Ava
I was shocked to see Sean at the hospital. He came in Like he owned the place.
Every stride of his leg oozed power.
And damn me, if I’m not attracted towards the power and aura of him. He is just the perfect specie man. But the thing he proposed that was unacceptable.
I narrowed my eyes at him as it came towards the receptionist. That exception add was giving him all heart, eyes and a flood smile.
Might as well fuck him on the desk in front. Why don’t you bitch? I think to myself.
He was talking to her as he professionally as he possibly can.
Sean moved to pay the bill to that receptionist. So I barged in and denied him to make the payment.
He did it anyway just to defy me.
Well, that is not entirely true as I think he also did it out of hi Not so cruel heart because he was the one hitting Oscar with his car.
We left the doctors clinic. I rushed out because I hated that he paid the bill. The money for the Oscars aid should have been provided by me even though I did not have them at the moment. As I thought it was my fault that the accident happened with Oscar. If I would have been a little careful, it wouldn’t have happened. But yet, Sean paid the bill without hesitation.
“Thank you for making the payment,” I said as we got out of the clinic. I was thankful that he paid. But I didn’t like the fact that it was not me who paid the bill. So I wa quite annoyed with myself.
I’ll arrowed my eyes at him. And glared at him with annoyance. As I wait for him to say anything. I was getting really impatient here. As he just stared at me.
He still didn’t say anything, so I continued because I am a fool.
“Goodbye, Sean. I hope I don’t see you very soon again.” I said, concluding. My statement and not waiting him for saying anything now. I was hated that he did what he did.
He shouldn’t have came to me with that stupid contract. I thought we could even become friends, but that was really stupid and na? ve of me to think.
How could he think that I would accept such kind of a proposal? Am I that degraded? Do I give this kind of impressions to every guy? Even this morning. My best friend of years came and asked me to be his fake girlfriend. What am I a gold digging and lying whore?
I don’t want to see him ever again. I really wish I don’t. It’s better for my eyes, my mind, my health. And most importantly, my heart.
Liar, liar, pants on fire. Because, all I can think about is meeting him in different scenarios. Apart from the one we actually met in.
But I want Sean to understand that I might not be as rich as he is, but I surely I’m not that desperate to marry a guy who is getting married in two days, For money. I am not the kind of girl he is used to. I’m not some high society girl who only wants to marry a rich guy because that’s all she can do To ensure her future.
I mean, it’s not wrong to do that. If some one wants to, they can, it is completely acceptable to think about your future. But I am not like that. I like to work hard for my success and achieve what I want by myself. Even though I’m clearly very slow at it.
I won’t let anyone humiliate or degrade me just for money. I have a lot more self respect than he thinks I do.
And I don’t think he he’s used to a women being powerful in his community. Because, everyone is just quiet about the insults. And they talk in hushes and whispers.
Whereas I voice my opinions loudly. I’m opinionated and I might even come off as rude, but it is only the truth that I’m speaking. And I’ll always be on that hill and I’ll die on that roll of truth.
Even though I’m sure that Sean is guilty for proposing that deal to me because he looks at me with at frown as though it hurts him to see me upset.
But, I think it is only my wishful thinking. I mean a girl can dream, right? Why would me been upset affect him? We are not even friends yet.
He pursed his lips and then said “I’m sorry that I came to. With that stupid proposal in the morning. I am really. very very sorry.” With remorse dripping from his voice.
I was shocked to hear an apology from his mouth. I knew for a fact that this man did not apologize, ever.
But, he did apologize to me. And it meant a lot but, I would not show that to him.
“It was a very bizarre proposal for me to accept.” I said with a straight voice and face. I hid my expression well with a mask of emotion less face.
“Of course it was strange. I do not think that any one has ever done that before.” He said accepting his irrevocable mis step.
“You came to my house in the morning. And…..” I started to say but he best me to it. And, cut me off mid sentence.
“I understand that, But I had an idea and there were no bad intentions from my part. I’m truly very ashamed of my proposal. I understand you’re not the kind of girl who would expect such proposals or accept them for that matter. You have way more self respect than that.” he said. These are exactly the words I wanted to hear. It is good that he understands that I am not ten kind of girl he is used to having around.
“You came to the wrong person with the proposal.” I said to him simply. Not very arrogantly as it was just the plain truth.
“I know, I understand. That you are not the kind of person who would accept such kind of proposal. That’s what I am trying to say.” He said saying sorry again. I swear my heart flutters whenever he says sorry.
“Goodbye, Ava. Sorry for all the trouble.” He said with a remorse filled expression.
Goodbye? Does this mean I would not see him ever again? Oh, God why does the life has to be such a blundering mess?
