EPISODE 18_ SHE FORGOT?
Ace sat down on his chair, his eyes fixed on Catherine who was jotting down what the teacher was saying.
His mind went back to what happened the previous night.
She doesn't remember him.
That is the only explanation for what happened.
Even though he was drunk, he could still remember everything that happened.
She was confused when his drunk ass told her that he missed her.
He saw the utter confusion on her face which made him question everything too.
Did something happened to her? Or is she just doing whatever it takes to avoid him?
He has never been this confused in his life. He was confused and frustrated trying to get an answer to his many questions.
"You spaced out, man. Are you alright?" Liam asked. Ace nodded his head and looked away from Catherine.
She was messing with his head without even knowing.
He couldn't believe that fact that after so many years she could still mess up with his head like this.
It has been four years.
Four good years but it felt like yesterday. The hurting, the crying, the pain he felt, they all felt new.
He couldn't believe that all those years that he thought something happened to her she was actually living very fine in America.
He tightened his hold on his pen and gritted his teeth.
'I will wait for you'
'I will follow you to the end of the world'
'I love you like no tomorrow'
'I want to be with you'
'I will never leave you'
They were all lies.
She didn't mean anyone of them neither did she fulfilled them. She wasn't just a liar but a promise breaker as well.
Despicable!
Totally disgusting!
"Calm down, we're in class." Liam reminded him.
He took a deep breath.

In and out, in and out for three times before concentrating on the teacher.
Even as he tried to calm down he couldn't remove his concentration from her.
The girl was fucking with his mind without even knowing.
"Who can tell us what you understand about true love." Their English teacher asked.
One person raised her hand and he was surprised to see that Cath also raised hers.
"Yes, Miss Meyers. Tell us what you understand about true love."
Catherine stood up and tucked a strand of her long golden hair behind her ear.
"Well ma'am, I think true love is when you love someone unconditional enough not to do anything that will harm them." She said and Ace scoffed.
True love?
Yeah, true love indeed.
"What of when the one you believed was your true love doesn't love you unconditionally enough to break your heart?" Ace asked.
Catherine glanced back at him and quickly turned back to face the teacher.
He actually enjoys making her uncomfortable.
He enjoys watching her squirm and sweaty whenever he is up close.
He enjoys being the cause of her anxiety.
He wanted her to feel thrice of how he felt when she left him.
****
Catherine just couldn't understand Ace at all.
Sometimes he acts like a big bad bully while sometimes he acts like he longs for something.
He confused her and she so much want to understand him.
She wanted to understand the reason why he hates her so much, the reason why he constantly bully her and derives joy in her pain. She wants to know why he loved making her live miserable.
How she wish she could find out about all that. Things would have been better for her.
"What are you thinking about?" Talia asked her.

It was during lunch and they were in the cafeteria, eating food.
Luckily Ace and Liam weren't there yet, neither was Kisa.
Not surprising since Kisa was Ace's fiance.
"Catherine." Anitra called.
Catherine groaned and concentrated on her food.
"You're going to choke on that food if you don't slow down." Anitra said before taking a seat beside her.
Catherine cursed herself inwardly and pray vehemently that Ace doesn't see her with Anitra.
Why can't they just leave her alone?
She want to be the boring girl with the Rapunzel's hair so badly. Why does she have to catch everyone's attention? She doesn't want that. She doesn't need that.
"What do you want, Anitra? You know she's Ace's right? You will just make trouble if he sees you with her." Talia said but Anitra just shrugged.
He didn't care.
"I won't leave until Catherine talks to me." He said adamantly.
Catherine raised her eyes up to his and raised her eyebrows.
"What do you want to say to me? Why can't you guys just let me be? I don't have money, grades or ranks like most of the girls here so please tell me why is it a must that you have to talk to me? Because I am confused. I am very confused, Anitra Steel." Catherine whispered harshly.
"I told you that you're my key to Ace, I said the truth." Anitra responded shamelessly.
He wasn't even ashamed or remorseful. He felt none of that.
"And I told you that I can't be your key, please leave me alone Anitra. You're not helping me at all, you are adding to the matter." Catherine whispered harshly.
She doesn't like to use that tone on people but they gave been taking advantage of her kind heart so much.
Why would she be a pawn in their cheeseboard? She doesn't want to be a pawn neither does she want to be the player. She just wanted to be left alone.
He wasn't phased by her words and that made Catherine so so angry.
She was average compared to Kisa's beauty and intelligence. Why would they keep bothering her when someone like Kisa remains unbothered? He just couldn't understand it.
"Listen to me... "
She was halfway through her words when she felt the hairs on her neck stand.
Shit.
He is here and he saw her with Anitra; his enemy.
He is going to punish her for it.
