Desiree sat on the couch in jealousy watching her best friend Chantel and Rakim talk and cuddle with each other.
It was Chantel's birthday and Rakim wanted to do something special for her so he took her and a couple of their friends to Bora Bora to celebrate her birthday.
Desiree walked up towards the kissing couple holding her present.
"This is for you Chantel." She mumbled putting on a forced smile. She just wanted to get out of here as soon as possible.
She hated seeing Rakim and Chantel together it hurted her heart a lot.
"Thank you so much I love you." She squealed pulling her into a tight hug.
Rakim who was standing behind her, locked eyes with Desiree for a few seconds which felt like minutes.
Somewhere in his eyes Desiree hoped that there was at least an ounce worth of feelings there for her.
She pulled away from the hug putting on a genuine smile she didn't want to look like she didn't care she was happy for them wasn't she?
But deep down she wasn't. The person that was supposed to be kissing Rakim was her.
Desiree and Rakim had a complicated relationship. They were lovers way before he started dating Chantel but I guess luck wasn't on their side this time.
Rakim was like a soulmate to her they've known each other ever since they were eight.
Desiree wanted to keep a man like Rakim a secret. He was good looking, popular and he obviously got all the girls.
So when Rakim asked her out, she wanted to keep that a secret from everyone even her best friend.
She went back to her seat frowning. She sighed and leaned back on the couch closing her eyes.
"You good?" Tyler asked her furrowing his brows.
Desiree opened one of her eyes turning it towards him sighing lightly.
"Yeah my head just hurts." Desiree replied putting her hand on her forehead.
She felt tears filling her eyes and they were about to fall any second so she had to leave as soon as possible before something happens.
"I'm going back to my room I'm tired." Desiree replied standing up.
She looked at Rakim one last time before going back into the hotel.
She unlocked the door and immediately walked into the bathroom with tears stinging her eyes.
"Fuck." She mumbled to herself wiping her eyes.
She looked at the smudged eyeliner on her eye. Grabbing the tissue and wetting it attempting to wipe it off but it only made things worse.
"Fuck sake." Desiree grunted to herself covering her face with her hands. She took a couple deep breaths trying to calm herself down.
