Bad Girl (On-going)

Chapter 2 (Flashbacks)

"Vegetable salad, please." The cashier glared at me for a while before getting my order.

After a few minutes of waiting, a plate of vegetable salad was served. After paying for it, I quickly took an empty seat.

I was enjoying my snacks when a memory from the past played in my mind...

At that time, I was with Terence, my ex-boyfriend. We were once sweet but when that day came, the day I realized everything, I regretted.

"I love you, babe."

Before I could utter a word, he sealed my mouth with a kiss, a long and a passionate one. That kiss of his always made me paralyzed and hyperventilated. The only thing that I could do was to hold him tight and feel every single moment.

I thought he was perfect for me and so was our relationship. I thought it would last for another two years and who knows, it might be forever.

Until one day... he came into my old condo unit at the middle of the night.

"Deborah... I--

He was the one who cut himself off.

He held my wrist and pinned me on the wall. I was about to say something when he kissed me torridly. I tried to push him, but he didn't let me go.

His touch made my heart thud, until I found myself drowning. After taking off his shirt, he completely untied the bathrobe—the only thing wrapped around my body.

Shame showered upon me when I caught him staring at my body wearing two-piece.

After a while, he smiled and asked, "You love me, right?"

I looked at him and nodded to cover up his doubt.

He smiled again. Then he carried me and laid me down in bed. I was ready to surrender everything to him, if it meant my love.

I saw him remove his remaining clothes, until he was entirely naked. He laid down and kissed every spot of my body as we were both panting and moaning our hearts out, feeling every single touch. It was one of the most perfect time of my life. I was smiling all throughout the day as we were lying down in bed, naked.

I thought I would wake up in bed next to him but when morning came, disappointment filled me when I didn't see Terence nor texts, nor calls from him. Nevertheless, I still managed to grin widely as I remembered everything that happened. Back then, I didn't feel a single regret because Terence was so special and I loved him so much.

The day after, I saw him at a restaurant and he was laughing with another girl. I came in and greeted him,

"Babe, I miss you."

I was going to kiss him on the cheek when he rudely rejected it.

"What are you doing here?" He said, trying not to sound loud in front of many people.

I looked at the girl and smiled, but she just rolled her eyes. When I turned back to Terence, he tightly held my wrist and pulled me outside. Just then, I felt my wrist ache. Upon arriving outside, he then let go and turned to me.

"Damn! Aren't you going to answer me?! I said, what are you doing here?!"

After hearing those hurting words from him, I felt a wet and a cold thing at the side of my eye and realized it was a tear. I tried my best to hold it back so as not to let it flow. Why is he acting strange so suddenly? That question banged in my mind.

"T-Terence, what are you t-talking about?" I stuttered and looked at him with wide, confused eyes.

"Don't act like a stupid one, Deborah. Isn't it obvious that it's over between us?"
