CHAPTER 8 Another Woman
Emily was staring at her plate, picking on the meat with her fork. She was leaning on her right hand, pouting her lips and her mind was like in other dimensions.
“You said you’re hungry.” He sighed and looked at her and ate the last slice of his meat.
Matthew chewed his food while wiping off the dirt on his mouth. He stared at Emily and was confused why she was acting weird tonight.
“Emily Smith!” He said in a high tone of his voice and snapped his finger in front of her eyes.
She shook her head and looked around her like she was back in reality. “Oh… I haven’t touched my food.” Emily said and sparingly smiled at her boyfriend.
Matthew shook his head in disbelief about what he was seeing in Emily. “Yeah and I’m almost done here.”
He said and moved his chair to get close to Emily. “You better eat up, here.” He said while he was slicing the meat and pinch it with the fork. “Open your mouth, honey. Ah.” He pointed it in front of Emily’s mouth so she could eat properly.
Emily smiled at him. “I’m not a kid, Matt. Please.” She said while stopping him from getting another slice of meat.
Matthew shrugged his shoulders and watched her finish her food by herself. But, his phone bothered him, it was in his pocket but it kept on vibrating so he kissed Emily’s cheek and excused himself.
“I gotta take this call. You know the business.” then he stood up and went out.
Emily nodded twice and let him walked outside to answer his phone. He was just slicing the beef when a waiter gave her a piece of paper.
“Who gave this?” she asked the waiter with a furrowed brows, but when she looked at the waiter, it was gone as fast as the wind.
Emily was chewing the last spoonful of the salad when she decided to read what’s on the paper.
Enjoying the meal?
-AW
She raised her brows and put down the utensils that she was holding when she read the message on the paper. Then she crumpled the paper and threw it on the floor
Emily looked around the restaurant to see who was the person wrote it.
“Who the hell is AW?”Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
“Another admirer?”
“Uh… uh… I don’t think so…”
She heaved out a sigh as she didn’t see a suspicious person inside the restaurant. All these thoughts were in her mind as she looked around and found nothing.
“Whatever!” he whispered to herself.
Emily just made herself busy while waiting for Matthew to come back. She used her phone and saw some messages from friends and relatives. She saw her mom’s messages and immediately read them.
Emily Smith! Your father and I will be out for a while to take a vacation in Singapore. I’ll leave you in charge of the house.
-Mom
Her big eyes were now getting smaller because of the annoyance that she was feeling towards her parents.
“They know how I wanted to travel abroad but they never allow me, and this? They went to Singapore without me.” She whispered to herself. Emily was annoyed tonight so she raised her hand to the waiter and asked for the bill.
The waiter immediately handed over her the bill and gave her a credit card.
She checked her wristwatch only to find out that it was an hour had passed without Matthew. She got worried and when the waiter returned her card she immediately walked away to find him.
“Answer the phone!” She whispered.
Emily was now walking towards the parking lot to find Matthew but when she arrived at the Parking lot she saw Matthew kissing another girl.
A tear escaped from her eyes and saw Matthew responded to the kiss so she stepped closer and cleared her throat in front of them.
Matthew was shocked that he saw Emily with her arms crossed and furrowed brows.
“Talking to a client? Huh!” she said and pushed the woman away from Matthew.
“Excuse me! Who the hell are you? I’m his girlfriend.” The woman said and wrapped around his arms to Matthew.
“I… I can explain..” Matthew mumbled while he was wiping his lips.
“Hush!” she said and raised one finger in front of Matthew. “I’m his fiancee,” she told to the girl with Matthew and showed the ring on her finger.
She raised her brows in front of her and the woman felt annoyed by what she did so the woman stepped closer to her and pulled her hair.
“You bitch! You deserved this one.” The woman exclaimed and kept pulling her hair and pushed her.
Emily was controlling her tempered a while ago but since this woman started it, she fought back and pulled her hair as well.
“You don’t know how to give up!” Emily shouted and kicked her leg.
The woman was in pain and fell to the ground. Madness took over the place as Emily went over her and slapped her face.
“Woman like you don’t deserve any respect!” Emily exclaimed and was in so much rage with the woman.
The woman grabbed Emily’s top and that caused her to rip off half of her top. It became like a crop top style and that revealed Emily’s belly button.
“You don’t deserve Matthew!” the woman exclaimed.
Emily slapped her harder this time and saw the woman’s cheek was flushing because of what she did.
People at the parking lot were now getting into their place and were watching them fought against each other. Others were taking videos too.
Matthew held Emily’s arm and stopped her. He pulled her away from the woman and was frowning when he threw her on the side of the car.
“What the fuck are you doing, Emily?” he said in an annoyed tone of his voice.
“Ouch! Let go of my hand. I’m not yet done with her.” She said while madness was consuming her entire mind.
Matthew pushed her away and said. “Go home! You acted like a spoilt brat little girl,” then turned his back to help the other woman.
Emily removed the ring from her finger and threw it in front of Matthew without hesitations.
“Fuck you!” she said loudly and showed the dirty finger.
She turned her back and looked at the people who were watching them like some movie in a theater.
“Did you enjoy the show everyone?” she asked the crowd and made a gesture to introduce Matthew and the woman.
“Ladies and gentlemen I would like to introduce my ex-fiance and his nasty woman.” She said and clapped her hands. “Enjoy the show! She continued and turned her back and walked away with tears falling from her eyes.
She was walking down the parking lot without looking at her surroundings. Some cars were buzzing her but she was deaf that she was crying while walking down the road and people were looking at her.
