Chapter 3
My eyes still wandered far away, even after the film finished. For 120 minutes, this was the first time I wasn't sleepy when I saw a romantic film in the cinema, this was really crazy, I got carried away. The story feels so tragic.
"Really good, right? Exceeded my expectations." I said, still being carried away into his fantasy world.
"Yeah, pretty good too." Said Steven, who was embarrassed to admit that he quite liked this film.
"The queen was really crazy, because she didn't accept being married, she made a crazy scandal and slept with the king's half-brother,"
"Is there a continuation to that story?"
"Of course, if it's based on the novel, there are still two more sequels. But, I already know the ending,"
"Oh yeah? How?"
"If I tell you, it won't be fun anymore, right? I want us both to watch the newest sequel again later!" I said shyly, my face turned red. So I thought, does he really like me?
"Of course, let's watch it together again!" He said while smiling sweetly.
"Damn, I want to kiss him." My mind can't stand it anymore. If this place was quiet, I would have pushed him against the wall and kissed his sexy lips.
"Jennie, what are you doing here?" Asked a man from a distance who for some reason made me shudder.
The man walked over to me, anxiety spreading through my body. Strange, I can feel a bad feeling that will happen just by feeling this dark atmosphere.
"Jennie, who is he?" Asked Steven who looked confused. Unable to escape, I was forced to avert my gaze to see who the hell was bringing this unpleasant atmosphere.
"Oh my God," I thought. This is serious, this is really serious, soon there will definitely be a big disaster.
"Jennie, what are you doing here? Who is he?" Ask Edward Freeman, my date or what you could call my boyfriend.
Edward Freeman, who is very tall, started to put his hands on his hips while giving a typical alpha male gaze that made my guts shrink. This is really unlucky, because I know exactly how possessive a man like Edward can be when he's burning with jealousy.
"Who are you?" Edward asked with his eyes glaring sharply right in front of Steven who was starting to tremble. Even though he looked strong, when compared to Edward, Steven was clearly not comparable.
"I-I'm Jennifer's boyfriend," He said. Even so, I could see that there was courage in his eyes that showed that he didn't want to lose to the man in front of him.
"Jennie is your girlfriend? Jennie, is he really your boyfriend?" Edward asked with a dark aura increasingly surrounding him.
"Th-that, he's just a friend!" I answered. The atmosphere became silent for a moment, Steven's eyes changed after hearing my answer and I could see, he looked very disappointed.
"Jen? What are you doing here?"
"Oh damn, here comes another one. What is this all about? Why are those two here?" My mind screamed in fear when I saw the face of my other lover visible behind Edward, who was still very angry.
Christian Simpson, the man I had only been dating two months ago appeared with a confused expression that I could assume was a sign of a major disaster that would bring the history of trash like me to a tragic end.
I stepped back slowly, after I realized Edward was starting to clench his fists as if he was going to hit Steven. Not to mention Steven who was holding back his annoyance and Chris who was getting closer, making me really pressed and almost intending to run away before they killed me alive.
"Jennie, what are you doing here? Who are those two?" Asked Chris, who didn't seem too suspicious of me.
"Who are you? How do you know Jennie?" Edward asked.
"Why? Of course because I'm her boyfriend! Who are you?"
For some reason I could feel a powerful explosion from the three men who had felt the same premonition.
"You shit...!" Edward shouted, just as I expected two minutes ago. He threw his deadly fist at Steven's face and made Steven immediately bounce because of his very strong strength.
"Agh...damn!" Steven groaned in pain. Damn, his eyes must be bruised.
"You damn bastard...!" Edward and Chris started beating each other up, making everyone in front of the cinema surround us like dirty flies attacking a carcass.
I, who had been caught red-handed and didn't have time to explain, tried hard to think about what I should do to get out of the wrath of these two men. Meanwhile, the injured Steven looked very angry and preferred to leave rather than ask me for an explanation.
No, this cannot be allowed. Steven, I haven't even gotten any gifts from him. How could he just leave before I could enjoy his money?
"Steve, wait! Don't go...!" With my remaining strength to chase him, I tried to ignore Edward and Chris who were still fighting. My only hope right now is Steven. He can't just leave me before I get a luxurious gift from him. I won't always have the chance to meet a handsome and rich man like him.
"Steve, wait for me...! I can explain!" I said while taking his hand.
Steven stopped walking, his shoulders showed clearly that he was very disappointed in me.
"Steve, I'm so sorry!"
"Why? Even though I really fell in love with you, Jen!" He said. I was silent, my feelings were very confused. This was the first time a man seemed so sincere to me.
No, this isn't the first time I've seen it, but the first one feels like a long time ago. The sincerity that bastard showed me.
"Damn it, why do I remember him again? Even though he died a year ago." I thought. While I was busy with the sudden memories that appeared in my head, Steven took the opportunity to let go of my hand and ran across the street.
"Steve, wait-"
A mini bus sped towards me, just as I was crossing the road
"Oh no, I'm dead-"
"Hey, get out of the way...!"
A loud crash sounded just as I felt like my body was floating in the air. The sound of people screaming hysterically slowly became fainter, just as my eyes blurred.
"Jennie...!"
The last sound I could hear was Steven's voice screaming my name.
"Am I going to die now?"
