My Shining Star

Part 12

"DAMN how can I hide it from Mani?" Dinah asked to herself while tending her bruise lips.

"BABY!!"

Dinah stiffened when she heard her girlfriend's voice, her bruise is still visible it's too late to conceal it from her lipstick. Then she felt her hands on her arm embracing her tight then she face her.

"I knew it!"

"What? What did you know?!"

"I saw you leaving with Shawn, you idiot! What did he do to you? I did follow you but you're out of my sight, I don't know where you went."

"Well I'm glad I'm out of sight or it will get worse."

"What do you mean? Is he being a jerk again? Where is he?!"

"Hey, hey calm down, will you?! Geez Mani."

"Don't tell me to calm down baby, I'm furious, he punched you and you didn't fought back!"

"Baby I'm thinking of you that's why, you know he can hurt you."

"But baby..."

"I'll handle it, okay?"

"Your lips," she said sadly when she notice a scrape on her girlfriend's lips and she kiss it.

"Careful it's still hurt."

"You have to stay away from him from now on, I will not let you near him again, understood?"

And Dinah sighed, "I know and I already did."

"Mila will be a mess if she didn't break up with that dumbass."

"She will get there."

"I hope so."

"I need to find Lauren."

"You need to find her, why?"

"I need to talk to her duh!"

"I know, but why?"

"Some things need to discuss, I don't want you to get involved with this mess I created."

"Okay, I saw her in the flower garden."

And Dinah nod, "okay," and she kiss her, "I'll text you once I'm done talking to Lauren, okay?"

"Let's tend you bruise lips with some ice."

"I know."

"Come back quick."

"I will," and she left.

'WHY I felt like Shawn and I's fight gotten worse? Or it didn't resolve at all?' and she get sighed after thinking of it, 'well it's Camila we're talking about,' "damn," and she stopped when she felt someone is following her, "I really don't care if who you are, but don't you dare, you don't know me," and she heard scratches coming from the bush so she look back then she saw it was Dinah, "why are you following me?" and she notice the bruise in her lips.

"As expected from you, a black belter in Karatedo, Lauren Michelle Jauregui," and she walked towards her.

"What do you want from me?" and it halted in front of her.

"You're Camila's friend, am I right?"

"What about her?"

"Just answer me."

"I don't know, maybe, we just talked, that's all."

'She didn't know about Mila's feelings for her,' "I see, I'm Dinah Jane Hansen, I'm Mila's friend."
