She was pacing her room, trying to think if she should call him or not. The alcohol she had consumed all night was finally wearing off. But the memory of what happened in the ballroom remained quite clearly in her mind.

She held in her hand his number if she decided to push through with her plans. But he was right. She should check his background first before she jumped into this crazy idea of hers.

"Call him." Tyra encouraged herself as she held the phone in her hand. What could go wrong with a date? Many, in truth. 

First, she might discover that she and that strange man would never work. He might look good on the outside, but his attitude was rotten on the inside.

While she paced in her room, contemplating whether to make a deal with him. Another situation was happening in the other building not far from hers.

He waited for her to come home, standing in the lobby, making sure no one would notice him in the corner. It was late, he was tired from the long night, but he wanted to end this right now.

When she finally arrived alone, he followed her to her room and knocked on her door, knowing that she would be on her own. He did not want to cause trouble for her, but he did not want to be part of this game she was playing.

"I'm sorry if I can't come and talk to you at the party." She started explaining to him how she could not blow her cover in front of Nick.

She kept talking but failed to mention his threat to leave her.

It was as if she had forgotten all about it, and all she could care about was her situation.

"Stop it! Cassie." He shouted, tired of listening to her shit. He came here to end it with her but see if there was still room for him to salvage their relationship.

But hearing her talked about herself and her plans, as she disregarded his wishes, only strengthened his resolve to end his relationship with her.

"What?" She asked, confused with his reaction. Then, it finally clicked in her brain his previous threat.

"I told you that I am not doing this with you anymore. I'm sorry, but I decided to end this. I don't think we have any future together." He spoke to her gently, hoping this time she would finally understand that he was serious.

"You can't be serious. But you love me, and I love you. You promise that you will stand by my side no matter what." She could not believe what she was hearing from him.

She understood him the first time he threatened her about leaving. It was not the first time, but she always lured him to stay and help her out. She believed that she could still talk him out of leaving her.

"I am dead serious, Cassie. I can't do this anymore. I think we have reached the point that we are living in two separate ways. I still love you but not enough to support this craziness." He pointed to her and her slutty outfit.

There was no way he could continue a relationship with her. Her wished to avenge what happened to her family changed her so much. He just realized that he was in love with the idea of her, but the girl he loved was long gone.

"Does Dani had anything to do with this? Did you also fall to her charms?" She questioned him as she started to study him.

There must be an explanation for his sudden change of heart. He would not simply fall out of love for her if there was no other woman in his life.

"She had nothing to do with this." He told her as he moved towards the window and looked outside.

He did not need to drag Dani's name in this situation, but in truth, she had everything to do with his realization. She was perfect in every way. It was just a bad break that she was already in love with someone else.

"So, she also managed to twist you in her little fingers," Cassie spoke with so much contempt in her voice that she wanted to strangle the woman that continued to ruin her life.

"She had nothing to do with this. It is my decision. I am leaving you because you are not the same girl I loved before." He tried to appeal to the girl he once knew.

But all he could see now was someone he barely recognized. Cassie was only a shadow of the woman he once loved. Her face was the same, or more of improved compared to before. Her body was something that would always make men had a second look. 

But in her place was the manipulative woman who could only see through her anger. She could not even see reason anymore. Maybe she was already too involved with what Nick had implanted in her mind that she had forgotten that there was more to life than revenge.

"She had poisoned your mind against me." She started crying, knowing that it had worked on him before.

It usually made him rethink his decision and eventually softened up to her. She had to pull all the stunts because she could not give up her plans. She was so close, but she did not want to lose him too.

"I'm sorry, but my decision is final. There is nothing else you can do to change my mind. I only came here to tell you in person. I am leaving, and I am not coming back." He went straight to the point.

He could not keep dragging their situation when he already knew there was no more point in it.

"Please, tell me that you are only making a point. That you are not going through with this." She hugged him from behind.

But from his calm demeanor, she already knew that she had her answer. This time, she had lost him.

"I have to go. I only wish you the best of luck." He finally pulled away from her. 

He left her by the window and walked straight to the door without looking back. He could not look at her and gave her hope.. He also did not see the point of long goodbyes.
