Tiana sat in her room, watching her sister unpack the bags; she couldn't go back to the mansion because everything she had there was Nicklaus's, she didn't even own a pen in that house and so she left everything behind.

They had bought a lot of things, ranging from clothes, to shoes, to jewelry, to underwear, just name it. She wasn't in the mood to go shopping that morning, but knowing that it would take him out of her mind for a while, she forced herself. And although for a few moments, she forgot the pain, it returned whenever she was quiet.

''Oh Tiana, we didn't buy makeup sets and bags! How could we forget? ''

Gwen's face scrunched up as she realized they had forgotten some items; Tiana sighed; she didn't mind Gwen spending the money. In fact, she was the reason she had gone through this hell for, so if she didn't spend it, who will? But the problem was that she didn't have the strength to go shopping again, it was tedious.

''You can take my card and get anything you want; I won't be going with you. I want to rest. ''

''Oh really? Thank you, you're the best. It's late already, so I'll go tomorrow, okay? ''

Tiana nodded.

Gwen's face lit up excitedly as she thanked her sister.

She knew Tiana would let her get anything she wanted, she had always loved her to a fault.

Gwen grinned as she continued unpacking the clothes, choosing the best ones for herself as usual.



''You have a call, Tiana. '' Gwen said as she stepped into the parlor. Tiana, who was sitting on the couch, turned to look at her; her eyes wide.

She had left her phone in her room, and equally, put off the television so she wouldn't see any news that related to him. She was scared; she didn't want to hear the announcement of his engagement with another woman.

She knew it was inevitable, but she couldn't help feeling hurt again, because she had loved him. She didn't go to social media and didn���t even put on the television, and she planned on staying that way for a week or two, but as Gwen walked into the parlor, she had a gut feeling that he was the one calling her;

''It's him. '' Gwen said, cutting her off from her thoughts. Tiana's heart slammed against his chest rapidly, her lips parting slightly;

What was he calling for?

She swallowed painfully. Has he not hurt her enough, what was he still calling for, to crush the remaining part of her heart?

The phone in Gwen's hand stopped ringing but after a few seconds it started ringing again;

''It's over fifty missed calls, I wanted to ignore it but I just thought I should let you know. ''

She said in a calm tone, watching Tiana quietly.

Tiana's gaze fell to her palms; she couldn't even breathe right. Why was he calling her?

Did he want to drag her back to his house, so he could lock her up over again?

Maybe he wanted to punish her for hurting his pride. 

Tiana chuckled painfully. At least she finally irked him, even though it was nothing, it relieved a little of her pain.

''Tiana, you have a message. ''

Gwen said when the phone vibrated on her hand.

Tiana's gaze lifted to the phone on Gwen's hands and she swallowed; her heart beating faster. She took in a sharp breath, before extending her hand and taking the phone from Gwen.

''Beautiful, I'm outside your house, please I need to see you.''

Beautiful…

Tiana's eyes stared at the ten letter word that always made her heart flutter and her heart squeezed with pain, but even when it hurt so much she couldn't take her eyes off the word. His acting was top-notch to have made her feel so special.

Tiana bit her lower lip as resentment washed through her.

How could he even use that word on her again? Ha! Maybe he didn't even know her name, right; she couldn't even remember the last time he called her by her name. It seems she was really beautiful.

His beautiful prey.

A thunder strike from the clouds outside made her eyes look towards the window. It wasn't very rainy in June, it seemed even the clouds pitied her now.

Tiana dropped her phone by her side and lay back down on the couch, shutting out her thoughts. Gwen creased her brows as she watched her. She had seen Nicklaus's message earlier, but it seems Tiana wasn't going to meet him.

Her eyes looked towards the window when she heard the pitter-patter of the rain drops on the ceiling.

Was she really not going to see him?

Gwen walked closer to the couch and sat down beside her, watching her blank face as though trying to read her thoughts;

''Can you hear him out? Maybe he has his reasons. ''

She said in a whisper and Tiana's body stiffened.

''Gwen… don't make it harder than it already is. ''

Tiana spoke through her teeth; her voice carried a hint of irritation. She didn't want to transfer her aggression to Gwen, but if she didn't mind her words, she was really going to. Gwen was quiet for a moment before she spoke again;

''You need to see him, not for him but for yourself. If you don't see him, you'll never know why he had come, and you'll never have an answer to your questions. He's outside waiting for you, all you need to do is go out there, and ask him all the questions eating you up, although you might know the answer, hearing it from him would help you move on. ''

Gwen explained; placing her hand on her sister's arm.

Tiana was silent, not saying a word.

Gwen was right; if he wanted to see her, then she should hear him out. The worst had already happened, if he came to see her, then he must have a reason. And she needed answers too. She needed to look him in the eye and hear him say that he had just used her all along. Hear him say that she was just a toy and had meant nothing to him. If he said that to her, then she would hate him with everything in her being and it wouldn't be so hard getting over him.
