---Drastic Change

Jean Verodine

/"Girlfriend?/" His mother asked.

/"Nice to meet you, Mrs. Cost-/"

/"I’m not Mrs. Coster anymore darling, my name is Adeline Conor/" She smiled and I nodded.

/"I’m sorry, Ms. Conor/" I said quite embarrass.

/"Would you like to sit with us?/" I asked politely and she patted my hand that she held since earlier.

/"No, no. I’m with my friends and we’re going to visit my friend’s house. They’re waiting for me outside, I just want to see who’s my son with because he has been so secretive these days./" She said and I can’t help but smile awkwardly.

/"I was going to tell you soon./" Blake acted and I wanted to kill him this second.

/"Nice to meet you Jean, but I need to go. We need to have a dinner sometime./" She said excited.

/"Will do./"

/"That’s great. I’ll let you two have a nice lunch./" She smiled and looked at Blake smiling widely.

/"Bye mom./" Blake hugged her mom again and she waved at us for one last time and left.

/"Girlfriend?/" I asked Blake in a really angry tone.

/"I’m going to rip your head off!/" I took a deep breath and looked away to let down my emotion.

/"Be my fake fiance, just 3 months./" He said and that got me enough. I stood up from my seat and looked at him seriously.

/"I don’t have any appetite anymore, goodbye Blake, I hope you find a bride and please don’t bo-/"

/"I’ll give you anything that you want, you name it./"

/"I’m not a gold-digger Blake, find someone who is willing to be your bride./" I sighed and took my bag with me. I walked out from the restaurant but suddenly my body froze when someone stood in front of me.

/"Hello baby./" I looked at him in horror. My body froze and it was starting to numb.

/"Jean/" I turned to the back to see Blake calling me and I quickly walked back to Blake.

/"Blake/" My breath got hitch.

/"Why are you so pale?/" He asked and I turned back to that person again but I found nothing. He’s gone, how did he know that I was here?

/"What happen?/" Blake asked but I still looked around me.

/"Can you drop me home? NO, no! Don’t drop me home, let’s- let’s go to your house!/" I said suttering completely scared.

/"Come on./" Blake took my hand and pulled me to his car, I looked around to see if that man still there.

How did he got out from jail?

/"Jean/" I flinched hearing Blake’s voice, I turned to him.

/"Are you okay? What happen to you?/" He asked and I just looked at him blankly. He opened the car door for me and I got in.

/"Blake/" I called him as he got in.

/"Yeah?/"

/"Let’s get married./" I said because this is the only way that I can get protection.

/"What?/"

/"Let’s get married./" I turned to him and he raised his eyebrow.

/"Jean you jus-/"

/"Give me a house in Swiss or New Zealand or somewhere far from here after 3 months./" I said seriously.

/"Why a house? In New Zealand?/"

/"Do you agree or not?/" I asked ignoring his question.

/"I thought you don’t want a house or things like that./"

/"When do you want to get married?/" I asked and he looked at me suspicious.

/"Are you seriously want to do this because you rejected the offer like 5 minutes ago? Why the sudden change?/" Blake asked again.

/"Let’s make the contract tonight, I’ll be your puppet and all you need to do is to buy me a house somewhere far./"

/"Why?/" He asked

/"I won’t answer that, so deal?/" I asked as I put my hand in front of him.

/"Deal./" He shook my hand but still looking at me suspiciously.

The whole ride to Blake’s house was quite, I didn’t want to start a conversation about this. My head was full about that man. I can’t believe that he’s out from jail. It’s impossible.

/"Jean/"

/"Yeah?’ I turned my head to him and he pointed something. I turned to see that we’ve arrived at his house.

/"Thank you./" I said and he got out from the car. I followed him and felt my body still shaking from earlier.

/"Jean, are you okay?/" He asked and I nodded.

/"Yeah, can I stay here for awhile?/" I asked Blake.

/"Yeah sure, I’ll show you the guess room./" He said and I followed behind him. I sighed bit time and can’t help but imagining a lot of bad scenarios in my head.

/"Jean, are you sure that you’re okay?/"

/"Stop asking me that question!/" I snapped and Blake looked at me confuse.

/"Sorry but can you let me rest?/" I asked nicely.

/"Okay/" He walked out from the room and I threw my bag on the floor. My legs went weak causing me to drop my body to the ground. I felt my body was shaking so badly because of the shock earlier.

I’m in damn trouble
