Love Ain't My Game [[✔️✔️COMPLETED✔️✔️]]

Chapter 9

Mrs. Kim walks into my office with another person. I look up at that person. Those piercing eyes! I recognize them at instant. That face I never wanted to see again. I recognize the person standing next to Mrs. Kim. My heart beats as if about to burst. My childhood flashes in my head. Those days at school. How my highschool life was completely ruined. I still remember the day I got hurt by the same person. The day of my 16th birthday. Everything plays in my head like a movie. I feel dizzy. I grab a glass of water from my table and instruct Mrs. Kim and the person she brought with her to sit across the table.

It was her : Charissa.

That bitch ! Why the hell is she here? Is she Mrs. Kim's daughter? Ruining my teenage wasn't enough that she came to my office to ruin my adulthood too? I so hate this bitch. Stealing Kevin from me and here she is now. Well, at least I'm the powerful person here.

As I curse Charissa under my breath, Mrs. Kim breaks the silence:

"This is my son's love he went mad for. Of course, he didn't agree to come so I brought her along. She knows more about him than I do"

She looks at me with hopeful eyes. I understand her pain. Her desire to hear her son call her mother. Her hope that I can help her son get better. Well, I take extra charges for more than two visits. I don't think this case will end here. So it's alright.

Charissa looks at me. She doesn't recognize me at all. I can say that just by her looks. She's trying to remember if she saw me anywhere. Little did she know I'm the same old nerd at school she used to copy notes from. And stole my boy !

"Would you stay outside for a little while, Mrs. Kim? I think I'd like to have some alone talk with Cha-", I stop midway from saying her name after I realize that she hasn't even told her name yet "uh- your son's closest person"

"Yes, yes sure" she says and gets up from the chair, looks at Charissa, pats on her back and says "be honest, okay?"

Charissa just nods. Why the fuck is she being so silent? I can't stand it.

As soon as Mrs. Kim is out of the room, I look at Charissa straight in the eyes and inspect her face before I ask "So let me hear your part of the story now? ".

She looks at me nervously and starts her story:-

I met him at university after high school. I didn't really have friends except him and he was kind to me so I was really fond of him. We started sitting together at class, during lunch and became best friends before we even realized it. He helped me with projects and I couldn't stop falling for him. He too, started liking me but I didn't know. I never confessed my feelings to him. Soon enough, he started getting along with his friends and we barely talked. And then one day, out of the blue, he came up to me and said that he loved me. I didn't understand. He wasn't talking to me for months and he suddenly confessed his feelings for me which I thought were all lies. I just stared at him blank-faced and walked away without speaking a word. Maybe that hit him hard. He came up to me everyday and told me things I'd never expected. I finally accepted that his feelings were true and gave him a chance.

On our first date, instead of talking about love and us, he forced me to a french kiss that I didn't want on a first date. I wanted to talk about us and our love. But he didn't. I failed to understand his motive. After that, time after time, he forced me into things I had never thought of. Things that made me puke. One day, he invited me for dinner. But his parents weren't home. His brother was, but his brother too, had called his girl home. I was scared. He took me to his room and forced himself on me. He pushed me and pressed me hard against the bed. As I screamed, he laughed. Finally, he forced himself unto me. I was literally raped by my boyfriend. He gave me bruises all over my body that took longer to heal than anything. After a month, I found out I was pregnant. I told him. He was happy. He wanted to keep the baby but wasn't ready to marry me. So I just aborted the child without letting him know. I didn't want to have something that didn't make me happy. Perhaps the abortion made him go crazy. He started acting all nuts after he found out what I had done. I broke up with him saying that I didn't want to stay with a psycopath. That's how it started. He's gotten worse day by day after that. I've tried a lot to talk to him after his mom requested but he wouldn't listen.

She ends the story with tears rolling down her cheeks, bringing along some of her mascara with it. She starts sobbing. I hand her some tissue papers and wait until she's done with the breakdown. I feel sorry for her.

"Hmm. It seems that his brain already had a loose screw ever since the day he confessed to you. He was depressed from the beginning. You just didn't realize it" , I solved the puzzle to her crazy boyfriend after learning the story from her perspective. Mrs. Kim had told me a different side of the story from what she knew. It turns out, she didn't know anything at all.

"Umm.. Kim doesn't know about the abortion" , she informs me.

"I know that. If she knew, she would've told me earlier. I know exactly what to do now" , I smirk as an evil idea flows through my mind.

I call Mrs. Kim back in. First of all, I tell her that her son was already in depression before he was with her. Then, I tell her about the abortion.

She looks at me in shock. Then at Charissa. Then she starts sobbing and I hand her some tissues to wipe the tears. She feels guilty for Charissa. It is so clear through her face. Charissa hugs her tight and whispers it's okay into her ear.

"Okay. I'll give you some alone time to think and if you want to continue the therapy, please go to the reception and select a package and make a one time payment for as long as you choose", I feel bad talking about money at such time but that's how I have to earn my livelihood.

"I'd like to talk to Charissa for a moment, please", I say just when they get up from their chairs. Charissa widens her eyes at me as to how I know her name. Mrs. Kim nods and leaves the room. And Charissa takes her seat.
