Eight: Hale.

" If I knew, I would not be coming to you for help", he said to me.

"That's true, I hate troubles. So what do we do now?" I asked him, concerned.

"A lot. I will deal with Raymond myself, just help me beg Beth, please. At least, she should hear me out first. She is just too stubborn to deal with."

"The worst part is that she does not want to talk to me, actually, she has not since that day. She avoids me lately, her phone is always switched off. I misses her a lot and it is fucking driving me nuts and crazy", he said sadly.

"Okay, I will try my very best to talk to her, at least to hear you out, to give you a second chance", I said and hoped he would be satisfied with my choice of words.

"Yes and tell her the situation too. I want you to explain things to her too. Make sure to tell her exactly what I told you, please", he said to me.

I could see it in his eyes that he was sincere, but I still have to ask him to confirm.

What if he was lying to me?

I can't beg or plead on the behalf of a lier.

I cleared my throat and asked, "Are you sure that you are telling me the truth? I mean the truth and nothing but the truth?" I asked him for confirmation.

"I swear with my fucking life, I am telling you nothing but the fucking truth. I will never cheat on my girl. I love her with my life", he said, trying to assure me.

"Yeah, I know you love my best friend, but if I should learn that you are lying right now, what should I do?" I asked him, I have to be sure, no mistake wanted.

"I will personally give you a handgun to shoot me on the head, I promise", he said to me.

" You know that I will gladly and happily do it, right?" I asked him mockingly.

"Sure", he replied to me and nodded.

"How about Raymond, hope you are not going to harm him?" I asked him.

"That is none of your fucking business. It does not fucking concerning you. It has no fucking thing to do with you", he assured me in a shocking way.

"Woah, woah. Take it easy on me. Just fucking leave already", I said to him, I was a little angry and had to calm down and think about it first before trying approaching Lizzy.

"Okay, that is fair enough", he said to me and started walking out of my room.

He stopped when he got to the door, looked over his shoulder and said,

"Thank you so much Eunice, I really mean it", and left before I could even reply, ' you are welcome,Hale.'

I were actually going to say ' fuck off'.

"Whatever", I said under my breath.

I quickly walked to the door and pushed it to close slightly.

I did not want everyone that passes by to have a glimpse of how my room looks, thank God that it is tidy.

I always keep it clean and tidy.

How should I approach Lizzy alone?

I don't even know where and how to start, now I know why it was hard for him to explain.

Ugh!

I hate myself.

She is my best friend and I gotta help her, that is what a best friend is supposed to do,right?

She would have done the same for me if I were the one in her shoes, right?

Or maybe not, I really do not know.

I have never dated before, but I met Hale first, I was not interested in dating back then because we were very young, we were kids.

I have to be quick, but I am thinking slow, very very slow.

I have to reunite them before the party completely comes to an end.

They have to dance together too.

Oh God!

Hale's Beth is very stubborn, how do I go about this?

I sighed deeply, as I was lost in thought.

I have to think hard and bring up an idea, but it is blank upstairs.

There were no ideas coming in.

This is fucking driving me crazy, I am going crazy.

I laid on my bed and was looking at the ceiling.

The weather was cool, but I was sweating profusely.

This thinking is making me sweat profusely.

I am very tired.

I have to change into something light, and am still on my heels.

I sat up and started humming to Blackpink's latest hit song that was coming from the garden downstairs, titled, ' ready for love'.

Am their biggest fan too and their fandom is called 'blink'.

Lizzy is not a fan of k pop, but the biggest fan of K dramas.

BLACKPINK is a South Korean girl band.

I unbuckled my shoes and pulled both my feet out at the same time.

I rubbed the back of my feet and felt much better.

"Am sorry Genevieve, this hair has to go", I uttered under my breath and brought down my hair and then tied it up.

I removed my outfit and wore a simple, but short gown.

I was thirsty and hungry too, just then grandma walked into my room in a rush with a glass of coca cola and some of her favorite biscuits, biscotti.

"Hey darling, I have been searching everywhere for you. Hope you are better now?" She said and handed me the glass of cola and the packet of her biscuits and pressed a kiss on my left cheek.

I nodded and said "Thanks grandma, you are the best", and took a sip from the glass.

"You are always welcome, my baby", she slightly tapped my back twice and left.

I just finished eating what grandma gave to me and was about to come out.

I had already shut my door, when Lizzy ran towards me excitedly and asked me, "Guess what?"
