Let Him Love You First

After leaving everything behind, Zoey needs to go home and face all she have left. She thought time can heal all wounds but after reuniting with her friends, she has to face her mortal nemesis as well as her ex boyfriend. Little did she know that there is a guy who is watching her from a far that will help her mend her shuttered heart. --- To: America Message: You know what? If you thought that Zoey was wrong for treating you badly, wouldn't it be better for the two of you to sit down, relax and talk? Remember that you've been friends since childhood. Reply: Earl it's easy to say but hard to do. Yes! We've been considering each other as best of friends but why did she decide to believe other people's hearsay? For their seven years of friendship, Zoey could say that America is a hard-headed person. Zoey pretended to be someone just to have a decent conversation with her. All she wanted was to know the truth. It started when one of her classmates saw both America and Michael, Zoey's boyfriend, at the mall. At first, when she heard about this, she thought that what was the deal of seeing them? What if they were buying some stuff together? She naïvely thought that it would be better than her best friend was on good terms with her boyfriend. In that way, she can help and understand them if they were fighting. But all of those thoughts disappeared in an instance when her classmate showed her a picture wherein they caught in the act of kissing and holding each other's hands while buying Cinema Tickets. She dialed America's phone number and tried to ask where she was last weekend when someone saw them together. America answered her calmly, "I was at home sleeping. Why? You knew that Mom was mad at me, and I grounded and forbad going outside last weekend, right?" After she had heard her reply, she thought that her response was like a big slap on her face; she knew that she was lying because her friend's evidence was authentic. The photo has a date on it, and it was impossible for anyone to edit or change the said photo because she used a film camera. Zoey thought of it before she called Michael and asked the same question. After Michael had answered her phone call and heard her question, his forehead instantly covered with cold sweat. Did Zoey found out about them? He tried to calm himself first before answering, "Babe I've told you that Dad was still mad at me and ordered me to stay at home and that was the reason I couldn't pick you up after your ballet lesson." Little did he know that his answer was exactly the same as what America has said to Zoey? Zoey started to have a doubt about them. After that week, Zoey found more about their illicit romance. They indeed are having an affair behind her. When most of her friends tried to convince to break it up with him, Zoey finally decided to do it. She then again called and asked him to meet her at the park near our village. When he arrived she immediately said, "Mike, let's end this." At that moment, she was already shredding her tears as she was asking him to end their relationship. Mike wanted to hold her hand but before he even had the chance to grab her left hand Zoey already stepped backward to avoid him. "Z I'm sorry. I know I'm wrong. I know I wronged you but please don't this to me. I was tempted, I seduced. I don't like nor love America. Babe, please don't say that." Who would have thought that Michael has the audacity to say that? Zoey was confused about what to believe; she didn't know if Michael was telling the truth or if it was another set of lies. But before she turned around and leaves, she took aback when she saw him kneeling and crying on the ground while asking for her forgiveness. She took them back her words.

"Will you be my girl forever?"

Zoey was taken aback from his question. She thought that this night will be like her other nights of contemplations about what had happened to her throughout the day. She used to analyze today's actions either are they reasonable or just out from her tantrums.

Nickel's confession was really out of blue because she didn't suspect that he is into her ever since. Which gave her the upper hand compared to the other girls around. "But why did you kiss May?"

"I, what? I never kissed other girls except you. This is embarrassing but you are my only kiss. What kiss are you talking about?" he is confused about how and when did he and May had contact with. He wanted to know how come Zoey thinks that he cheated on her although they aren't an item yet.

"I saw you at the beach, while I was kayaking. You, guys, are also so intimate with each other. And you even didn't consider the place, hahaha!" Zoey was obviously sound sarcastic with her words that makes Nickel think that she is jealous of what she thinks she saw.

"Didn't I mention that you are my only kiss? It was just the angle that makes you think that I kissed her. I, actually, pushed her away from me because she is becoming to cozy with my presence. She thinks that I can be easily persuaded using their bodies."

"So, am I wrong?" she asked. Zoey sometimes had clouded judgments over things that are why she usually got prejudice about people around her and this the first time that someone explained himself to her to correct her judgments towards him or her.

To be honest, Nickel is breaking a lot of things in her perspective. She never thought that there would be someone like him that will be too dedicated to one person. Although she still didn't know or tested whether his words are true or not, Zoey is still wanting to try.

"Give your phone." She said.

Nickel was too confused why all of a sudden Zoey is asking for his phone. He starts thinking if she will inspect his mobile phone from having other intimate conversation with other girls, or is she going to see if I have a mistress behind her back which he will never do, or if he had any scandalous phone or video of himself or other random females.

Even though there is no reason for him sweat like this, Nickel is already drenching from his lipids' souls due to his nervousness and thoughts.

"Why are you asking for my phone? And you haven't answered my question, Missy!" he asked.

"Just give me your phone and you will have your answers later."

Nevertheless, he still handed her his mobile phone without thinking twice of what is she going to do. Nickel is a very private person; perhaps it is due from his work line that he needs to make everything be sealed confidentially.

"What's your passcode?" Zoey will start invading his mobile space.

"Your birthday." Nickel blushed because these kinds of passcodes are usually from cheesy people that used their partner's date of birth to their accounts and gadgets.

Zoey, on the other hand, chuckled because she never imagines that the mighty Nicanor Fuentes of Asian-Sealed Corporation is using her date of birth to this phone. Perhaps this will be her only thing to stand among the crowd. In case someone will ask her on how she can stand over them, Zoey will probably say, "At least Nickel used my birthday as his passcode, beat that girl!"

Zoey can already access his phone; he went through his apps and look for his social media accounts. Just quick recap, Nickel indeed had Facebook but it is really outdated, it doesn't have any display photo, nor any post or re-shared articles. All in all, it is nothing.

It was created last 2009, months prior before Nickel flew to Montana to study. It was actually out of his curiosity why he created that account in the first place. He thought that because everyone had one, that he should also create one for himself.

"You're friends are limited. Are you using this one?" Zoey inquired because Nickel is the first person she knew that wasn't into Facebook and stuff. Oh! Of course aside from her self and her brother, Zick, who is so private about things.

Nickel nods to her because he cannot say anything due to his paranoia from why she decided to inspect his phone.

Zoey continued checking his account and changed on a particular setting in his account.

After that, she returned his gadget to him as if nothing happened. Nickel was also dumbfounded from what had happened and from she had done when suddenly, his phone burst from all the messages he received from his friends and family that were connected through his Facebook account.

AN:

Sorry for leaving you, guys, hanging for three days.

These last three days were so stressful but at the same time meaningful to yours truly.

I meant one bogus buyer of my BTSLYBKK concert ticket. She asked me to wait for her at the airport. She wanted it to meant me on that night because she thought that it would be safer for her because Suvarnabhumi Airport is crowded and at least there would be people to help her in case I decided to kill her, hahaha kidding aside.

Anyway, I arrived there around 6 pm. imagine the hassle I have to overcome because after work I still have to fly all the way from my area to the airport just to avoid her for waiting for my lazy ass.

To make things worst, she just let me wait for her for three hours for nothing. I waited there for nothing. She didn't see me at our agreed place and worst was that she decided not to buy my extra ticket, anymore. The hell she is! I was so mad that after I arrived home and clean myself, I slept until the next morning. That's the end of my stressful night.

Moreover, my Saturday and Sunday became the most memorable nights of my life. I got the chance to see BTS in person. The concert is all jam-packed will all the ARMY all over the world. Tiring but also enjoyable. I really loved this band, promise! The songs and performance were all perfect and awesome. Which made me forgot the stress I had because of the bogus buyer, onlywithjeon of Twitter and Instagram.

Maybe this is the reason why my fiancé used to say that I easily trust people around me, which is not a good trait in this cruel world.
