Am I seeing things? Is he not angry that Josephine’s fangirling over a guy
singer? Josephine turned to Ethan. “The concert is this Friday. Can you come
with me?”
Ethan nodded. “Sure.” It was then Josephine realized that she was so engrossed
with the conversation, she neglected him. She felt for his hand so that she could
hold it, but she touched his thigh instead. That was when Ethan grabbed her
hand, and she smiled at him. Ethen said gently, “I'll get you the best spot.”
It wasn't loud, but everyone heard it. All of them could feel the love in the air. Tori
looked down, envy filling her heart. She couldn't believe a guy could actually
allow his girlfriend to fangirl over a guy singer, and to think he would get her the
tickets for the best spot so they could enjoy the concert together. Have I been
wrong about men?
Food was served eventually, and everyone dug in. Josephine cut up a piece of
steak and fed it to Ethan. After he gulped it down, he fed her a piece as well, and
she munched down on it. They were showing their love openly, and everyone
was envious.
Soon, it was time to raise some toast. Atticus made the first one, and that was
when Tori found an excuse to go to Ethan. She held up a glass of red wine and
swayed her hips as she walked toward him, and then she placed a hand on the
table. Sweetly, she said, “A toast, Mr. Quarles.”
Ethan waved her down. “I can’t. I'm driving later.” “I'll take that, Tori.” Josephine
stood up and raised Ethan's glass for him, causing Tori's smile to freeze.
“Congratulations on finding a good boyfriend, Josephine.”
“Thank you. And I hope you'll find your happiness one day.” Tori went back to her
seat, but her mood was foul. She dressed herself up perfectly tonight, and yet
she was now among the crowd she looked down on. She felt like she was a joke.
Frustrated, she downed glass after glass of wine. A male worker who liked her
said, “You should stop, Tori.”
Tori was a good drinker, so this much wasn't enough to take her out. Josephine
then went to the restroom, and Tori did the same. Right after Josephine finished
washing her hands, Tori came out of the cubicle. They stared at each other in the
mirror, and Tori blurted, “What did you do to him to make him so infatuated with
you?”
“Tori, I don't care what you do with the other guys, but if you try to take Ethan, I'll
make you pay, Josephine warned as she looked at Tori in the mirror. “Is that a
threat? You're not even that established as his girlfriend yet, Tori snapped back.
“Don't challenge me,” said Josephine quietly. Tori shot her a look of mockery.
“You're just insecure. I know men, and Ethan's the kind where women would
throw themselves at his feet whenever he goes. If you're that insecure about
yourself, you should leave.”
Josephine refused to talk to her, but Toril wouldn't stop. “Do you really think he'll
only love you forever? Any man with money will never love a single woman.
They're the same, and. women will always be the object they chase after. He's
not going to only love you forever. Even without me, someone else will try to take
him away from you.”
