Staring At The Clouds

Fifty Nine- Talk Show

Chyna's POV

I was beginning to second guess this interview because when I got there I was stared at like I was a rat in a mansion. A creature that didn't fit in.

To make things worst I was tricked into coming here. Kenton's ex wife was here and she would be on the talk show as well.

Something tells me that he knew she would be on the show.

"Pete's sake Kenton? Don't you think you should have mentioned this before?" I whispered as he stared at me.

"You can't keep running Chyna, for the first time stand up for yourself" he told me and I stared at him with narrowed eyes.

Easier said than done. His ex wife and I would be on the same show, this would be a hell of a nightmare.

Kenton had his hand on the small of my back as he guided me towards where the interview would be held. The brunette was already on air so Kenton brought us to a halt.

"...while the tabloids have been read by many so a result we have invited Mister Emile Kenton and a two special guess to be on our talk show tonight." The woman stated as we made our way through the audience, many women giving me crude nicknames.

Kenton gave my shoulder a light squeeze. Honestly I find it unfair that he was judged by the minority while I was judged by the majority.

We sat next to each other, the brunette reaching over to shake our hands respectively. It was quite odd because the woman looked oddly familiar.

In fact she was more than familiar. I knew her, she was an ex classmate of mine.

I bit on my pencil, my eyes wondering if shading this slot would be a wise choice. Gosh there could not be a subject that could take the place of this one.

What the hell was this? A better term would be where the hell did mister Kenton source these questions?

Then again the man looked like a collage graduate, I doubt even he knew what the fuck he was teaching us.

If this was just a class quiz then what the hell the finals looked like?

"So glad I told my mother I had this quiz, She'll know her son died a hero" a boy mumbled and everyone laughed, my teeth sinking into my pencil quite hard.

"Come on jerk its not that bad" the bitch that saw her self as queen Jenifer stated. Odd because she was the one always complaining during sessions and asking unnecessary questions.

"Shut up Jenifer, you only like this subject because of the teacher" the boy hissed.

I had to agree with the boy, this quiz made it seemed as though I did not study at all. I took a deep breath, another answer being circled.

"So my first question, have you seen what's being said bout you all over the media?" She asked and all I could do was stare at the host.

His ex wife looked irritated by my presence. She ignored me by staring at her ex husband.

My eyes fell on the host once again, she seemed to recognize me but she was professional. Just like Mara and I she looked the same way she did in highschool. She even had a greater level of confidence now.

"I am never one to read tabloids because that's the quickest way to tarnish reputation. It was never the tabliods that made me aware, it was the reporters at my door before sunrise" Kenton's words were cold and while it didn't show I knew he was upset.

"And you?" She asked gazing between the woman who hates me and myself.

"I met her" the woman stated. The audience seem to like what they were hearing.

This show was a utter waste of time.

"Inreresting, may I ask how?" Jenifer asked an I gazed at the woman. If I didn't find someone to look at I would and up staring at the camera.

If that should happen I would walk right off the stage.

"My friends told me that you were having an affair but I didnt quite believe Camila. I mean she was your receptionist what would she know. Before you fired her days ago she told me of the suspected affair days before this scandal" His ex wife carried on and Kenton gazed at her.

"I fired Camila because of her rude statements about me, you and Chyna."  He told me.

The woman didn't seem to buy that. Camila sounded like a hypocrite to me .

"She was a good friend, one that seeked my best interest. She told me about your business trip and Chyna was on that trip maybe even in the same hotel room." The woman hissed and Kenton knit his brow.

"I won't deny having sex with her but I shared room with a male employee on that trip" Kenton clarified.

"Furthermore Kenton you always had to work as usual so I ignored your odd hours. My friend was always nosey so she followed you on more than one occasion after work. The night you said you were working you were by her apartment. You were seeing her this whole time" and when she continued her statement the crowd went wild.

All this time I said nothing, in fact the words could not leave my lips even if I wanted to.

"I came here to clarify what is being said not to have an arguement" Kenton stated in a bored tone and I toyed with my fingers.

This was rather uncomfortable.

"What the media has is the truth, our marriage was ruined the moment you met her!" The wife hissed and Kenton relaxed in his chair as he gazed at the camera.

"I met Chyna before I met and marry you so that would be inaccurate" he told her in a calm tone and before I could move he gazed at me.

"You thought her" we all looked to Jenifer, Jenifer giving the camera a warm smile. Without realization she just add to this discussion.

She just gave the media something to look into. Could this grow any worse?

"I know because you thought me too. I was in your chemistry class, care to explain the extent of the relationship?" Jenifer asked and for the first time since the show started I spoke.

"There was no relationship Jen. He was a teacher and I was his student, I never got to finish high school because the day I realized there was a possibility of me being in love with my teacher I left. I was only fourteen and Kenton would never soil his reputation with a minor" I told everyone seated around me, Kenton staring at me with a stunned expression.

"That is true, you did disappear though, was it because the relationship was threatened?" Jenifer asked and I grit my teeth discretely.

This was a terrible idea and I knew it. She was only feeding the media.

The media had their sick way to twist things.

"One kiss, nothing else happened between us at that time because the day I kissed him is the day I left." I stated only to gaze at his ex woman.

She looked as though she was going to faint.

"I was wrong because while I knew he was married I chose to be with him regardless. It was never my intention to steal your husband and while you all have the right to call me all sorts of  degrading names, I'm nothing you described in the tabloids. I am just a woman who fell inlove" my eyes were moist in this moment.

I didn't allow the tears to fall however, my hands on my lap as I spoke.

"There was no ulterior motive besides love, you don't choose the person you wish to fall in love with. I'm sorry, I'm truly sorry but..."

"None of this is her fault and I want everyone to understand that. I made the first move the day we reunited. Through our entire marriage you're affairs were far greater. I stood by you regardless because while they weren't my kids they saw me as a father. I accepted this interview to apologize to the both of you because I am the reason you are both in this situation. Our marriage ended six months after it began. For the pain I've caused I ask for you both to forgive me" Kenton's word came from the heart even though his face was strict.
