Season two episode 19
?Aurora’s POV?
“What the fk? A voice said from the door and we both turned quickly.
Who comes to my room without knocking?
Play boy Asher!
“Asher… What at you doing here? I asked as I try to make a possible space between Dian and I.
He look completely shocked.
He coughed lightly and hummed.
“I….yea I came to ask you if this shirt is okay with my dark blue suit, didn’t know that I was ruining the moment ” he said and scratch his head.
“When did it start? He asked out of the blue.
Dian dip his hands inside his pocket and walk closer to him.
“We have been together for sometime now.” He said and Asher nodded.
“And I’m sorry for not telling you guys, we’re just not ready yet.” He added.
“Dude do you know what you’re getting into? What of your fiance Mabel Malik?
Dian did you even think about the bad names, how the media and the people will paint Aurora’s name when they get to know about this secret relationship? Asher asked frustratedly.
I’ve never see him like this before, he is acting like an overprotective brother whose sister is going on her first date.
He is right anyway, even if we love each other so much, even if he end things with Mabel Malik my image will be tarnish.
I’ll live with the guilt all my life.
“I’ll protect her from that Asher, you don’t understand how happy I’m since we start dating, she is my everything Asher and I’ll fight for her.” Dian retorted and my heart skipped.
Hearing him say that makes all the insecurities I felt to diminish.
I love him so much.
“I’m happy for you though, just hope you’re ready for what’s coming.”he said and smile.
“Aurora, so check out dress, it’s cool or nah? He asked and I chuckled.
Asher is always silly.
“You look hot, I bet all the girls there will want you.” I said and he smirked.
“Do you want me too? He asked. D@mn this guy is too c0cky.
“I think you’ve stayed long enough, out I want to discuss with her.” Dian said and pushed him out of the room while I giggled.
“Are you ready? He asked and I nodded.
He held my hand and we walk out of my room.
“I might ignore you at the award hope you understand.” He said. Even though it hurts to be ignored but I’ll manage. For us.
I nodded and he release my hand and signal me to go first.
I got downstairs and saw Mabel sitting on a couch. Her attire was like that of a Queen.
She look beautiful if I must say and there is something within me that got jealous of her perfect life.
Why can’t my life be perfect too?
But no, it has always been complicated.
She glare at me but I refused to look into her direction.
The boys keep coming out one after the other.
“You look gorgeous Aurora.” Min ho said and winked at me.
“Don’t be silly Min ho, she is my date for tonight.” Bobby said and held my hand.
I’ve decided to go with him, I can’t promise to be his date then refuse at the last second.
“Y’all ready? Dian said as he climb down the stairs his eyes lingering on Bobby’s hand on mine.
How did I got so lucky.
“Hey babe.” Mabel greeted as she stood up from the couch ignoring the presence of the boys and hug Dian.
When she brought her lip closer to his I looked away.
“Okay then, let’s go.” He said and walk towards the door with Mabel on his trail.
Dian’s POV
When Mabel come to kss me I could see the hurt in Aurora’s eyes.
I just want to tell her that the kss mean nothing to me.
It just doesn’t matter because I feel nothing for her but also I couldn’t tell her that because she is right.
Kssing someone is an act of affection and I let Mabel kss me in front of her multiple times.
I’m an horrible boyfriend.
My eyes was on her throughout the drive which took less than an hour.
We got to the award show and Mabel hold tightly on me as the press do their jobs.
After the photoshoots and answering of some questions we went inside the hall.
“I’ll use the lady’s room.” Mabel said and I nodded.
I grab a drink from the water and sip a little. While I was waiting for Mabel a hand hugged me tightly from the back.
I turned to see the person and I couldn’t believe it.
“Valentina? Oh my g0sh it’s you.” I said and hugged her tightly to myself.
“I arrive an hour ago and when I got to the mansion Mrs Russell the cook said I can find y’all here.” She said smiling.
“I missed you.” I said as I caress her cheek.
Her missed her cr@ziness, d@mn she is one h.ell of a friend.
“I missed you too Dian.” She said and peck my cheek. I look over her head and found Aurora staring at us from a little distance.
Oh no!
She’s gon’ misunderstand everything now.
