"You were a mistake from the beginning!" He roared his voice echoing through the room.
"I knew it you were here to play with me. You knew how fragile I was and yet you toyed with my heart!" He was seething a mouthful of curses and I looked anywhere but his face.
I could feel his anger. His aura was too strong to go unnoticed. And so I looked away.
He moved a few inches closer to me and held my chin to look at him in the eye.
"Baby," I called in a verge of tears. I was intending to play with him. Initially it was my motive but on the way I fell in love with him. How could I convince him I loved him.
"Baby, I'm sorry." I cried. This made him more angry as his hand on my chin tightened. He was never a violent man. Not before has he ever raised his hand on me. He was always careful around me. Treated me like I was the only thing he had in this world. I was his treasure and yet chose to hurt.
"Why Val," he called my name in a lot of pain. The pain in his eyes could not longer hide. I noticed a stray tear stroll carelessly down his cheek.
Fast, I wiped it, smiling at the broken man before me.
"Please forgive me baby," I begged him.
"I'm so sorry my love. That doesn't mean I don't love you." I whispered.
His hand that was holding my chin was fast to release it. His jaw clenched, his fingers coiled into a fist.
"You liar!" He growled.
"You're still lying to me Val. What did I ever do you to you?" At this point , he was already in a pool of tears.
Brian was my classmate way back in primary. I studied with him at GPA academy when we were very young.
I was a naive junior year old girl, who had a lot of admirers at school. Brian was among them. I was unable to notice Brian's liking towards me because I was too much engulfed in another senior student, who was every girl's dream back them.
Brian had gone to the the extent of repeating a class so as I could notice him, but I didn't . Blinded by my crush towards Conrad, I left Brian very heartbroken.
His efforts to get himself noticed by me all proved futile. For instance, he competed with me in every contest and beat me in all of it. The fact that he was my competitor, made me develop a dislike towards him. Little did I know all Brian was doing was to get noticed by me.
A year passed and the term was coming to end. On my side, Conrad the hot guy at school noticed me and asked me out. We were officially dating and were the envy couple at school. Brian on receiving the news, he was very heartbroken and convinced his parents to change him from our school.
His absence was barely noticed by any of us. Brian cut off all communications with everyone at school, including me.
10 years later, I received an unknown message on WhatsApp. When I inquired who the person was, behold to my surprise it was Brian. All these year, he never forgot about me.
He narrated to me how his life has been for the last ten years. I gasped at how developed he had become over the years.
The photos he had sent me of him, looked like nothing I knew of him. He was a very young, handsome man, with a striking appearance of a Greek God. Brian, looked devilishly gorgeous I could not stop staring.
It was then he narrated to me how he had his crush on me way back and how heartbroken he was when I announced my relationship with Conrad.
I laughed, thinking of how everything sounded very childish. I was barely fifteen, let alone serious about relationships.
Brian inquired about my life, and I took the opportunity to fill him on everything. I was almost graduating from Campus. Brian on the other hand, had already graduated and was running his family business. Not only that, he was one of the most elite bachelors in the City.
Brian McDermott Grey!
His name was allover the magazines in the city. Until today, I've never been interested in the life of businessmen and influencers. This Brian guy, like a sudden wave in my life, automatically shaped my preference.
For days since he sent me his pictures, I began stalking him everywhere and anywhere. I was following him on all his social media platforms and had even engaged him in a few of them.
With my due diligence, I found out Brian was till unamrried and had no history of dating. This was a great opportunity for me to make my move.
"Knack Brian McDermott," I noted it down on my year's resolutions . I had made it my core motive to get Brian into a relationship with me and then have sex with him. I did this out of self sufficiency. I wanted to have something no one in this town was having. Little did I know, Mr. McDermott Grey would hopelessly fall in love with me!
