Lately I have been craving to eat some pizza and pasta so I decided to go to an Italian restaurant.
When I got to the restaurant, I looked for a vacant seat and called the waiter.
“Hi, can I get the menu please? Thank you” I told the waiter.
He then went to get the menu and handed it to me.
“Call me when you are ready Ma’am” he politely told me.
I scanned the menu and I wanted to get a lot off of it. It was so difficult to choose. I was contemting on getting the 5 cheese pizza and Carbonarabo or the pepperoni pizza and spaghettibo.
Later on, I decided to get the 5 cheese pizza and Carbonarabo and paired it with a strawberry milkshake. I felt so satisfied that I was able to eat what I craved.
After eating, It was already half past one so I went home right away. I changed into my dress and drove to the location where my rehearsal party is going to take ce.
When I got there, a lot of people were already waiting. Most of my friends and family were already present. I got excited and at the same time, nervous too.
I scanned the crowd for Donald. After some time, I found him. When our eyes met, I smiled from ear to ear.
“Hey baby” I greeted him.
“Hello baby. What took you so long?” He asked.
“I’m sorry. I got a little carried away with eating lunch today.” I reasoned out.
Donald gave out a small chuckle.
“Oh. I see” he said.
After our little talk, the organizers were already asking us to get ready. Donald and I went to the back to get our clothes fixed and get a little retouch.
When we were done getting ready, Donald approached me.
“Are you okay?” Donald asked me.
“Yeah. I’m good. I’m just a little nervous.” I replied.
“Why? Is it because of all these people?” He asked while smiling.
“Yeah I guess so.”
“You don’t have to worry about anything baby. Everything is in order.” Donald said, trying tofort me.
A moment of silence passed before he asked again.
“Are you and my mother all right?”
“Yeah, I guess we are good. I mean, at least we are not fighting” I told him honestly.
“Oh. Okay. Just be a little more patient baby, please?” He told me.
“Yes. I promise I will. She will be my mom too after all.” I looked at him and smiled.
After that, Donald and I went to our ces and the rehearsal party started.
“Hello and Wee to the rehearsal party of Linda and Donald”
Diana’s voice rang through the whole venue. She was in charge of the opening remarks. Everyone apuded as she spoke.
After her remarks, the rest of the rehearsal went on smoothly and after some time, we were already finished.
Of course, after the rehearsal, the partymenced.
When Diana’s hosting for the rehearsal was done, she went off the podium. When she got off, I could hear everyone talking about her. I looked at her and immediately understood why people were talking.
Diana dressed up for this event. She looked stunning in her cream gown. It fitted her perfectly. It had short sleeves and a v neckline which emphasized her neckline.
Her hair was also loose and straightened. It ended right above her shoulders. That is why almost everyone’s eyes were on her, and she became the focus of tonight.
“God, she looks so beautiful.” Dn, who was standing next to me, said.
“I know.” Elena agreed. She was also right beside me.
Both my friends looked at her andmented on her appearance nicely. I cannot believe what I just heard. I wanted to cover my ears.
“What?” I asked both of them.
None of them answered me. They just brushed it off.
A little whileter, I could hear her greeting other guests.
“Oh. Hi. It’s good to see you here.” She greeted one of the guests.
“Hi Enoch, I am d you could make it.” She said to one of Donald’s friends.
Later on, she approached us.
“Oh, Elena. Hi. Thank you for being here today.” She greeted the others and went to Elena and them.
“Oh, of course.” Elena looked very excited.
She obviously didn’t expect Diana to say hello to her.
Watching their encounterstarted to make me emotional. I don’t get why she is acting all friendly towards Diana today. She stood up for me when we fought days ago so what happened?
After greeting Elena, she looked at Dn.
“So, you must be Dn” Diana said with a smile while reaching out to Dn for a handshake.
“Ah. Yes. That is me.” Dn answered.
“I’ve heard about your delicious dinner service. I would rmend you to a lot of my friends.” Diana said again.
“Oh really? Thank you!” Dn answered excitedly.
“Yes, I have heard great things about you from Linda.” She told Dn while giving me a meaningful look
Diana exchanged pleasantries with them to please my friends. She knows that I do not like what she is doing with my friends right now. And she is obviously satisfied with seeing me ufortable. I guess the older you get, the more confident you are.
“Oh, Miss Field, I must say…” Dn was overwhelmed with excitement.
“Please call me Diana, I insist that you call me Diana.” Diana cut him off.
I could not take what I was hearing.
“Well, I’m going to get something to drink. Do you want some?” I suddenly asked them.
“Yes please. Thank you Linda.” Dn answered.
He only said yes but he did not even move an inch at where he is at. I was starting to get a little annoyed.
“Okay” I replied coldly.
I left and got us drinks. When I came back, Diana and my friends were still talking.
“I am an avid fan of yours, and I am really happy to see you in person.” Dn looked at Diana with a big smile on his face and said that.
“Oh, you are adorable. Thank you.” Diana pinched Dn’s chin and smiled and was ready to leave.
“Thank you. Goodbye, Diana.” Dn said.
Diana waved her hand and left.
“I really like her.” Dn said to Elena.
“Oh you like her Dn?” I asked him sarcastically.
“Linda…” Dn tried to say something.
“Did you have a good talk just now?” I asked both of them again with a hint of jealousy.
“Oh dear, she came up and chatted with us, what do you want us to do, turn a blind eye?” Elena looked at me and said. It is obvious that she liked Diana too.
“That’s right. That is what I wanted you to do.” I told them frankly.
I just really don’t want my friends to like people I don’t like. It is heartbreaking.
[Linda’s Perspective]
“Linda, we just entertained her because she approached us first. We did not want to be rude.” Dn exined further.
“Okay, okay. Fine.” I told them, epting defeat
“Since you are okay with the topic, then it’s no problem to ask for her picture right?” Dn ask again
Dn really makes me sad right now. I made it very clear that I wanted them to turn a blind eye but he even wants a picture with Diana. I felt my chest tightened.
In the end, I didn’t say a word and just red at Dn.
“I also want a picture with her, Dn.” Elena then added.
I could not hold my jealousy and anger anymore.
“Which side are you on? Did Diana send you to torture me? How can you say such a thing in front of me?” I looked at Dn at Elena sadly.
I sincerely felt betrayed. The two of them felt different about Diana when we fought but now, after greeting her it seemed like they changed.
These two “friends” of mine made me want to cry.
“I am on your side dear. I won’t leave you alone. Just to be clear, I’m just a fan of her, okay? But you are my friend so I will always choose you” Dn exined.
“But you know I don’t like her, Dn” I rebutted.
“Yes. I know, but that does not mean we should hate her too.”
I can’t believe what Dn just said. So, am I the viin here?
“Don’t worry Linda. I promise you that you would always have me on your side. So, can I get the photos now? Dn asked again. He asked that while making a funny face hoping that I would agree.
I closed my eyes for a moment and let out a deep sigh. I know that he will not give up until he gets that photo. That is why I am afraid that if I say no, Dn would probably hold that against me.N?velDrama.Org content.
“Oh, you don’t have to promise me anything Dn. I know that you don’t care about my feelings anyway. Just go ahead and take the photo.” I pretended to be mad.
