Chapter 8 I’m a Girl!
Chloe Regens
“It’s beautiful.” I said as I looked at the building lights and the beautiful scenery. The view is incredible from up here.
“Why are you taking me here?” I turned to Ken who was standing beside me.
“No reasons.” He shrugged and I took out my phone. Taking a picture of it and enjoying the night breeze that hit my face.
“Are you that happy? 20 minutes ago you just threw a tantrum to that Maria girl.” He asked and I turned to him.
“Forgive and Forget.”
“As simple as that?” He shook his head not agreeing with me.
“I’m a girl who easily forgive someone when they made a mistake. Remembering about their mistake won’t make you move on. It’s in the past.” I said as I leaned my back to the wall.
“What if you meet someone who hurt you a lot until you can’t handle it?” He suddenly asked as he put his hands to his pocket looking at the view.
“It will heal as the time goes by, we can’t stuck there all the time. We need to move on, with their mistake we can know that they’re not worth it or maybe there are times people make mistakes.” I said as I observed his face.
“How about your ex? Will you forgive him and get back to him as easy as turning your hand?” He turned to me and I looked at the beautiful view instead looking at Ken.
“Forgive and forget. I won’t get back to him again, he made a mistake so he has to learn it by losing someone.” I answered.
“You turn into a real woman, Chloe.” He stated.
“Of course.. I’m not a kid anymore.”
“Xander came to my office right after you left.” My eyes widen and I turned to him disbelief.
“What happen?”
“I don’t understand why did you date that guy?”
“Tell me what happen.”
“He came and wanted to beat me. He can’t even throw a punch.” He chuckled and I sighed. Leaning my body to the handle to see the view.
“He’s a definition of prince charming. Sweet, caring and everything a girl wants in a guy he has it. I met him at college and already date him for 3 years. I was happy.. really happy and I thought he’s the one but turns out he cheated with my bestfriend Emma.”
“Like and Love will always hurt you in the end.”
“Not always. It makes you happy and make your life have more meaning to it. All your best friends already married and here you are still single.” I turned to him.
“I’m not capable of loving someone, people told me that I’m loveless, merciless and some people even asked me if my heart is dead.”
“You love your friends, am I right? That’s love, why you’re afraid not being capable?”
“You don’t know how much we went through Chloe, we only have each other at that time. No one to lean on, all alone.” He said in a really hurt tone.
“Whatever and whoever people that hurt you in the past, are the people that make you strong like now. Just because someone cut your heart in the past, it doesn’t mean you lose your heart. It just give you scar and that scar can be heal.” I said.
“I don’t know why I’m taking you here and telling you this.” He laughed awkwardly and I just love how he’s trying to open up himself.
“Not only I’m not capable, I’m afraid someone might hurt them. Until now I still watch whats around me and my friends. There’s so many people who want to kill me and my friends and so many people trying to find my weakness.”
“That’s why you don’t want to date, like and love because you afraid one day you might lose them just like you lose someone in the past?”
“I’m heartless Chloe, girls might say that I’m perfect and boys envy my title, my brain and my ability but there’s so many things behind all that.. that they don’t know.” I sense a hurt feelings behind that. I don’t know why but I found myself walking towards him and slipped my arms to his waist.
I hugged him, he hugged me back and I don’t why this feels so right. I patted his back and he put his chin on my shoulder causing me to shiver as I felt his breath to my skin.
“Well, I’m moving to New York. I’ll meet you often okay?” I said.
“Why would I see a kid often?” He teased and I smacked his back, he groaned.
“Don’t call me a kid, I’m 22.”
“You’re a puppy that turn into a tiger.” He said and I laughed. I released the hug and glared at him.
“Because of you I have to cover my neck, you’re annoying. You know that?” I asked looking at his eyes and he smirked.
“But you like the kiss.. should we do it again?” He asked as he leaned down and I glared at him and leaned backwards.Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
“Next time, I’ll throw the plate to your face.” I hissed and he laughed again.
“You’re savage.”
“Well you’re annoying. You don’t change since 10 years ago.. still an asshole.” I punched his back since my arms were still circling his back.
“You’re feisty.. I like the drunk Chloe more.”
“I will never drink with you again.” I glared and he laughed.
“You’re no fun Chloe.. I was hoping to get drunk again and do more than kissing.” He smirked, I released my arms from his waist.
“In your dreams, Domanco.”
.
“It will be a great dream then, Regens.” Unbelievable!
“I’ll go back to LA the first thing in the morning.” I said and he raised his eyebrows.
“So?”
“Don’t miss me okay?” I winked.
“Like I would.. When I’m with you, I feel like I’m babysitting.”
“I’m not a kid anymore Kenneth Domanco, I’m the one who babysit an old man.”
“30 is not old Chloe.. you’re the kid.” I punched his arm and he groaned.
“You said Xander can’t even throw a punch and here you are groaning when I punch you.” I rolled my eyes.
“You punch like a girl.”
“I’m a girl bastard!”
