Novel & Cerita Fool Me Twice Can't Get Fooled Again

I could hear Christy sigh at the other side, I know what I said might be difficult to believe, especially for her, knowing how much I feel about Adrian. But someone once told me that if you were fooled and hurt once, it’s called a mistake but if you are fooled and hurt the second time by the same person, it’s called stupidity. And I am not stupid, I have never felt this way for any guy in my life before but just because I do now, doesn’t mean I am going to throw away all my morals and be stupid in love.

he whispered. "No," I corrected, leaning closer until our faces were inches apart. "A fool is someone who doesn't know better. You knew exactly what you were doing when you used my love to build this company. You used me as a stepping stone and kicked me away when you reached the top. Now, I’m just pulling the stone out from under your feet. Don't pretend you're shocked."

Blinded by the what ifs that I still carried. For a while, my relationship with him, Claire and that of my parents had been ruined. Because I had been too stubborn to see what they saw. A year later here we are. Miranda having broken me for the second time. This time it’s even worse because I knew what she was deep inside and I still fell for her traps. What’s the saying; fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me. It's a bitter pill to swallow knowing I was the fool that got fooled twice. It fucking hurts.

Can you please give me a second chance, please baby! How could I ever trust this monster again, never again am I going to fall for his false tricks! It's just his crocodile tears and he is like a lizard who can change colours anytime. I have to save myself this time and for now, I need to be cool and calm to get rid of him from my life and this time forever.

The shocked cry was swiftly drowned out by another voice that cracked through the room like thunder: “Hell no! Are you blind, you miserable wretch? How dare you insult Mr. Brooke! You must have a death wish!”

"You liar, why didn't you wait for me before leaving? You said you'd wait for me! Don't you know that liars get long noses? "I'm really angry, got it? I don't forgive liars!" I sat in front of her grave, prattling on and on about anything and everything interesting that happened since we were children. In the end, as the sunset turned red, I wiped my tears. "You know what? It's fine. You've just gotten ahead faster than me this time. Wait for me, alright? I'll go find you the moment I take my revenge. "If you break your promise again, I'll really be angry at you!"

Her words seemed full of care and concern for me, but the hair on my arms stood on end. In my first life, after drinking the chicken soup Jessica made for me, I blacked out. I didn't hear the station alarm going off. In the end, I was labeled the one responsible for the fire, while Stanley Porter became the hero who put it out. The second time around, to avoid repeating the same mistake, I not only gave up on the fire captain position but also deliberately left work early to go home. Yet, after drinking the chicken soup Jessica had made, I fell into a deep sleep again.

I shook my head. “I don’t understand sarcasm. “So I do not accept apologies that are not sincere. “You are apologizing because you are afraid of Claire, not because you believe you were wrong.” Their faces went pale. They hurried back to their seats. After that, I stopped forcing myself to adjust to unspoken social rules. I stopped trying to guess what people really meant. Around me, people began saying exactly what they thought. One afternoon, Jack came to me with a failing physics paper. “Mason, am I actually stupid?”

I said to him, enraged as he laughed. “Believe me, he is fucking foolish. The dumbest guy I've ever seen actually. And he's going to keep being dumb, and I am going to make it that way. I can't believe you two tried to play a stupid trick on me. You really thought it was going to work? I was going to fall for your stupid manipulation. No, I would not. You both are so funny. Makes me confused on how to act,” I continued.

It was foolish of me to believe her but she was good at acting and I was desperate for a friend and naïve enough to believe the wolves of Silver Moon would accept me one day. In the end, it turned out to be a sadistic ploy to give me hope and then snatch it in the cruellest way. It was a joke that made them laugh, bending over and slapping their knees as I realized Felicity was pure evil. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. “I am sorry. I wanted to say hi but it looked like you would pass without stopping so I grabbed you.” She hung her head. It was a pose I was all too familiar with, one that I used all the time to make people see I was harmless.
