[5] The Betreyal

A loud scream woke me up. No Sophia, no Babi, no anything. It was just me, and me, and me.

"SEAN!?!?😡" I heard my mom yelled. I responded "Waaaaiiitt!" while running to her as fast as I could. I saw Alice beside her.

"What is it, Mo..?" She didn't  even let me finished my question, she then slapped me on my face. I just cried since I didn't know what was happening.

I asked Alice too, what she did was just ran away. It was suspicious, I think she's somewhat related to this mess. But... Yeah I don't know.

After Mom realized of what she just did, she apologized to me. Then... we had a 'deadly serious' talk.

I asked my mom, again "What's the reason behind all of this, mom?"

"You... can't be with him" She replied.

"W-what? Who? R-Reign? We didn't do anything. Did we violate any rules? C'mon, Mom answer me!" I said furiously. It just makes me look guilty.

"No?" My mom asked. The she showed me a video through her phone. A video of Reign and I last night! The moment where I kissed him and even where he topped me! "Then tell me this isn't you!!" She continued.

All I could say was "W-who took that v-vide" I was cut by mom "Alice. The girl ealier, thanks to her."

"M-mom! I can explain. It's not what you thi..." I tried to explain but she just cut my words.

"You can't be with him, please choose people that have the same status with us, we're not just any mediocre out there" Mom begged me.

I reason out "Mom, he's not just somebody, he's Rei..!"

I was cut again, and the last few sentences from my mom were "Stop this nonsense right now! Or we'll be forced to fire Reign's dad. I know you don't want that to happen, right?" She walked out and went to work.

I can completely recall the moments last night, and I remember that Alice's father managed to fetch her up. How the hell did she managed to take that video? I do really need to talk to her about this, right now.

I asked my Uncle Harold if I could bid my friends farewell. He simply said yes, so I ran as fast as I could to Alice's house and screamed "Alice!?! Come out and talk to me you B*TCH!?!"

I knew this was all Alice's fault. She should have talked to me first!

She didn't come out. "Alice! Come on, talk to me!!! You should have just talked to first me first, rather than what you did earlier!!" I screamed again but she didn't come out.

What I did next was I went to Reign's house. "Oh Babi, why are you here and... Why is your cheek so red? Who did that?" He aked seriously.

I couldn't let him know or else... I'll lose him... forever.

"It's just nothing 'hehehe'" I responded, ending with a forced laugh.

I didn't even noticed that my mom's slap left a huge red mark on my face.

"So... What are you up to? You know the rules; no drinks no travels." He asked.

I just hugged him tightly for the last time and said "We'll see each other again, soon." without any explinations.

I know he's confused but when I noticed my tears to fall, I immediately break our hug and gave him my goodbye.

Lastly, I went to Sophia's place. I told her everything. She cried.

"I shouldn't have let my self fell in love with that B*tch." she said.

"I'm sorry about that, how can I help you with this situation?" she added to her statement.

"Nothing, just keep everything a secret from Reign. You know how much I love that guy, and I don't want him to suffer." I replied.

"Okay, but... what would you do about... Alice? I know you hate her now, and so I do." she said.

I just hugged her one last time before I said  my 'goodbye'.

When I went back home, my things were already packed; Two big bags, and 1 small box in total. "We're living now, are you sure your'e okay with this?" Uncle Harold asked.

I blurted "As if there was another choice. My parents' words are rules and I'm pretty sure you know that too."

"Yeah, right." he laughed.

When I opened the door, I saw Reign infront. I tried to pass him but he hold my arms extremely tight.

"Babi, you're leavin' me now?!?" He asked growl.

I replied "For the best" then I faked smile.

"Why? Is this the reason why you said 'We'll see each other, again' earlier?" He asked angrily.

I nodded and continue to get inside the car.

As I closed the door, he put his hand through causing the window to stop closing. He cried and begged "Please B-Babi, don't leave me. I thought you were never gonna leave me alone? Did you forget our promise to each other? You promised me when we were little."

"Pwease, don't h-hurt me. I didn't do anything to y-you." I cried.

I was being bullied when Reign saw me.

He immediately punched and he kicked the bullies. He then managed to dodge the bullies' attack.

It was the last time I became the target of those bullies.

Thanks to this guy.

"T-thanks Reign!✨" I said.

"It's not for free. You need to love me" he responded.

As an innocent "I-I already love you, you're my f-friend. I love m-my friend." I replied.

His expression changed; from smirked to completely sadness.

"Trust me, I did this for us" I replied.

I noticed his expression changed; from sad to fierce, he became emotionless as his tears started to fall.

As the engine started I closed the window again.

He murmured something but I didn't heard what he said. Fortunately I can lip read and able to red his lips saying "You'll be mine, soon..." Then the car rolled.

Am I just being deceived by my eyes?

...

Am I?
