Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 17

SEMI FINAL

David couldn’t believe what she had just said. He felt himself getting really furious but tried controlling himself. He held her more tighter trying to prevent himself from doing anything he might regret later.

“What? ” he managed to ask calmly.

“I am sorry but I have tried all I can to love you. I just couldn’t find it in my heart to”

“Is it because of that boy? That childhood friend of yours who you were impatiently waiting for. You have never waited for me so badly before”

‘Stop this David. It has nothing to do with him. I don’t just love you”

But why are you just telling me now? Why didn’t you tell me from the very first day I approached you”

“I liked you so much then. I was trying to be sure of my feelings for you but now I have realized I don’t love you at all”

“This can’t be true! ” He screamed out not able to control his anger anymore. He pushed her roughly causing her to fall on her arm causing a bruise.

“I am serious. I don’t love you! ”

“Just keep quiet now! All this while we were In London, you had been joking with my feelings ”

“No I have not. I thought I could learn to love you since I liked you so much” Realizing he wasn’t getting her point, she walked toward him and knelt slowly at his feet with tears rolling down her cheeks. “Please forgive me David. I am sorry”. David shook his head vigorously as if telling her no, that would be impossible. He rudely kicked her off with his leg and walked out without bothering to look back. “Please wait David! We have to talk properly.”. He refused to stop. He walked out the exit door and down the flight of stairs. Christian twisted his nose in anger feeling upset about what was going on. The stupid dude had left his future bride in the middle of their party just like that. He never expected that at all especially when it came to his close friend. He brought himself together and began going after the moron. Clara saw this and shouted out to him to wait but he didn’t.

“Christian he is hot tempered. Don’t do anything foolish now” She pleaded.

“No! He didn’t do right by pushing you down like that. You are his future wife. He can’t just abandon you like this due to a small issue”

“I understand but wait ” He didn’t listen. He increased his pace and was able to catch up with David right in time before he could get into his car.

“How dare you fool make her cry that way? Who do you even think you are?

“Who are you? get off my way”

“I thought you loved her. Why did you just dump her that way? ”

“It is certainly none of your business. This is between I and my fiancee. I very well know it is due to you she had broken up with me. I have known from the very beginning she wasn’t happy with the relationship and also this marriage. I was just waiting for her to spill the beans. Why don’t you just take her? I am no more interested in a pretender anymore. Have her if you want”

“How can you say that so comfortably? ”

“She doesn’t love me as that’s the bitter truth. Why can’t you see that? ”

“You can’t just abandon her like this”

“She left me. I didn’t leave her. Will you please leave me alone now and let me go? She has really hurt my feelings today ” After this words, David got into his car and drove off rudely with full speed. Christian rubbed his hair and turned to Clara who had been staring this whole time. Her tears had stopped.

“Why did you act like that? What is wrong with you?” he asked in annoyance. “You Are insane”

“Yes I am insane but this is because of you. I didn’t love him. I loved you. How can I marry someone else when you are right there Christian. You were sitting down there so lonely while I Danced with another man. It’s pathetic you know”

“I don’t want to be with you. I don’t love you. You deserve a rich guy who can take care of you”

“You are wealthy to me. I need nothing more. I just want you”

“I am not interested ”
