I WISH I WAS THE NERD: the girl at the back

8th CHAPTER

Xena...

Would I just sit here for hours doing nothing? I hope he gave me something to do. Well taking a rest for few days was not bad either.

I'm scanning my phone.. should I call dad? Its been a month, he's been sending email everyday saying to call him if I have time. But I only replied to him that I'm busy. Even in my old age he is always worried about me.

I accidentally touch the wrong icon. The 'gallery'. I saw the picture of my ex fiance. *sigh. I'm feeling so dejected looking at it. I deleted them one by one until there is nothing left. After I deleted them all I got a notification, its an email. And its from Prince its been so long since I heard from him.

[ YOU ARE GETTING BUSY THIS WEEK??!! I can't call on your mobile! I have to check on him first! ]

Check on him? Is he my father? I'm out of the country so obviously my previous number won't work here.

[ you don't have to check on him. The wedding is canceled. ]

[ why? ]

[ he cheated.]
Does that considered cheating? He just found his true live and their kid. And rather than running away or keeping it a secret he told me the truth.

[ Are you alright? I'm going there and kill that guy. ]
What?! Ever since the incident he's been so overprotective of me.

[ haha nice joke. ]

[ I'm not kidding. ]
It was just a massage but I feel like he is dead serious.

[ I'm out of the country. I had a nice offer of a job here. Thanks to him I don't have to miss this chance. HAHA ]

[ Where? ]
where? Does he really need to ask where?

I don't wanna tell him I'm here in the same country where he is. I'm sure he will come and see me asap. Prince already gave me too much of his time. And I don't wanna bother him anymore. And now he is with someone he loves. I feel ashamed to both of them.

[ in H*********, ] I gave him some random country. [ I like it here. My co.workers are all nice. They treat me well and the job is very easy. And my boss is so kind, very very kind.]
What a lie.

[ really? Then that's a relief. To be honest I'm very busy right now but I still wanna have a little time with you. I don't wanna let my little sister having a hard time. But knowing you are doing fine even though that happens lessen my worry. Maybe next year I will let you meet my fiance and lets have a small vacation together.]

That's a relief for me.

[ I will look forward for that. Next year is super fine ]
Any year is fine just not now.

" *BANG!!! " someone smashes the table. I got startled that I almost throw my phone.

I inhaled a lot of air when I saw who is it.

"What time do you think it is?" He said very pissed.

Oh no the meeting!! Does an hour passed already??

"I.. I'm very sorry..."

"That's the only thing I asked you to do. Useless."

Being called useless stomp on my pride. I can't say anything cause it is really my fault. I have no excuse.

He walk away while my head on low.

"What are you still standing there??"

I'm confused. Is he waiting for me to follow him?

"Lets go."

I'm not fired yet. Thank god.
