Her Sweet Vengeance

Chapter 10.5

Chapter 10.5

I woke up when my alarm clock started to cry. Yes, I set the tone into that because it wakes me up effectively. I hurriedly cooked for my breakfast – a simple fried egg and toasted bread. After that, I took a bath and wore my prepared outfit for the day. I wore a light makeup and I smiled one last time at the mirror before I left the house. I was really in the mood. I looked around as I walked along the street as I am going to pick up the cake from the shop. I smiled at the lady after I paid for it. I hailed a cab going to Grey’s condo unit – as I’ve said, he has a lot of money to afford luxuries in life. I looked at the white box of cake on my lap and I kept on looking at the streets. I saw high rised building in this part of the city. Until now, I am still amazed of how the great minds of those business men works. They can afford to make such fine structures and earn a lot of bucks yearly. If I will be given the same opportunity then I will do my best to be in the top tier.

I sighed as I diverted my gaze straight forward. I saw the billboards on eitherside of the road featuring models and products. I realized how fast the world changes and how fast paced we live. The sound of the roaring engine and the constant humming of the air-con were the music I hear in my ears. I was awed when the driver stopped in front of Ever Dream, the building that was made for the luxurious condo units in the city. The building itself is high and mighty. The top of the building glistens as the rays of the morning sun hit it and the shiny greenish glass windows really completes the amazing style of it. I paid for the fare and went straight to the entrance. I was careful as I am carrying the cake. I don’t want the cake and the icing to be ruined when I arrive. I went inside the elevator and pressed 28th floor. I waited patiently as people come and go. When I heard the ‘ding’ sound, I exhaled loudly and started to walk to Grey’s unit.

I reached for my bag pocket and took out a magnetic key card. Yep! He gave this to me ages ago as he wants me to visit him. I guess, this will be the time that I shall put this into good use. I inhaled and exhaled loudly and turned the door knob. When the cold metal touched my skin, I don’y know but it made me stop for a second. I felt my heart pounding against my chest. I shrugged off the nervousness I felt and went inside. Again, this is the second time that I was in awe today. This place is amazing and elegant. The prominent colors of cool blue shade and white makes the place look like a reflection of the sky. The whole place is spacious but there is no single frame or picture or displays.

I turned towards the kitchen area but I froze in my spot. Never did I thought that I can witness something like this. My eyes almost pop out from its sockets. My muscles involuntarily shook and my mind was blank for a second. It was like my world stopped revolving but despite that, this heart of mine hurts like hell. I saw my boyfriend, Grey, who’s fvcking Maxine who’s sitting on the tiled sink. Wow! Never did I thought that my love story will be this dramatic.

I sliently walked towards the dining area. They did not notice my presence either. They are enjoying their fvcking moment. I placed the cake in the glass table silently and I took a chair and sat on it. I know that I just need to watch them for how many minutes. My heart hurts badly but I don’t want to just ran away like those stupid ones who did it already.

“Ahhh Grey! More!” Maxine’s voice was unrecognizable. She looks like a slut to me. The more time they are consuming, the more that my blood boils.

“I’m cumming babe,” said Grey. So, it was babe for him. How long did they already stabbed me behind my back? How long did they cheated on me? Now I am asking myself if I did something wrong or was I not enough?

I heard them grunting and thenn I knew that they already reached the highest point of their fvcking session. I closed my eyes to suppress my tears that were trying to fall. I stood up from the chair. I made sure that it created a loud noise and it startled them. Grey became pale like he just saw a ghost and Maxine has an unreadable expression on her face. I clapped my hands loudly – multiple times. It was like I saw something so commendable and worth it for the praise but my facial expression shouts otherwise.

They really have the guts to stay naked in front of me. Woah! They sure have hard and thick skulls. I am enraged but I am calm on the outside.

“Wow! That was a mind blowing and nerve-racking performance that you both did. Congratulations! And by the way, thank you for offering a live p**n in front of me. At least, now I don’t need to look for those sites to see p**n videos. You can always offer it to me for free. I just gained a VVIP Access Card. Didn’t I? Oh wait! I have here my phone.” I fished my phone from the bag pocket and then turned on the camera. I walked towards them and I held Grey’s arm. I pushed him towards Maxine’s direction.

“There perfect! A stupid and a garbage who cheated on gold. That was indeed a great anecdote right? Now come on, don’t be shy at all. I’ll be your videographer this day and I will sell your p**n video to any p**n site. It might be a hit and it will give us a lot of money. Now, have the guts to fvck each other’s brain out in front of me you pigs!!!” I screamed like a mad woman. My throat hurts as I am really trying to control my emotions. I won’t cry. Not on their watch and give them both satisfaction. I’ll die first before they can see me miserable.

“Now, you can’t do it? As I remembred earlier, you love doing it. What a shame that I can’t watch it again.” I started to walk away from the kitchen when Maxine screamed.

“You will never be happy! You don’t have the right to, you rat! Now your boyfriend is mine and you’ll be left alone.” I looked at her in the eye. I saw her flinched – maybe from the intensity of the gaze I am giving her.

“Oh really? Are you happy fvcking men Maxine? I was so sure that you will never change a bit. You are not God to give me a right or suppress my rights either. Boyfriend you say? I thought I never had that? Well, it’s ex-boyfriend already for the information of your slow brain. You can have that so called boyfriend who cheated on me. If he did cheat now, surely he’ll do it in the future too. Be careful Maxine and watch your boyfriend 24/7 so you won’t miss a detail or event.”

I started to walk out from that unit. After I closed the door, I dashed off to the elevator and I was lucky enough to get inside. I saw Grey was running after me but the doors already closed. A lone tear dropped in my left eye and I wiped it using my point finger. The elevator ride felt like eternity. I exhaled loudly as the elevator dinged and I ran straight outside the building. I was about to hail a cab when someone hugged me from behind. I know who he is. His scent, his body heat, the feeling I feel always when our skins collide. I know I can’t deny his presence or mistook it for someone else.

“Let me go now Grey. I need to go now.” My voice was surprisingly low and intimidating.

“No. I will explain Miracle,” his voice cracked and he was pleading.

“There is nothing to explain Grey. I saw it earlier. Is it because she can warm your bed and I can’t that’s why you cheated? Was it fun to make me a fool while you are watching me and be a laughing stock for your consumption? Just let me go Grey. Let me go because I don’t want you anymore. This relationship is suffocating. It was bound by lies already and trust me when I say that my trust is now broken. I never knew that I will witness an act of betrayal but I was so wrong since I just witnessed it today. How insane right? My boyfriend cheated on me on the day of our anniversary. Or was it just today or you did that ages ago? Well, I still thank you tho, I’m grateful that you enlightened me. I realized, you are not worthy of my love and time. My efforts all go waste because of you. We’ve been together for two years already and that two years will end today. So let me go Grey. Let me go… forever.”

I felt my shirt got wet. I know he’s crying and so do I. I just tried my best so he can’t hear my voice c***k a bit. Slowly, I removed his arm from my waist like I was taking tha heavy anchor so I can flee. Away from him. Away from betrayal. Away from pain. I need to go now while I still have the strength and courage to do so. I am still holding to that small rope of bravery and pride inside me so that I won’t breakdown right now.

The cab stopped in front of me and I went inside it without looking back at him. I closed my eyes as the tears started to drip from them like a broken faucet. I bit my lower lip to suppress my sobs until it bleed. This pain I am feeling right now is not like the pain I felt before. This pain is suffocating. It is making my heart ache so much that my body feels so heavy and useless.

I fished my phone and dialled Mariah’s number. The phone call was not picked up. I guess she is so busy right now. I remembered again that I am always alone in this world. It is not rightful to let them problem my problem. I paid for the fare as the cab stopped on the seaside. Yup! I asked the driver to drop me here. After I went out, the machine roared again and the vehicle moved in fast speed leaving behind a thick white smoke.

I started to walk towards the sea until such time that I felt the salt water touching my feet. The waves are soft and they make foam each time they move and hit the surface. No one is here except me. Only the shade of the mangrove trees gave me comfort despite the problem that I have right now. My tears started to fall again. I did not know how long I’ve been here but the sky now is covered with light cottony clouds and the hues of orange and pink is scattered like a colorful paint in the heavens like a painting on a canvas. Despite the ugly things that happened today, this is the thing that screams that the world is still a beautiful place.

Never did I felt hungry or was it because my mind was so preoccupied and I forgot that I need to eat? Or maybe because my stomach desipated because it has known that my heart is slowly breaking to pieces? I wiped my face using the back of my hand and stood up. I still need to see my friends since they are actually waiting for me to show up today. I hailed a cab again and went straight to my rented place. Maybe I need to move out from here too. I don’t want to but I became indifferent. This place still belongs to Grey and I don’t want any connections of him again. I will move on. I can move on and but I will never forget him. Why? He’s been a part of my life even though he just gave me heartache.

I started to pack my things after I sent a message to Mariah and Jinny. Later then, I was in front of the cottage where I saw my friends inside. When Jinny saw me, she ran like a kid and hugged me tight. I laughed at her. She obviously miss me.

“Hey girl. Happy happy born day! Wohoo!”

“Tone down Mariah. The people out there might hear you.”

“Sorry okay? Anyway girl blow thy candle. Make a wish. I know it’s out of fashion but…”

“It’s okay guys.” I went to the table and blew the candle earning a round of applause from them. The party started and when I mean party, that’s eating and drinking. I smiled as I saw how happy my friends are. Jinny looks contented and she’s stunning now. Mariah and Jimmy has love reflected on thei eyes. I look like an outcast on my own party. I am in pain now but I never told them anything about it. Jinny sat beside me after she typed something on her phone.

“Hey birthday girl. Where is your boyfriend? I thought he will come here because you’ll bring him here.”

“Jinny, don’t look for the absence. Value the presence.”

“You’re being deep again. Don’t speak like that most especiallly when we are conversing. My brain is poor and all I have is my curves.” I chuckled lightly. Jinny and her self confidence and at the same time insecurity.

“Jinny. What I mean is… he’ll never come here.”

“Is he busy? What type of boyfriend is he?” I heard irritation in her voice.

“He’s busy in the arms of another woman. He is the typpe of boyfriend who cheated on me and gave me a bomb at our anniversary when I saw them fvcking each others brain out in the kitchen of his condo. Don’t look for myy boyfriend. I don’t have one. I have an ex already.”

“WHAT?!”
