“Megan!”
Linda’s sharp voice echoed in the now silent restaurant but to Megan, her voice sounded distant and muffled.
She was now a sweating mess and her pupils dilated further, hollowing her eyes.
Mehan was there but at the same time, it looked like she wasn’t there. Reality blurred in her mind once more as she tried to make sense of what was happening around her.
The air in the entire restaurant turned cold, so cold that Megan could swear that it felt like there were a thousand knives piercing her body.
Her blood tan cold in her very veins as she felt the need to empty her stomach.
Her vision blurred and it was a miracle that she was still abel to stay on her feet till now.
Her heart beat slowed but were violent against the walls of her chest as she struggled to take in deep breaths of air.
She could feel it all.
The staring
The judging but most of all, she could hear the whispers.
This was hardly the reaction that he had expected from the gusts in attendance.
They were all looking at her with sad looks on their faces and even though Megan was in this state, the reaction came to her in an instant.
The wave of hatred that washed over her body was so intense that Megan began to feel her body heat up.
She felt cold but that did not stop the beads of wear gathering on her forehead and on the small of her back.
“Megan please…..you’re not well.” Go with Linda, she will make sure that you are well taken care of.”
Cleo said worriedly, holding a hand over her chest.
The reaction came in an instant.
Megan snapped her head up, her eyes cold and hard as she glared right at Cleo
“I AM NOT CRAZY!!”
She shouted, causing the whispers to then quiet.
All eyes were on her again and for a brief moment, Megan was happy that the attention was now finally back on her.
Her chest heaved rapidly as her throat burned. Her entire body visibly shivered and she did not dare raise her head up, neither did she move even as much as a muscle.
One thing that Megan was sure about was that she wanted to get out of this place big now, she also knew that she was in too deep.
All she wanted was for the world to finally see juts how much of a fraud Cleo Ainsley really was.
Cleo stared down at her, her demeanor still calm and poised and there was not even a hit out of place.
Megan fisted her hands tightly till she could feel a sharp sting on her palms.
This is what she had always hated about Cleo.
Even in this very moment, even when she could lose everything. she was still perfect.
It annoyed Megan,
It fueled her hatred to the point that’s he became numb.
Then her lips twitched, revealing a very disturbing smirk on her face.
"You think you’ve won again right?”
Megan said in a cold time thag was more than enough to send shivers down Cleo’s spine but she just stood there staring down at her like she was nothing.
Those darn eyes
Megan thought to herself as she felt her anger rise even more.
Why is it that she gets to have everything?!
She was even born with a silver spoon.
How is that fair?!
She even now uses my sweat to shine without giving me any credit??
These were the thoughts that ran through Cleo’s mind as she continued to stare at Cleo.
“Megan please, you’ve done enough.”
Linda spoke from behind her, trying to make her see some reason.
“SHUP UP YOU BITCH!!”
She snapped, turning her glare to Linda
“Stop pretending. It’s pathetic and stupid at this point.”
“How long are you going to continue to kiss her ass huh?!”
“You will always be in her shadow and you don’t even see it.”
Linda said nothing more and with that, Megan turned her attention back to Cleo.
Cleo flicked her brown curly hair to the side as she took the hand of a handsome man dressed in a clad suit to sit down.
His hair was blonde and his eyes, blue.
He was very handsome and even in this current situation, Mehan could not control the skip of her heart.
Her heart fluttered against her chest wall.
Their hands were still together and this was more than enough for Megan to lose all of her control.
Megan pointed her shaky finger to Cleo, watching as the blonde haired man shifted forward to protect her.
This made Megan’s heart drop to her stomach in despair.
Why is it that this woman always seemed to have everything that she was dreamed about?!
Thus thought ran through her mind as she tried to keep her mind clear but to no avail.
To Megan, after all of this, she would definitely be getting fired from work, to her, she did not think that she had anything to lose whatsoever.
