Falling In Love With A Broken Hearted Man

( 2 months later )

"We should throw a party after this girl. Your dream became true!"

I felt so relieved and happy as I finally achieved what I really wanted on my graduation. It will be served as my award for studying hard for the past years.

I can't believed that It will took me to the right place where I strived for good. I dreamed of having a legacy on this school.

And without my friends and teachers, I wouldn't be able to reached what I am today.

"Here's our Magna Cum Laude, representing.. Raine Scott!"

All of our friends shouts in happiness as we eat our lunches here inside the restaurant.. I never thought that they would definitely go here just to congratulate me. It's not the graduation yet but, I feel like I was already rewarded with these people.

"I never thought you're that smart, Raine. I thought you like chillin' always..?" Wyatt laughed. I saw how Hannah pinched his waist to stop him.

"Well.. I'm also surprised that I had this side of me. I love what I'm doing.."

"Was it hard?" Bailey asked.

"Uh.. Nothing was easy at first. You know, if you set your mind on something and you're determined to do it, then you'll definitely achieved what you really want.."

Just like me, there's so many times that I just wanted to throw everything away.. Like things aren't that easy for me, that I feel like everything's not certain for me.

I also doubted myself that I may not be able to survived it. I was a mess when I experienced the most critical stage of my life. I cried and got tired. I almost give up because it keeps getting harder. That I just wanted to stop and just work.

But there's something in me that's telling me if I would stop, it will be harder for me to survive in this hardship. That I might work forever without doing something all my life..

"I'm happy for you.." Jennie said, I know that she mean it.

"We're happy for you, Raine and to all of you.. Finally," Jessy and Gia gave me a piece of beef meat from their plates.

"I'm sorry, there's a traffic on the fucking way. Am I late?" Cameron came running out of breath. His sweat was also flowing down his temples.

I took the towel inside my bag that I supposed to use earlier but I didn't got to use it. He needs it more than me.

"Here," I gave them the towel but he just stared at it.

"I'm okay Raine--"

"Fine, come here," I stood up and pulled the hem of his white shirt. He's so tall that I still had to tip toed just to wipe his fucking sweat.

"What the fuck men!" I heard Daniel scowled and everyone went silent. "He's not a baby anymore, Raine!"

"Look at you sweating. You didn't have to run.." I pursed my lips. "Here.."

"Thanks," he took the towel from me and sat on the vacant chair beside Jacob. "

I didn't know that you had a yumm--ah, good-looking friend, Raine.." Marco's eyes locked on Cameron who's smiling awkwardly.

"Nice to meet you man. I'm Harry Franklin.." Harry offered his hand to Cameron.

"Cameron Ansel Vaughn,"

"You're looked like a model, man!" He even made some fist bump with Cameron.

"He's a model actually.." Jessy said.

"Oh," Harry and Marco seemed surprised.

"So what's your plan after graduation?" Daniel immediately ask while looking at Jacob who's just silent on the corner.

"Actually.. I don't have any plans yet, so.." I think, that will be my greatest problem in the future.

"You want to apply on our company? I can help you.."

"Oh. Thank you.. But I'm still thinking right now.."

"Sure you are.." He smiles and glanced at Sam a bit.

My bestfriend was always silent whenever Daniel's around. I don't know what's gotten into this bitch that she's so in love with him. All I know right now was, Daniel's busy with his flings.

"Stop dreaming will you?" I frowned. "Daniel's not into serious relationship, Sam.."

"I know.. But please just let me like him even in this secret way. Hmm?"

I rolled my eyes. "Whatever."

We wrapped up after that, because we still had to go back on our practice. I'm the magna cum laude and I was needed there..

"So, see you on graduation?" Zia seemed happy with Bailey and Hannah beside her.

"You're coming?"

"Wait, don't you want us to come?" Bailey acted hurt.

"That's not what I mean guys.." I laughed.

"I know.." They also laughed.

The boys also bid their goodbyes to me. And the three girls, Zia, Bailey, and Hannah has their own cars so they separate ways as soon as we get outside.

"Congratulations for all of you again.." They waved their hands before leaving.

"Have you inform your mom about this, Raine?" Sam asked.

"Not yet, but I'm planning to say it to her tonight.."

"Good. Do well on your practice, we're going now.."

"Hmm." I nodded.

"Good luck guys!" Jessy and Gia said while looking at Jennie, Jacob and Marco.

"Take care!" Jennie said.

"See you later, Raine!"

I just nodded before watching them walking away in this small space. Good thing, it's still a walking distance from our school and we didn't have to commute just go there..

"Raine.." Jacob called.

I glanced at him and smiled. He's been so silent since morning and I'm not used to him being like this.

"Yes?"

"I'm proud of you.."

Our friends immediately teased us and I can't help but to feel shy. Oh god. They're teasing is too much but I can't even get mad at them.

"T-thank you.." I felt like I'm blushing. Am I?

"You face turns red, oh my. She's blushing Marco! She's blushing!" Jennie shouted, jumping like a fan.

"Stop jumping! You're so clumsy so better--"

"You better shut up, Harry." Jennie cuts him and glare.

I chuckled after witnessing their little fight. They look really good together. I bet Jennie was just too hard on Harry that he can't even get into her style. My friend is a bit tough, you know..

"Congratulations everyone.." I emotionally said and gave them a warm hug.

"I'm happy that I survived this deadly challenge to me," Marco sighed, getting emotional.

"Me too.." Jennie pouted.

We headed to our school after that and immediately walked towards the gymnasium where the graduation practice will be happen.

"Can't I also stood up next to you? I didn't want to sit on the front.." Jacob was nagging me about it but I don't even know if it's allowed.

"Why can't you just sit there, huh? Your ass won't melt down if you don't sit beside me!"

"But my ass prefers to sit beside you," he smirked.

"Ass your face!" I rolled my eyes, getting myself ready for my march.

"Goddamn it!" I heard his hissed before he walked away towards his line.

I just laughed before standing on the line of people who will be awarded.

After the practice, I decided to go to the library first to return the book that I borrowed. It was such great help for me to get some high grades and I'm always thankful for that.

What should I do after this? Should I just go home and rest or wander around outside?

"You seemed happy that everything comes your way, huh?"

A familiar voice of a woman stops me from walking after returning the book on the library. What does she wants again? And why is she here?

I was standing ahead of her so I couldn't see her face, but I'm certain that it's her. The woman I despised a lot and the woman who stands as a poison on my life.

I turn around and face her. What is this again? A cliché scene where she would ask me if I'm doing well and then she'll slap me for getting into her nerves?

Damn if she want that, then let me slap her face first.

"Dana.." I feel bitter mouthing her name. She kinda had the nerve to pissed me like this.

Her reaction didn't changed. It's still the same as she look at me before. But since I don't care, I wouldn't mind if she also roll her eyes. I just hope that it won't come back again.

"You just can't stop taking away everything that I have, huh? Why? Are you that satisfied knowing that I was left nothing but--"

"Dana! What are you saying?!" I don't know what she's saying, god! Why would she say something that I can't even understand!

She laughed sarcastically and took a step forward towards my direction. Her natural arched brows and evil grin were now showing like she's not scared destroying me again.

But sorry, I won't let her this time. Over my dead sexy body.

"Playing dumb again, sure you are! You like dirty games.. I won't wonder why he's crazy over you, just by looking. You have similarities.." She crossed her arms and smirked. "You're both stupid.."

"DANA!"

Pierre run towards us and pulled Dana's arm rashly. "What do you think you're doing, huh!"

"Let me go, Pierre!" She gritted her teeth. "That woman took everything from me!"

"Fuck it, Dana! Raine didn't do anything wrong! You're the one who wronged her but still you're shameless!"

I was startled when Pierre shouted at her. He looked so furious like he's going to explode now. His fist formed into a ball while clenching his jaw.

"Pierre! I'm your fucking cousin! You should get on my side and not with that bitch!"

"Don't call her that! You don't fucking want me being angry at you, Dana. So while I'm still nice, better leave this fucking place before I could kick you out myself,"

"The chairman should've adopted me Pierre.. But because of that bitch.." She glared at me.

"Don't blame her why you're experiencing hardship right now. Not because you're suffering, that means you had to drag her with you too.."

"She supposed to!"

What are they talking about? Why..

How am I involved here?!

"You!" She points at me.

"Dana, no." Pierre pleaded.

"Hear everything that I'll say."

"Let's go!"

Pierre holds her arm but she's trying to pull it. From what I am seeing right now.. I can't even feel that everything's right. It seems like I was on a puzzle.. It doesn't feel right..

"Go on, take her. Come on, Raine," Jacob appeared behind me.

I was so confused to what's Dana talking here. She came and tell me those weird things and Pierre seems to know about it..

Why?

Why would they come here and messed up with my life again? Why?

To be continued..
