Sweet Rivalry : From Bitter Enemies To Sweet Lovers (BXB)

22- Two faced

The next day, I was sitting in the bustling canteen, my eyes fixated on the food laid out on my plate.

But just as I was lost in my thoughts, Tim suddenly appeared and took a seat right in front of me. The vibrant chatter and clattering of plates seemed to fade into the background as I focused on him.

His presence alone brought a sense of discomfort to me. I was scared of him creating a scene there.

He held my hand carefully and said,

Tim: Babe I'm sorry for my behaviour. I was kinda rude yesterday. I mean I was very much rude and I apologise for that. I hope you can understand.

I was too stunned to speak. I was thinking how can a person act like two different person. He was shouting at me yesterday and look at him today, he is acting all sweet and nice today.

I can't understand his true intentions.
I wondered as Tim waited for my answer. He slided out a chocolate and continued,

Tim: Take this. You are as sweet as chocolate I know that from my heart. I know you'll not throw fits for long time. I know you love me, right babe?

I looked at his eyes as they pierced right into me. I panicked as I stuttered,

Me: Ye-Yes I love you.

Tim smiled and stood up to leave.

Tim: Okay babe bye. Eat well. Muah!

I forced a smile on my lips as I thought.

Is he double faced or am I thinking too much.

.........

Before the school dispersal bell ringing Tim texted me,

Tim: Let's meet in the washroom again today.

I realised he would do the same thing again to me. So, I resisted,

Me: Actually I need to go home early today. I have some urgent stuff to do.

Tim: Can't a boyfriend makeout with his boyfriend? You would make me sad by not coming here.

I thought and thought over and over again.

Then Nathan entered and wrapped his hands around my neck.

Nathan: Let's go and chill today. (Whispers) Us two.

It's been so long since we two hanged out. So I decided to go out with Nathan and left Tim's text unanswered.

As soon as the dispersal bell rang we left the school. I had lunch over Nathan's. We watched Netflix ate instant noodles and had fun.

It was enjoyable until Nathan received a text from Nora.

Nora: Tim is angry with Neo. He is throwing tantrums here and there. Tell him to meet him at the park near the street.

Nathan read the text and conveyed me the message. I was so anxious when I got to know I had to face him.

Nathan forcefully took me to the park to meet him. As Nora made a promise with him.

When I reached the park Tim was looking all furious. He approached me and shook me from my Shoulders.

Tim: What the hell you can't obey your boyfriend??

Me: I told you I had some stuffs to do.

Tim: But you should think about your boyfriend's feelings first!!! You can't be selfish Neo.

Me: I'm not being one. I know you were asking me to come because you was feeling all horny.

I rolled my eyes as he suddenly pushed me away.

Tim: If I'm feeling horny isn't it your duty to satisfy me? That's what a boyfriend should do!

Me: It isn't my duty to satisfy your lust. Can't you see I'm uncomfortable.

He stood near me not leaving air to pass by and said,

Tim: Then be comfortable with it. Is this how you are gonna act after our marriage? This isn't right babe. You should behave properly.

Me: I don't want to marry you.

Tim: What did you say?? You cannot break your promise.

Me: I don't want to fulfill any of my promises.

Tim: Don't forget you are worthless. You should be happy that I treat you all good. In exchange I just want token of appreciation. You should just please me.

Thoughts filled my head,

Well yes he do treat me better than my family I guess... At least he is not like my father who doesn't want to accept me. He at least wants to accept me. He just wants my body to fulfill his desire. Maybe I can do that...

Tim's words made me come out of my thoughts he said,

Tim: Listen, let's be clear if you can't do these things I don't want you anymore. Our relationship would be complicated if you'll keep creating a wall between us.

Me: No- No.

Tim: If you love me you should prove it. Don't deny this and accept it. If you can't do this then I'm done with you.

It was like a thunderstorm I didn't want to be abandoned by Tim too. I had already lost my close friends, my family wants to kick me out, now Tim is saying he doesn't want me anymore.... I was puzzled.

Tim: You asked me what would I care if you were to disappear. So, my answer is; if you'll act like this I do want you to disappear from my life.

My head was in pain... So much pain. I decided to run away. I gathered all my strength and ranaway to reach my home.

My head went black my heart was beating fast. I wasn't able to breath properly. The air in my chest clogged. I locked myself in room.

I do not want this. He can't do this to me. I'm worthless if I can't satisfy him. He loves me.. and I can't proof my love to him by doing this... I'm truly worthless. I should maybe just disappear.

Just like everyone wants me to.... Noah will take care of father and mother. They don't care about me. It's easy to do thing this way I guess. After all they all wanted me to die. But Tim......

I love him, yes. I guess it's just my brain is overreacting. But today I, I hurted his feelings too.
