CHAPTER 39: LIVING IN TRUTH
ALEXA’S POV
I immediately went straight to where she might be. I did not go wrong when I saw her while being proud of herself.
” I could not believe that I lose on a nerd like her. I am sure, there have been fraud about it. Maybe they let her win to make the name of the school charismatic in the eyes of investors. It is a perk of being a daughter of the owner of the school,” I heard her protest with her minions.
” Oh, what is that smell? Smells like bitterness,” I remarked loudly enough to get their attention.
” Look who is here? The cheater. You are too desperate, dear,” Tiffany stated when she approached me. We are currently facing each other.
” Am I really the one you are talking about? Because on what I see, you are the desperate one between us. Why not accept your lose, Tiffany? Oh, you cannot because what a shame really for a campus queen wanna be to lose in a nerd,” I mockingly told her. I grinned when I saw her become red. I even see the crowd silently agreeing with what I said.
” Do not look superior, dear. You are just a nobody,” Tiffany angrily said.
” This nobody you were pertaining is the new queen of BEU. Just accept the truth, loser,” I bravely remarked. If I had let her bully me before, I would not let it happen again.
” Yeah, the new queen wanna be that only win because she was the daughter of the owner of this school,” Tiffany mockingly stated.
” Yes, I am the only daughter of the owner of this school. But the reason you lose had no connection about my identity,” I said while trying to calm myself down.
” See, everyone. You hear what she said. She is the daughter of the owner of this school. How could we be sure that there is no fraud on her victory,” Tiffany confidently said to the people surrounding us. Everyone had their own share of opinions, but I only focused on Tiffany.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
” You know, all people who lose always said that there is a fraud behind. Hmm, I think it will not have a big impact in your identity if you knew how to accept defeat,” I lectured her.
” I will never go down to your level. You are just a nobody, a loser,” Tiffany mockingly stated.
” Then, I guess I am wasting my time her. You know what, you can destroy my name to other people, but you will never destroy me. Do not let your bitter heart hinder you to make a better decision.” I advised before turning my back to her. However, she immediately grabbed me to face her again.
” Who are you to lectured me? You are just a nobody,” Tiffany shouted and strongly pushed me.
However, before I fell to the floor, the person behind me hurriedly caught me. He holds me on my waist. I looked to whoever caught me, even if I knew who he was, without seeing him yet. It is only one person who could make me feel something different every time he was around.
” Did I told you before that do not lay any finger on my girlfriend?” Ken firmly stated. He had this dark aura and the only emotion you will see in his eyes was anger.
” You know, it is also because of you. The moment you arrived here, that nerd became brave. Do you love to save weak person?” Tiffany mockingly said to Ken. Ken helped me to properly stand.
” It is such an honor that because of me she can unleash her confidence. She did not deserve to be treated badly by someone weaker like you who pretended to be strong,” Ken replied.
” How dare you?! You know, I really like you before, but when you had relationship with that nerd, I lose my respect to you,” Tiffany disrespectfully said to Ken. Argh, this girl had been too much.
” Is that so? For your information, I looked to you lowly ever since I first laid my eyes to you. You are too desperate for attention, power, and love,” Ken grinned, making Tiffany’s face red.
” Ken, let’s go. We are wasting our time on that girl,” I remarked and held his hand. I started grabbing him away from Tiffany. However, we only made a few steps when we stopped because of what Tiffany remarked.
” I do not exactly know why you are wasting your time to that girl. Why not break up with her? Ah, I remember, there will be no break up because your relationship is fake. More fake than the identity of that girl. She acted like an angel, but she was not,” Tiffany shouted.
” You know, rather than spreading some fake news or intervene to other relationship that obviously you are not belong, why not ask some expert to fix your attitude. Maybe miracle happen and you will be nice,” Ken stated without looking at Tiffany.
I saw how red Tiffany’s face was after what Ken said. She seemed like a bomb that was ready to explode. However, I did not see it coming since Ken started pulling me towards the cafeteria’s exit. Ken continued dragging me until we reached the rooftop of the school. I could not help but smile after remembering what had happened here before.
” Why are you smiling?” Ken asked in wonder.
” Nothing, it seemed like this happened before,” I chuckled but immediately turned to frown when I saw Ken’s serious face.
” You still remember that,” Ken seriously said.
” Yeah, this is where you blackmailed me to be your fake girlfriend. But why are you too serious?” I nervously asked him.
” Now that the school knew that you are the daughter of the owner of this school, it is time for you to live with the truth.” Ken seriously stated.
” What do you mean?” I confusedly asked him.
” That was the only reason why you agree to be my fake girlfriend before, right. Now, your secret is already out. There is no reason for us to continue pretending,” He answered. His words were like a knife that stabbed my heart. However, the following words he said made my world stop entirely.
” Let’s end this fake relationship. Let’s break up,” Ken coldly stated.
” W-what?” I was too surprised.
” I do not want this anymore, Alexa. Let us finish this fake relationship,” Ken replied, not looking at me.
I felt that at any moment, my tears will fell down, but I tried to control them by calming myself. I thought he loved me. Maybe he gets tired of saving me and might be afraid that I might pull him down. I managed to bitterly smile at him.
” If that is what you want, let us end this, fake boyfriend,” I bravely told him.
Ken did not bother to say a word to me. He simply turned back at me. When he started walking away from me, my tears began falling because I could no longer hold them. The moment the rooftop’s door closed was the sign that our fake relationship had ended. I sat down on the floor because I felt no strength in my knees. I looked at the sky and bitterly smiled. This is where our fake relationship started. I did not expect this would be the place of our ending.
