Thinking back to when Jimmy falsely accused me, I saw my chance for a little payback. "Let go of my hand, or I'll start shouting for help!"
Jimmy laughed. "Go ahead, make my day."
He wasn't scared at all.
Some people are just totally shameless. I tried to pull my hand away, not wanting to waste my time arguing with him.
But he didn't let go. Instead, he flashed me a grin, "Felicia, long time no see. You seem to be getting more and more… beautiful."
"Get lost!" I tried to pull my hand back again.
Still, he wouldn't let go. Instead, he followed my movement, getting closer. "Seems like your temper's grown too."
Some people have no shame, and Jimmy was proving to be one of them.
"Jimmy, what are you doing? It's getting late, and we've got places to be," someone called out to him from a distance.
He had rushed over here for something, clearly.
But now, Jimmy seemed in no hurry, even ignoring the call. He kept a firm grip on my hand. "Felicia, I heard you're single now. Can I chase you?"
That felt like a punch to the gut.
Me, single? Whose fault was that? His sister's!
His sister snagged my fiancé, and now he wanted to chase me? Bold move.
But if they're going to play me like that, I needed to hit back. So, I responded with a cold smile, "Sure, why not ask your sister if she's cool with it. If she gives the green light, go ahead."
"Did you just say yes?" Jimmy's eyes lit up like a Christmas tree.
Panic surged through me. This kid couldn't be serious, right?
I was already seeing someone else, Ernest, and the last thing I wanted was to get tangled up with another guy. Facing Jimmy's hopeful gaze, I lifted my foot and stepped on his toes.
Accompanied by a yelp of pain, he finally let go, hopping around in agony.
Still unsatisfied, I shot him another glare before walking away.
