Two Worlds Apart

Chapter 114

Courtney's POV•

Even with a new day, I couldn't get over the issue of yesterday.

I couldn't sleep, I haven't been able to eat and I've been so restless. I was so scared to tell Eric about Natalie yesterday, but he was somehow able to walk in on us.

How did we not hear him walk in?

I knew the moment I accepted I still had feelings for him, something bad was going to happen....and it did.

Somehow, I couldn't help but think that this whole thing might just be for the best....but I was still so restless because of it.

I've been out of the house for over two hours now and I haven't been to get my mind to rest.

The wind brushes against my face gently, creating a little bit of relief while I strolled, but my mind can't help but wonder back to the torn expression on his face.

I take in some air, letting it out and calming my nerves. I head towards a cafe when a car starts horning at me.

Who on earth....

I stop in front of the cafe door, staring at the black Toyota packing beside the door. The door of the car opens up Miss Selena steps out

Lovely

She locks the door, adjusting her black leather bag on her wrist and her eyes fixed on me.

She comes to a stop right in front of me "mind if I join you?"

~°~

There was this awkward silence that filled the air. I only take small sips from my coffee, my eyes fixed on the table and not Jane who was opposite me.

I hear her clear her throat which catches my attention and finally makes me look up.

She places her cup down "Miss Jones, I'm sure your surprised that I'm here"

"More curious than surprised"

She's not the first crazy person stalking me because of Eric.

"I'm sure you're aware I'm in a relationship with Eric, right?"

I raise a brow, isn't she the one Eric asked to get out of his life?

"Are you now?"

She gives a fake smile "and your presence is affecting that. I'm not one to talk too much, I just set boundaries"

I tilt my head a bit "what boundaries?"

She nods, adjusting her posture "I'm guessing you're the mystery women Eric had a thing with after Theresa, but we're both fully aware that your relationship ended a while ago. I thought you were focused on MFE, what happened?"

I fold my arms and lean back on my chair, staring at her with a netural look "I wanted to visit home, anything wrong with that?"

"Is Eric home?"

I fall quiet, the question hanging in the air.

With my eyes fixed on her, I lean towards the table, resting my arms on it "Jane, a woman with your kind of status shouldn't be doing this, you're making a fool of yourself"

She frowns "excuse me?"

"You left everything you should be doing at this moment to try to play the jealous girlfriend role for a man who clearly told you he wanted you out of his life and you think that makes sense to you?"

She keeps staring at me, leaving my question unanswered

"I'm tried of all of you trying to fight me off even when I'm clearly not in your way. If you who claim to be the girlfriend keep on fighting with one particular woman or some particular set of women for your so called boyfriend, shouldn't you be sensible enough to understand that you don't hold the same level of importance the other women do in his life?"
