Chapter 8.

Jhel felt relieve when the two cooperates in her plan. She actually knew who the guy is and so she planned to read what is running inside his mind so she pretend to be just a boring lady whos seeking for a companion. The two ladies started to enjoy chatting while Jacob is just listening to them and laugh occationally when somethings funny was brought by the two girls. Not long after someone arrived in the area, Its Amy. She pouted her lips as if shes feeling jelous for the new found friend of Jhel. Why are you not inviting me? hmfp.. Ohh its Amy(Cielo shouted with an exitement) Come come You have to join us now since you were here. Jhel said and started pulling Amy to sit beside her and Jacob. The drinking never stop in just one bottle they continue drinking until all of them was a little tipsy. Jhel thought it was the right timing to open up about the topic that she is eager to enter. " Oh by the way Jacob I want to thank you again for helping our little Cassie" Its nothing Jhel, i just did what I knew is right(Jacob replied) You know Jacob? Cassie is such a wonderful person. It just so happend that she lost both of her parents at a very young age, and their memory doomed her for several years. its just last year when we luckily pushed her to face the world again. She used to locked herself in her room without food or even water to drink. Were so afraid that we might loose her if we dont do something. Jacob was stunned by the story of Jhel about Cassie. he never knew that the person he keeps on bullying was already doomed. She was already broken but be keeps on beating her hard. The realization hits his heart and mind. He couldnt believe he was actually beating the wrong person. He thought Cassie was just like Ana, the nerdy girl he used to love but when she transform into a classy girl, the first thing that she did was to drastically put Jacob into the trash. That is the reason why Jacob is so irritated with the sight of Cassie. He look down on Cassie specially when she decided to show off her real beauty. The other details of Jhels story was blocked by the deep thoughts of Jacob. He couldnt hear anything from Jhel because he felt so guilty about what he did on Cassy. if only he knew that details of Cassie's past, he might have treated her well but its too late now. He already build a wall between him and her.

Base on the facial reaction of Jacob towards her story, Jhel could say that Jacob was moved because of that. She knew its still too early to celebrate but atleast she transmitted the idea to Jacob without him noticing her intention.

When the clock hits the sixth in the afternoon. The four is starting to rest, the alcohol content inside their bodies was on a higher level now and all of them was already tipsy. Suddenly Cassie showed up in the front of the door. She looks more better now. Her cheeks are now back to its natural pinkish tone. She notice that the four persons in front of her was all drunk base on their faces. Tsk what does it mean? You guys dont wait until i get well and celebrate without my presence? the three girls just laugh because they sense the jelousy in the face of Cassie while Jacob just stay quiet because the guilt inside him was started to occupied every inch of his body. He doesnt know what to do so he just stand from the couch and told the girls that he have to leave now. Amy pouted her lips as if trying to look like a pity one. " Can you just stay for a while? Cassie just woke up and now your leaving so soon. please give us some more time We still want to continue chatting with you. Amy trying to stop Jacob from leaving but Jacob insist. He cant afford to even look on Cassies face now. Jhel sense that Jacob is now struggling so she tell Jacob that if he really have to leave now then it would be fine but he has to promise to find time to drink with them again. Jacob just nodded and give them a smile but before he leave, Cassie called him. "Jacob! I just want to thank you for helping us earlier". Jacob Skipped a beat upon hearing his own name in the mouth of Cassie but het next words woke her up from his own sentiments and just nodded again to Cassie. Jacob then leave the area and the four girls continue chatting as if tommorrow will never come. The three of them never suspect that Jhel already did something to melt down the heart of a stone man Jacob.
