Through The Lens of ❤️ [Completed]

Jes

I went to my car, getting into it but unable to drive off. I kept hitting at my steering wheel in anger and just yelled out loud!

A couple of minutes later, I saw Net coming out of his studio, looking all forlorn and down. The sight of him looking so despondent tore at my heart. I quickly got out of the car and ran to him. I held onto his hand, and he looked up at me. His eyes were full of tears that were threatening to spill at any moment.

"Net..."

"What do I do now? They kicked me out of the show. I didn't even do anything."

"All these happened because of me. Because of that one person I dated.. I will do anything it takes to clear your name. I promise I will get you back on set, ok?'

Net looked at me, not saying a word. I badly wanted to hug him but knew it would get us into further trouble here. I offered to send him home but he rejected me, saying he wanted to get some quiet time. I nodded, reluctantly letting go of his hand.

I watched as he went off. I turned and started walking back towards my car when I saw Kyunn standing there. That fucking bitch! I went up to her and raised my hand ready to strike her when she just smirked at me.

"Try. Go ahead. Smack me. Then it makes it just easier for Net to be blamed even more."

I nearly screamed as I my hand down. "Why are you doing this?! He didn't even do anything. Did you have to lie like this! What must I do for you to stop targeting Net?"

"Be with me, and I will stop making life difficult for him. I will let everyone know it was a false alarm of a pregnancy. I just say that I used Net's name because I was terribly afraid of losing you. I know how to play the perfect downtrodden girl down in her dumps in love but thankfully rescued by her one true love."

"I can't..I cant do that. I.. I don't.. I like him too much to do this. I don't love you. I love him."

"Unless you want your love to hurt him, then you know best."

With that, Kyunn just strode off. I gripped my hands tightly, not knowing what to do. My tears came down against my better will and I just punched at my car in anger. Just then I got a call from Bible who asked me if everything was ok and said that due to personal reasons, Net was being dropped from the show and Phuwin has been asked to take on that role. The managers were discussing over this and he had overheard it as he was heading out. I cried bitterly as I filled him in on what happened and he was stunned. He just asked me on what I was going to do. I kept very quiet for a long bit before finally muttering that I would do anything to protect Net.

Bible groaned as he knew what I meant. He tried very desperately to talk me out of it but I just hung up the phone. I went home, the news having reached home too. My parents were shocked and asked me on what happened. I finally confessed the truth to them, about Kyunn, my developing feelings for Net and the fiasco at work. My dad just looked at me silently and then he muttered, "Why didn't you just tell me you love Net?"

I looked at my dad stricken as I told him I was afraid of his reaction. My dad just cocked his head at me and said I shouldn't make that decision for him and then he mentioned something else that just tore my heart apart even further.

"I haven't seen you smile like how you did on your birthday in over 5 years. And any person who puts that smile on you, is deserving of you and nothing less. And will be wholeheartedly accepted by me and I could see clearly that boy was the sole reason."

I just cried bitterly. My parents and Teresa tried to comfort me that we could fight this battle for Net and myself but I knew Kyunn and how vindictive she clearly could be. I just looked up at them as I muttered, "Just know I will do anything to protect Net."

The depth of my words hit them and they tried to change my mind but I wordlessly went back to my room, texting Kyunn that I will be with her and to make things right by tomorrow or everything was off. She agreed.

The next day, a new kind of shit hit the fan. I got up at 9am, to the doorbell incessantly ringing. I went to open it, half dazed because of the very fitful and restless night I had.

I looked up to see Net glaring at me.

"What did you do, Jes?"

I just looked at him as my tears came down again.

"Just call me P. It's for the best."
