Chapter13

Well, she was certainly crying now. It hurt, and she didn’t know what was worse: the fact that she saw them together, about to get it on, on the couch or the fact that she was irrevocably in love with him and he didn’t give a damn.

We have nothing. We have nothing between us. She shouldn’t have said that. There was something between them, and maybe, just maybe, Ana Paula had gotten to him, ensnared him. Perhaps, he was never really infatuated with her, even if he said he was. There was that thin and fine line between a white lie and the truth.

She had walked home, walked all seven kilometers of it, her hoodie placed well over her head. How pitiful was this? How pathetic? That she walked home crying, alone, trying hard not to sniffle too loudly. Walking at that moment was better than sitting inside a cab, crying. She hadn’t made a scene earlier, which was important; she was as calm as she could be, even if she knew she was shaking already. How else would she have reacted? She didn’t even throw a hissy fit when her engagement party was interrupted by a pregnant stranger.

The scenes replayed in her head, and she desperately wanted to push them out. How? Drink liquor until I pass out? Call my mother and cry until my tears run dry? This was her doing, this was her choice, and she didn’t need to whine about it to anyone.

Stay strong, she told herself, shuddering. Was it the cold? Or was it from that emotional pain? A pain she wouldn’t have felt if she had stayed away from him. Would you have successfully stayed away from him? A voice inside her asked.

I was being greedy. I wanted to rake in all the happiness I could, she thought. Look where it got me.

She shouldn’t have gone there… or maybe it was a blessing in disguise that she had, just so she could see the depth of betrayal that people could be capable of—as if she hadn’t experienced that kind of emotional hell already.

Ana Paula was there first, and as much as she wanted to hate her, she couldn’t. Perhaps, she was still in love with him, far more in love with Alex than with the man she was supposed to marry. What was going to happen now? She could resign. She could resign right away and then go home. That was one option. Another option was to stay until her visa expired, but she knew that wasn’t feasible. They could run into each other on the street. The former proved to be the best option.

She would go home at the end of the week, she told herself. She would go home, and she would do what she did best; she would move on. I’ve been through worse. What makes anyone think I can’t pull through this? Why am I thinking I can get over this easily? Six months wasn’t enough; that was why she’d left home, and then to feel a fresh wave of pain … she didn’t deserve this.
