Charlene’s P.O.V When I was about to leave the mall with him, the unthinkable really happened. I ran into Bryan, in my mind my thoughts; Oh my god! I really jinxed it. The moment he saw me, his face changed so fast, he said with a smirk; Oh! Look at this slut here, going to his house and sleep with him is it (eyed at Kai who was beside me). He suddenly slapped me, it made me shock. He said; This is for ghosting me online slut. It was when, I grabbed him I wanted to get back at him for what he did to me a second ago, but I wasn’t strong enough. He just pushed me so hard that it made me fall so hard on the ground, Kai stepped up for me and gave him a punch in the face. Kai came to my aid, helped me up from the ground. He said; I called the police already bub! They should be here in a few minutes, are you fine? I replied: I’m fine bub! Just that my face hurts a lot, I should go back and put ice on my face to feel better. I peeked at Bryan to see if he left already, but I was so wrong. I should have known he is the type of person who doesn’t give up in this type of situations. He was so mad; his fists were clenched tightly it shows that he wanted to fight Terrence to get revenge. I used all my inner strength and stood up, I blocked him the moment when he wants to hit Kai. He punched me in the face, I fell with a huge thump. It was when the police officers came to my rescue, I had tears in my eyes. Kai comforted me with hugs and kisses. Kai said; Bub! You didn’t have to do that ☹ (Tears in his eyes) I said; It’s okay bub, I’m fine let’s get out of this place first. The officers grabbed, and he got handcuffed when they arrested him, officer A said; Sir, you are under arrest! You do not have to say anything, but it may harm your defence if you do not mention when questioned something which you later rely on in court. Anything you do say may be given in evidence. The officers wanted to take our statement before we can leave, the officer asked; Hi miss, are you fine? Do we need to call the ambulance for you? I replied; It’s fine officer, I just need to go home and rest. He replied: Okay, so I need to take just a short statement from you before two of you can leave. I replied; Okay sure! (smiled) Kai’s P.O.V I feel so heartbroken to see her in this state; I called a cab for her while she was resting at one side. I said; Bub, (kissed her on the forehead) I love you okay. When you get home, just wash up and rest! She replied: I love you too bub! I will be good. Thank you for calling a cab for me from what had happened just now, I had so much mixed feelings. I sat beside her, to let her lean her head on my shoulder. The cab came! I pecked her on the lips and bid her goodbye. I said; Bye Bub! I love you, have a safe ride home. She replied; Bye! (smiled at me) I watched as the car drove off before leaving. I made my way to take the MRT home, thoughts filling my mind, but I chose to brush it off as it would only stress me out when I overthink.  -------- Charlene’s P.O.V When I was on the way home, I checked myself in the reflection of my phone. I realise there is a bruise forming on my face, I was thinking; Oh My! How am I going to hide this when I get home ☹ It was already 11 pm, I hope my parents should be asleep already. When I reached home, I realize the gap under the door still has light peeking through. I just decided to take a bet and just go. I tried to act natural when I saw my mom on the sofa, however I still failed. My mom was so shock, she said; What happened to your face?! Did you get into a fight with someone? I was already in this rough state, I don’t want to lie because it would be meaningless, but I couldn’t say the full truth. I said; I protected Kai from getting hit multiple times by some random guy who wanted to rob us, he was already on the ground, but the robber didn’t want to give up. So, I blocked him that cause me to get punched instead. Go to bed mom, it is already so late I should go wash up first. She replied: Okay, I go to bed first. Go wash up and rest fast okay. I love you, Goodnight -After washing up- I took a deep sigh when I sat down in front of computer, I watched a few of my favourite YouTubers like WahlieTV, watching their videos always calms my mind. I always envy their lives as it seems so perfect, I strive to live like their lifestyle. The thought of what happened to me today, made me sigh but I chose to brush it aside. I placed my phone aside and went to bed early.   -2 weeks passed by-   Life has been good and bad for me; numerous things has happened. I had been on such an emotional roller-coaster. I quarrelled with him a few times about trust issues and communication problems, I never like to quarrel with anyone because I would never win. It makes me even more sad when we quarrel as I hardly feel happy at all it would mostly feel sad only daily.   *flashback to the day we had a big fight* I was at his house for the day, we decided to stay in instead of going out. He decided to clean his room for the first time after a while, there were so many things to do but we are determined to finish it. When I was mopping the floor, it was when he got so mad at me. At first, I was so confused as I didn’t know what he was saying. He said; Why are different guys texting you! i looked at the content they text you is so s****l, why did you lie to me about not texting other people? I replied: I don’t know what to say, I know you are thinking how selfish and shady I am of doing this when I lied to you, I felt so guilty for lying to you but what’s done is already been done. I’m sorry for what I had done, I know the trust that you gave me is already broken but can I ask for another chance as I want to build back the trust we had. He replied; do you know that is it difficult to gain back someone’s trust when it is broken, tell me why do I have to give you another chance?  Is it worth for me to give you a chance? I can give you another chance when you show me that you delete all the other guys in your phone. I replied: okay I will delete it and show you. He replied: okay, I will let you delete it. He walked off, leaving me in tears but I deleted the contacts and chats as I promised. I felt so intimidated by him; I was afraid that he would scream at my face when he picked this fight with me, but he didn’t. He just has this very cold tone than I hate, it made me feel so scared. However, for me I’m willing to change even though I know that even if I change, we would not be the same as how we started off in our relationship. I’m filled with regrets, I hated myself for doing what I had done but I know that I couldn’t turn back time anymore. This incident made me so emotional, I felt so down when he just walked off and left me in the room. Since then, i feel stressed about relationship issues and guys almost daily. Our relationship is so broken ever since we had the fight, I seek attention from other guys but still deep down I hope that things change between us. We don’t text as much; we meet only once a while after he got a new job. I want him to talk to me more, but I feel like he doesn’t reply me when I text or even say hi. It makes me feel so sad but what can I do, the only thing I can do is to suck it up and focus on myself.
