Chapter 19: Expectations!
Suzume was very tired and was going to her home by herself. She decided to call her best friend,Sukuma. Sukuma picked up the call after 2 minutes. "Hey,what are you doing? Should we have lunch together? Please!! I know that you are busy but we haven't met for so long!" Said Suzume.
"Uhh,you are so clingy!! Anyways,I can't come to have lunch with you right now. Since I am in the middle of a meeting. These meetings are endless! I don't know what to do! My goodness! By the way,did something happen to you? Your voice seems low." Asked Sukuma.
"Nah, nothing happened with me,I just got scolded by my boss. He's a total ass! I hate him from the bottom of my heart! It's really sad that you can't come to meet me right now. I would be so happy if you were there with me right now. I know that you're in the middle of a meet...hello? Hello? You there? Sukuma? What the heck!? Is the network bad here?
Hello!?"exclaimed Suzume." Hah! I should just call her again!" Said Suzume to herself.
Suzume called Sukuma,she didn't pick up,she kept calling her and called her for nearly 10 times but sadly,she didn't pick up.
Suzume's thoughts: why isn't she picking up my call!? Did she block me!? I guess she is really busy in her meeting right now. I should not irritate her,I guess. Maybe,she will talk to me in the evening. Suzume decided to go to her favorite restaurant.
Suzume's thoughts: this is Sukuma's favorite restaurant. We always used to come here when we bunked our classes. It's been so long since I got the chance to come and eat in this restaurant. Anyways,I should go in now.
Suzume went inside the restaurant and gave her order to the receptionist. The receptionist assigned her a table and told her to wait for her order. As soon as she turned towards her table,she saw Sukuma sitting in the corner most table.
There was also someone sitting there with her. Suzume's thoughts: why is she here? Didn't she say that she was in the middle of a meeting? Anyways,now that I am here I am going to surprise her! Wait,there's also someone sitting with her.
Hah, whatever she's my bestie,I can't just ignore her! I need to talk to her! Suzume went close to the table and saw that Sukuma was sitting with Haruto. They both were holding eachother's hands and there was also a post card used for giving love letters.
As soon as Suzume saw this,tears rolled down her eyes." Wh....why did you do this to me!? Sukuma,why!? What did I do so wrong? You both are dating!? Is this the reason why you dumped me Haruto!? We were in love with eachother for since highschool!
If you didn't love me,then you should have just told me! Why did you have to betray me like this!? That too, with my bestie!? Sukuma,I kn....know you ca...can't do this! He definitely lu..lured you! Right? O...or are you both pranking me right now!? Ple...please don't do this to me! Please tell me that this is a lie!
I don't want to lose my only best friend! We are besties from highschool! Don't do this to me! Please tell me that it's a lie! Please!" Said Suzume while crying. "Hahah,do you really think that I did this? And your bestie is completely innocent!? Your best friend always had a crush on me!
She told me to break up with you on the wedding day,since she already knew that your dad was going to get arrested! My family business and relations would be doomed,if I married you! You didn't even have a job! You would be just a leech! Living of off my money!
Our marriage was always decided! Our families met before we were even born! When my mother came to know that your mother is going to give birth to a girl,she rushed to your house and asked them to marry you off to me! Even though you were 3 years younger than me!
I was never ever interested in you! I always liked girls of my age,I didn't want to marry a young girl! So,I decided to break the engagement as soon as I saw a flaw in your family.
It's your fault that you had too many expectations from me! I never told you that I will always love you! We were just dating,we never even kissed! You never let me touch you! Even looking at you makes me feel weird! Let alone marriage! I always thought of you as my little sister! Not my wife!
It's your fault that you had a crush on me since we were in highschool! Love is not something that can be forced! But my parents never understood this! Anyways,now that I am dating Sukuma,you should just get lost,I will send the divorce papers after a month.
Till then stay whereever you want to." Said Haruto. "Sukuma,he's not good for you! Don't do this to yourself,you can tell me if he's forcing you to do this! I will sue him,but please tell me that you don't want to do this!"said Suzume while holding Sukuma.
Sukuma pushed Suzume away. "What do you mean I am lying? Why do you think that I am lying? I became your bestie because I wanted to stay close to Haruto. And we are dating behind your back since a long time! We had our first kiss when we first met eachother!
The girl you met that day,in the restaurant was just a cover up for me! That's it! Anyways,now that your dad is in the jail,I can talk to you the way I want to.
