Hate To Love You: From Enemies To Lovers

Ch. 40 | Not Into Him Anymore

"Oh, Hello. Do you know me?" I asked him.

"Tch." He giggled. "You already forgot who I am? It's just days since we first met. And I also dm'ed you on Instagram!"

"Oh, Max!" I said. "I'm sorry, I didn't recognize you. It's just-"

"You're busy with something? Because you just went to the library just now."

"Oh. Kind of." I awkwardly smiled.

"I didn't know you already have a boyfriend. I didn't notice it, Because you are always with your friends instead of your boy. And I never saw him with you." He said.

Almost forgot, Antaios replied to his Instagram messages.

"Oh, It's because he's always busy. And he's introverted." I lied.

"Oh, really? Unlucky you. Isn't it boring to date an introverted guy?"

I was speechless for a second. Having no idea of what I lie I will come up next.

"Did I offend you? Sorry. Frankly speaking." He said.

I hate this guy. He's too shameless. How can he call an introvert 'boring'? Should I stay away from him? But how? Changing schools? No. That's too hard to do.

"I should go now. I'm sorry, I have some stuff to do." I walked away, but he held my hand.

"Why leave so soon? Wanna grab lunch?" He offered.

"Will you-"

"What are you doing!?" Harry hit his hand so he'll release me. "She said she's busy. Don't bother her."

What's wrong with me?! Why is my heart beating like this?!

"Oh, You must be her boyfriend. I'm sorry for bothering your girlfriend. I sincerely apologize."

"No-"

"You better not." Harry glared at him. "Let's go, Selena."

While we're walking on the pathway, an unusual beat enters my heart. As I look into Harry's Face, I started to recall those times that i...

fell in love with him.

He grabbed my wrist and went away from Max. But my heart stopped for a while when he said something. But, It's not like the heartbeat when I still like him. It's different.

"Hey, Selena. Let's stop here. Remember that if he keeps hitting on you, try not to say something and try to avoid him. I know him. He's popular for being a jerk here. He likes playing with women. Keep my word."

"Oh. Sure! I think we need to separate ways now. Bye then!" I waved at him and walked away.

But I guess, I'm not into him anymore.

As I was walking through the main gate, My phone rang. So I grabbed it and answered.

"Selena! Come quick if you aren't doing anything! Jace got promoted and it looks like we're having a feast here!" It was Samuel.

"Sure. Since I don't have anything to do here." I replied.

He hanged up. While I walked faster and faster to get to the bus stop. Seems like we're having some feast there! That's nice. It would help me cheer up.

After some minutes, I arrived at the house. Like they say, It's a feast. Most of Jace's colleagues we're there. Our house turned into a bar. How interesting!

I entered our house using the back door. It's pretty embarrassing if I entered the front door, I don't like people looking at my disgusting looks.

"Finally, Selena! You need to wash the plates!"
