I tried to help him but it seems as helping someone like him is the worst crime you can ever commit. Before he could talk, I cut in, "What the hell are you doing here? Haven't you caused enough problem already? Just leave me alone Kevin, just leave!!" Being stubborn as he was, he sat by me, I didn't want anybody or whoever told Justin about what happened to see us sitting together, as if we were having some kind of affair when the person saw us. I stood up and shouted, "Leave me alone Kevin, is it too hard to ask of you, is it so hard for you to do. Please Kevin, you've caused enough problem for me already, I don't want anymore problem." Kevin was a kind of person that is very stubborn, shouting on him couldn't solve anything at all. The more I shouted at him, the more he gets closer. I don't just get it, how stubborn could a human being be. "Please Kevin, my boyfriend is angry because he saw the pictures of you and I, when you were drank and I took you to my hotel room,"I tried in a calm mood. He looked at me in wonder, wheezed and protested,"Your boyfriend should be someone who trusts you more than anything. Nobody should be able to convince a boyfriend about who his girlfriend really is." He stood up and left. Though I was furious at Kevin, I noticed that he was making some sense, Justin should be able to believe me because of the love and trust he had for me. I continued crying until there was no more tears left in my eyes for me to cry out. Around six o'clock in the evening, I went back to the hotel, Bryant was the one that opened the door for me and he hugged me the moment he laid his on me. "Thank God you're okay Valerie, I was so worried about you. I am sorry for all that I said,"he cried. I wasn't in any good mood to talk so I just walked to my bed, laid on it and was fast asleep. My sleep was going on smoothly until I started to hear some noise which prevented me from continuing my sleep. I stood up and sat down on my hand. Seeing Bryant and Cindy around, I asked, "Who are those making such noises in my ear I can't just sleep." Bryant crackled,"I would go and shut them for you, don't they know that my princess is sleeping?" I stood up and walked towards the door with the intention of going to shut them up. "Don't go yourself Valerie, Bryant will go and shut them up for you," Cindy protested. "Yes Valerie, I'll go and shut them up for you, they don't know who they'll dealing with," Bryant agreed. "I would go myself and my decision is final,"I rout. There was shock all over their faces, I've never been like this, this is not me. Love has made me become something. I walked out of the door, went to where the noise was coming from, the person didn't say anything so I knew that it was because of the noise so I entered. Oh my goodness, what is happening here, what is Justin…
