Shouldn't Have Kissed You.

chapter 15

Dedicated to @Alpihs369shree

Maya kept her mouth closed all the while. She could see the fuming fire from Kimberly's eyes and she rather stayed quiet. Wait, when has she ever talked back anyway? She moved her eyes from Kimberly to Chris'. He looked confused from what she could see.

Yes, he was confused. And she did understand why. All the while he thought he was with the love of his life but it was her. Jezebel. As he loved to call her. Maybe she deserved the name after all. Wasn't that what the real Jezebel from the Bible did? Taking what wasn't hers?

The only difference with her and the Jezebel from the Bible was that, she took someone's boyfriend. While the Jezebel from the Bible encouraged her husband to take the land that never belonged to them. Hope those who know the story know what I'm talking about.

But I'm no selfish.

Maya tried to convince herself. Of course, she wasn't selfish. She had tried to push him away. Tried to tell him that she wasn't Kimberly but all he kept on doing was to tell her not to fight it. It wasn't fair on her side. It wasn't even entirely her fault.

I mean, she was supposed to be there in the first place. Maya had been invited to dinner by her new friend after three days of turning him down. It was the guy that she met four days ago. The arrogant bastard who seemed to follow her everywhere she went making it seem like a conside. 

Maybe it was but Maya gave it a 0.99% of conceded. So in order for him to stop following her around, she had accepted his dinner date. And that's why she was there earlier. To compose herself with the breeze that was at the balcony.

She needed to come her nerves down since the last time she had done that was years ago. Yes, when she was in college with her long time crush that turned out to be a disaster. So, her being early was a way to calm herself down and also to avoid someone.

Of course, it was Chris. She had stayed three days away from him and she hadn't planned to show her face till their last day of the 'honeymoon'. At least that was her plan. But now, here he was, standing in front of her like he just landed from another planet.

She didn't know why, but whatever he wore, made him look handsome every time. Maya looked deep into his eyes to such for something. His face wore confusion but his eyes said something else. Something different from confusion and surprise. If only she could place it.

But no, it was hard for her. Maybe it's just that he had changed for those three days. I mean, one changes from one mood to another within a second. Then, what was three days to him? Besides, he was with his love of life.

And with her pretending to be always asleep when she heard him every night open the door after midnight wasn't easy. She was his wife, and she was obliged to wait till her husband came home for her to sleep. So, she did that without letting him know she was always worried. Worried that something bad might happen while he was out there.

Maya shifted her weight to the left leg. It seemed like forever since Kimberly had stepped outside and found them kissing. That kiss. She fought the barge to place her hand on her lips. It was just like the first time they kissed. On his stage, his show and in front of his funs.

Little did they know that it would cost their happiness. Yet, here they were making the same mistake and this time, it was the jealous girlfriend who found them. It's like their kissing was a curse to them. They were never made to be and she just knew it. He was Kimberly's while she, she was destined to her patients.

"How dare you, bitch?" Kimberly came towards her shouting at her.

Maya hadn't even heard her foot steps despite the high heels she wore. To her, Kimberly was standing at the door way and in a spilt of a second, she in front of her slapping her right cheek hard.
