Is this destiny?

"So… Madison, is there something you actually want to say me, or are you just going to stare at me?" Sarah lazily looked at Madison while thinking that she is so… hyperactive. What's with all the small hand movements?

"Ha! You finally said my name! So you know me!" Madison declared victoriously.

Sarah shook her head. Of course, she knows who this girl is. The shameless pursuer of her fiancé who ended up in that strip club… the same girl who got facepalmed by Aiden… and sent to a non-existent event by JoAnna… and got mental and academic trashing by Sophia. Sarah is not good with names or faces, but after Aiden repeated the facepalming incident few times, and she watched that video more than once, combined with knowledge that she is after Aiden, Madison got etched into Sarah's active memory. But she can't tell that to Madison, at least not yet. Sarah wants to see what Madison has in store for her. So far, besides some random nonsense, Madison didn't tell her why she confronted her in the ladies' room.

Considering that no one entered the restroom so far, Sarah concluded that Madison put the 'cleaning in progress' sign at the front door. That confirms that Madison came with an agenda.

Sarah did her best to look indifferent and shrugged. "I don't know you, but you repeated at least five times that your name is Madison. I would be mentally challenged if I don't remember it by now… Is there something you want? This is a wedding, and I don't plan to spend it in the restroom. I want to go back there before someone notices that I'm missing."

Madison straightened her back and narrowed her eyes at Sarah. "You mean… Aiden?"

"Yes.", Sarah tilted her head slightly and looked innocently at Madison who was glaring at her. "Do you think that if you stare enough at me, my beauty will be magically transferred to you?"

Seeing that Madison is not responding, and besides clenching her hands into fists there is no other reaction from her, Sarah exhaled and moved to step outside.

"Where are you going?" Madison moved to block Sarah's way.

"You are not saying anything, and I don't want to engage into a staring contest with you."

Madison was enraged with Sarah's smug behavior. How dare she ignore her!

"You are full of yourself!", Madison almost screamed.

Sarah stifled a laugh. "It would be strange if I'm full of something else."

Madison sneered. "You… you think you are special, don't you? Why? Just because he is your date? Let me tell you, that does not mean anything!"

Sarah looked at Madison and blinked few times. "A date? Are you talking about Aiden? You said that it does not mean anything if he is my date. It seems to me that you are implying that you know something about Aiden, and I don't…"

"I know that I am the girl he will never forget!" Madison proudly declared.

Sarah paused. No matter how stupid Madison is… that statement probably has some weight. "What makes you say so?"

Madison arrogantly lifted her chin. "I am his first! Do you think that a man can forget his first?"

Sarah inhaled more than she intended. She knows that Madison is after Aiden to the point of being irrational, but…"You are saying… that you are his ex?"

A smug smile creeped into Madison's face. She can see that she got Sarah's attention. "Hmph! I am the best he ever had!"

No matter how much Madison's words caused some unknown wounds to open and bleed painfully, Sarah had to find out more. "The first? The best? How do you know that? From where is that confidence coming from?"

Madison was pleased that finally Sarah is shaken up. She has her right where she wanted! And just like Madison suspected, Sarah has no clue who Aiden is and how he is playing with girls… with that knowledge, Madison has no intention of holding back punches, because when Sarah finds out how despicable Aiden is, she will leave him, and then Madison can make her move.

Madison sneered condescendingly. "How do I know that? I know that he seduced and discarded hundreds of girls who worshiped him! Aiden never stayed with any for more than once because he was looking for something that will compare to what I gave him! And he was not able to find it! Because I am the best! You are just one of hundreds! As soon as you spread your legs for him, he will move on, just how he always does! But I know that at the end, he will come back to me!"

Sweaty palm leaning on the other side of the swinging door trembled. Aiden's legs got weak and he took a step back, and another… until he slumped into nearest sofa chair. He wished to hear Sarah say that she does not believe Madison, he wished to hear Sarah push away that wretched blabbermouth and to storm outside with words that Aiden would never be such a lowlife… but Sarah was silent.

'It's over…', thought ran through his mind and he felt all strength seep out of his body. He wished to go inside and tell Sarah not to listen, not to listen to any of it… but what right he has to say that? Aiden held his face in his palms and the only thing that he could identify was… desolation. Sarah is getting out of his grasp and there is absolutely nothing he can do to stop it. 'It's over…' He was sinking deeper with every passing moment, and the pain in his chest made it difficult to breathe.

Inside restroom, Sarah closed her eyes and took a deep breath to calm her raging emotions. She told herself that it does not matter what Aiden did before they met, but now that she is facing this woman… and after she heard those words… Sarah found that it's impossible to ignore the suffocating feeling which is engulfing her. Darkness… darkness is clouding her mind, and she feels the need to break something… someone… anyone… Sarah opened her eyes and looked at Madison who looked back at her mockingly. Based on the way her lips moved, Sarah can tell that Madison is saying something, but she could not hear anything… there was some buzzing noise in her head, blocking all sounds, all her senses fading… that familiar darkness which hid for a long time was taking over.
