Kyle found himself completely frozen on the spot.
He makes her cry?
She had been suffering all this time?
Why did she never say anything?
Kyle's emotions were going out of whack at that point.
His heart was bleeding.
It felt like someone had ripped out his still-beating heart in his chest.
Seeing the way she didn't refute him, Hamdan got braver as he continued, "I would never cause you to think that I would ever cheat on you. I would always be contactable. I would never be too busy to talk to you."
Each word that came out of that filthy guy's mouth sliced into Kyle, causing immeasurable pain.
Kyle had known of her insecurities, which was why he always told her he loved her when he called. He would do his best to call her as much as possible, so that she wouldn't feel lonely.
Yet, she still wasn't convinced?
She still had her doubts?
The fact that his 'Hamdan' guy could say all of those things only meant one thing.
She confided in him.
She talked to him about everything.
She sought comfort from him, and not her own boyfriend.
Each realisation stabbed at him.
At the end of the day ... she didn't trust him.
No matter what he did, she didn't trust him at all.
"Hamdan," Sari said, pulling her hand out of his, "Until I settle things with my boyfriend, I can't be with you."
"Does this mean I have a chance?" Hamdan asked, his eyes bright.
Sari didn't answer, but she gave a nod.
That nod was like a bucket of cold water pouring over the already cold Kyle.
For her to say such a thing meant that she was not happy with him. That she was happy with Hamdan.
Kyle found it hard to breathe but yet, he still managed to remain steady.
He did not rush over to Sari and pummel the guy to death. Even though he wanted to, so badly. Instead, he settled for just staring at the guy who had filled the void he had caused.
Hamdan was so happy that he gave a huge grin, which slowly faded when he saw someone staring at him.
At first, he was struck by the fact that there was actually someone who was so brazen and rude to stare at other people.
When his gaze landed on the person who was staring at him, he was flabbergasted.
Even as a guy, he could not deny how good looking the guy in front of him was. In fact, everyone in the cafe was giving him side glances, whispering amongst themselves as they checked him out.
Despite the fact that he wore a cap and dark sunglasses, it didn't hide the chiseled features and fair skin. The slim-fitting 3/4 sleeved shirt hugged his physique well, making one drool over the well-defined muscles underneath.
The shirt was not tucked in, but it seemed to glide over the slim-fitting jeans that showed off his stature even more.
Where did this high-quality male come from?!
And why was he staring at him?
Hamdan doesn't know him - he would certainly remember someone that good looking!
Even though his eyes were covered, Hamdam could tell that it wasn't a friendly gaze. Instead, it was anger and Hamdan had the irrational fear that his life was in danger.
What did he do to offend this guy?
Seeing the guy come closer, Hamdan was ready for a fight.
However, instead of going to him, he stood beside Sari.
Sari turned when she sensed someone beside her. She turned to see who it was when she gasped.
"Kyle?!!"
For a brief micro-second, she was so happy and then, intense guilt hit her.
How long had he been around?
How much did he hear?!
"Kyle, I can explain," Sari said, starting to get up but Kyle just shook his head.
"No, you don't have to," Kyle said, his voice surprisingly steady and did not have an ounce of the killing anger he felt right now.
He looked at Sari, who looked so uncomfortable and was obviously feeling bad that his entire anger dissipated.
How could he remain angry when she felt so bad about it? If he couldn't make her happy, then someone else should.
No matter how much he loved her, he could not force her.
He bit his inner cheek, causing the skin to break and he could taste his own blood in his mouth. He wanted the pain. He wanted to feel it in order to feel something other than the pain of the heart.
Kyle took a deep breath, deciding not to go into Zen mode. That would only make him unfeeling and he wanted to feel every single thing at that moment.
He sighed, looking away to the side and said, "I'm sorry."
Sari was confused, "What for?"
He turned to look back at her, and took off his glasses. Kyle was well aware that some people had been staring at him from the moment he appeared and he didn't care at that moment if he was recognised.
It wasn't as if he was hiding any more. He didn't want to say the next words behind the dark glasses. Behind any sort of disguise, no matter how lame it was.
He looked at Sari sadly, then shook his head, "For making you cry. Feel insecure. Unloved."
Sari's eyes watered as her heart felt the pain, upon seeing the sadness in his eyes. She had never meant to hurt him and this was not the way she wanted him to find out.
"I guess, this was not meant to be," Kyle said, "Be happy."
He put back his glasses and said to Hamdan before leaving, "Take good care of her."
Hamdan was in total shock.
THAT was Sari's boyfriend?!
If he had known from the start, he would not have even pursued Sari.
After all, how could he even compare?
Be it in the looks department, or wealth?
