Chapter 97: It's Hard To Trust Again
Jasmine's POV
"Jasmine!" He shouted, but I didn't look at him. Damn him, why don't he just wear his shirt. They were looking at us while the others were staring at him, or should I say to his body. "Mama Mia!" Rhian suddenly shouted, but I glared at him. She giggled before covering her mouth.
"Is that sir Travis?!" I heard their employee ask. Can't he see? They were looking at him, but he acted like he didn't care.
"Jaz, wait!" I stopped in an area far away from my staff. I sighed and looked at him. What the heck is wrong with this guy?
"What?" I annoyingly asked him with my forehead furrowed.
He stopped in front of me. He was really intentionally showing me his body. Damn it! I looked away.
"I was just kidding, okay? But I want to ask if you're feeling better now," he said. I simply nodded without looking at him. I acted, holding the walls on my side.
I heard him chuckle." If you have nothing to say, then please just go away," I told him, but he didn't move.
"Why can't you look at me?" He asked. Isn't it obvious? Is he joking with me? How could I look at him if he's not wearing something on top? And those things are freaking me out.
"Could you just leave me alone? And for God's sake! Wear your shirt!" I shouted and turned around.
Damn this guy's. What does he think he's doing?
"It was wet, don't you see? I placed it on the chair for the meantime; I don't have an extra shirt," he explained. What did he mean? Would he be like that for an hour while waiting for his shirt to dry? He was just applying to be a model here, but he didn't come to work. "Then why are you following me?" I asked him. I can't just look at him right now.
"I told you, I just want to ask you if you are feeling better now." He repeated. Yes, I heard it. It's just that I forgot. I can't focus I.
"You heard me. I'm okay. You can go. And it's none of your business if I'm okay or not, " I told him. I turned to face the wall. I could hear him breathing heavily.
"Of course, I cared about you. I love you." Here he goes again. Telling that word, he didn't know the real meaning of love.
"Just leave while I'm still in the mood, Travis." I am trying to warn him. What did he know about love?
"Why can't you accept that? I really love you. I am here to show you how much I mean that. I won't stop." He looked at me straight into my eyes like he's telling me that he's deadly serious.
"I don't have to repeat what I said. Do whatever you want, but I already made up my mind," I told him. I was about to walk away again, but he held my wrist, which made me face him.
We're too close with each other. I can even feel his breath. I step back, but the wall touches my back. Damn it. He suddenly placed both of his hands on the wall, cornering me.
"Travis, "I widened my eyes to show him that I did not like what he was doing, but he didn't remove his hand. Instead, he slowly gets closer to me.
"I couldn't resist you. I'm trying but I can't." His voice was so deep and serious and his eyes were like drowning me.
"I tried to stop this feeling, but I can't. There was no day or night I didn't think of you. You were always in my mind," he said. He's always thinking of me? This is hilarious. How could he say such things?
When he cheated on me, did he
think of me? Did he think about my
feelings? When everyone was
mocking me, hurting me with their words, what did he do? If he really thought about me, why didn't he protect me? Why did he just let me be hurt by them?
I couldn't really dare to believe in him. He can even lie while looking in my eyes.
"I know you don't believe me. And I'm not asking you to believe me either. I just want to tell you how much I love you. I know I became a jerk, I hurt you, but I want to make things right right now, Jaz. "He said while he's now staring at my lips.
I can't let him do what he did that night. I know that he's planning something again.
"I regret what happened. I regret everything. I love you, Jaz, I really do." He slowly tried to kiss me, but before his lips could land on my lips, I avoided it.
Is he thinking that I would still make him kiss me again? Is he thinking that I am really that stupid?
"Don't make me laugh, Travis. You are lying, "I told him. He suddenly held my head. Our foreheads touched. I wanted to push him, but I couldn't.
"I'm not. Damn, baby. I really missed you. I don't care if you don't want to believe me it's okay. Just please let me love you" I looked into his eyes. I couldn't trust him. I can't let him do that. We're over. Why doesn't he just accept that? After all, this is all he wants.
"Travis, please. Stop it now. You're
just giving yourself a false hope. We will not be together again. I don't want you to hurt me again. I don't want to be in pain again. So please, just stop this nonsense and have a decadency. "I removed his hand and left him there.
Because the pain he had caused me in the past five years was still here until now, it's hard to forget that pain. It's hard to forgive him and give him another chance. It's hard to trust him again. I'm scared of trusting him again. I can't. "Are you okay, Ma'am?" Rhian asked me. I just nodded at him while I saw Travis get his shirt and go outside the venue.
