He's Not For Me

CHAPTER 19 | On Who Should I Believe?

Bianca stepped into Airin's house after she said that to Billy who was right behind her, she was very upset and could not forget the incident last night at the flower shop, although not her cheated self but she could feel the pain, Bianca left Billy without further ado. Arriving inside the house Bianca immediately greeted by Airin's mother with friendly.

“Bi, you coming? Airin in his room, just go up ya”, greet Airin's mother to Bianca with a smile. Bianca went up as usual and into Airin's room, she found her best friend happily while looking at the red tulips and teddy bear in her arms.

“Bi, you coming? you don't go to work?”, said Airin who saw his best friend come to see him when he had to work. Bianca simply shook her head and and placed the lunchbox on the side table where Airin lay.

“Eat, it's mochi from mama for you”, Bianca said as she placed it on the table next to Airin, then she sat down to accompany him. Airin's face that looks very happy again makes Bianca unable to say it. But this time inevitably he had to do it, even though he could not bear, Airin deserves to know what really happened with his relationship with Billy so far.

“Can I see her smile fade from my best friend's face? But I have no other choice, if I keep hiding it am I a good friend to him?”, he murmured inwardly. Bianca reaches into her cell phone in her pants pocket and opens a gallery that Billy has in it with a woman he does not know.

“Rin, remember I never said that Billy was having an affair?”, asked Bianca while trying to give Airin real evidence. But Bianca's hand was thrown from Airin's face, however, Airin still remained in disbelief with all Bianca's remarks that said her lover was cheating.

“Didn't you see our relationship is fine? He always remembers me, even Billy comes every time I need him. Please stop all this nonsense Bianca, I do not know what happened to you actually”, said Airin broke all what Bianca was trying to say to him, but Bianca did not give up, a hundred times Airin refused, a thousand times he would prove it, until Airin believed him.

“So is your relationship okay? Who is the man in this photo? Why does he make out with other women?”. Bianca asks by forcing Airin to look at the photo she gave him.

“Bi, have you seen me cry because of Billy? Have you seen Billy hurt me? Have you ever seen Billy being rude to me? He even sacrificed his time for me, he was willing to leave his job and neglect his health for me. Now should I ignore everything he did to me just because one photo of you might look pretty convincing?”, asked Airin.

Bianca was silent to Airin's reply, all that Airin said was true, she never once saw Billy hurt Airin, she said, everything Billy does is a good thing that always manages to make Airin happy. However, this picture is not a lie, what he saw last night was not a mistake, for him Billy had cheated on Airin, only he did not know how to make Airin believe it.

“If you were me, would you trust this photo? Or will you be like me who trusts Billy more?”, continued Airin again when he saw Bianca began to soften before him.

“I know Billy looks so good in your eyes Rin, and so in my eyes. But what I saw last night wasn't a lie. I see with my own eyes Billy making out with other women and even making out with her, why can't you understand it Rin?”, she said, bianca's growl saw her sahabt still stubborn and more defending her lover when before him had seen concrete evidence of Billy's affair.

“So you stick to your stand to believe in Billy when all the evidence you've seen?”, asked Bianca who had run out of words to make Airin realize that Billy had betrayed him. Airin did not respond to Bianca's question and turned her face away from her best friend. Truly, Bianca does not want Airin to be hurt when she has to know her lover's affair but before it's too late and Airin is sicker than this, Bianca tries to prevent it and says everything she knows. Unfortunately, no matter how hard he tried to tell Airin the truth, everything was in vain, Airin chose to believe in his lover rather than all the real evidence Bianca gave him.

“Alright, I'm home. Call me if anything happens to you Rin”, Bianca said, leaving Airin after all her best efforts.

Airin stared at the screen of her phone, Bianca sent the photo to Airin's phone. Just as Bianca had worked hard to convince Airin, Airin had a hard time accepting all this madness, the photo was very real and Airin was very sure that the man in the photo was Billy. Now he felt a very great dilemma in his heart, on the one hand he trusted Billy very much but on the other hand it was not easy for him to ignore Bianca's words to him along with all the evidence he gave.

“Trust Bi, this is not easy for me”, she said with tears coming out as she continued to look at the painful photo.
