Heart Breaking

Episode 21

Cristine’s Pov:

I walked into my lonely crib (duplex) still in tears.

Daniella already left so am all alone.

I sat heavily on the couch.

I don’t really know why am crying?

Do I love Andrew?

H’ll no…..

That’s not possible… Love is not my kinda thing!

He’s such a j erk!

He has a wife…. I said it!

And he’s been pretending not to have a wife.

Men… ?

They are all the same!

I shook my head as I continued sulking.

“So unfair!” I screamed as I threw the couch pillow away in annoyance

My cell phone suddenly rang aloud.

I picked it up….

It was Daniella.

I gulped as I mopped my face with a handkerchief.

I cleared my throat noisily before picking the call.

?Best… Are you sure you’re OK? That was Dani’s voice

?Yes Best! Am very fine…. I just need sometime alone…. I said

?Is this about him? Tell me girlfriend do you like him?…. Daniella asked as I gasped

?Like who?…. I said pretentiously

Daniella exhaled slowly.

?You know who… she said

?Good night best… I said sharply

?But you haven’t given me an answer…. She yelled

?Sweet dreams bestie! I said as I hung up sharply.

I sniffed as I picked up my already removed shoe and walked upstairs.

Am I being jealous?

But why?

I kept pondering within me.

I was seated at my office busy with some office files as usual.

I’ve always been a busy bee.

There was a slight knock on my door.

“Come in” I said with my eyes fixed on the files and my eyeglass that I was putting on.

It was my secretary Phina.

“Good day ma’am! Someone is here to see you” She said as I rolled my eyes.

“I don’t think I have an appointment with anyone” I said

“Yes ma’am! But he insisted on seeing you” She said

I stopped and stared at her for a while before looking away.

“So it’s a “He” huh?” I asked

“Yes ma’am” Phina said

“Let him in” I said as she walked out of the office.

“I guess it’s Mr Wong!” I thought

Just then, my door swing open and to my greatest surprise, he walked in.

It was Andrew.

My eyes popped out of it’s socket in shock…

“What are you doing here? Go back to your girlfriend!” I screamed crazily….
