Sitting comfortably on my couch, I switched on the tv and eat up an ice cream. I am living alone on my apartment. My parents are separated and both have their own familiesㅡbut I am the original, the first.
Jeez! Why am I thinking about those stuff? Anyway, I am also worried about my mom, I heard that she had a nagging husbandㅡa very cruel one.
I roll my eyes and focus on watching the tv. Some scene caught my attention.
A scene where the couple are breaking up. Why am I always encountering such a scene? Is there any message for me? Why so? It's so ridiculous!
I wonder if I really am miserable like this girl. Crying so hard every now and then. It hits me. I hate it! I hate how the girl pleads for her ex boyfriend's attention when she did everything for him!
I hate how she was blinded by her love. I hate how she made a fool of herself! Is that what love made to people? Is it really necessary to feel the pain when you love? There are a lot of questions I have in mind. But neither of my questions have I answer. The only thing I know is that I am left. I'm alone.
I was watching tv when someone knocked the door. Seriously? I thought. I head for the door and lazily opened it.
"Hi." My eyes widen in surprise. Why is he here?!
"Dave?"
"Yup." He happily replied.
"What the hell are you doing here?" I asked furiously.
"Can't you just let me in?" I shake my head.
"You're not welcome." I was about to close the door when he insert his foot in between.
"I'm coming in." He said and pushed the door. Jeez! He's really strong.
His muscular body fits him well. I suddenly remember when girls are so envy to me back when we're still together. Perhaps, those number of girls dying for him have multiplied. He really had grown so much.
He sat on the couch comfortably, removes his coat and untie his necktie. That was just. . . beyond sexy. He has become sexier. He's truly a man now.
"Come!" He winked. Why is he acting this way?! "Come here, Athena."
I swallow hard. He just call me with my name. I really have missed him.
He tap the couch which is unoccupied, obviously beside him and said, "Can you give me a massage?" He asks playfully.
My head spin with what he said. Damn! After all that he's done to me?! I don't know if I am being overly dramatic, bitter, or overreactingㅡor maybe I amㅡbut asking me such after a dissolved gap between us is just absurd!
I closed my eyes tight and shut the door angrily.
