CHAPTER 3:

PARTY

Najal insisted to drive me to the party venue

and that place means in my workplace ***** hotel.

the venue is in the back of our hotel which has a large Swimming pool and a large garden background.

At the time I arrive guard Aljur access me to the place but first we need to enter from the front to the backyard.

I and guard Aljur walk in with the glare of different people from the hotel while walking Leng with a wide smile on her face runs after me.

"the manager you are so gorgeous now...your dress looks oh" She arrive and look at me from head to too then stop at my dress"expensive and it's fit for you your curve shown up" she studied my whole after studying my dress the next thing I know she's hugging me..

'damn these women 😅'

'Leng stop it already Manager leng have to go to the event it already started" Guard Aljur pull her from hugging me.

"you so suck Leng, this is your fault if my dress will ruin because you hugged me" I laugh while fixing myself.

she just pouted and help me"fine but let me help you" I nod she then held my purse

"Goodness," Leng pull me to run after the venue when A loud Sound Beat from the backyard "that started..faster Z, you're already Late" I move my head from left to right my feet hurt from running in the hallway and my Arm from pulling off this girl..

why do I have to be there exactly??

I don't even know.

the fact that I'm gonna hurt myself later does not feel right

I miss my colleagues in high school but if I think about what happened now I just wanted to prison myselfin my room and cry.

what do I except that he's going to wait for me until 10 years with no contact.

he has a child and maybe he also have a wife.

he's married that is expected.

he has his own family

and me??

here I am working from day to night waiting to meet him again and reunited.

I breathe out

"don't worry you'll be there on time" Leng instantly said.

I just smile thinking that saying it because of my heavy Breath out a while ago..

1000000 years later we're in front of backyard door

"there,we're here, fix yourself and enter..you're okay now right?"

"I always am" I falsely smile and push her a little "Go you have work, boss will be mad at you if you're to leave your place"

"okay, okay...I gonna go, bye fighting!" I laughed out loud "GO"

she smile while running back then me??

I held my chest, It's pumping so hard

"do I have to do this??" I held my purse tightly that I don't even know I'm holding it and Breathe out Hard

"I have to!!..yes I am..i can do this..Zelle Zinary you're a tough Lady, you can do this, just act as normal as you can"

I heavily Breath again and open the door.

first thing I see Are the different lights and a loud Voices..

I check my phone and its already 6 pm the invitation says 5pm I'm 1hour late.

my eyes screening every corner to find my friends but truthfully him too,hopefully I can't find him with his wife..

Please don't, help me God.

"Hey Zinary, hello 👋 " I wake up from my long dream and face the person who does that.

"Hey, what's up" I approached him with a warm smile

"I am Mike Evans your classmate did you remember??"

"ah" the truth is I don't remember "hahaha of course yes. how are you?" I laughed to hide it?

"I'm fine, I got a good life"

"Is that so,its good for you"

"thank you by the way I'm with our other classmates there" he point out his hand to the table with different faces laughing and talking beside the pool

"can I?" I ask him sincerely

"of course you may, you're part of us,by the way Xharlene, Haela with the other member of your group are at the other table behind us, come on" He walk in and I am too.

in the road of following Mike my Heart can't stop pumping hard and my eyes don't want to stop staring at every Guy in the party one by one.

"Classmates!, Zinary is her lets welcome her"

"Zinary you're here, oh my gosh where did you buy your dress,it's so good to you" Atha said.

Like she always do, Spying others and talking about his or her upwards and downwards..

"yeah thank you, I got this with a friend of mine "

"come on sit," Says the person who I don remember at all

"no thanks I'll go with my group" then I continue to walk, they nod and simple Talk about me

that's what I expected

back snubber tsk!

I didn't know that my friends are now waving their hands at me

" Zini, I miss you, darling, how are you, what's life?"Charlene wave her hands and run towards me and I bend my Arms to a hug when I see Anne Coming also

"I miss you too you two, I'm Fine living here with my dream work"I laugh and hug them both

we're hugging and talking when I see Haela walking towards me a bitter smile written on her face

" Hey Haela, What's with the face?"After we embraced they turn their faces to where I'm looking.

I accidentally saw their happy reaction faded but in just a second

back to their normal reaction when they realized I'm looking at them.

"come on, sit and eat here, I'll gonna call a waiter" Anne left and came back with Guy wearing a waiter outfit.

"Vodka spritz and one slice of strawberry cake please" the waiter just it down and then left

" so, what now?"Ann asks as she begins to drink her Pina colada ladies drink "who's the lucky one here?" she secretly laughs.

"Nothing much, working as a secretary with my damn hot boss" Xharl take her bag and pull something with her sling bag. "aherm this is my boss he's a business tycoon his name is"

"mamaaaahh that dude guy wants to--oh Auntie you're Here you said. that you want to talk to my parents right?, mama Auntie Z asks me if she could talk to you or dad that day you buy something outside Auntie knock at the door and" that kid, she's Lennon child

that kid who I bump into the hallway

damn it!! I feel terrible thinking this is happening

I want to bursts but I don't know what to say

I want to act like nothing but I can't do anything

this is bad my tears want to flow but No I can't

"Mae go to your dad for a while Auntie Z and I we'll talk for a minute," Hael said

"Come here little girl" I try to smile sweetly asking her to sit on my lap "who's your father? what is his name?" I comb her hair asking sweetly, I give her some of my cake too.

this is too much for me, this situation is not right

"Z"

"I don't want an explanation right now Ann"

"Please listen to me Z, let the kid go to her father first we'll talk after" Haela pleased

I glare at her "don't worry I won't eat your child, I'm just asking her"I turn to the child one more time to ask "who's your father little kid?"

"he's--"

"I'm her dad" A voice from behind interrupted before a child can speak

"Lennon" I look at Haela who Says his name and turn to him.

this is neither a good nor bad idea

why is this happening again to me

this is not right

why do I always have to sacrifice my happiness but if this is true

how can I be a third party??

I've been a part of his life but I left

and now this happened

how do I face this reality

I bitterly smile "Xharl, please pinch me" I whispered that to her ear after I approach her.

she doesn't talk back and do what I said

I feel a pain in my arm but that's not the same pain I feel now it hurts more, it hurts even more when I first felt broken.

my heartfelt like it was being squeezed and pierced by a dozen needles

I want to shed tears but I can't

I don't want to talk, it's also my fault that I didn't take care of him.
