章節 6: Messed Up
"And that is how it ended..."
His chin is resting on one of his hand.
"Well, I told you it kinda sucks, right? See you look like you're not satisfied?"
Sheen is dumbfounded, the story was so realistic- well, it is real but the way he says the story, it's like she's watching a movie unfold in her imagination.
"No, it's perfect! I mean, the way you tell a story, it's amazing! Can you help me?"
She said while interlocking her hands and making puppy eyes.
His heart skipped a beat, ever since his boss made him collect information about her, he already knows that he like her boss' fiance.
"Well, maybe. If you do what I say. Every help, you should do me a favor, okay?"
He looks at her smile who looks like a kid.
"But, wait... What's your name again? Sorry, I forgot."
She said shyly while she touches her nose, he knows this habit of hers, it means she's embarrassed or shy.
Stalking her gave her a lot of information that he'll need for himself.
"I'm Gerwyn, Wyn for short. It means fair love in Welsh."
Her eyes sparkled while hearing the meaning of Wyn's name.
"Oh, you're so perfect," she said thinking that she wasn't heard.
"Yes, of course, I am," he said with a teasing smile, a smile that made her blush once again.
While looking at him, the wind that was once cold warmed up and the light makes him look like an angel whose happiness is contagious.
She then smiled with him.
"Maybe I can move on from him," she thought.
"Well, about that story... Where did you get that?" She took a sip of her tea.
"Um, somewhere over the rainbow."
He scratches his head.
"Well it's her soon to be love story," he thought while looking at her writing, her hair falls swiftly, her eyes are full of excitement and imagination.
"Why can't he tell you?" he whispers while finishing his cup of cappuccino.
Gerwyn has been working for Sheen's true fiance, he's just a mask for him to use because his boss knows that Sheen will not like to be married with him.
Gerwyn's her perfect dream guy, he's good looking, kind, mature, responsible, soft but how can Sheen forgive them on the wedding day if she'll be married to someone she doesn't love?
Thought has been running around Wyn's head when a camera flash woke him up.
"Sorry, I was just going to send this to my cousin, she wants to see how you look like."
Her wide apologetic smile made him do a peace pose.
"Okay, another one. I know I look ridiculous there," and they even did a selfie.
"Oh, it's afternoon already, I need to go."
Wyn said before leaving a tip, "See you later."
He waved his hand before closing the door.
They need to confirm to her parents about the wedding, Wyn's a well-known, rich, good-looking man.
Announcing of engagement is needed for him or more like for his boss.
----
"Ugh, did I just became an easy woman? Finding out that he's that good-looking, I immediately said yes to the engagement. God help me! Or maybe because of the book? Yeah, that's it! He's good with stories so he can help me, yep! After that, I'd divorce him. BWAHAHAHA!"
She's having a call with Bea while she's on her way to her work.
"Whatever, I don't know anymore. He's your fiance, using him in your book and reflecting on it after your divorce, won't you feel bad?"
Thinking about it, she does feel bad about it.
"Not because your romance is bad, doesn't give you a right to ruin others."
The weigh of Bea's words made her feel sad about what she did,
"I'm just saying, don't take my advice that literal, you don't have to play around someone's heart to make your book."
With every word, her guilt became anger.
"Why is it my fault? It's not like he really feels something for me! It's just for money, beach!"
Then she turns off the call, "O my gad, I'm so bad!"
Ever since Sheen was young everything she does is flowing softly to what she wants, but now, everything is messed up.
She got carried away with her awesome fiance and her book.
Knowing that marriage is a serious thing she messed her hair and stumps in the middle of the street.
The busy street, flashing cars and light, people's conversation drowning with each other, she took a deep breath.
"It will be alright," she calmed herself and went on her way.
"Please, let me court you!"
Blue almost shouted while saying this with flowers in his hand and other luxurious gifts in her desk.
Her co-workers were teasing them.
"What happened?"
She just arrived and this is what she'll see while looking at Blue's blushing face, her head ached making her stare at the flower.
"I hate this," she whispered.
He's her best friend, she can't afford to hate him or even make him hate her.
"Uh, okay." she answered.
"Now I'm messed up." she whispered.
Blue's expression was indescribable, his happiness and embarrassment, his excitement and *kilig.
Everyone cheered while he hugged her tightly, at first she got annoyed, but later, his hug calmed her once again.
She smiled, but the thought struck her.
"Fudge! I'm engaged!"
She pushed Blue, saying that she needs to go to the bath.
He saw that she's blushing, thinking that she might've been embarrassed, he let her go.
"Now, I'm blushing because of my embarrassment because I'm stupid and when did I become impulsive? Gosh, now what am I going to do?"
She washed her face, looking straight into her own eyes.
"Am I that sad about my life that I just let everything go in without thinking about it? Am I that hungry for love that I just let everyman enter my life? Am I that sad?"
Tears started flowing from her eyes, her first love was her guide.
She followed him, with plans how to get to him, but now that he's out of reach, she doesn't know what to do.
"When did he become my world?" she whimpers.
"I don't know what to do anymore."
When she came back, Blue was not there anymore and she spent her times creating the main female character.
Obviously, she used herself as the basis.
"Lonely, Dependent, Stupid, Impulsive," was her characters' attitude.
"Nah, she'll be an annoying character if she's like that," she thought while crumpling the paper but someone called her out.
"It's the President."
Her eyes widen, her chest ached, she bites her lips.
"Okay."
She stands up and went outside, she avoids looking at his face which he notices.
"Did I do something wrong, Miss Sheen?" He asked.
"Nothing, Sir Kady."
Saying his name makes her heartbreak to thousands of pieces, the name that she always called when she's alone, the name that makes her whole, the name that she loved, the name that made her existence meaningful, and the name that made her smile even if she felt like breaking, her first love.
"Okay, I just want to say that no one else is allowed to court you, except me."
Her thoughts were drowning with their memories before and she did not listen to what he said, thinking that it's about her book, she just nods and said yes.
Kady knows that she's preoccupied with other thoughts, but he still took the yes and smirks.
He felt as if he was betrayed by the people who he trusted Sheen to, making them take her away.
Both of them likes her too, and they even took the first step.
"How can you take mine?" He thought while his fists are clenching then he saw Blue, his smirk widens and he took Sheen and hugged her.
Wyn was following Blue behind and saw this too, mouthing the words "She's mine."
Sheen suddenly felt uncomfortable and shocked, making her froze in his arms.
Her tears started to fall, she's too stressed but now, she's in his arms.
She hates this, the person that rejected her is now accepting her.
"How stupid," she thought while she cried.
Kady felt the tears through his shirt while she holds onto him.
"What happened?"
This made him nervous so he let her go, while she was wiping her tears, she saw Blue and Wyn.
Her heart raced with the embarrassment and fear as they look at her, she can't clearly see their face with her wet eyes but she can feel the tension.
She can hear the judgment that they might be already putting upon her.
"Slut,"
"Bitch,"
"Itchy woman,"
"Gold Digger," and more.
She shivered while thinking that she's like that.
"Sorry," she said before running towards the comfort room.
Blue, Wyn, and Kady called her name, but she did not stop.
They all looked at each other with hate,
"I'm your best friend Blue, respect me."
"I'm your boss, Wyn. Stop stealing what's mine."
"Nope, she's my fiance already. You can't get her from me."
Kady asked Blue for help to get Sheen engaged to him without her knowing it's him because he knows that Sheen won't accept him because he once rejected her.
Blue then accepts, thinking that this might be his way to get Sheen for himself, but knowing that she only sees her as a friend, he asked Wyn, his bodyguard to stand up as the fiance for them without realizing that he already fell for her.
And now, they are all against each other for just a single lady who now cries her eyes out due to stress and because of them.
