"Just wait" why can't he Just leave me be?
" what? Do you want something?" I said with a hint of irritation in my voice. I don't look back. What's the point of looking back if i only see his perfectly handsome lying face.
It's not worth it, you know...
"I just want to talk to you." Well, look at that, he managed to catch up! It's so annoying; it's like I'm running a marathon with how fast I'm walking, but he's still keeping up, the nuisance. Curse your perfectly built long legs. And imagine, I'm wearing four-inch heels. So if I can't hold back, I'll stomp on him with these sandals I'm wearing. He's really getting on my nerves!
And what did he say? Talk?!! About what?!!! Talk about what exactly!? The nerve of this idiot. Honestly, I was really getting annoyed with this person. I suddenly stopped, so he did too. Luckily, he didn't bump into me because it was close. I suddenly faced him and gave him a death glare. Oh, the nerve to smirk!
"What! Are you just going to grin like an idiot?! Didn't you say you wanted to talk!? So talk, don't just stand there smirking; you're not that appealing, you just look like a fool!!"I said with so much impatience in my voice.
"I just wanted to say that....." I tapped my foot on the pavement, waiting for him to continue with whatever nonsense he was about to say. But minutes passed, and he was just staring at me as if I knew what he was going to say next. And being me, I turned my back on him AGAIN. What does he think, that I want to stare at him? Huh?! Dream on dude!I started to walk away gracefully. Yes, I'm graceful—any problem with that, take it up with the one who made me.
Ahem... As I was feeling fabulous walking out of the mall, another annoying person grabbed my hand and stopped me. I yanked my hand away from him.
" What?! Don't you really want to leave me alone!!!!" I shouted at this annoying person.
" I'm sorry; we haven't talked yet.!!" Wow! Just!! Wow.
"Will I already give you a chance to talk, but you just stare at me like!? For the whole minute, so I thought you were done talking." I'm really frustrated, how am I supposed to get to where I'm going if you're always stopping me every time I walk away?
" I'm sorry, it's just that you're really beautiful." Oh, look at that, sweet-talking again. If you hadn't said what you said back then, I might have believed you, but oh well...
"You don't have to state the obvious. You know!? It's not like I believe you. I know I'm beautiful, but not because you say it! I know I'm beautiful because I see it!" I said it like it was nothing. When I looked at him, he was staring again.
" If you have nothing else to say, I need to go."I said and then started to walk away... "You really changed," he said in a whisper, but I still heard it...
Only three words and it impacted me like an uppercut punch, but instead of hitting my jaw, it hit straight at my heart and made it painful...
My tears are threatening to fall from my moist eyes. The pain I felt from the beginning that I was desperately trying to forget suddenly appeared and was worse than ever because the cause of it was standing behind me saying those three words as if it was a mistake... Is it a mistake to change me? So that I won't die from the pain he caused. How dare he! I slowly turned around and looked at him, really looked. Then I said in my coldest voice. "And whose fault is it that I changed?!" I asked as if it were the simplest question ever, and it is... "I'm sorry, I have my reasons," he said, as if to say, "Hey listen, this is my reason and it's enough, so forget the rest and accept it."
like hell.
" I don't care about your bloody reason. Your reason won't take away the pain that I felt before!"
" Before..." He said it as if he can't believe I said it.
"Yes, before."I tried my hardest to not let it show that I'm still hurting. He can't know... "Why? He looks me in the eye and I can see through it. The pain, loneliness, and longing, but I'm not the same as before. If he deceived me then, I won't let it happen again.
" You ask that like it's not obvious. I moved on."That's my last word, and I'm in a hurry to leave; I need to get away before my emotions betray me, and thank God he didn't follow. It's been seven years and it feels like it was just yesterday. Gradually, the held-back tears flowed as I got into my car. I can't let him hurt me again. I did everything to overcome the pain he caused, and I'll be damned if I'm weak again. He fooled me before; I'll be damned if I let it happen again. I promise myself that I'll never be that pathetic girl again. I won't let them step on me again; I'd rather die than be hurt again.
