New chapter! Enjoy!
CHAPTER 7- MEETING THE JERK
It was Sunday afternoon when I finally saw Michelle who's surprisingly dressed in pink crop top, denim shorts and a pair of gladiator sandals, I thought she only wears skinny jeans. She was sat at the corner, glancing at her watch every five seconds as if waiting for someone to arrive.
I, on the other hand, was looking for something to eat as I spotted Romero's Diner where Michelle was, and decided to walk in. I sat at the far too end of the restaurant, not wanting Michelle to notice me, near the trashbin, it doesn't smell though.
The bell suddenly rang, signaling that a new customer has arrived when the waiter left after placing my order, which consists of rice, a glass of water and chicken inasal, their best seller.
I looked at the guy's appearance, around 6'5" tall, messy brown hair, a navy blue button up shirt, and a washed up jeans matched with his black snickers. I could see his toned body, a sign that he's working out.
He went straight to the table where Michelle sits and her frown magically fades and a smile spread through her face. She stood up and kissed the guy, I felt something when she did that, and the guy did the same gesture. After their pda moment, they both sit facing each other, the guy's back at me.
Michelle called the waiter and told their orders, the guy (her boyfriend, I guess) was saying something I barely heard to the waiter, and after that he left with a sour face.
I was enjoying my food, savouring every bits of it, licking my fingers in the process, when I heard a shattering sound that's obviously came from Michelle's table. Her boyfriend was throwing the platters on the floor making other customers wince at the sound. He's yelling at the waiter, but I didn't catch what he said. Next thing I know, the guy grabbed the waiter's collar and punched him square in the face.
Michelle gasped at what she saw, and so the other people inside. She pulled her boyfriend away to the bleeding waiter and left a few cash in the table, apologizing to the poor guy for her boyfriend's behaviour as she caught sight of me.
"Michelle, c'mon! You don't want me to make another scene, now do you?" Jerky said, making me feel bad for her. Michelle doesn't deserve a guy like him. Every girl should be treated well, like a princess.
Says the guy who treated her girlfriend right.
I did treat her right!
Oh yeah, that's why she left and picked your friend over you.
Damn you, shut up! I don't need your lecture right now.

Rain was pouring hard that night when I received a message from Chloe.
Meet you at Kapeng Barako, 8am tomorrow. I'll tell you all the details about the show you are going to xx -Chloe
Kapeng Barako is the coffee shop Michelle's been working as barista and the same shop where Chloe and I had a conversation after our break-up, six months ago.
She put an 'xx' at the end of her message. We used to do that before, adding 'x', 'xx', or 'xoxo' in our every text. But we're not together now, why is she still doing that?
Does she somehow misses me?
Does she still love me?
Should I come?
Should I listen to Nate not to spend time with her?
Why all of a sudden she decided to show up?
Why all of a sudden she wants me back in her life again?
Is this for good?
Or she came back to hurt me again?
These questions keep resounding my head, it didn't let me sleep. By 2am I decided to go outside, hang in the club. I tried waking up Nate who's sleeping oh so peacefully on the mattress, but he didn't even bulge. He sleeps like a dead. So I let him sleep, walking on my own isn't that scary, I guess.
The streets were dark, silent and creepy. I was literally running when I accidentally ran into something hard that made me stumble back.
"Move outta my way!"
So the hard thing can speak, huh?
"I said move outta my way!" This time I looked up and saw that it's a human. A guy actually, but he's not an ordinary guy.
In front of me was stood a masculine guy, already drunk with a girl that's clinging onto him.
"Jerky!?"
The word accidentally slipped off my mouth, but I'm not going to take it back.
"Yyyyyoooou caaaaalled meeee wha-whaaat?" He slurred, making the girl next to him laugh.
"Bagon, c'mon. I want to get laid." The girl said bluntly. What the fuck! She's not that eager, huh.
Bagon pats my shoulder as he and his girl walked past me. "What style do you want babe?" I heard him say to the blonde girl as he grabbed her butt.
Bagon is his name, then.
He's cheating on Michelle.
Jerky suits him perfectly fine.
