"Have you ever got a little bit tired of life
Like you're not really happy
But you don't wanna die
Like you're hanging by a thread
But you gotta survive
Coz you gotta survive"
🌻SERENE🌻
"Papa... are you kidding me?" I asked as I stood up from the chair with a bewildered expression.
"Listen to me.... I know how you might be feeling..... I know you want to study more but they will let you study..... you can complete and be a doctor and can do your work" he said trying to calm me down and I sighed.
"I don't want to get married anytime soon... I'm just 23 and..... and I.... don't want anybody in my life...." I trailed off and line tear slipped through my eyes and I could feel the gaze of my stepmother who was looking at me.
"Listen.... it's for your own good...." he said and I shook my head vigorously.
"No..... I know what's good for me..." I said firmly yet my voice and emotions betrayed me.
"Don't tell me you have a boyfriend. I knew that! You are also whoring around just like your m-" I cut him off as I harshly hit my hand on the table. Tears started streaming down my face.
"Stop it!" I yelled at them before storming into my room before slamming the door shut.
I still could hear those faint yells of my father which weren't clear.
I hugged my pillow tightly as I layed on the bed. Why me? Why should I deserve all the suffering? Why God?
I sobbed trying my best not to make any sound but then my phone started ringing.
Mr. Devil 👿
This guy was calling me for a lot of times. Since the moment I entered the train.
"Hello" I said as a small faint whisper.
"Hel- were you crying?" He asked cutting off himself in the middle. Why does this guy knows me so much and I don't know him at all?
"No I'm not..." I denied.
"Video call me" he ordered. Gosh!
"No its-"
"Video call. Right.now. I will do it. Pick it up" he said and hung up before I could say something. This guy is really unpredictable.
In a moment my phone started ringing and I picked it up and found his worried face. I thought to tease him a bit and I didn't showed him my face.
"Reina! Stop it. I don't want to see the ceiling but you...." he said and I chuckled.
"But I don't want you to see me" I said. Only my voice will be audible from him.
"Reina, please... or else you want me to come there?" He asked and I quickly took the phone and he saw my face and glared.
"Who made my Reina cry?" He said in a dangerous voice which scared even my cat who was currently on my lap. His name is Reo.
"It's just some dust" I said and he raised his brow
"Dust? It's a good one baby girl but you're a bad liar" he said and I looked at him for a moment before sighing.
"It's nothing.... just some... family issues" I said and he stared at me for a moment before nodding his head.
"Hmm... I know it's not the only thing but please tell me when you wants to.... I'm all yours... I mean all ears" he said, scrubbing the back of his neck with a small tint of pink on his cheeks. I chuckled. He's cute.
Then his gaze shifted to Reo who was snuggling more to my lap and he glared at him. Don't tell me he's jealous of a cat.
"What's that ugly little creature on your lap?" He asked; glaring at my cat whereas I glared at him for calling my baby a ugly creature
"Hello Mr. Fernández! My baby Reo is the cutest.... don't you dare call my baby ugly... you little old man" I snapped, kissing my cat's head and it snuggles more into my lap whereas my dearest client looked at me as if I'm a ostrich with a penguin's head.
"Baby? You call this creature a baby?" He asked in disbelief and I nodded much head proudly.
"You even.... kissed it!" He said with wide eyes and I shrugged my shoulders.
"So what? I can kiss anybody I want...." I said and he smirked and I raised my brow.
"What?" I asked him as I caressed my Reo's head.
"Then am I in the list?" He asked and I was confused. List? What list?
"What do you mean?" I asked confused.
"Am in the list of people who you kiss?" He asked and I took a little while to process what he said and I glared at him.
"You're shameless" I said in disbelief but I can feel my cheeks heating up at his words.
"Only for you..." he said and I sinked into my pillow, hiding my face.
"As if I'm gonna kiss you" I mumbled and he smirked again.
"You will Reina. You will" He said and I was about to retort back but someone knocked on my door. What a wrong timing.
"I gotta go bye!" I said and hung up and opened the door and found my step mother at my doorstep.
"Yes... mother" I said, letting her in and she cane inside and sat on my bed and so did I.
"I'm sorry" she said and I looked at her for a moment before understanding where this conversation is gonna go.
"But look Sera.... it's for your own good... he's a good guy.... just see him once and I swear you'll love him" she said and I sat there silently.
"Please.... if not for you... then do it if you... love your father" She said and left while I stood there in a haze.
When I started liking someone everything is going wrong. Why? Why me?
I guess God is obsessed with punishing me for the deeds I've never did.
The only question is why?
