Chapter 18
Chapter Eighteen.
"I can feel your heart beating for me" she remembered his words as she walked back to her room. Twisting the knob of the door, she entered and shut the door locked. He backed against the door, and she slide down and sat down on the floor with her palm on her face and her knees on her chest. She cursed under her breath as she remembered what had transpired between them a while ago.
What the heck was wrong with me? Why did I let that happen? She thought, blaming herself.
"I am such a fool for allowing that to happen between us." She muttered and then she began to remember his words again.
"You look sexy tonight" he whispered in her right ear.
She remembered the way he licked his pink lips which she found attractive and sexy at that moment. He was driving her nuts. She was feeling so annoyed with herself for letting her guard down for him. She felt so vulnerable even though she had promised herself to never allow any guy to be her weakness but she had just failed.
Her eyes watered at the thought of it. She stood up and was reminded of the last statement he made to her.
"Fine. Do you think you can do this? We are in it. You will eventually become mine and end up on my bed again, Sabrina." He licked his lips and tried to touch her but she moved away. She hated the way her formal name rolled out of his mouth so smoothly. She knew no matter what she could do, Liam would never stop calling her Sabrina.
She hated the name because of the bad memories it brought to her even though he was the cause of her misfortunes before. The way he told her she would eventually become his and end up on his bed made her insides quiver. She shake the horrible thoughts out of her head and focused on making herself dinner.
To keep her mind focused, she turned on very loud music that was loud enough to destroy a person's eardrum but she didn't care. She was used to it. Just then her phone rang while preparing herself some potatoes and chicken. She fried pepper and sprinkled some ingredients.
She checked the phone and saw it was Fred. What exactly does he want?
She ignored it but when he won't stop calling her. After what looked like twenty minutes, she picked up the phone and turned off the music.
"What the hell do you want, Fred?" She yelled.
"I want you, Diana. I demand you to come over and let's get down to business." Fred commanded.
But then Diana laughed out at the audacity. "The nerves! How dare you call me just in the middle of the night to order me to come to your house? Can you even handle me? You are way past my league, Fred. You gotta move on and stop holding onto what you can't get at the end of the day." She told him.
"Tell me, Diana. Tell me what you want. I promise to give it to you. Is it money? Mansion? Good sex? A new car? Just name it babe." Fred gave her options.
"You are out of your mind. Do you think all you have mentioned would move me to come running back to you? Oh boy, I don't eat leftovers. Get over me already. You disgusting piece of shit." She said.
"Is it me you are talking to this way? You know I can give you all those things. You know that! Is it because of that piece of shit of a tenant you have now? Is it him fucking what belongs to me now? Answer me!"
For a while, Diana kept quiet when Fred mentioned his name. She let out a deep sigh and frowned her face. She was silent.
"Hell, I was right. He is the one. He is the one taking what is mine. He is biting more than he can chew."
"Why are you yelling at me? Who do you think you are? Do not ever call my phone again." She yelled and hang up on him.
*
Morning*
Liam rolled on his bed and opened his eyes. He couldn't sleep just because of the argument he had with Diana last night. He just wished the girl would give him one last chance to make it up to her. To love him just the way she loved him back then in high school before he broke her. It hurts him with the way she spoke to him last night. He knew just how beautiful and sexy she was.
He just couldn't compare her with other girls he had met and fucked in the past. To him, Diana was just different from others.
He felt the force pulling him towards her but it wasn't easy for her to forgive him.
Just one more chance, he thought and shut his eyes. He took the duvet away from his body and went into the bathroom to take up his hygiene.
He bathed and put on his shirt. Putting on his shoes, he sprayed his perfume and was ready to go to get the groceries he needed. When he passed by her apartment, he stopped and checked if she was nearby but when he didn't see any sign of her, he walked away.
He opened his car and dropped his bag on the other seat. He sat down and put the key in the ignition and he drove away.
On his way to the grocery store, he couldn't help but think about her too. He just couldn't stop.
To the point, he was distracted and almost hit a man selling some tomatoes.
"Watch it." The man shouted at him.
"Oh fuck. I apologize." He told the man and went away.
This time, he promised himself to concentrate.
He drove to the store and bought so many things.
