musical night

They say that music soothes the beast. Yet. Why is it that she feels so restless?? It's not that the music playing is of low quality. It's by Malaysia Philharmonic Orchestra, for God's sake!! Still, something is playing on her mind, and it sure as hell is not the music. What then??

Her mind wanders off to that incident.

"You bitch!! I trusted you! And this is how you treat me?? How dare you come in here, strutting like you belong!! Get the fuck out of my sight!! I never want to see you again!!" His voice cracked.

Oh how she wanted to wrap her arms around him and tell him that it was all a misunderstanding!! The sight of him so disheveled ripped her heart out. His words cut through her like a dagger stabbing her heart. Yet, she did not go to him. Somehow, she knew. He would never believe anything she said anymore. Never again.

She had went to Jim's place last week when he was on a business trip. She pleaded him to let her go. She had found someone better then him who loves her and treasures her, unlike him. She wanted to start over a new leaf. She was done being number 2 in his life. Jim had stared in her eyes, those expressive green eyes of hers.

"I will never let you go. I want us to begin over again. I want you back in my life. I will never let you go without a fight."

"That's what you always say. But everytime she calls, you go running like a dog on heat. I'm sick of all that. Can't you see that I have finally found someone who loves me for who I am?? Or are you so full of yourself to even see that??"

"I'm blind because your beauty radiates such brightness. Without you in my life, it's not worth going on."

"You are so selfish. I really don't give a damn. You can always go and find another girl who is green enough to fall for your empty words."
And with that she walked out and slammed the door.

He stared at her and winced at the sound of the door slamming. He could distinctively hear the beep of the opening of the door of the lift. There was a determined look in his eyes.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Her heart ached. She quietly left him there, sitting on the sofa, with his head in his hands. Each step that she took, broke her heart little by little. Jim must have spread rumors saying that she was still sleeping with him. And that she was a cheat. The fact that she neglected to mention that meeting with Jim didn't help her cause.

And so. Here she is. Drowning her sorrows....... in music. She fidgeted in her seat. A few people present looked at her. From the very beginning, it was as if she had sat on hot coals. She decided to leave.

The icy cold wind touched her skin. Wherever she goes, who ever she meets, what ever she does, he would always be there, cutting off her every attempt to start a new life. What was the point anyway, of trying?? He would never stop until he got her back. And she would be reduced to a women with little or no self-respect, always after crumbs. It would not be. She will never return to that life again. Lifting her arms, she felt the wind in her ears, even as the music reached crescendo..........
