If you want to help me, do it now!” Rich bastard? He should call himself that! Irritation surges up inas | frown deeply looking at him. If guests find out that | have a mad ex boyfriend coming to the party and making a scene, it'll be the end for bothand my mom. God knows how they will gossip after that.
“No, Zack. You need to go hnow,” | harden my tone. “I'll think about helping you out but that is it! You don't get to tellwhat to do. Those days are over, and | will not take more shits from you!” He lapses into silence, his head down.
Just when | thought he has quitted talking nonsense, he looks up toagain. His face is lit with an insane and twisted smile.
“So you won't help me, right Nat?” he takes a step closer, almost whispering. “I should have known. You are always a fake, cheap, BITCH.” A shaky cry for help almost escapes my lips, but suddenly a hard knock falls on the back of my neck, causing a sharp pain to spread over my body immediately.
The last thing | saw before falling into the darkness was the burning hatred in his eyes.

The party is about to start, and she said that she would save her first dance to me. So where is she now? An unsettling feeling appears, and | decide to call her again. But suddenly my phone is taking away from me.
“What are you doing man?” James appears, followed by Katherine. Their parents are friends to my dad, so naturally they are invited as well. This is a small town.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm| snatch my phone back from him and grumble, “fuck off.” Katherine looks sideways and asks, “Where is Nat by the way? Haven't seen her since | got here.” “How would | know?” | roll my eyes. Yet the uneasy feeling in my heart intensifies.
They stay withfor a while and then are summoned back by their parents, as | keep standing by the dance floor, distracted. My eyelids keep twitching for no reasons, makingeven more edgy.
“Eason.” Someone callsfrom behind. | turn around and find it's my mom. Not now. | don’t have the energy for her now.
Yet she walks up toand stands by my side. “Eason, the girl | want you meet is here today. So, | was hoping that you could invite her for your first dance.” “What?” | frown. “No, forget it. | already have a dance partner.” She raises her eyebrows. “And who is that?” grit my teeth and stay in silence, “Toi khéng ddi héi nhiéu.
