Tanya's POV

"And thats how we met each other..."I said then ended it with a smile.

I already told them all the details about how me and Leo met.Well except for the crying part and heal your heart scene.Im not nuts to tell them about my feelings for Draven.

"Thats super sweet!"Kia said then giggled .

I know!I cant blame her if she thought were really together for real.Hayst!Can I immediately get out of this place?!?Ugh!

:FAST FORWARD:

After we talked,Kia got a call from Corrine saying "Im heartbroken and I need you here"Tss....I feel you girl!

I asked Corrine if she want me also to come and she agreed.Draven volunteered to drive us to Corrine's unit.Draven sat at the driver's seat while Kia sat at the shotgun seat.Yeah right!

We arrived at Corrine's condo.Draven kissed Kia while he just stared at me saying Do-The-Plan-Now.Ugh!I forgot that I have a deal with this jerk.I just nod at him.He left and Kia gave me a confused look.Tsk!I hate explaining so I just walked towards Corrine's condo.When I immediately found Corrine's room,I barged myself in and sat comfortably at her luxurious sofa.I waited for Kia to look for Corrine but I guess there's no need to do that because Corrine already showed herself.

She motioned us to sit down so we did.I faced her with a confused look.Base on her physical appearance,I can say she looks HORRIBLE!I cant blame her though...

"Uhh-Corrine,you look 100% bad.As in literally bad!What happened?"-Kia asked with a concerned look

"My cousin just stole my boyfriend from me!!!"She said fuming in anger

"Ohh!Bummer..."-I said

That must be a very unpleasant experience.I suddenly looked at Corrine.She cried and cried while sharing the whole story about her break-up.This is the reason why I tried so hard to control my feelings for Draven.It could turn Kia like this.And I know,Kia is such a good person and she doesn't deserve a heartbreak from me.

"I gave him my everything yet he's not contented.Am I not enough?!?"Corrine

She wiped her tears.Kia was just listening to her at the same time,hugging her.While,I just excused myself and went to the kitchen go bring some water for Kia.I just realized something,I should not let my feelings reign in my system.In this world,dont let your emotion take control all over your system because you may not realize that it can make you turn horrible.

"Corrine,try your best to move on!You gotta wake up!"

I tried my best to hide my anger.I dont want them to look like this way.I want whats best for them.Kia looked at me with sad eyes.I raised my brow.

"You turned into a different person,Tanya!Youre not the same Tanya who understands her friend"

Kia's words run all over my system.My hands went shaking and after a split of seconds my hand went to her face giving her a very hard slap. After I did that,I cried hard infront of them.This is my first time showing them how I really feel.She has no rights to judge me!

"You have no rights to judge!YOU ARE JUST MY FRIEND!So shut up!"

After saying those words,I left them.I went to the parking lot and called my driver to fetch me.I badly need Leo's presence but I dont want to disturb him.His life doesnt revolve only around me,he has a company to run and a family to be taken care .I need to practice myself to be strong.After all,at the end of the day all the people around me will just leave me alone being screwed up.

Few minutes passed,my driver came and I immediately went inside the car.I feel like Im being suffocated.I told my driver to drive me home.He just nodded and turned on the radio inside the car.I just stayed quiet.I suddenly realized that all I did was just too emotional!!Ugh!They might think something about me.Geez!I sent a message to Kia saying...

TO: Kia Bitch

Sorry about what happened.I was just too emotional because of the problems Im facing on right now.I just need it to let it out....

After messaging Kia,my driver knocked and told me that were here at our house.This place always reminds me that Im not part of this family.Im just their adopted child or should I say a replacement for my sister.

I went inside and greeted Mom and Dad who was busy on each of their laptops.Steph saw me and she smiled.I smiled her too and immediately climbed the stairs to get some rest.I was about to sleep when my phone suddenly beeped. I checked it and saw Draven 's message:

FROM: Draven crushyyy~

I think its okay to make his nickname like that and he cant see it anyway. I read his message:

FROM: Draven crushyyy~

Are you busy tomorrow?

I smiled after reading his message.My heart began wild and it felt good.It made me forget all the problems I have.OMG~ Is he asking me out?Gosh!

TO: Draven crushyyy~

Yes!Why?

Out of excitement and happiness,thats the only word I can answer him.Gosh!Im not ready for this!!!

FROM: Draven crushyyy~

I just need you to help me surprise Kia <3

Ouch!I thought.... Ugh!I assumed!!!My smile suddenly disappeared.What am I thinking?!? I just told him that lets meet tomorrow after class at the cafe near our school.He agreed and even insisted to fetch me but I disagreed because some people might misunderstood it.

I sighed.Destiny is really playing around with me!I gotta GUARD MY HEART....
