Behind the Curtains: A Tale of Hidden Emotions

Chapter 12

I woke up with a heavy feeling. I could barely move my body, especially my lower half. When I tried to lift myself, pain shot through me, making me almost cry out. It was excruciating.

I closed my eyes and cursed the person responsible for this, the person who nearly disabled me today. I reached out to my side, hoping she was there, but my heart sank when I found no one beside me.

Had she really left after getting what she wanted? Was she just like the character she played in our series? The thought hurt me even more. I should have known this would happen. I knew her from the beginning-her reputation as the town's most notorious playgirl celebrity, known as "Daddy Faye."

Despite all the warnings, I ignored the caution signs and ended up tripping heart-first onto the floor. Amazing.

A tear fell from the corner of my eye, followed by another, until I realized I was crying. And with that, I knew.

This was the end of it.

THE END

Kidding!

I was joking HAHAHHA. Just testing you guys 😂.

I really want to hear something from you. I keep overthinking if I was able to make you happy. Your thoughts would really help me improve my writing. Anyway, back to the story 😊.

(Ps: This is the real one)

I woke up with a heavy feeling. I could barely move my body, especially my lower half. When I tried to lift myself, pain shot through me, making me almost cry out. It was excruciating.

I closed my eyes and cursed the person responsible for this, the person who nearly disabled me today. I reached out to my side, hoping she was there, but my heart sank when I found no one beside me.

Had she really left after getting what she wanted? Was she just like the character she played in our series? The thought hurt me even more. I should have known this would happen. I knew her from the beginning-her reputation as the country's most notorious playgirl celebrity, known as "Daddy Faye."

Despite all the warnings, I ignored the caution signs and ended up tripping heart-first onto the floor. Amazing.

A tear fell from the corner of my eye, followed by another, until I realized I was crying. I was having a hard time breathing when I heard the door creak open, revealing the reason for my tears.

She was carrying a bed tray with dishes, and the aroma of food reached my nostrils instantly. She entered smiling, but the moment she saw my tear-streaked face, she rushed towards me, almost spilling everything.

She put the bed tray on the computer desk and hurried to my side. "Baby, what's wrong?" Hearing her voice made me cry even more, this time in relief. She hadn't ditched me after all.

"Hush now, baby, I'm here." She hugged me tightly, gently rubbing my back to calm me down. "Tell me what's wrong, please. Did I go too far? Are you hurt? Did I do something to upset you? Please talk to me. I promise I'll be more gentle next time, I won't push beyond your comfort zone. I'm really, really sorry, please forgive me." She pleaded repeatedly, not realizing that my tears were just born of fear.

The fear of losing her.

I hugged her back, still sobbing. I took my time to calm down and breathe. Faye reached for the water on the table and handed it to me.

"Careful," she reminded me, treating me like the most fragile glass in the world. When I composed myself, I looked at her, pouting. "I thought you left me. I thought you'd do the same thing Khun Neung did to Neung. I was afraid that after what happened last night, you'd just forget about it."

"Why would I do that to you, Yo? Khun Neung is different from Faye. Did I really play her so well that even you think I'm her now?" She tried to joke, easing the tension.

I smacked her and rolled my eyes.

She laughed and spoke again. "But seriously, you don't have to worry about me leaving you. Trust me, after you gave yourself to me, I'm sticking to you like glue. We haven't talked things through yet, but I want to assure you that I won't run away. I like you, Yoko. From the moment you entered that audition room, I had my eyes set on you. I know you're afraid, especially that I was branded by so many names by flirting with so many girls in the past, but since then I certainly said to myself that I was willing to change myself just for my future partners peace of mind. You might not believe me now, but I'll do everything to prove it. I'll court you, my baby hamster. It's okay if you're not ready to commit yet; I just want to show you my clear intentions." Her seriousness struck me. She looked at me intently, making sure I absorbed every word.

I just stared at her, unable to grasp a single word to utter. "I don't know what to say," I whispered.

"You don't have to say anything, just let me stay by your side. That's more than enough for me." She smiled and motioned to the food. "So for now, you should eat and get ready for the next round."

My eyes widened at her words. "FAYE MALISORN!" I shouted, earning a hearty laugh from her.

"I was kidding! I brought medicine for you to ease the pain. I'm really sorry for being rough." I rolled my eyes and did as I was told.

"After you finish your meal, I'll help you take a bath." I was about to protest when she cut me off. "No, you don't have to be shy. Do you want me to remind you how many times I-" I covered her mouth to stop her from spouting nonsense.

She's so annoying!

When I finished lightly punching her, I hugged her tightly and cried again.

She consoled me, hugging and gently rubbing my back. Faye insisted on feeding me, saying it was her way of making up for the pain she caused.

When I was done eating, Faye cleaned everything up. I watched her as she meticulously picked up every tiny smudge on the bed tray.

I bit my lip, remembering how those sinful fingers had moved inside me last night. 'Goodness, Yoko, you're becoming more of a pervert each passing day!' It wasn't my fault; it was Faye's fault for making me this way. Hmph!

"Why are you sulking, babe?" she asked, carrying the utensils. I hadn't noticed she was done cleaning. "Oh, don't pout your lips like that; it makes me want to taste them again. You're still sore, so I must behave." Redness immediately spread across my face.

"You're unbelievable," I muttered, trying to hide my embarrassment by rolling my eyes. I heard her hearty laugh once again before she headed to the door.

"I'll just wash these, then I'll get your bath ready." She smiled and walked out.

She became gentler after last night. I couldn't believe I doubted her. Well, you can't blame me; nothing about our situation was clear. Especially our feelings. She confessed that she liked me, but it was different from what I felt. I loved her already, and I wanted to be sure she felt the same before I confessed.

Besides, we weren't rushing things.

'Oh really now? You're not rushing, but you already opened your legs for her?'

Oh, shut up, mind!

I know you get what I mean.

Not long after, the door opened again, revealing the first woman I had let into my life. She was really perfect in every way, the real epitome of beauty.

"Let's take a bath, babe." I reached out my arm, acting like a child. There was no use hiding myself from her anyway; she had already seen it all.

At this moment, I knew exactly what I wanted and needed.

It was to be with her. The future was still uncertain, but I was willing to take this risk for her.

I was down bad.
