This afternoon Carol called Jeremy but didn't tell him about this dinner. They had made an appointment after work. Carol finally went to her boyfriend's apartment. But she didn't expect to find clothes strewn across the living room floor of Jeremy's apartment, not even Victoria's Secret women's panties.
When Carol opened the door to Jeremy's room, she saw the two bodies merged with sweat soaking their bodies. Carol was oddly able to act out what didn't bother her after waiting for Jeremy to get dressed on the living room sofa. Or rather, let the man finish his lust which stopped due to her arrival, and damn, Jeremy made Carol wait long enough.
Jeremy approached Carol; the man was only wearing his shorts without a top.
"Why didn't you tell me beforehand if you wanted to come?"
"And let you hide that whore in your apartment!!" Carol answered Jeremy's question sarcastically before standing up with broken tears.
Carol hit Jeremy's bare chest; the man hugged her lover's body without guilt. Carol just caught Jeremy sleeping with another woman; she hates Jeremy but can't help it.
"Why... Did I do something wrong for you to have an affair?!" Asked Carol, who was in tears staring at Jeremy's blue eyes.
"Nothing... I can't accept one woman in my life, Carol..." There wasn't even a word of apology, and with that, Carol burst into tears; she looked like she was struggling to stand up.
Jeremy took his fiancée's body into his arms and sat on the sofa in his lap; Carol did not refuse. She just wanted to cry over her heartache this time; she didn't care if that damn bitch was still in her fiancé's apartment. All Carol seeks to do is a vent.
After 1 hour of crying, her head felt a little dizzy, and she slowly slipped down soundlessly from Jeremy's lap even though he was trying to hold her hand. "What are you holding me for?"
Hearing Carol's question, Jeremy released his grip on Carol's wrist, which made her heart ache even more. Jeremy didn't want it as much as she used to, only she still hoped that even until the last second she got out of his apartment. Seeing Paula's figure there still in Jeremy's white shirt, standing stiff, there was a slight grin on her lips.
"He loves me, not a spoiled brat like you!! Complain to your father and mother; I'll make sure Jeremy hates you even more!" Hearing the woman's words, Carol clenched her fists in anger.
Carol didn't know; right now, she just wanted to go home but also wanted Jeremy to hold her there and return to how she used to be.
But no way, Carol!! He already cheated on you!
....
Carol returns to her routine; she has obligations even though her heart is in ruins. Her brother's twins came up to her this morning, offering breakfast, but she refused. On a business trip, her parents also called her, asking if Jeremy was okay with her engagement being canceled unilaterally.
Of course, she's not okay.
She loved that man, but Jeremy chose to let her go. That jerk man didn't deserve her to cry. Still, every time she remembered him, tears flowed out unnoticed, like when she was listening to an explanation from the preparation division for a big fashion show event with the theme of a shopping mall in Paris.
"Okay, that's what I'm describing at this time." The employee said to her; Carol just nodded, acting like she never wiped her tears even though everyone in the meeting room knew what happened to their boss.
"Okay, maybe get here this meeting. You can rest; we will evaluate further tomorrow. Because I'm a bit less concentrated," said Carol, getting up from her chair.
Everyone else followed suit, and one started with an arrogant face that made everyone want to bite their fingers in annoyance.
"I heard your fiancé was having an affair; I'm sorry for the cancellation of your engagement, miss," Terry said; she was a woman from the design division who hated the wealth, beauty, and luck of her boss for no reason.
"Oh yes. Thank you, I'll be right out first." Carol replied, not wanting to obey Terry, who wanted to make a scene here.
Even though everyone tried to refrain from talking about it in front of their superiors, Terry bravely made a statement and gave her condolences arrogantly. Terry smiled when Carol left the meeting room quickly.
"Terry!!"
"What?" Terry looked at his friends with annoyance. "You must be curious, too, right? So I started first; in the end, you guys were satisfied to see that the answer about the gossip was the truth!!" She said before walking out with the others.
Carol drove to her car crying; she wanted to go to her little best friend's office. She tried to shed all his heartache; Marcus had just returned from England for his brewery business. The man had been very successful this year and gave the time to celebrate her success Carol's sobs.
"Marcus, I love him. I love him so much that I want to die…." Carol cried, hugging Antoni's body which was wearing a shirt. "I'm excited to find the wedding date, the dress I'm wearing, the suit and shoes that Jeremy wants to wear on our wedding day. Any close friends who will invite, I already thought if we have children, I will design the room with my own hands... cry... But that jerk has an affair!! He's fucking having sex with other women!!"
Carol kept babbling non-stop while crying in Marcus's lap; he had known her since she was eight. At his 12th birthday party, now crying in his lap, complaining about the heartache he experienced due to failing to marry. But now, there is a man who dares to hurt his little friend; Marcus certainly holds back the anger in his heart.
That was the first day Marcus learned that the Williams family had a daughter besides their twins; at that time, Carol looked like a lost kitten. That's when Marcus approached her out of pity; until now, the two of them were very close.
Carol is considered like a little sister to her, more than her younger sibling, who is currently attending high school.
"What should I do, Marcus!!" Carol was sobbing because her sobs were loud, while Marcus had to put up with her ears starting to hurt from Carol's crying.
"There's nothing you have to do for that man; he doesn't deserve you. Just that!" Marcus replied.
"But I-"
"—Ssshh, you don't want it. You've had enough of crying over that bastard; you can't be like this. Where did the beautiful and confident Carol go?"
"I am not beautiful. Two pimples appeared on my cheeks because I forgot to clean my face at night after work; I even cried and fell asleep without realizing..."
"See, it only hurts you in the end. I allow you to cry but not to drag on. It's been two weeks, it's hard to forget, but you haven't tried it and have chosen not to." He said, wiping the tears from her cheeks.
They were intimate, sitting on the couch with Carol on Marcus' lap. Everyone often misunderstood when they saw this, but it was widespread for the two of them. But some people find that unusual, including Marcus' fiancé, who has just forced his way into his office with an angry face.
Meanwhile, Marcus, holding Carol's body, was surprised to get up from her lap. The man had Carol's body, whose face was still a mess from crying.
"So you did have an affair!!" The voice sounded loud, and of course, it could be heard by his two secretaries outside, along with two security guards who also chased his fiancé into his office.
