The next day when I woke up there was a parcel for me, and when I opened it ,I found an invitation card for the birthday party of Lilian Clerk, the youngest daughter of Brent Clerk one of the most famous music producers on 26th October, it was 19 today. She was turning 25 this year and hence the reason behind invitation. But the most shocking thing was Kai's name written beside my name in the invitation card. As soon as I saw this I called Kai and he said he too got a card with my name behind his which would mean oh one thing, me and Kai were invited together in the party. I am damn sure it was a publicity stunt to bring attention to the party, that's how the industry work, they just need attention no matter if it's positive or negative. I got into the shower when the doorbell rang, I guess Rosé opened the door as I heard her talking so I decided to join in. I walked into the living room and found Mark and Kai sitting on the couch.
" hey guys what's up? " I asked
" well good morning to u too beautiful " Mark replied as he got up and hugged me, from the corner of my eyes I saw Kai frowning and looking at us, Mark broke apart
" u smell like chocolate " he commented
" oh yeah? " I replied
" yeah, and u know I love chocolate " he replied
" so what? U wanna taste me " I replied with a laugh
" only if u want me too " he said and that was when Kai decided to interrupt us
" umm Anne, can we go to ur room, I have something to talk about? " Kai said
" yeah sure, let's go " I gestured for him to go in first and then I walked behind him, but not before seeing Rosé and Mark giving me a curious look

" so what do u wanted to talk about? " I asked him taking the bean bag to sit as he sat on the bed
" ah actually, u know we are invited together to Mr Clerk's daughter's birthday part ".he said a bit hesitant
" and? " God I don't have a good feeling about it
" well I was wondering if,.. Ummm .. If I could take.. Take Wincy as my.. U know.. Date? " he said and damn my titanic heart sank deep down into the Pacific. I tried to compose my self and put up an expression as unaffected as possible
" c-cool, thats.. Not a problem.. At.. At all " I said trying to fight my tears
" u sure?" he asked
" don't make me change my mind Kai " Shit! That came out a lot rude then I wanted to
" I mean yeah, I don't mind at all " I said closing my eyes
" Anne " Kai came and knelt down in front of me. Oh Kai, plz don't do this things, u don't know how much more complicated u r making it for .
" I know that, these past few days, u and Wincy,u guys ars not on best term, but believe me, she.. She's going through a lot, and Alice.. She is her bestfriend , she just couldn't go against her " that's it I lost all my shits, to be honest it hurt me, a hole fucking lot that Kai was taking her side, but before making a judgement he should have heard both side stories and that's what made me do crazy bcz I am going through a lot without anyone knowing. It was definitely not easy to see ur first and present love hitting on ur cousin, it was definitely not easy to see ur cousin and ur love having feeling for each other while u have to play cupid. It was definitely a very difficult situation to go through. And here he talking about her going through a lot.
" leave Kai " I said as I got up and closed my eyes tight so that the tears didn't slip out
" Anne "
" WHICH PART OF LEAVE CAN U FUCKING NOT UNDERSTAND KAI MILLER !?"
" Anne listen " but I cut him off
" no u listen Kai!! Tell me how would u feel if ur Bitch of a cousin would bully you? tell me how would u feel if u r let down everyone u r with them? tell me how would u feel if u r called names like shut, who're and what not? tell me how would u feel of ur cousin tried to feed lies to ur boyfriend so that he would break up with me? Tell me God dammit!! " I said out frustrated
" u can't just call ur own cousin Bitch!" that's all!? Out of all the things I said he head only me calling her a Bitch. Lord kill me, why I do I even have feeling for him, why did I always fall for the wrong person?! Why?! Tears spill out of my eyes as I opened it and found Kai staring at me. I'm sorry if I am overreacting but I can't just help it. I am a human too, so I did the most calm thing. I marched towards him, took hold of his T-shirt's collar and dragged him out of my room and if it wouldn't for the wall his 6 feet figure would land on his butt.
" I want u to go to the party with Wincy, and plz don't fucking bother me " with this I closed my door and broke down leaning into it. It was much more difficult then I thought it would be, that man had my heart and he's breaking it into tiny pieces without even knowing it. And I am afraid maybe he will break it so bad that I can not repair it anymore. I hate to get over it as soon as possible, if not I will left with nothing but a broken heart while they will end up with a cute love story. I don't want to end up that was, and I will do everything in me to make that happen. But the most important question was, I have loved that guy for almost 7 years now, would it be possible for me to get over my feelings for him? It is said that first love will always hold a special place, but do I really want my first love to hold a special place in my hear, even after knowing that he has feeling for my cousin. I don't have any answer to all these questions but deep down somewhere in my hear is knew, reading feeling for Kai Miller would be a very difficult thing for me. And being around him would be more difficult then that.

I was thinking about this when suddenly there was a knock on my door I opened it to reveal Mark standing there with all his glory
" Hey " he said with a smile
" hi " I said with a genuine smile
" so both of u got I to a fight I guess " he said referring to Kai
" kinda, but come in first " I said
" so what was it about ?" he asked me
" he was taking side of Wincy even after knowing she's wrong " I said as he stood near me and slowly put his hands around my cheeks, his hands were cold but somehow his hands gave a warm feeling to me. I looked at his eyes and found him doing the same
" I'm so sorry " he said looking at me
" no, don't be it's not ur fault " I said with a smile
" he told me he wanted to come here for asking u so that he can take Wincy as his date, did he ask u? " he said stepping back as I loose the warmth of his hands
" Y-yeah he said, and I told him he could. But how do u know " I asked him
" I am hid bestfriend honey, he tells everything to me first " he said with a DUH tone , should have known b
" so whom are u going with to the party?" he asked
" alone I guess, can't offend The Clerks by rejecting their invitation, I can explain the situation to him later, on top of that his daughter and me are good friends and I am in his good list too, can't just ruin that " I said with a smile
" perfect ! So .. do. u. mind being my date for the party? " he asked making me dumbfound
" huh? " I asked for confirmation
" party, be my date Anne Sinclair , will u? " he asked
" ah, yeah sure, why not " I said and a big grin formed on his face
" thanks, I will pick u up then on 26, and by the way wear red " he said as I gave out a soft laughed
" sure, well see u then " I said
" definately, but I will take my leave now. The excuse of a bestfriend of mine is wait in ur drawing room " he said as he lightly pecked my left cheek and walked out. What's with Mark and him pecking my cheeks. I smiled to myself.
