Chapter 8

• (Bitch Samantha)
• I feel the swelling in my eyes from crying so much over what happened yesterday, I am currently preparing myself for my homecoming. Suddenly the door opened and I facelifted.
• "I'm here to get Kobe's car keys."
• I didn't answer and Samantha just went straight in here and went to the table. Immediately picked up the car key, I thought he was leaving immediately but it stopped in front of me as I sat on the couch.
• "I know all of you and all I can say is that you are very illusioned. Desperate is the thickness of your face as thick as your skin. After two months, you and Kobe are gone and I can't wait that you're going to devorce because we're going to be together and I'm going to marry, Kobe. "
• I just looked at her and didn't bother to answer because until now I was feeling bad.
• "You have no intention of answering? So, you'll just keep quiet because of the stupidity you made bitch! You did a big stupid thing so that's just right for you to regret what you did to Kobe."
• She said the last thing and went out the door, I closed my eyes tightly because of what she said. I want to answer but I can't.
• Should I give up? Can I just leave here? I am total to blame for all this. Just give up because Samantha is right, I did a big stupid thing.
• "Camilla."
• I raised my head again and saw Nicko with a serious face as he looked at me.
• "Come on I'll take you home, so you can rest properly." It spoke while standing on the side of the door.
• I just nodded and stood up, I glanced again at the room which I had experienced being claimed by my husband. The first thing that happened to Kobe and me that I will never forget, I was happy that day and I voluntarily left it to him even though this was the outcome.
• After that, I walked out the door, and Nicko and I went downstairs together. We headed to the parking area to get in Nicko's car, the surroundings were really quiet as they left or even Kobe I didn't even see before he left.
• I quietly got into the car and just stared straight at the front of the car
• The car started moving and I chose to keep quiet because I was wondering what to do. But I also think of his parent's plea that I just try to change Kobe's mind and heart, but it doesn't seem like I'm going to last because of what's happening. Because I had feelings for Kobe I gambled even though I knew in return 'it would only hurt me.
• "Do you want us to go for a walk?"
• I turned to Nicko and nodded I don't know why, maybe I need that too. Nicko stopped the car at the edge of the trees and we got out. We stopped nicely because it felt fresh because of the trees and some flowers around. I also saw a small creek.
• We walked slowly and I know Nicko, his feeling right now.
• "Am I stupid?" I stopped walking and was stunned by the withered flower.
• "I'm not sure, I also don't know what's really in your heart right now."
• I was stunned by his answer and the withered flower fell on the grass. I took a deep breath and held back the tears that wanted to well up to my cheeks.
• "Samantha, is right. I'm so illusory and this is what I got. Just kidding just because of the I.D, I found Kobe, I looked forward to something like that to Kobe." I smiled bitterly cause of what I said.
• "That's the reason, you don't know each other. But what you did was amazing and you were so brave." Laughing says, Nicko.
• I looked at him because he was smiling so I smiled at him too. Even though I was wondering because of what he said.
• "But, you'll be fine if you stop because everything has a limit and if you think you can't ... Stop." Nicko's serious language.
• I stared at his serious face and thought about what he said because he was right.
• "Nicko, thank you. Especially when you always comfort me, I'm ashamed of you too. But when you're there, I'm relieved." It was true inside that I told him he was smiling.
• "I'm just always here by your side, Camilla." He said softly.
• I was stunned and stared into his eyes and I felt something his eyes but I just ignored it.
• "Thanks again, come and take me home. I still have things to do at my house, Kobe." I spoke and I saw that he was bent over and mumbled.
• Here we are again in the car and it starts to drive again, we just keep quiet until we get to the gate of our house, Kobe.
• "Won't you go inside first?" I asked him at the window after I came out.
• "No, i'm ok. Just tell me when there's a problem. Always be careful." He said goodbye.
• "Yeah, thank you again." I smile at him. After that his leaving.
• The guard opened the door for me. I noticed that Kobe wasn’t here yet because his car wasn’t there yet, sadly I went inside because I knew he and Samantha were together now.
• I went straight to my room to rest because I didn't sleep well because of crying last night. I going inside, I immediately put my body on the big bed and looked at the ceiling. I closed my eyes tightly so as not to remember what happened last night until I was completely asleep.
• --------
• I woke up to the loudness of the sound and suddenly stood up, I noticed that my window was open and it was night because it was already dark outside. I was about to close the window because of the loud music, but I looked down at the swimming pool.
• There came the loud ringing and I heard a woman's voice. It was pretty dark so I couldn’t see who the woman was dancing to near the pool.
• I closed the window first and decided to go out of the room to peek there. As I went down the stairs the music got louder, until I could get out. I was stunned as I stood and saw was the woman dancing in a swimsuit. None other than, Samantha.
• "Camilla, did we disturb your sleep?" said as she stopped dancing and took Kobe's lap.
• I didn't answer and I looked at the blank expression on Kobe's face.
• "Kobe, this is too much. It's not right for you to bring a woman here, think of me anyway." My emotional language stopped and he looked at me.
• "What the? Girl, are you still asleeping? Can you hear what you're saying? Did you think of Kobe at the time when your flirtation existed?" eyebrows were raised, Samantha.
• My tongue stuck out and I couldn't answer because of what Samantha told me because it was so deep in my heart and I couldn't answer anything to her.
• "You didn't keep quiet, you know it's better. Just cook us some food so you can do something." Said again, Samantha.
• I secretly clenched my fist because of the way Samantha was commanding me and it was annoying.
• "Did you hear? Go and cook."
• I shrugged as Kobe spoke without looking at me. I noticed Samantha's sly grin which was something I was especially annoyed with.
• I turned my back on them when I saw Samantha kiss, Kobe, on the lips as if Kobe didn't exist. Disappointed I went to the kitchen and opened the refrigerator and looked for cooked food.
• "It's not an onion you're cutting, why are you crying?"
• I was shocked to hear Nicko’s familiar voice and the smiling eyes I saw while cutting the ingredients. Surprisingly I looked at him.
• "Why are you here?" I couldn’t believe my question because I didn’t expect him to be in front of me right now.
• "Aren't you happy to see me?" He answered with a laugh and stepped closer to me. "I just brought this swimsuit you left in my car. Adrian is here too. He's outside."
• I was just looking at the paper bag he was holding and now I just remembered that I didn't pick it up when he got out of his car. I was suddenly embarrassed because he even brought it here to me.
• "Thank you," I answered and I went to the sink to wash my hands first.
• "Welcome, what are you going to cook? It looks delicious."
• I heard Nicko say and looked at my sliced carrots and potatoes.
• "I cook menudo, what do you want? It's just coffee here. I haven't been able to buy groceries yet." I said but instead of Nicko answering I was surprised when Nicko touched my neck and he turned my face to him. Confused I looked at him.
• "Don't look back and move." He said softly.
• I'm surprised because I don't know what he's up to, I'm still a little confused because our faces are so close to each other. I noticed that he seemed to be looking at someone at the door.
• My mind screamed because his face was so close to mine and if anyone saw us now they would think we were kissing. Until I hear the sound of the glass and has fallen. I suddenly looked behind me and saw only Kobe's back as he walked out the door.
• "I know it's delicious so I'll eat here later," Nicko said smiling and walked out of the kitchen.
• I was confused and suddenly sat down.
• Kobe saw? He might think Nicko and I were kissing. But he didn't kiss me, why did he do that, Nicko?
