Chad's POV
It was nearly six in the morning and I had polished another Corona. Micah had called Raul's mobile four times since the text message I sent, and I had been in the verge of picking it up. She eventually gave up and sent him a response, "Please call me, I really need to talk with you. Please call me as soon as you get this message. I love you."
Turning the ringer off, I lay down on the futon.
"Bastard," I whispered.
At that very moment, I loathed Raul. He wasn't different to Sophia. My heart went out to Micah and what she was about to go through, when she found out about Raul's transgression. I knew she would, the truth always has a way of coming out sooner or later, and she will probably suffer the same torment that I had. I hated Raul because he was causing me to relive my agony. To feel the pain, anger and the humiliation all over again!I kept being dragged back into this hell! My anger continued to fuel itself and I wanted to wake Raul just to physically release my rage on him.
Regaining my composure, I made my way to the bathroom and splashed some cold water on my face. As hard as it was, I forced myself to try and be objective. Raul is my bestfriend, almost like a younger brother and he had turned to me in his hour of need. Yet, a part of me yearned to pick up the phone and tell Micah. I was disgusted and was losing respect for him. I hated having him in my home. I despised being forced into such a conflicted circumstances. He didn't deserve to be forgiven. He didn't deserve to be with Micah, and she deserved to know the truth.
Torn apart from within, I looked at myself in the mirror. My grip tightened on the sink. An all too familiar feeling ran through me. I had felt this anger, hate and confusion and it was worse this time. I wanted justice for myself, also Micah deserved justice too.
I rapidly made my way to the table and picked up the phone, and for a few seconds, all I could do was stare at the digits. Twisting open the bottle cap, I gulped down the beer and started to dial Micah's number.
