CHAPTER FOURTEEN
“Hailey!” I shouted when I saw them. I don’t want to mention that woman’s name but I need to get her attention. She stood up quickly when she saw me while Dylan was just calm. “Let’s go!”
“Ouch!” I held her hand tightly when Dylan suddenly spoke.
“Relax, dude, your wife is hurting.” I stopped and faced him.
“So what, even if I strangle her in front of you you don’t care because she is my wife.” Not because he is Dylan Dy I am afraid of him.
“Phoenix, let’s go, don’t fight with him.”
“Is that how you treat your wife? We’re not doing anything wrong.”
“Wow, you’re calm huh! Are you impressing my wife?”
“Because I’m not as narrow as you. You didn’t even give her a chance to talk and you just dragged her and fought.” Damn, I know Dylan who is picky and quickly heats up his head. No words, no conversation. He just will punch you directly. He doesn’t want to be questioned or shouted at and suddenly gets angry. Hot-header in a way that doesn’t care who gets hit. But in front of this woman? He became calm.
“She’s my wife, so I’ll do what I want.”
“Phoenix, come on, let’s go home.”
“Even to embarrass her?”
“Why do you care?!”
“I don’t care. But you have to ask first before you judge her. If I am the one you judge, I don’t care because I’m not obligated to explain my side. But I hope you ask your wife first before you quarrel in front of other people.”
“You defended her?”
“Because you’re an ass. Your wife is not an easy woman, she deserved to be respected, so yes, I’m defending her. Do you have any problem?” My head only got hotter because of what Dylan said.Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
A Dylan Damon Dy, this woman has been tamed. The beast of all Dy’s siblings. The hard to deal that even his dad he fight.
“Dylan, enough please, Phoenix, let’s go home.” And she actually even mentioned Dylan’s name.
“Your husband is crazy, Hailey.”
“Do you like my wife?!” I ask and scream.
“Only a fool would not like your wife. You have to be thankful that she is not the kind of woman who flings with a different man. But if I’m with her I’ll leave you because you’re more stupid.”
“Asshole.” I punched him in the face. Everyone knows how good Dylan is at street fighting so he returned the punch to me twice. A big mistake if you look at what I did. I shouldn’t have fought a Dy but I’m bent over he says.
“Stopped!” Dane came and stand in the middle. “You idiots, you’re just staring at them!” she shouted at three.
“That’s your brother, Dane, so we don’t want to get involved because it’s Phoenix’s fault.” I looked at Jace badly but he just signed peace.
“What’s going on here?” Dane asked.
“Your brother is flirting with my wife!”
“Dylan?!”
“I won’t force you to believe me, Dane, because that was really my intention. But when I talked to her, I changed my mind.”
“See, you admit it too.”
“You’re stupid, I said changed my mind?”
“And who are you fooling, me? You even fuck your sister’s best friend.”
“She likes it, I like it, what do you care?”
“Can you stop now! What did you and Hailey really do and why is Phoenix so angry?”
“Fuck, Dane, I saw her alone, so I approached. We talked and agreed that we both didn’t want the party and laughed at the guests. Is that bad? It’s bad to laugh at people who love the party because we can’t relate. Why do they enjoy such events? You’re included by the way.”
“That’s it?” Dane asked and looked at me.
“Don’t tell me you believed in your brother?”
“I know my brother is stupid, Phoenix. I also know that this shameless person loves holes and wanted to fuck all the women. But he’s not a liar.”
“Thank you, sis.” I did not say a word. “But if you don’t want to believe, ask your wife, just won’t fight with her.”
“Hailey,” Dane called her but she didn’t look up. It is noteworthy that she also suddenly fell silent when I punched Dylan. Is she angry because I hurt this man?
“Hailey, is what Dylan is saying true, or did he do something to you or say something that makes Phoenix angry. I believe in my brother but I still want to hear right from your mouth so Phoenix knows that my brother is not doing anything bad to you but you’re just having fun. ”
“Everything he says is true, Dane. He’s kind and hasn’t been rude to me and even more, we’re not doing anything wrong.”
“See, you’re just an asshole, you idiot.”
“Enough, Dylan,” Dane scolded her brother. “Go home first, Phoenix, and talk to your wife as well.”
I held her hand but she just removed it then faced Dane and Dylan.
“I’m sorry Dylan, and you’re hurt because of me. I’m really sorry.”
“Nah, your husband is just stupid and suspicious.”
“Stop it, they know your reputation when it comes to women so you can’t blame him.”
“I know, but I’m not the issue here, Dane. It just turns out that he doesn’t trust his wife so he doesn’t care even if he embarrasses his wife. He’s afraid of being robbed or maybe because he knows he’s not a good husband.”
“Enough!”
“Fine.” He raised his hand in surrender.
“Dane, I’m sorry, I’m really sorry.”
“No, it’s ok, Hailey. Just go with Phoenix and go home.” Dane touched Hailey’s cheek.
“I’m sorry again, Dylan.”
“It’s ok.”
We were already walking and I was just shaken when I passed three people looking at me.
“Looks like I’m about to get Zeus’ car,” Jace said laughing.
“Stupid,” Blaze said but I ignored them and we continued to walk.
“You think I believe what Dylan said? Even if you defended him in front of me I don’t believe you.” She didn’t answer me and she just sighed.
I am driving right now. The condo is very close to the hotel so we can get there quickly.
“Did you really defend him? You embarrassed me with your lies. You really want attention. Why, do you think I believe Dylan didn’t talk to you about something? I know that, and he wouldn’t be like that if he can’t take anything in return from you.” But she didn’t answer so I shouted.
“What?!” But she just averted her eyes and focused outside the window until we arrived. I chattered loudly as we got out of the car until we walked but still she’s quiet. I just kept quiet when we were in the elevator because we were riding with someone. When we entered the unit he went straight to his room but I grabbed her
“We’re not done yet.” So she came to face me. “What did Dylan talk to you? Did you have an agreement? You’re flirting aren’t you? Answer me!”
“Why would I answer?” she asked so I frowned.
“What?” Then I held her hand tightly but I could not see anything on her face. It’s also new to me that she’s not crying now.
“When I speak, will you listen?”
“What did you say?”
“I will release my grievance, now, once and for all, will you let me?”
“All right, speak up and tell me what you did to that man?”
“What do you want to hear?”
“The real answer to what you’re talking about. That you’re flirting with him. Am I right?”
“When I answer yes what will you do? When I say no what will you do? You will react the same way to any answer I give. Because you will find and find mistakes in me so you have a reason to get angry with me. When I say yes you will get angry and tell me you’re right. When I say no, you will say you don’t believe because I’m a liar, manipulative, deceptress, I manipulate them all because I want attention. Now, you choose what I answer? You choose according to what you want to hear. Tell me what you want to hear so you can be calm. ”
My grip on her loosened because of what she said.
“How many times have you misjudged me, have you been sorry? Do you believe I’m not like that? Isn’t it? Even though everything you accused me and you prove you’re wrong. But still, you insist that I am like that. So why would I waste my time explaining to you if you yourself already believe something? That you have already a conclusion in your mind. I’ll just fool you, I’ll just fool myself also myself when I do that. ”
I was not silent on what she said. I just remained standing while listening to her. I feel my tongue numb and don’t want to move to talk.
“I’m just like a stupid talking to the baby but can’t understand me because he has his own World.”
Damn! why can’t I find an answer to what she said?
“Just tell me what you want to hear so I’ll answer you according to the wants that can satisfy you. Do you want to hear we’re flirting? Yes, we’re flirting so we’re laughing. We talked that we will meet so we can have sex. Are you happy? because you’ve proven that I’m such a woman and you didn’t make a mistake. That’s what you want to hear, isn’t it? You’re going to get angry because you didn’t make a mistake of suspicion. Now slap me, choke me, or kill because you have now a reason.”
It was as if I suddenly realized. Unable to move, and unable to speak.
“It’s tiring to live with you because your brain is closed when it comes to me. Because you think of me as an enemy while I have proved to you several times that I am not an enemy. I am tired of explaining my side to you and proving myself. I have always been a hard time because of you. I am the reason why you get angry and make your head hot, and I’m always the reason why you’re in trouble. I’m always ruining your day. I’m tired of understanding you, I’m tired of living with you, I don’t want you anymore. ”
Then she entered her room and quickly closed it.
“Hailey.”
I was just caught in the closed door. It was as if cold water had been poured on me and I was suddenly shrinking to myself. Just now she answered me and released all her thought. And the sad thing, aside from that she had no emotions was—-fuck she’s right to everything she said.
Damn, what have I done?
