Tul's POV 

The sous chef definitely outdid himself with his Cajun Buttered Shrimp Tacos.

I am a seafood lover and I usually prefer to eat fish more than any other seafood like crabs, or shrimp or lobster but this particular shrimp dish, I would eat it any time.

I had taken a tall glass of white chardonnay on my way to my table and sipped from it after every bite from my taco. They went together so well. I went back to the beverage section and helped myself to another tall glass of chardonnay.

After dinner, I stood up, feeling a little buzzed from the two tall glasses of chardonnay that I had imbibed.

I decided to go out to the open deck to take in deep breaths and help my brain to replace the alcohol with fresh oxygen.

As I walked out of the dining hall, I started to wonder why Kimmon never returned my calls or my texts. Had he gotten tired of me? Were we no longer together?

Come to think of it, were we even officially together? Was I the only one who assumed that we were officially together?

I felt a painful spasm in my heart. Maybe the whole affair was one sided and it was obviously just my side.

Kimmon, where are you???

I opened the door leading to the open deck and was starting to move forward toward the railing but my peripheral vision caught sight of a couple making out on a bench by the wall at the far end of the deck.

When I recognized the faces of the couple, I immediately saw red.

The alcohol in my brain did not help any with the sudden sharp emotions that rose within my chest.

In a few quick strides, I reached Kimmon and Copter and was ready to swing at Copter when Kimmon grabbed my arm.

"What the fuck, Tul !!!" he yelled, "get away from him and from me!"

"So he is the reason why you have not been communicating with me!" I yelled, breathing heavily because I was suddenly finding it hard to take in any air.

"Why couldn't you take the hint, Tul?" Kimmon asked.

"The hint that you are fooling around with someone else now?" I asked angrily.

"I never fooled around with you, Tul," said Kimmon, "I have always considered you only as a good friend who I got along with because we have a lot of things in common, we shared the same interests and the same sense of humor. But beyond that, I never felt anything else."

There was a long pause, a painful silence.

"I see," I finally found my voice, "well, thank you very much for making it perfectly clear to me."

I quickly turned on my heel and walked away before he could see the tears falling down my cheeks.

I heard him say, "Good bye, Tul, and I'm sorry" but I did not bother to respond.

I walked blindly out of the open deck and made my way to the foyer and pressed the service button for an elevator.

As soon as it came and the doors opened, I rushed inside, not seeing the person who was walking out of it because the tears were clouding my vision.

"Hey, watch it," the person said.
