Chapter 12

We dash into the scene, where we see Brick fighting with someone.

They come to a halt when Glim yells at Brick, making his eyes even more enraged.

When I saw him, my knees trembled so badly that I almost fell down. Rob Morano, yes he is Rob damn it!

He eventually noticed me starring at him, and I was so stunned that I couldn't even think about what I should do next; I needed to leave with Glim right away, but before I could grasp Glim's hand, she dashed into Rob's direction, assisting him in getting up.

What the hell!

Glim is the kindest person I've ever known; she's always prepared to help strangers in need. Rob is no stranger; he was one of our friends back then, but little did she know, there's something about them that I'm so concerned about right now!

I turn to Brick, who appears to be even more enraged by Glim's actions.

I have a feeling Brick is unaware of the truth, but I can't tell him right now. I can't let Glim live with the pain of her past. Oh my goodness! What am I supposed to do?

"So you're backing him, which comes as no surprise to me?" Brick gasped like if he was having a breakdown.

"You can't simply do anything you want! I'm not sure what Rob did to you to get you so mad right now, but Brick, you can't simply punch everyone who offends you! "She retorted with a cry of her own.

No way! Please, don't cause a ruckus right now, Brick!

"Glim! Let them go, and let's go "I yelled, but she refuses to hear me.

"It's like staring at a fucking thrash when you see both of you together! I can't believe you're such a natural hooker, Glim "Brick exclaimed without even thinking about what he was saying, and I could see he was in misery deep down.

Glim is about to cry, and Rob is in a full mess, so he stands up and uses his thumb to wipe the blood from his lip. He smiles sarcastically at Brick.

"I can't believe how ignorant and foolish you are; this is my first meeting with you, but I can tell you that you don't deserve her," he asserted.

Gosh! I'm not sure how Rob manages to keep his thick face at this point; has he already forgotten what he did? It's getting to be too much for me.

"Both of you are so damn fucking idiots, and by the way Rob, don't you ever come close again to Glim, I am warning you!"

He raised his two hands, smiled reassuringly, and then turned around and walked away, saying only "I will clear my name."

Brick and the crowd have also left, but they are all looking at Glim with suspicion.

"Are there any secrets you're keeping from me?" Glim inquired, her eyes welling up with tears.

"No, why would I?" I lied

"Rob is a great person and our buddy, as far as I recall! Why did you do it?" She seemed to be quite concerned right now.

"Did you also recall how much Brick despised him? He was so envious of him that he tried to scare him away during our senior year, which is why I'm advising him to back off "I lied yet again.

"Remember, Brick and I are over," she said.

"As if," I continued, "but you know it's better if you keep your distance from Rob."

"But you know what, his comments really wounded me; I know him; he's honest and sarcastic, but the way he said it to me a while ago, it really affected me; how can he afford to say all those horrible words in front of me, in front of so many people?" She sobbed as we walked back to the dorm.

"I suppose I did something terrible," she added, "you know, during the graduation party, I blacked out pretty hard and can't remember anything, and I can't ask anyone about that night."

"Perhaps if I hadn't left with my ex-lover previously," I sigh.

Andre is resting against the wall, waiting for Glim, as we approach the door.

"I heard about what occurred, so I came over," he explained, clearly concerned.

"Andre, could you please follow her for a bit, I have an urgent matter to attend to right now" Before I leave them, I give Glim a hug.

I tried calling Brick's number, but he didn't answer, so I went directly to his apartment.

His apartment is within a one-kilometer walk from the university.

I knock but he does not answer, his car is parked in his garage, so I know he is inside

I open the door and, to my surprise, it opens.

I said, "Hey fool, I'm going inside!"

"Brick! come on! I have something important to tell you about Glimm, so come out!" Maybe he's in the room, I shouted again.

Also, the door is now open. Ivana exited the room with her hair in a tangle and her lipstick smudged.

I stare at her with a horrified expression on my face; ugh, I can't bear her.

Maybe this is a bad idea, I suddenly change my mind. Let alone the history dwells in the past. This idiot deserves Glimm anymore!

"Baby, I suppose I'll have to leave now; I'll see you later!" Ivana kissed him and gave me a disgusting vibe as she passed through me.

"How can you let a virus into your room, Brick?" "Brick, you should disinfect your room!" I wail loudly enough for Ivana to hear.

She yells, "Get lost, Bitch!"

Then I close the door before she has a chance to turn around.

I sense the stress that Brick is attempting to conceal from me.

"So, my gorgeous cousin, what brings you here?" He's attempting to seem cool, but I'm too familiar with him. We grew up in the same house.

No, I forgot to recall what I am about to say. But here's a note of warning: if you haven't made any plans to take back Glimm, don't act like a concerned ex-boyfriend; instead, let her move on from you; this kind of behavior you're expressing is just aggravating her. I'm really disappointed with you!

I was about to leave when he said something unexpected.

"Hey, I'd want to ask you a question," he said.

"Make it quick, I'm pressed for time!" "How the hell did Rob and Glimm end up in the same room that night?" he wondered.

I became shaky all of a sudden.

"Someone sends me a video of them, and it just hurts so much because Glimm seems to act like nothing happened at all, like what the hell was that?" he shouted, "after all these years."

Did someone show you a video? I am confused.

"don't ask who, I am asking you first," he said again.

"no Brick, I can't believe that is how you think of her, I pity Glimm for actually getting an idiot selfish boyfriend who never gives a single trust on her!"

"hey she cheated first!" he exclaimed.

"No one cheated Brick! Glimm never cheated on you!

You're the one who cheated on her. Anyway, it's too late, when the time comes that you will uncover the truth, bless your soul brick and I hope regret won't stab your heart a million times.

Get lost my cousin. "
