Chapter 9: THE AFTER PARTY

The after party was so boring as I was sad that Adam had indirectly rejected me.

"I have no feelings for you." These words keep on repeating in my mind again and again.

As my overthinking kept on going, I started to have a little hope. Maybe I can make him fall for me? Yeah, maybe. *sigh*

Well, I didn't know that my hope could crash like that. As I saw that scene before my eyes, "There is no HOPE FOR ME."

Flashback before my hope got crushed:

"Lady and gentleman, attention please," said Edmond.

"I now declare that the dance party is open."

A slow but soothing music began to make its way through the whole room, but my eyes were only glued to him. It was unexpected that his eyes were glued to another girl. "Who is THAT girl?" "She is a pretty girl."

Well, I should probably give up.

They both danced to the whole song, and they both shared a passionate kiss.

And I... RAN. I RAN AWAY.

Flashback ends.

I ran away to the bathroom. The girl inside the bathroom helped me with my make-up because, unconsciously, my tears were falling down. Is this how it feels to be in love? Then I don't want to fall in love again.

As the girl was about to go, she told me this: "Be careful, someone is following you."

"WHO?!"

And you guessed it right, she disappeared.

After she told me that, I kept on looking everywhere around me. That girl actually SCARED me. At this moment right now, I want to know the reason why "someone" is following me. But I guess there will be a time when I will know that someone.

WAIT!... Is it the killer who killed my grandma?

Maybe, or is it Adam? No, he is surely dancing with her.

As I kept on walking to the dance room, I bumped into someone.

"Sister, look out please," said Bella.

"Sorry, did I hurt you?"

"No, but you can hurt yourself like that." "Stop thinking and walk with your head up."

"Yes, yes Bella. I'm sorry. "

"Don't worry."

"Let's go back."

"Don't you need to go to the bathroom?"

"Ah, no. I looked for you. Now I've found you. Let's go back. "

It was again boring.

Some people were drunk, others were making out.

But I'm happy that the after party was finished.
