Filthy Rich by Atarah Yvaine (electronic reader txt) 📖

I can hear that he put a paper bag in the table near me. I am still looking at his shoes.

"I already ate." that's the only thing that comes to my mind.

"I know you're not yet full so eat that or it will just go to waste." he said. I felt stiff and my breathing is so unstable. I'm so nervous.

"Okay" I start fidgeting and biting my lips. God help me.

There's a silence between us. I hope he doesn't hear my loud heartbeats.

I heard him taking a deep breath.

"I am not here to force you. I want you back yes, I want you back. So bad. I wouldn't hire all of those fuckers if I didn't. I want to see you and the hell I want to know you're okay. I should've let you go I know but I can't sleep at night wondering why you left me. So, I want you to fucking tell me straight in the face why did you do that. If you don’t want to be with me anymore, tell it to me and I will let you go. " he said and I felt his pain. The guilt is starting to eat me.

I stayed silent. I don't know what to say. My tongue is cut.

" Tell me!! " he shouted and I close my eyes. My tears pooled down to my cheeks.

I shake my head. I don't want to tell him that I didn't want him anymore because I want him more now than before.

"Damn woman. Fuck." he cursed and curse and curse. I let him let go of his anger. I deserve it anyway. I hurt him.

He is so nice because given the fact that he is angry he still controls himself from hitting me.

"Why don't you speak! Tell me and I'll let you go." though my eyes are already blurry I still see his shoes moved towards my direction.

He cupped my face gently and make me look up to him.

I can't clearly see him but he looks so handsome.

"Speak." he said with grinding teeth. He holds no emotion on his face. His eyes are looking straight to mine.

I am sobbing right now because of overflowing emotions.

"No" I whispered and shake my head. I see his eyes sparkle. -

"I'm tired. I want to go home." he said

He let go and turned his back on me.

I panicked. I am afraid that he will go and leave me here so I hold on to the hem of his dress shirt.

He stopped moving.

"So... S.. Sorry." I manage to say while sobbing so hard. My head feels heavy and my eyes are so puffy.

"I am giving you the right to decide. I will not force you this time. You have all the freedom to choose. Stay or leave."
