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.

I want you baby

"As this is your last meal here, it will be my parting treat to you and Happy. Order anything you like, the tab is on me."

Zoey felt thrilled after he that the 'tab is on me', she ordered few of her favorite dishes and pet food for Happy. "Have you eaten yet?" She asked Greg who was sitting beside her.

"No, I haven't. I was about to leave when I opened the door for you. From afar, your forehead shined too bright as if it was calling me to serve by opening the door." Greg loved to tease Zoey because she easily angered by jokes or jests.

He added, "After you leave, I will surely gonna miss you and your comical expressions." Zoey has this habit of pouting and scrunching her nose if she was teased or something.

Sometimes, Greg will come up a new jest to irritate her because she looked so cute when she makes her habits and Greg liked to see it very often that is why he likes to tease her whenever he sees her.

"Excuse me; my forehead isn't that wide and shiny." She pouts and puts her hands on her waist. "Eat with me, anyway you'll be the paying it."

The two indulged themselves to the dishes served. Even Happy was happily savoring the flavor of her food.

Greg and Zoey engaged in a deep conversation about life, career, etc. Only to found out that it was almost time for the restaurant to close. A waiter approached Greg to inform them that they'll be settling everything down before closing the diner.

"So I won't be seeing you tomorrow? Make sure to not bring Godzilla there. Do not bite people, okay? I know you love biting everyone." Greg bade his farewell to Zoey and hugged her for the last time. His considered little sister will be departing tomorrow afternoon.

Zoey went back to her unit and cleaned herself up. After that, she collapsed over the bed with Happy besides her.

Zoey was on a deep sleep when her phone rang, wherein she missed the call.

....

Michael didn't stop sending Zoey flowers and gifts; he was determined to move Zoey by his so-called sincerity by giving her giving every other day, but all of his packages were returned to him by the carrier. No one from the Alcantara Residence wanted to receive it from them, they said that there is no Zoey living there, and they don't know any Zoey related to the Alcantara's.

Michael was frustrated when she arrived home and welcomed by the faded flowers and mountain liked boxes in front of his door. The condo manager phoned him this afternoon that the security office was already full due to his packages, he advised him that they'll be leaving his items in front of his condo unit.

Orb was very busy processing all the documents for Asian-Sealed Corporation, he was assigned to help the Legal Department of Orb to execute the collaboration as soon as possible. And because of that, he's been staying to his office restroom for the week.

Probably it was Manang who gave the order to not receive his packages. He knew that Manang sow hatred to him.

Michael opened his door and pushed the cart full of boxes inside his room, he even called the housekeeper to get the faded flowers and throw it out.

Michael removed his coat and tosses it to the couch. He slumped his body to the couch beside his coat and massaged his temple. He was thinking why he hasn't heard anything about Zoey for the past week, she never replied to his messages, even Michelle wasn't getting in touch of her. He was wondering if she already left and returned to Montana.

After contemplating the reasons why and where is Zoey, the door clicked and open. A girl emerged through the door and went straight to Michael whose eyes are closed and hands are massaging his temple. Due to fatigue, Michael didn't hear the door opened as he was drowned from thinking about Zoey.

The girl was wearing a red body fit dress, she emits an alluring aura because her dress enhances all her body assets such as her bosom, bum and her twenty-five inches waistline. Men will surely be allured by her whenever they see her. She was like a demon disguising as a goddess to tempt the humans to the darkness.

She slowly walked towards Michael then entwined her arms to Michael's neck. Michael, on the other hand, got surprised as he didn't expect her to be here.

"What are doing here?" He asked.

"What's the matter? Wasn't I allowed to visit my man when I miss him?" America looked at his side profile and kissed his cheek before he even speaks.

"I haven't seen you for a week and I distance myself for a while because I know you're busy but I can't take it anymore. I want you baby!"

America and Michael are been together since Zoey and Michael broke up. Although he pretended that he avoided keeping Zoey. There are no secrets that time does not reveal. When Zoey found out about their continuing romance she then broke up with him pronto.

Michael and America revealed their relationship after a week of that incident.

Zoey was pitied by everyone back then; she was betrayed by her so-called best friend and boyfriend.

America continues kissing and nibbling Michael's neck until she saw his reaction.
