PAIN INSIDE MY HEART

=====================

8:00 am

"How was the first day of the marriage?"

I stopped going downstairs when I heard the voice of the man he was talking to on the cellphone.  As it just landed upright on the table, maybe they were on a video call.  Kobe glanced at me but only for a moment.

"Don't bother me in the morning, you'd better not call."

I even heard Kobe answer and I went to the kitchen to prepare our breakfast.  I'm looking in the refrigerator for something to cook when Kobe comes in.

"I'll cook for a while, I'm sorry and I woke up at noon because--"

"Is it good to sleep with air conditioning?"  It's an annoying question.

I didn’t answer and just continued what I was doing.

"Don't cook, dress properly. I'll take you on our outing with friends, maybe my father will scold me again if I don't take you. Just make sure you don't do anything that annoys me and whatever.  what you see don't let my parents know if you want us to get along. "

At the length of what he said I only nodded and he left me, but somehow I was happy because he would take me.  I immediately climbed upstairs and looked for clothes there with my mom’s gifts to me, Kobe.

I was wearing a white dress that was off my shoulder and it didn’t reach my knees.  I paired it with flat sandals and bit by bit my little bag and the cellphone they gifted me.  I brought a bath because it said outing raw, but I don't want a swimsuit that is embarrassing even though I have a body.  I just brought shorts and sleeveless.

When I went downstairs, Kobe was right there talking on the cellphone, he looked at me for a moment but immediately avoided it.  He was wearing shorts and slippers, a polo shirt that was also white with the button open to his chest.  He looked even more handsome in my eyes.

"Come on,"  he said after putting down the cellphone.

I followed him and got in the car, preferring to sit in the back.  We were quiet in the car and I simply glanced at him and sometimes our eyes met.  I let my hair fall over my shoulders and I just applied a thin red lipstick.

--------

We also drove for two hours and I fell asleep because of the cold inside the car.  Arriving there I couldn’t believe where we went because of the very beautiful resort.

"Oh my gosh! Kobe, good and you went."

I was shocked and didn’t expect the woman to kiss him, but I immediately took my eyes off there and pretended to be looking for something in the bag.

"Who is she?"

The woman asked so I looked up but Kobe didn't answer.

"Aa, I'm his friend."  I just answered and he nodded and hugged Kobe's waist.

I had some pain in my heart but I just let it go and followed them.  Kobe didn't look back at me as he hugged the woman and followed them and I thought.

When are you going to do that to me too, Kobe?  And how long will I be able to laugh at my madness?

"I thought you weren't going, well and you took Mrs ---"

"Hi, I came along for fun."  Kobe's friend would cut me off.  He seemed to understand and ignored that he and Kobe had already walked with the woman at the same time.

"Aren't you going inside yet?"

I turned my attention to a friend of Kobe's who was still here and had been left behind.

"Aa... Yes."  I answered and I was surprised because he held out his hand to me.

"Nicko Natividad, Camilla right?"  Smiling introduce it.

Embarrassed, I nodded to him and held out his hand, after which we walked together.

"What occasion here? And whose resort is this?"  I asked him as we walked.

"It's up to my parents and me to manage it, then it's my birthday today."

I stopped and he was surprised.  "For me, happy birthday. In case I don't have a gift for you, I don't know what it is as long as Kobe just took me with him."  bowed I said and I heard her weak laugh.

"It's nothing, I'm not young enough to give as a gift, it's ok that you're here."

I couldn't look directly at him because I was taken aback by his smile especially his evenly white teeth.

"Come inside we might be looking."  It said and turned away.

I just followed him and I immediately heard a loud sound, we turned in the hallway I saw a lot of women and men in swimsuits and men in swimming trunks and the others in shorts.  They were having fun while the others were dancing, my eye searching for, Kobe.

Until his eyes widened at the side of the pool and he was there with the woman earlier.  The woman has to wear a sexy swimsuit and she is sexy.  While Kobe was without a top, the woman was dancing with him so I looked away.

I hope I don't come, I look like I'm out of place here, then this is how I'll see.

I walked over and saw that there was a long table next to the loud sound system.  There were a variety of wines there and there were small glasses there.  I took one and I translated it here to the man, he smiled and he translated the wine.  I swallowed it immediately and the heat immediately spread all over my body.

"Maybe you'll get drunk here and what do you do."

I looked at Kobe's hand that clung to my arm tightly and he stared at me.

"Don't get me wrong. Have fun. I won't do anything you won't like."  I answered him and he let go of my arm.  It left and I didn’t know where he was going.

I had a strange shot when I felt like I had to CR.  I was looking for the c.r when I heard the woman's growl and I approached there, I was surprised to see because Kobe and the woman were kissing while leaning against the door.  After that, the door opened and they entered, I even saw that Kobe looked at me before finally entering.

Instead of C.R., I was no longer able to soften my knees as I walked and tried to hold back my tears from falling because of the thought that Kobe now has a roommate.

"Camilla, are you okay?"

I couldn't answer Nicko and I don't know I suddenly approached him and leaned my forehead on his shoulder.  Here my tears kept dripping and I couldn't stop myself, I didn't hear a single word from Nicko, he just let me cry.

It's very painful, even to say that we just forced our marriage and that's because of what I did.  Why is your dream so high, Camilla?  For i.d, you saw you craved a Kobe Herrera, now are you going to cry?

After I cried Nicko took me outside where there were no people here.  He was standing as I adjusted myself.

"Thank you and I'm sorry."  embarrassed I said.

"It's nothing, if you need someone to cry I'm just here." it's a serious answer.

I didn't answer and I stood up suddenly when I saw Kobe, he immediately pulled me by the hand and dragged me.  I just looked at Nicko as he just stared at me.  I didn’t know where Kobe would take me because he didn’t say anything until we stopped at a door and he opened it.

He pulled me inside and reluctantly pushed me onto the big bed.

"Also Nicko, are you going to flirt? Is your personality that low and you're the only two there !?"

I couldn’t answer him because he was so mad at me and I couldn’t understand him.  I just stared at him as he smiled in front of me.

"Just stay here and don't come out."  once behind it.

I got up immediately to chase him and in my desire to reach the door closing 'I blocked my hand and pinched it.

"What the !? Are you crazy? Why did you do that?"

I sat in excruciating pain as I held my hand that had hit the door.  I was surprised when he took my hand and looked at it, I was looking at his hair, and lifting his face hit our eyes.  His lips were about to touch mine but I avoided him.

I don't want him to kiss me after he kissed that woman.

I heard her sigh and stood up.

"Wait for me here I'll just take the medicine."  he just said and went out the door.

I was left stunned as I sat here on the carpet.
