Betty!?

"Let's go Dina." I groaned and stood on my feet.

"Wait! I'm still pale." I heard her whining but I kept walking towards the parked cars.

Dina followed me and within five minutes we are on our way back home. Dina kept giving me quick glances but I locked my gaze on the roads.

"Why are you upset?" She questioned in a soft voice and I stayed silent.

"I'm talking to you.., why are you jealous Anna?" She mumbled.

"I'm not jealous." I lied not looking at her.

"Yeah! I can't see jealousy on your face." She sarcastically mumbled and focused on driving.

After few minutes of silence, "Are they dating?" I asked Dina in low voice.

"I don't think so." She said giving me a look and looked back at the road, "She's a college student, she doesn't stay here. She only visits home in holidays," she continued.

"How do you know?" I asked with curiosity.

"Their family lives in the same street where Olivia family lives." She explained.

I stayed silent after hearing Dina, Peter might have known her for a long time. Dina drove us back to her house, I took a quick shower in her bathroom and got dressed up in my casual clothing. I laid on her bed while she's taking a bath and kept wondering about Peter and that beautiful girl Betty.

"Agh! Please smile, I can't look at your face." Dina groaned as she walked out of the bathroom with wet hair.

"I'm fine," I said.

"No, you are not... look at your face the word upset is written on it." She snapped.

I buried my face into my palms without knowing what to say, yes I'm jealous, upset and I feel like crying but I don't know why I feel like this.

"So you are jealous because you saw Peter with someone else?" She mumbled sitting next to me on the bed.

"Yeah!" I nodded.

"But you were upset from past two days.. from that day you saw Robert kissing someone." She said.

"Who said that? I'm not upset about that." I defend myself.

"Really? Do you think I don't notice anything? Stop lying." She said and stood in front of me with crossed arms. I stayed silent, I know that she noticed everything but I tried to pretend. I guess I failed in pretending.

"Now tell me exactly why are you upset.., is it about Peter or Robert?" She asked.

"Both?" I mumbled looking up at her face.

"Seriously?" She asked with a frown on her face.

"Yeah... I felt bad when I saw Robert kissing someone else and I always feel something inside me whenever I see him with any other girl. Even today at the beach I saw him with other girls I felt jealous of Dina. I tried to avoid looking at him.." I confessed.

"And what's with Peter?" She asked still standing in front of me.

"It's the same with him too, I felt something is burning inside me when I saw Peter holding Betty's hand." I groaned.

"It's jealousy." She mumbled.

"Yeah, I know." I sighed.

"So you are jealous." She said.

"I know I don't have any right to feel this way," I said looking away.

"No... you have every right to feel whatever you feel Anna. I never said you were wrong. I'm just asking that on whom do you have feelings." She explained.
