Her First Pain

"Hey what are you staring at?" Peggy frowned.

Nina just stood there frozen, staring intently. The girls turned their eyes from where she was looking and were also surprised.

Andrew and the woman didn't notice them at first but when she saw Nina, he was surprised. He didn't say a word and was just looking at her. He didn't even bother to move away from the woman beside him.

"Andrew, I like that dress. Buy it for me please." The woman pleaded, pointing at the red dress on the poster of the store.

When she noticed that Andrew was staring at someone and wasn't listening to her, she looked at the girl who was wearing the dress she liked.

She noticed the other girls and knew who they were. She looked at Andrew again and thought of something naughty. She smirked and suddenly kissed Andrew on the cheek.

Andrew's eyes widened. He looked at the woman beside him and turned to Nina. He was checking her reaction and saw her clenched her jaw.

"Nina." He called.

Nina felt like something pierced her heart. It was a different kind of pain when she saw Ella kissing Andrew. She could feel her chest tightened and no words came out from her mouth.

Then she felt a hand touch hers. When she looked at who it was, she saw Sophie, smiling at her gently. She turned to Alora, Peggy and Emily. They were also smiling, as if telling her they got her back. So she took a deep breath and slowly walked towards the two.

"Andrew, you're here. You didn't come home last night, I was surprised to see you here." She said while looking directly into his eyes.

She was hiding her pain. She couldn't show Andrew that she was hurting inside. The first time she saw him with a woman, she knew she was hurt because of her pride. But now, she couldn't explain why.

"Ah, I-I stayed at-" He couldn't continue his words and turned to the woman beside him again.

His gestures were giving Nina's heart more pain. She bit her lips to stop her tears from falling and looked at the woman who was holding on to Andrew's arms.

"Hi! I'm Nina. Andrew's fiance." She introduced herself first.

The woman smiled and didn't show that she was bothered by what she said.

"I'm Seira. Andrew slept in my house last night. He came drunk and couldn't drive anymore so I told him to stay. I didn't know he's getting married." The woman said without any hesitation.

"I see. So he also decided to take you here after sleeping in your house." She said while looking coldly at the woman.

"Yes. We haven't seen each other for six months. I missed him so if you don't mind, I'll borrow your fiance for a day." Seira continued.

Nina couldn't answer for a moment. She was trying to compose herself so Andrew and Seira won't recognize that she's hurting. She was about to answer when someone called their attention.

"Andrew?" It was a woman's voice.

They looked at the woman who called him. She was wearing a black body hugging short dress, her long scarlet hair was tied up and was swaying while she walked towards them. Her face looked like she was a few years older than them, but she was pretty even though she only wore a little make up. A definition of a sophisticated woman, Nina thought to herself.

The woman kissed Andrew on the cheek as well when she got closer and wrapped her hand to his other arm. Nina frowned.

What the hell is going on? Is this a reunion of his flings? Nina thought inwardly.

She looked at Andrew again and waited for his explanation. But to her disappointment, he was just staring at her, saying nothing.

"And you are?" Seira was the one who asked.

The woman smiled and looked at Seira from head to toe before answering.

"I'm Bettina. We met last week in a bar and had a quick, you know." The woman said then blinked at Seira.

Nina wanted to barf after hearing Bettina's words. She knew what she meant by those words and she already expected that this scene could happen one day. But she didn't expect it to be so soon. Her heart was in more pain while looking at the two women with hands wrapped into her fiance's arms.

She saw Bettina was slowly brushing her fingers to Andrew's arms. Nina felt uncomfortable.

"So Andrew, I gave you my card but you never called me. I can see that you were busy with some kids." Bettina was trying to mock Seira but she also gazed at Nina.

"Nina!" It was Alora's voice. But it was somehow different and she knew it was one of her other selves, Camila.

For those who didn't know. Alora has dissociative identity disorder and currently has four personalities living inside her. She switched personalities from time to time, especially if she couldn't control her anger.

Nina knew Alora was mad since she switched to Camila. She was worried that Camila would do something violent so she snapped and decided to join Andrew's game.

"Kids? Maybe he didn't contact you because he's tired of fucking some aunty." Nina exclaimed while looking at Bettina from head to toe.

She saw Bettina's expression change from mockery to madness. She glared at her and smirked.

"Who the hell are you?" She asked.

Nina was petite while Seira and Bettina were tall like Emily. She may look like a child to those women but she would never let anyone look down on her, especially Andrew's exes.

She mustered the courage, walked closer to Andrew, grabbed his collar and pulled him closer to her face.

"Kiss me." She ordered.

He suddenly freed himself from the two women's hands then wrapped his arms around Nina's waist.

"I thought you're mad at me." He whispered.

She felt his warm breath through her face while her heart started pounding loudly. She admits she already missed him because he didn't come home last night.

"I am mad so you have some explaining to do later. Now, show them who I am to you." She demanded.

He smiled at her and pulled her closer.

"As you wish." He said before pressing his lips to hers.
