“Goodbye, enemy number one.” I give him a two-finger salute.
“At least you still haven’t written me off.”
I glance behind me, taking in his sexy smile. “It’s what you and I have in common. People write us off too fast and never see us coming.”
Leaving Romeo standing in the dark, I go back into the house. I need to know if Alfonso took my sister up on her offer. The idea is torturing me. Anyone but my sister. If he is with her, not only will he successively not have to marry me, but I could never forgive him. Anyone but her.
Alfonso is nowhere to be found, the same as my sister. My gut turns at the prospect. Asking around, I head upstairs to where I was told Katrina is. I open the door to see her with a plastic rope tied around her arm and a needle in her hand.
Rushing toward her, I pull out the needle. My heart is flying out of my chest. Katrina is looking at me with evil in her eyes. Without a doubt, she hates me right now.
“I should thank you for breaking up with Alfonso.” Her pinky wipes the side of her lip. All I can see is her smudged lipstick. Her shirt is down enough to see the top of her bra.
“Why are you such a bitch?”
“I was trying to help,” she scoffs. “If people saw him with me, then no one would expect you to get back together. Now, I’m the bad guy. Not perfect, Gia.” My eyes narrow into hers. “Please, I have zero interest in Alfonso. Now give me back my needle.”
“No. You need help.”
Her eyes can’t dilate any more as she glares at me. “You have two options. Give me the needle, and Alfonso’s secret is safe with me. Or I’ll tell this party why he won’t come upstairs with me, and we both know it has nothing to do with you.”
“You used to be a nice person,” I say with disgust. But deep inside, relief fills me, knowing Alfonso never came up.
“Well, you used to be real. Now all I can see is this shell of a fake life you believe you’re entitled to.”
“You know what? Fuck you.” I drop the needle to the ground. “Someone else can clean up your mess.”
