103 The misunderstanding
Lily
It was time for the date, I was done getting ready, I wore a red floral dress and light makeup. I was anxious, what if Xavier never show up? Why do feel like this is not going to end well?
“Lily! Your friend is here” Mum screamed from downstairs, I sighed taking one last glance at myself in the mirror I took my purse and left walking downstairs, I saw Lwo leaning on his car waiting for me, immediately he sighted me, his face brightened up
I walk close to him and stop sighing heavily
“Lily, are you okay?” He asked with concern written all over his face,
“Why do I feel so bad about this date?” I pouted sadlyThis content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
“Come on you think too much, trust me I feel good about it” He winked making me chuckle,
“Come let’s go, I feel like today’s weather is not so good,” He said and opened the car door, I was about to enter when suddenly lightning struck,
“Leo!” I nearly screamed and he started laughing
“It’s not funny” I glared at him and entered the car, he entered through the other side,
“Want some music?”
“Rush ( Breath)”
“I swear that song is making me feel so good these days” Leo smile as he turned on the music, I never knew he listens to Russ’s music. After driving for some time, we finally got to the restaurant, everywhere was looking so classy, Leo opened the car door for me and I stepped down as we both walked into the place, he pulled out a seat for me and I sat down, we ordered for food but the truth of my mind was not in the food,
I was busy looking around for any sign of Xavier but I got none,
“Are you really not going to eat?” Leo asked bringing back my attention and that’s when I noticed the different dishes on the table, I sighed as my shoulder dropped in disappointment
“What if he doesn’t come, Leo?”
“Let’s eat first and wait around to see if he shows up,” Leo said trying to calm me down, I nodded my head and managed to eat a little bit from the plate,
A few minutes later we were done eating and the waiter already cleaned up the table, Leo was trying to start a conversation but no matter how much he tries I can never concentrate, my whole mind is focused on Xavier
We’ve waited for close to an hour yet there’s no sign of Xavier, the weather is becoming bad, the wind is blowing do heavily and lightning wouldn’t stop flashing,
“The weather doesn’t look so good,” Leo said, I could already feel myself tearing up after all this time this really shows that Xavier truly loves Matilda and not me, I thought I could get him to love me but it turns out I already loose to Matilda, she was right after all, she said Xavier loves her and it turned put to be true, he was never affected by the kiss at the Cafeteria after all
Raindrops started falling and I know there’s no way Xavier will come,
“We need to leave Lily it’s starting to gain,” Leo said, I whipped my tears even though they keep falling regardless, Leo held my hand as we left the restaurant but I couldn’t stop looking back for any sign of Xavier, we entered the car and Leo drove off, it started raining heavily and my tears wouldn’t stop falling either,
“Lily, are you okay?” Leo asked but I couldn’t even answer him, I turned and face the window, wondering why I have to be so unlucky, after driving for some minutes, we finally got to my mansion. It was raining heavily already, Leo made sure to pack close to the mansion so rain won’t beat us that much
He rushed and opened the car door for me as he accompanied me into the mansion, I watched as Leo entered his car and drove back home. My thought was right after all, Xavier never showed up I sweat down in front of the mansion crying under the rain as the rain drenched me fully, I couldn’t stop my tears, I was heartbroken my heart was broken into a million pieces all my hopes were shattered
After crying under the rain for close to thirty minutes, I stood up hopelessly to walk into the house when my phone rang I look at the caller and it turned out to be Xacky
“Lily he showed up right?”
“nooooo…” I burst out in tears again
“What! But Xavier left the house for hours”
“Maybe he’s with Matilda, I fucking hate him” I cried ending the call already as I staggered into the house looking like a ghost of myself
