32
I was NOT speechless after hearing its voice. I’m pretty sure the Daniella calling is Daniella Monroe. Voice, she’s really the Daniella I know.
“Hello? Clyde, babe?” I was shocked to hear what it said.
Babe? Babe does he call Clyde?
“Hello ? babe, why are you not answering-”Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
“Hello.” I cut it. The voice was cold. The face has no emotion.
“Who are you? Why did you answer? Where’s Clyde-oh! Don’t tell me, Clyde’s cellphone was stolen-”
“I’m Nathania.” I cut it again.
The other line was silent for a few seconds.
“Nathania? What’s your surname? I’m Clyde’s fiancee and I know all of his friends and colleagues but I don’t know anyone named Nathania, mind telling me your surname?” My world seemed to stop when he said this.
First, he calls Clyde honey. Now he said she was his fiancee. my heart ached at what I heard and was filled with astonishment. Gone is the emotionless face I had before. It has now been replaced by astonishment.
“F-Are you his fiancee?” I stuttered the question.
“Yes. I am Daniella Monroe and I am the fiancee of Clyde Marcus Salvadore. we’ve been engaged for almost two months now. Anyways, who are you really? Why do you have his cell phone? Did you steal it-” I didn’t let him finish and ended the call.
Tears welled up in my eyes. I put the cellphone down with a trembling hand and when a tear fell from my eye, I immediately wiped it away.
I went back to the closet and got something Clyde would wear and brought it to me. Just in time, the door opened and he came out freshly bathed.
“I’m done. Your turn.” her posture as the towel was wrapped around her waist.
His hand ruffled his wet hair and looked at me with a smile. I looked away from him and put his clothes on the bed.
“Those are your clothes. I’m just going to take a shower.” I got over it. I feel his eyes following me. When I entered the bathroom and locked it, I immediately leaned against it. My feet are shaking. The difficulty acted as if I learned nothing from Daniella. Though weak, I forced myself. I stand.
I don’t know how long I’ve been in the bathroom. I just realized that Clyde was knocking.
“Nathania? What are you doing there? It’s almost two hours. Why are you late? Are you okay?” I heard it shout from outside the bathroom.
I stood up from lying in the bath tub and grabbed the towel. I wiped my body and folded the towel. I took my clothes and slowly put them on.
“Nathania? Honey?” I felt annoyed at the last thing he said.
Honey? he calls me honey while he calls Daniella babe? I feel like throwing up.
I left the bathroom without a word after getting dressed. I immediately found Clyde standing in front of the bathroom door. When I got out, Clyde’s worried face immediately appeared to me.
“What happened? What took you so long? Are you okay?” He looked at my body and even touched my arm. I immediately took it back and didn’t look at him and went to bed.
“I want to sleep.” I said in a cold voice.
“But your hair is still wet.” It made me nod. I stood up and went to the mirror where the combs, perfumes, the blow dryer and others were.
I took it to dry my hair. I looked at Clyde from the mirror. He was sitting on the bed while frowning while staring at the cellphone. I already know what he is doing. I know Daniella has something to do with what she’s doing.
He suddenly stood up from his seat and looked at me.
“I’m just going to do something outside. I’ll be back.” There was a smile on his lips. Even against my will, I nodded to him. he started walking and closed the door before finally getting out.
I also stood up and followed it. When I got out of the room, I saw him holding his cellphone to his ear while walking to the rooftop. I walk slowly while following him.
“Hello.” I heard it talk about the nomenclature. I hid by the door. Enough to go unnoticed.
“What?”
“No. My phone wasn’t stolen. I was taking a bath earlier. What? Who answered you? A girl?” My heart beat faster. Daniella was definitely the one he was talking to and I was also sure that I answered the call earlier that they were talking about.
“You’re wrong. I don’t have a woman here.” My eyes widened at what he said. Liar!
“I don’t know what you’re saying Daniella. Maybe you’re just hallucinating.” it stopped and sighed.
“Yes. I’m going home. Don’t worry. Just wait okay? Maybe next week. Okay, okay. Bye.” I saw it take a deep breath and looked up.
“Yeah, love you too.” It felt like my heart was pierced with needles and knives from the pain of the last thing he said.
my tears kept flowing. It hurts. It hurts to know and hear that he also loves Daniella.
I knew it. I shouldn’t have been carried away. I shouldn’t have given him another chance. I wish I listened to my mind rather than my heart. I wish I hadn’t given him a chance to enter my heart again!
The pain is stupid. Hope is painful. It’s a pain in the ass. It’s painful to know that the one you love, someone else loves you.
I believed he loved me because he said so! I thought everything he said was true. Because if he loves me, he should love no one else. If he loves me, there should be no Daniella.
All I thought was that his feelings for me were true. I thought everything he said was true. It turns out that he has been engaged to Daniella for two months. To engage it while I was still hiding from him.
It hurts. My heart hurts.
