The words settled between the three of them like shards.
The harsh breathings of Bexley followed the declaration.
She glared at Annika, but Annika just stood there neutrally, staring back like Bexley just spewed shenanigans.
“And who the fûck gave you permission to seduce me?” Saint’s voice came from behind.
Bexley’s palms turned sweaty immediately, and she turned as slowly as she couldn’t even imagine.
She met Saint’s prickly eyes on herself, glaring hard.
“Who the fûck said you could come here, get in-between us, and say whatever the fuck you want?” He demanded sternly again.
“I know I fucked up,” Bexley started. “But I said I was sorry.”
“And your apology is supposed to make me feel better and open my arms wide for you?” Saint scoffed. “You’ll indeed never change, Bexley. You expect everyone to work according to your wishes, and I’m sorry darling, I don’t do that. The only person I ever listen to is Toby cos he’s not just a brother, he’s like my young dad. But you? You’re not even on the list of people I respect.”
“The only sin I sinned was ignoring your call for help, and it’s because I was frustrated, so I stupidly poured my frustrations on you! People get frustrated all the time and I’m human too! I have a mind too!”
“You’re not the only human here, I’m human too!” Saint shouted, pissed. “If Annika hadn’t saved me on the road that day, I’d have died! When they took me to the hospital, you know what the doctor said to Anita? IF YOU HAD BROUGHT HIM A MINUTE LATE, HE’D HAVE DIED! I’d have died!”
“I’m sorryyy!!!” Bexley screamed.
“And I’ll ask you this question now,” Saint took a deep breath. “Do you love me? Or is it just guilt?”
Bexley opened her mouth to talk, but nothing came forth.
“Last chance, Bexley. Do you?” Saint repeated slowly.
Bexley gulped.
“Look at what I’m saying!” Saint snarled. “You have no fleck of feelings for me, but you’re talking about seducing me? For what? So you can feel satisfied that you gained another pokemon card?”
“It’s not like that!” Bexley cried.
“Work on yourself, Bexley.” He sighed. “Work on how to think about others and not yourself only. Work on how to stop being egoistic and self-centered, then maybe… just maybe… you’ll find a guy who’ll love you wholeheartedly by then.”
He looked aside where Annika stood and took her by the wrist.
“Let’s go, fellow weirdo.” He gave her a smile which she immediately returned before following him.
He drove off with her, leaving Bexley all alone right there.
Bexley went down, squatting in the middle of the road. She dipped her face into her knees, crying quietly.
