^ Thanks sis, I like your story anyway. ---------------------------------------------------------- [b]CHAPTER SIXTEEN[/b] Daniel was surprised. Daniel: What..? Karen: I.. I love Jason more than I do to you. I love him so much.. And I'm willing to leave you for him. (What the heck am I saying?!) Daniel: Is this some kind of practical joke? Karen stared on Daniel's eyes. Karen: I'm serious.. Daniel.. I.. I don't want you back.. I'll.. I'll stay with Jason.. Daniel clenched his fists. Daniel: Why..? Was it because I became coward and left you behind..? Karen: I'm sorry Daniel.. But.. But all the feelings I have for you are gone.. Can we be just friends..? Daniel stared at her with loneliness in his eyes. Daniel: What more could I do..? He sighed. Daniel: I really like you, Karen. But if you really don't want me back.. I guess I can't do anything else.. Karen: Thank you.. Daniel.. Daniel: Then.. Do I deserve a big hug from a friend..? Karen smiled then nodded. She hugged Daniel and Daniel hugged her back. Suddenly, Jason appeared. Jason: Ka-Karen.. Karen pushed Daniel. Karen: Jason.. Jason: What is this..? Daniel: Jason. Look, you- Jason: Shut up! .. Karen.. Are you cheating on me..? Karen: No Jason- Jason: Now.. It's clearer to me. You really want to cancel the marriage after all. Jason walked away. Karen: Jason!! Karen walks after him. People are looking at them. Karen was following Jason until the lobby of the hotel where there was only the two of them. Karen: Jason!! Listen to me!! Karen pulled Jason's sleeve and hugged him from behind. Jason got a little surprised. Jason: What..? What do you still need to prove me..? Are you really having fun of hurting me? Huh?! Karen: Daniel and I are- Jason removed Karen's hands and faced her. Jason: What?! What is it?! Karen: Hey!! Don't shout of me idiot!! In the first place, you just agreed to the marriage and said you love me because of your pride!!- Jason: That isn't true!! And why shouldn't I?! Karen: Why are you so mad?! Jason: Because I love you can't you see?! Karen: Huh..? Jason was looking on the floor. Jason: All of what I've said.. Was true.. I.. I really like you Karen. I didn't agree to the marriage because I was forced. I volunteered myself. I.. I was mad at Daniel because he's close to you. I.. I want you to transfer to my school because I want to keep an eye on you.. I.. I've always like you Karen. Karen blushed. Jason: But.. But now.. I proved to myself.. You.. You will never ever like me- Karen then jumped to Jason and hugged him. Jason: Karen.. Karen: You're an idiot, Jason.. The hug I gave him was a goodbye.. You idiot.. Jason: Huh..? Karen: I.. I don't like Daniel anymore.. Jason: Could this mean that you like me? Karen pushed Jason. Karen: I-Idiot..!! Jason: Because you said you don't like him anymore. So that means, you like me. Karen: Eh?! Stupid..!! Karen walks away. Jason: Karen! Karen looked at Jason and smiled. Karen: But I'll be trying to like you, Jason. (W-What did I say?!) Jason: Karen.. [i]To be continued.[/i]
