“What? But you told me you only love me earlier!” The woman’s unfamiliar voice rang out, roaring at the man.
I took a second clearer look at her face. Wait a minute. That’s not Monica… And this man…
My neck creaked as I turned my head mechanically and saw the bewildered man. It was not Christopher, but someone whose figure and size looked so similar from behind; thus, I was mistaken. Along with my anger, my courage vanished.
“I have no one else but you!” Then, the man glared at me and yelled, “You crazy b*tch! Where the hell did you even come from? I don’t know you at all. Open your eyes and see clearly. You’d better watch what you say or do, or I will call the cops and have you sent to an asylum.”
“Sh*t, I’m sorry. I’m so sorry, guys. I’ve got the wrong person.” I apologized repeatedly, admitting it was my mistake. It was so embarrassing that I wanted to dig a hole to bury myself. Thus, I left the grove glumly soon after that and stood alone in the huge park, totally at a loss of what to do.
Just where is Christopher? Did he bring Monica to another park to make out?
Just then, my eyes fell on the large screen with colorful flashing lights in the distance, and I remembered the words Christopher said during the reporter’s interview.
Although Christopher would not actively go and seduce a woman, it would be a different story if Monica went out of her way to seduce him. After all, only a few men could resist if such a beautiful woman were to offer her kisses.
I called Christopher again, but his phone was still turned off. Not knowing what to do, I sat on the ground and fiddled with a tuft of grass mindlessly. “Christopher, where are you? I’m sorry. Don’t be angry, okay? I really didn’t forget your birthday on purpose. Didn’t I say that communication is key? You didn’t tell me what this party was for, so it wasn’t a pleasant surprise as you claimed. Well, it was a surprise but certainly not pleasant at all.”
“Do you realize your mistake now?”
“Yeah, I realize that I was wrong. As long as you forgive me, I will do anything you wish.” I nodded.
“Will you ignore my calls again? Will you break your promises to me?” His low voice was heard, and, for some reason, he sounded like he was trying to suppress his laughter.
