My Mate Had A Girlfriend novel Chapter 4

"Thanks Mom, and tell Dad the same thing too," I said and wanted to walk up to my room but my mom yanked me back.

"Why are you so moody?"

"Mom I'm having a bad stomach ache now. I need to rest," I lied.

"Oh dear. I hope you'll be fine by the party tonight. Where is Eddie? Shouldn't he be driving you home since you're sick? Oh that boy I'm gonna..."

"Mom, can I go up now?" I asked, cutting my mom's ranting.

"Oh of course sweetheart. Just call me if you need anything," Mom told me and I nodded, making my way up to my room and dropped myself on the bed - face down. I sniffed my favourite pillow and suddenly, I just started tearing.

I wanted Calvin so badly. I wanted to hug and kiss him but those privileges belonged to Valerie.

No wonder they said not to be too happy nor excited over some things. I was too excited and impatient to find my mate and to get to know him. Now that I have found him, it was nothing pleasant at all. I'd have to live, watching him live with someone else.

I wasn't going to tell Valerie. Even though I have all the right to, I wouldn't. Like Calvin, I probably wouldn't want to hurt Valerie. She had lost everything and now she had the only one to depend on and I was sure that she'd be devastated to have lost him too.

I just know I had to sacrifice.

"Oh darla your black circles under eyes need a major covering up," Celina told me as she applied another tons of concealer on my under-eye. She was in charge of getting me ready for the party that will start in... Less than 20 minutes. It wasn't really like a party; more of an evening get-together because there wasn't going to be alcohols. Not that I was a big fan of alcohol.

Will Valerie and Calvin show up like she had said?

"Who will be there later?" I asked Celina while she was curling my dark brown hair with the curling wand.

"Of course the whole pack, silly."
