ERIN WILLIAMS

It was fed up of watching the idiot box for more than two hours now. Nothing was exciting me. I picked up the magazine which came along the morning newspaper.

I still hadn't replied to Reid's question. I wasn't sure whether to go or not. My conscience was yelling at me to stay away from him and say no for the party but I found it difficult.

I flipped through the pages of the fashion magazine watching the pretty models show off their costumes. I was about to throw it away when my eyes landed on Zuneza's pictures. I pulled it closer again and looked at her bikini clad body. She looked pretty as usual. I was so jealous of her for being so beautiful. I hated how she looked so charming and was at the peak of her career in merely a year.

I stared at her body and envy filled my heart. She was standing at the same beach where her husband took me once. She was undoing her tie waist cover up skirt. I read the column which said that she might be pregnant. My eyes immediately went on her belly analysing her structure. Yes! She looked like she was as her belly portion looked thicker in comparison to her whole anatomy.

I heart shuddered at its place and suddenly it felt too heavy. My eyes puddled up and I didn't know how to ease myself. It was too much to bear. He was going to have a kid. He was all well settled after ruining my life, after breaking my heart. I tore the magazine into pieces and threw it away. It was too much to bear. I just couldn't control my emotions. I hated him yet his wife's being pregnant made me shrink from inside. It ripped my broken heart more.

I remembered Reid's words. Well, he was right. Aoran didn't give a damn about me. He was all happy in his life. Why was I crying for him? My brain knew what was right and what was wrong but stupid heart just couldn't understand.

I wiped my tears. All the hurt he gave me had already made me resistant to heartbreaks. I was going to survive this too.

I picked up my cellphone and called Reid. He answered in the fifth ring.

"Hey! What's popping?" His voice was really cheerful.

I tried not to sob and gulped in the sick lump.

"Are you still going to that party?" I asked.

"Of course, if you say yes." I chuckled at his answer.

I wiped my tears which were constantly falling down. I put the phone away and inhaled deeply.

"Okay! I was thinking of going out tonight so why not it be with you." I said putting the phone on my ear.

"That's cool. Be ready at eight in the evening." He said. I nodded my head as I couldn't speak. My eyes were teared up and it was difficult to stay alone.

"I'll catch you soon, Erin. My boss is approaching. I'll pick you up in the evening." He said before hanging up.

"Yeah!" I managed to say and dropped my cellphone on the couch. I punched the flower vase in agitation. I hated why I was so attached to him. I hated how things affected me and it bothered me.

I dressed up to my best to cheer myself up yet it couldn't bring my mood up. I brushed the highlighter on my cheeks and nose and picked up my hair brush. I brushed my big curly hair once again before standing up straight. I stared at my back wondering whether the silver dress I was wearing was revealing too much of my skin but then I brushed the thought away. I always had a thing for dresses with nice back.

I heard the doorbell ring and I went to check. I smiled when I saw Reid in front of me. He rocked a simple gray shirt and denim. I took my time checking him out and he looked amused.
