Her Insecurities
900 Words
They were worried about Sandra's influence on Danny and how she has transformed him into a different person.
“What do you want me to do? Just say it and it will be granted,” Danny approves.
He's ready to lay down his life to protect his relationship with Stacy. After his father, Stacy is his most precious possession.
Stacy smiles as she hears from Danny. She sees this as an opportunity to perfect her plans.
“I need you to stop talking to Sandra. I don't want her anywhere close to you on campus,” Stacy makes her wish without mincing words.
Her lips didn't tremble either. It indicates that she meant every damn word she just uttered.
“That's a joke, right?” Danny scoffed.
That's the most hilarious statement he has heard in a long time.
He waited patiently for Stacy to debunk it. None of that happened.
She maintained the frown on her face to prove that it wasn't a case to laugh about.
"Oh, boy. “Are you damn serious?”
Danny mumbles. He's now convinced that the situation is more critical than he thought.
“This is ridiculous. I can't avoid her. She's been a blessing to my life.”
What a way for Danny to turn down Stacy's demands!
He didn't just reject her; he rubbed her face in the mud and made her speechless.
“So you're saying…” Stacy stuttered.
Words failed her to express her disappointment towards Danny.
It's difficult for her to believe that Danny will place Sandra over her.
He wanted to apologize to her, but she wasn't having it. She didn't even let him get closer to her.
“You have to decide now. It's either Sandra or me.” Here comes Stacy with another lifeline.
Danny was yet to decide when his phone rang. Immediately he checked who the caller was; he frowned. He would have expected a different caller.
“That's Sandra, right? Answer the damn phone,” she confronts Danny.
Despite not being told, she already knew who was on the phone. Danny's facial expressions made it even worse.
Michael declined the call. He did that out of respect and love for Stacy.
He just wants to prove to Stacy that there's nothing going on between him and Sandra.
Just when Stacy thought it wouldn't get worse, Sandra showed up. She has been watching them from a distance for the last ten minutes.
She would rather not approach, hence the call. And when Danny refused to answer the phone, she decided to show up in person.
“Speak of the devil,” Stacy mumbled succinctly. She ensured that Sandra didn't hear her speak.
"Hey, lovelies. Am I missing something? "Sandra joked as she greeted Stacy.
Everyone was quiet the minute Sandra walked in. She's the only confused person in their midst.
“Is there a problem?” Sandra couldn't help but ask.
She moved closer to Danny to know why he wasn't responding to his calls.
“Tell her to leave, Danny,” Stacy commands him.
“What did you just say?” Sandra giggled.
She wasn't sure if Stacy meant what she just said.
“I wasn't talking to you, loser,” Stacy attacks Sandra, forcing her to seal her lips.
“I am still waiting for you to decide, Danny,” Stacy reminds him.
She remained firm on her decision. It didn't seem like she was willing to back down anytime soon.
Danny was confused. He hasn't been this clueless before in all his life.
He's about to make one of the hardest decisions of his life.
He wants to have the both of them in the same space but lacks the courage to make it happen.
“You have sixty seconds to decide, Danny. Trust me, I'll walk away from your life for good,” Stacy threatened him.
She made the situation more difficult than it was before.
"It's fine. “I'll leave,” Sandra volunteered, but Danny pulled her back. “No, please stay; I can sort it out.”
“Oh, s**t,” Stacy wept. She just couldn't control her tears anymore.
“You worthless piece of s**t,” she spat at Danny and stormed off, leaving Sandra with Danny.
Danny didn't regret his actions. He didn't even attempt to run after Stacy to plead for forgiveness.
He hates to see her leave, but she loves to watch him go.
“What did you just do? She's going to break up with you. Did you ever for once think about that?” Sandra berated Danny.
She didn't hesitate to expose his flaws to him. That's the most bizarre moment she has ever witnessed.
She hates to be caught in the middle of two lovers, and that's exactly what's happening to her right now.
“She wants me to stop talking to you,” Danny screamed with a loud voice to stop Sandra from scolding him like a child.
He just couldn't help but spill and save himself from Sandra's wrath.
“She said what?” Sandra was confused after hearing the truth.
She feels so stupid for defending the same person who doesn't even wish her well.
“Why did she even say that?” Sandra asked again.
She senses that there's more to this.
That's the first time Stacy will treat her in that manner, hence her curiosity.
