Can't Tell [Frankiana]

CHAPTER 30

Franki's POV
Can't Tell . . .

"Let us all welcome, Miss Diana Mackey." A crowd applause as the presence of Diana went on the stage. She's wearing her black suit paired with white polo. She didn't changed? Maybe her buttons is still open because of what I did earlier.

"Hi, uhm, I just want to thank you all for being here tonight," she said with her shy face, "I'm so blessed to be here and to uhm, accept this opportunity. Thanks for all the support, have fun guys!" The little ones bow down before losing the mic on her hand. She walks directly into our table after approaching the crowd.

"Congratulations, Mackey." Veah greeted her with a hug. And I'm just going to pretend that I didn't see it because it makes me feel sick.

"Congrats, Dee. I'm so proud of you." Gazini on the other hand tapped her arms. Everyone in our table congratulates her, and I'm the last person to do that.

"De—" I was about to greet her when she turns her back and seat next to Veah which is far from my side. Gosh! She's still avoiding the hell out of me! I didn't have any choice but to seat and talk to Kiara. Thank Goodness she's here.

"Are you guys okay?" She asked curiously.

Obviously, not.

"Yeah, I guess." I lied. I stole a glance to Diana only to see her laughing because of Veah and Gazini. She's really happy without me, Isn't she?

"Cheers, guys!" Gazini insisted. And now I realize that we are all girls in this table.

"Cheers!"

"Where's Gino?" I asked Kiara after gulping the vodka.

"Busy at work, he can't canceled his meeting." She burst a small chuckle. I nod before gazing to Diana. Still busy talking to Vee.

"Vee." I lost control and I called her name. She immediately look so I put a smile on my face.

"Yes?" She innocently asked.

"Can I borrow Dee for a minute?" I said without any hesitations. I'm so desperate.

"Uh, sur—" Diana interrupts her words.

"Maybe later, we're talking about work so..." She casually said without looking at me. Really? Is she the real Diana? Why is she doing this to me?

I wrinkled my nose after they get back in talking. I crossed my arms, watching every movements they make. What should I do here, steady? Watch them laugh and flirt with each other? Urgh! I'm losing so much patient. I jut want to talk to Dee, I've been wanting to tell her something. But how can I do that if she keeps on neglecting me? I sighed before drinking vodka, this taste good when you're annoyed.

The booming sound of The 1975 starts filling every angle of this bar house. Everyone looks so happy, enjoying their drinks. I glance at Diana and immediately took it back to focus on my glass. I guess I'm just going to wait until she's free and ready to talk to me. Hours and hours of sitting and drinking and all I can think is her. My silence suddenly broke when she starts tapping my arms.
