"That one is good." He said and tap on his phone checking his emails and other stuffs. If it was Catriona he would probably focus all of his attention on her. She doesn't like shopping and he likes shopping clothes for himself so she could wear it after their love making. But now, two months had past since he became friends with Eunice.
"You think so?" Eunice asked and he nodded.
Eunice went to the dressing room and fit it. Then Enzo call Sabrina.
"Hey, can I bring my friend for tonight's birthday celebration of your hubby?"
"No." She said coldly.
"Why? But she knows about it and she's a nice girl."
"Yeah, okay. Whatever." Sabrina said nonchalantly. "It was supposed be a small gathering for my hubby."
"Eunice is already choosing a dress for later."
"Okay. Whatever Enzo. At least you moved on already from Catriona."
Enzo's heart suddenly ache. He hasn't moved on. He's just spending few of his time with a friend while waiting for her. He hasn't fck Eunice and he wasn't interested on getting laid anymore if it wasn't Catriona.
"I'll see you later."
Eunice heard Enzo talking to someone on the phone and she was pleased on hearing that he agreed to be his muse in the gathering. Since it's Gabriel Lawson's birthday, only few would be there. Gabriel's wife settled it for him and she wants to have Enzo all for herself.

Versace is always with them since Enzo don't want to leave the dog. She actually hate dogs but since she has to get along to him, she have to get along with the dirty and ugly beast. Versace seemed calmed and doesn't sniffle on her dirt yet.
After buying the dress and the shoes where he pay for it, she wrapped her arm on his arm while on the other hand, he's hold Versace's lace. He just let her since he treats her like a sister. But it was a good step though. She's close to him.
"Where do you want to eat?" He asked and his mood seemed like changed.
"Let's go to vegan today. I don't want to ruin my diet." He nodded.
Soon, they are in a vegan restaurant. She ate too little, Enzo note it and told her that it is okay to eat more. Eunice is skinny and thought to herself that she was sexy. But for Enzo, sexy would be Catriona. Her body was perfect. Fit and athletic.
Eunice's body would also be good and make men droll but he wasn't that interested. After eating, they went to the parking lot for them to leave. Enzo open the car door for her. But before she get it. She thought that it might be the best moment for both of them.
Which stupid man wouldn't get attracted to her? She wrapped her arms around his nape and she tip toe. She press her lips to him and parted his mouth. Enzo didn't respond and was stunned but his eyes closes and because of his vulnerability, he kiss her back passionately and eagerly. Missing one person only. He miss kissing her.

The beautiful woman seemed happy and show a big affection toward Enzo. It pains her more that she forget to breathe. She watch as the woman wrapped her arms around him and kiss him. after few seconds, he wrapped his arms around her and kiss her back passionately.
Catriona couldn't watch anymore but she watch them until she heard a bark of the dog. She immediately hid to her car and started it. She was shaking and panicking. She turn the car and left and the dog barks and run to her direction. Enzo had seemed to wake up when the leash has been pull from his hand.
Versace is following someone.
"Hey, Versace!" He calls out. The dog keep running fast and he run fast as well. He was following an unfamiliar car. He whistle and Versace stopped and keep barking and wanted to run after the car. "Hey," He took the leash and then he patted him. "What's wrong?
Catriona's tears was hot and falling from her cheeks. Her heart has been clenched by a bare fist and she couldn't breathe. She keeps driving fast and almost broke the traffic laws. She stop in the corner and exhales. Finally, she had a chance to breath but it was hard for her to catch it like she's been suffocated.
She lean her head on her seat and smack the steering wheel.
"You stupid woman!" She scowl at herself. "Why do you feel this way?!" she started punching her chest where her heart is located. It was so much in pain that her whole body couldn't take it as well.
She started sobbing as she remember his promises. He was head over heels on her. That's what he said. He wanted her in his bed, only her and no one else. He wanted to marry her but she decline him. And he promise that it will be only her. Men, they promise something and only promise to break it.
"Stop crying!" She told herself but she cry more and more and her heart has been comforted a little. Once she's calm, she drove back to her house. She wore eyeglasses until she reach her unit.
She put the dress away and she went to bed. She pull the pillow and hug it. Memories came. They made love here before. She slid off from bed and was disgusted on herself for being such a fool to fall in love. Then she laugh at herself.
"Stupid, Catriona. Falling in love was a trap and you fall for it. You aren't meant to fall in love." She punch the wall that it almost leave mark. Her fist bleed but she care no less about it. It wasn't that painful compare to the pain on her chest.
She lean on the wall and her butt fall down on the floor. She stay there leaning there and stare at the bed as her memories with him on that bed flashback like a movie.
"Karma is bitch and this is what you get for breaking his heart. He has the right to move on." She smile. "At least you wouldn't feel guilty all along." She chuckle to herself for the ironic events. But as she laugh, tears was flowing from her eyes.
Once she's calm, she just sat there though she was thirsty and her throat is dry. She stay there for hours staring at the bed. She heard the door opens and Tequila calls out. She forget about the time.
"Hey!" Tequila call her and he stop. His heart suddenly broke seeing his baby sister in that way. Though they aren't blood related, for him Catriona and Veronica were his baby sisters. Instead of talking, he took a glass of water and gave it to her. She drink little and he sat down with her. "I hate that Karma is bitch." He said. It should be a joke and he knows that she would laugh but she chuckle.
"You are right. I don't have the right to fall in love with such a man."
"Stop saying that. We all have rights to fall in love. But behind that love, there's always pain that we have to endure."
"I shouldn't get involve." She drink again and finish it.
"Fuel up, your heart needs more comfort for later." He patted her head. "I am always here to give you a crying shoulders, baby sister."
