TRUTH AND LIES
(Prom night)
Do I love her or not?
Episode 37
Alyssa’s Pov continues:
“Alyssa?” He called in shock and I could swear my heart stopped beating.
Oh, God; no.
This should be a dream.
I moved away from Jeremy and starred at Mico who was still looking traumatic.
But…what was he doing here?
“You…you…” he tried speaking but paused and scoffed.
I could see pains in his eyes.
“Sir, I…”
“You told me you wanted to check up on something”
“Sir, it’s…its not what you think”.
“Really? It’s not what I think?”
He sent his fingers And turned to the direction of the door.
God, please.
I can’t be a victim of Mico’s anger.
Then he upended the door and started walking out.
I looked at Jeremy and he winked at me.
God, I hate this guy.
I rushed out of the room immediately and kept calling after Mico.
“Sir…Sir…” I called vainly but he ignored me and continued walking away.
“Sir Mico, please. I can explain…”
“You’re my date, Alyssa!” He suddenly stopped and yelled at me.
“You were supposed to be with me. What were you even thinking?”
I opened my mouth in shock and looked around.
Few students were around and some were beginning to draw near because the scene was taking place close to the hall.
I looked at Mico and anger was reflecting in his eyes.
“I…I can explain” I said in a faint voice.
Tears were beginning to build up in my eyes.
“I thought you were someone I could trust. But it seems you’re no different from the other ladies.
If you really like him, then go ahead. I’m not stopping you” he said and turned around.
What?
“Sir…”
“Stay away from me!” He snarled and walked away and the students around gasped.
I felt a cut in my heart as I starred at him with disbelieve.
I think I’ve just received a heartbreak.
I looked around and my eyes ran into Alexa who was smiling.
All the students were surprised.
What have I done?
I started running away, finally releasing the tears.
I can’t believe I had just gotten Mico to hate me.
How I could be so stupid?
How did this even happen?
I kept crying as I headed for the gate and immediately, a car drove to where I was and pulled up in front of me.
“Ma’am Alyssa, please get in. Sir Mico had ordered me to take you home whenever you wanted to leave” the driver came out and told me and I didn’t even think twice about it
I got in immediately.
I just wanted wanted go go home.
I sat at the back seat and continued weeping.
This prom was meant to be the best night of my life.
How did everything change so drastically?
Why did Jeremy have to kiss me?
And why did Mico have to come in at that moment?
Everything was so complicated and frustrating.
I can’t believe my Mico is mad at me.
I recalled his hurtful words to me.
‘I thought you were someone I could trust.
It seems you’re no different from the other ladies.
Stay away from me!’
More tears poured from my eyes as I thought of them .
What does Mico think of me now?
I needed someone to talk to.
I brought out my phone and called the only closest friend I have.
Mico’s Pov:
Gosh!
What have I done?
Why did I have to say all those things to Alyssa?
I tried to control it.
Trust me; I tried
She shouldn’t had followed me and make me say all those hurtful things in front of the students.
Although, I’m hurt
Seeing Jeremy and Alyssa pierced through my heart and left me heartbroken .
But why would Alyssa kiss Jeremy?
She isn’t that kind of lady.
I know; but at that moment, my anger wouldn’t let me think straight.
It’s a good thing I didn’t end up hitting her.
What if this was actually a set up by Jeremy?
And I remember I had seen Alexa smiling when I was leaving?
I know Alyssa and I know she’s a not that cheap like other ladies to give in to Jeremy so easily.
Oh, God!
I covered my face with my palm and sighed.
I should have tried to control my anger.
Well, it really wasn’t my fault
I was sitting at the back seat, already on my way home when one of my phones started ringing.
It was Alyssa.
I picked it up immediately.
“Alyssa?” I said anxiously and had almost added ‘I’m sorry”
“Nigel” she called in a whimpering tone and I could tell she was crying.
Oh, God.
She must have been really hurt.
“A…Alyssa, are you okay?” I asked, touching my forehead.
‘
“Mico yelled at me, Nigel.
He asked me to stay away frome him” she said painfully and sobbed.
My heart was breaking.
“Mico? What happened?’ I asked.
“He caught Jeremy and I kissing.
But it wasn’t my fault.
I had received a text message from a strange number, asking me to meet him in the restroom because he had something important to tell me.
But when I got there, I discovered it was Jeremy and before I could get away from him, he kissed me and that was when Mico came in”.
Right.
I knew it.
I knew she must have been framed up.
No wonder I had also gotten that text message telling me to go to the restroom.
It was all a plan
‘He was so mad at me” she continued tearfully
“I tried explaining things to him and he told me to stay away from him.
All the students were watching.
I’m so hurt Nigel.
Mico hates me now.”
I bent my head and sighed.
I don’t hate you Alyssa
I never will.
“Where are you?” I asked, touching my forehead.
It was already feeling hot.
“I’m already on my way home” she replied.
“You’re in a cab?”
“No. One of Mico’s drivers giving me a ride”
I flinched at that.
What driver is she talking about?
I can’t remember telling any of my drivers to take her home and that is because I had actually intended taking home myself after the prom.
And the driver that had actually driven her to the prom wasn’t even around.
So what driver is she talking about?
I think she must be mistaken.
