Chereads / THE GOLD DIGGER / Chapter 2 - The Feeling Is Gone

Chapter 2 - The Feeling Is Gone

Gizelle closed her eyes. Let the woman who claims to have a lot of fat babble on her own until her energy runs out. While she will sleep for a while.

"Giz."

"Giz," Freya called again because there was no answer from the woman next to her.

"Gizelle!" she called while looking to the side.

"Gosh, this woman! I've been talking a lot but she's still asleep. You pig!"

"What are you talking about, Freya? How dare you swear at me with that animal, huh?!"

Oh- she was still awake. Freya brought her face closer to Gizelle and then waved her hand in front of the woman's face.

Instantly she was shocked.

"What are you doing, hey?! Even if I close my eyes, I'm still awake. What creature do you think can sleep when there's a leaking faucet next to it, huh?!"

Tch! Leaking faucet mouth she said? Hey! Freya is just a hobby of complaining, is that wrong? Then what about this stupid woman who has a spicy mouth every time she opens her voice?

"I thought you were sleeping."

Freya is just lazy to argue, what more with this stubborn one. She is still sadly lamenting her weight gain again.

"Where were you from? You said you were only going to the cafe for a while, didn't you?" Freya asked again.

The woman who was leaning on the sofa was still reluctant to open her eyes. "I just met Edward."

What?!

"Seeing Edward?" Freya repeated confirming what she heard. "Don't tell me that you..."

"Yes. I did. I severed my relationship unilaterally as I told you yesterday."

"Oh My God! Tell me, did I hear right? Are you sure to end your relationship?"

Is this woman deaf? It was clear that Gizelle had said break up. Why are you still asking?

"I don't know, Fre. Just pretend you didn't hear anything. You're deaf."

"Tsk! This idiot!" Freya growled. "Giz... are you serious about your decision?"

The woman who was flicked opened her eyes. What's wrong?

"Sure. What's bothering you?"

"I mean... a man as perfect as Edward you let go? Are you blind or what, huh?!"

Tch! Could it be that all this time Freya secretly liked the lover that Gizelle always told this woman about!

"You think he's perfect?"

Freya nodded.

"Then why don't you just date him?"

"Oh my gosh! I can never escape the charm of my ex-boyfriend. How could I fall in love with someone else when I still have Ben's name engraved in my heart?"

Top-class cupidity!

Ben is the name of Freya's ex-lover about 6 months ago. The man decided Freya was one-sided because he found a more beautiful woman who had a body like a Spanish guitar.

Yeah, most men are. Meet a prettier one, immediately turned away.

"Besides, no matter how perfect Edward is in my eyes, it won't change the feelings I have for Ben."

"Well, it's up to you. It's better not to talk to me if you intend to praise your ex who is often body shaming," Gizele closed her eyes again.

Really, Gizelle is so lazy when he has to listen to Freya's ramblings about that bastard Ben. How could this woman still want love from a man who had mocked her body?

It is known that before they broke up, Ben said that the man hated seeing his lover's body which was getting bigger day by day. That's what then makes Freya determined to lose weight hoping that Ben can come back to her.

Oh- how stupid it would be to fight like that just for a man as physical as Ben. Gizelle thought so.

"No. I'm not in the mood for Ben. I just wanted to know about you and Edward."

Gizelle could feel her apartment neighbor's body getting closer to her. "What do you want to know?"

"How will he react when he finds out that your feelings for him are gone?"

Gizelle sighed. He then corrected his sitting position. "I'm not telling the truth."

"Then?"

"I reasoned that I wanted to break up because the family company was in danger of going bankrupt."

What the hell?! What's on this woman's mind? Oh My... Freya gaped. He couldn't stop thinking about this one neighbor.

"Bitch! Are you out of your mind, huh?! With the way you used the Edward family's bankruptcy as your reason for breaking up, it would make you look like a woman who looks up to treasure, you idiot!" said Gizelle vehemently. She didn't understand what this woman thought.

"Don't swear at me, damn it!" Gizelle cursed no less fiercely. "I've planned everything. I hope that in this way, Edward will easily forget me and it won't take long for him to move on. Come on, I can tell from the look in his eyes that he still loves me very much. But I have no other decision. I think he is too good for me."

Hm, yeah, Freya understands now.

"Why don't you just tell him your real reason? What's the problem if you say you don't have feelings for him anymore?"

Tsk! Freya besides having excess fat, also has excess stupidity.

"That's going to hurt him even more, you idiot! I can't bear to see his promise to make me love him again. I'd rather see him hurt because he knows I'm rotten than see him feel like a failure in a relationship with me."

Freya's eyes narrowed. "You are... like you still care. Then why did you choose to end it?"

"Is it true that if you care, you have to be in a relationship?"

Oh- yea, that's right.

"Sometimes we have to let someone go for the common good. I chose this path because I was afraid the longer I was held, the more Edward would feel about me."

Oh- how complicated people's love stories are. Freya thought.

Lieblings Bar Berlin, 10.00 pm.

"Is the bar always busy here?"

The woman lifted her head, staring at a man who had just sipped tequila.
