Alden kissed my neck which made my body feel so shaky.
"Alden let me go. Mark is waiting." My words were trying to get myself out of Alden's grip.
"Oh that fucking Mark... I'm going crazy." Alden.
If Alden doesn't stop this right now, I'm likely to lose control of myself and I don't want that to happen.
"Starla, I'm in the car. Come out soon." Mark said across the room.
I quickly pushed the disappointed-looking Alden out of the room and warned him not to repeat that again where he looked so upset.
I'm wearing an oversize sweater and jeans. After that then went out and went to see Mark who had been patient waiting for me long enough. We went to a comfortable place to hangout and ordered my favorite food.
"Starla, can I ask you something that bothers me?" Said Mark.
"Of course." Reply me.
"Do you like her?" Ask Mark again.
"What's? Why are you asking me that?" I was nervous about him.
"You didn't say no." Mark replied in a sad voice.
"Mark, everything is not like that. I don't know about my own feelings I can't lie. I don't know why I'm getting closer to her than ever." Honest tidbits.
"Just tell me that I still have a chance to win you over. Please don't give up on me. I've never felt anything like this before for anyone else. I'd do anything for you, just let me keep trying." Said Mark.
I can only be quiet.
"No matter what happens, I will never let you get away from my life. You are my best friend, the most important person in my life. I don't want to lose you, so promise me that you'll always be with me forever." Mark said to me again.
"Of course I'll do it." Reply me.
"Have you thought about moving out of that house, asked Mark.
"I don't know Mark. I live in the most comfortable place in the city. I got Tia, our waitress at home. The house was beautiful and I had no reason to leave it. You understand, right? I'm sorry Mark. I know Alden was very rude to you. I swear that he is not bad. He helped me a few times and I owe him." I tried to explain everything to Mark.
"Yes, I understand. All right, it's okay. I can't force anything against you. I hate it, but that doesn't mean you have to move. I'm sorry." Said Mark.
All the way back home I really thought. I thought about how I could tell Mark that I didn't want to mess up my friendship with him and I feel at least for now I'm more interested in Alden than he is. I'm not trying to fool him or anything. I just want to give myself some time before I make everything feel certain.
"We arrived. Thank you for accompanying me today Starla." Said Mark.
Like a gentleman so perfect, Mark opened the car door for me. As I walked out, she held my hand and hugged me.
I was about to leave when Mark stopped me and held my hand. He kissed my forehead.
"Bye Mark, I'll see you tomorrow." I waved to him.
After Mark was gone, I then went inside the house and saw Alden who looked so angry looking at me.
"What?" I'm confused.
"How dare he kiss you!" Alden looked so upset.
"Just like you did." Laughing.
"Alden, what are you doing?" My speech.
"Clean the germs from yourself." The reply.
"Oh come on Alden, why are you so possessive of me." My speech.
"Because you're mine." Reply to Alden who finally said that.
"WHAT??" My speech.
"You're mine Starla. Only mine. I don't want to let another man touch my woman." The reply.
'My woman? Shit!'
I suddenly felt nervous and didn't know how to react after listening to his words.
"Oh shut up!" I said and ran into my room without looking back.
I dropped myself on the bed and felt something shake inside my stomach.
'Is this what people call butterflies flying in the stomach?'
I covered my warm face with a pillow. I smile like a madman.
'Why does this make me so happy? Does he like me too or just want to play me?'
He looks like a playboy. I mustn't lose my mind just because of that little thing.
I was lying in my room in the same position and I didn't know how long I had been doing it. Out of nowhere I heard the sound of a paper being torn off. I got up from my bed and saw a piece of paper under my door. I got up and took the paper and opened it and read it.
'Come to the park quickly...'
I then put on my sandals and moved quickly towards the garden area, where it was the most beautiful place in the house.
Arriving there, I was so surprised to see the sight presented before my eyes.
There was a soft seat on the ground with an adorable canopy covered with white cloth. What made my eyes sparkle was that the entire area was filled with a beautiful light as well as some lanterns.
There is also so beautifully arranged on the table, there are sweet foods and drinks. Everything was prepared by Alden with romantic music being played that warmed my heart. It really made me feel melted and I just stood there staring at everything.
It all makes me so happy. Alden came closer to me and took my hand and made the distance between us so close. He took me to sit down and I finally asked him.
"What's all this for? I mean it's so beautiful. I'm really fascinated." My speech.
"Do you like it? I just want to thank you for being the most important part of my life and for being your conversation partner." Alden.
"I'm the one who should be thanking you Alden. You've always been there for me, helping me with a lot of things. You saved my life. Speaking of all that, I never knew that you were starting to become the most important person in my life. I thought you were just a delinquent from a rich family who lives in this mansion because of your papa's money." My speech.
"Don't judge the book by its cover. All right, now eat this cake I've baked. I'll tell you something about myself." Alden.
After that she then fed me with a spoonful of delicious chocolate cake and melted in my mouth.
Seriate....
