Damn! Jake, when are you going to be strong? You are too cowardly.
Jake said all this to himself while hitting the wall of the washroom. He stopped it when blood was coming.
Fuck you, Dylan. Because of him, I am hurting myself. Who does he think he is? Does he think I have given up?
Hmm! I will never give my Nik to him.
I know she still loves me, and it won't be difficult to win her back.
All I have to do is explain everything to her and why I did all this. Yeah, I have to. She will understand it.
I finished what I was doing and went back to the party. Immediately, I reached there, I saw Nik on stage about to perform.
..........
Niki is on stage now about to perform. She saw Jake standing there alone, and she smirked to herself," This is what she wants.
She also looked over and saw Mrs. Monica and her husband and her soon daughter-in-law. Everybody was looking at her, so she had to start her performance.
Hello everyone. I am very grateful to you all for accepting me to perform today.
I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for this one person whom I love so much.
And that person is Dylan Rodriguez. He stood up from his seat for everyone to see him. They all started clapping for him and he was happy.
Everyone, may I get your attention, please. Every eyes came on me again.
Please, I will be singing while dancing with my group dancers.
The beat started, and my group came on stage. They were all girls. I mean four girls. I was going to sing "My last, make me feel like I will never try again".
We started twirling with our hips before I started singing the song.
While singing, I moved out from stage to where Dylan was, and I started twirking in front of him. He, too, held on to my hips and went on the floor.
While dancing with Dylan, I saw Jake standing there looking very angry and jealous. I saw him folding a fist and that is where I saw bruises on his knuckles.
I went back to the stage and danced more with my girls till we finished our performance.
Everyone clapped for me and I left the stage. I saw Jake going to the washroom again and I followed him.
When I reached the washroom, I saw him hitting his fist on the wall and his fingers were bleeding.
I stopped him by hugging him from the back.
Jake, please, stop it. Why are you doing this, and what is your problem?
Niki, baby is that you?
Yes, it is me, but don't forget I am not your baby.
I let go of him and started walking out of there, but I was stopped by him. He was hugging me from the back while crying
Baby please, don't leave me. I love you so much. I can't leave without you dear. I am very sorry for everything I did, and I promise it won't happen again.
Everything i was doing was a fake action. If you allow me, I will explain everything to you, please.
What are you talking about Jake? I'm totally confused. What fake action are you talking about?
If you are ready to listen, then I am ready to tell you everything.
Okay, you tell me everything. I am ready.
Jake held my hands, and he drove me out from there to outside through the back door. He made me enter his car and drove off from the party.
We went straight to Jake's new house.
Jake, why did you bring me here? Whose house is this?
This house is mine, just chill off, Nik. I brought you here, so I can tell you everything.
Okay, then go on Jake, Your time is running out.
Okay fine, bb I said those things to you because I wanted to inherit my father's company.
And it will only happen when I am engaged to the witch, Lily.
I was going to tell you everything on that day, but mom decided to interrupt us bb.
So at that time, I didn't know what to do anymore but to pull off that damn story of mine, baby.
I am so, so sorry, please forgive me and come back to me.
Wait, what! Come back to you, for what? To be your side chick, huh!?
Is that what you are trying to tell me, Jake?
Tell me...you d**k!. Come on, can't you talk!?
No bb, is not like that.
Then what?
Listen Niki bb, You will never be my side chick. I will marry you, bb. I promise you that I will marry you. Please just give me some time, bb.
Sometime for what? Oh, so you are now thinking about how to break up with her?
Oh my goodness Lord, when are you going to be the man Jake?
It's been years, and you still don't have the courage to tell her you don't love her.
What are you, a 14-year-old kid?
You just don't get me, Niki. That family is too dangerous. If I don't break up with her properly, it will be a disaster bb.
I don't want to lose my family because of my foolishness.
Foolishness? Did you just say foolishness?
Then why the heck did you bring me here? Why don't you let me be?
Why don't you let me be with Dylan, huh!? You think I am the same cheap old Niki that stays at your house for a living, right?
You just don't get it Niki, I don't want to involve you in this mess bb.
Just trust me and promise me that you will not marry Dylan bb. Please promise me.
Promise you? Never. I will marry Dylan if you are too late.
Just hurry up with your breakup plans, because your time starts now, my handsome prince.
I am going home and don't follow me.
Please let me drive you back home. No, I don't need your help. I'm fine sweetie, I can call a taxi to drop me home.
You just relax and think this through. Just remember this, there's no going back on what you choose.
