HIS TRUE BEAUTY

I stared at Bruno, his fingers were shaking nervously, as he pretended to continue with his typing.

I bite my lower lip fighting back my tears.

“There was a sex clip…. but I swear that wasn’t me”I broke down in tears.

Surprisingly Jessi cried too but silently.

“Oh please what now, crying won’t solve anything Beauty, those tears are so fake as long as what I saw in that clip was real, I need you tell me why you did it, my whole family hates you for it even Granny, I stood for you against them… but…”

“And now? Are you going to join them and believe that clip?”Jessi snapped at him.

He didn’t say a word.

“Bruno you can’t do this to her, look at her please, she is innocent”Jessi pleaded.

I laughed sadly.

“Oh I see, Beauty it’s now five men, whom I love so much, I guess I’m just so unfortunate, you were different Bruno,(sobs)you are different, because I never had this feeling before, you made me believe so much In Love that I forget how I actually look like. I’ve always known you deserve someone better, I should have expected this anyway, it’s like a tradition to me..”I smiled.NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.

“Bea please listen to me first, don’t let it get to your heart, you can still sort things out”Jessi said in-between sobs.

“No Jessi… it’s fine don’t worry about me”I smiled at her as tears continued rolling down my cheeks.

I turned to Bruno.

“I guess this isn’t mine anymore”I pulled the diamond ring on my finger and gave it to him.

He refused to take it.

I could see he was shaking, holding back his emotions, it was good to see he was able to fight his feelings for me, I guess he doesn’t love me as much anymore.

“Come on, you are not the villain, this time I blame myself, take it Bruno, if I was in your shoes I would react the same way”.

I said to him, but he didn’t make an attempt to look up or even take the ring back.

I dropped the ring on the table and walked out of the room, heading out of the company as fast as I could, my palm covering my mouth.

Jessi called out at me but I ignored her.

**BRUNO’S POV*”

“You have to call her back and apologise, it was my fault not hers”.

Jessi said in tears.

“What nonsense are you saying?”I asked her with my eyes wet.

“You have to go after her,”she snapped.

I tried to control myself from breaking apart staring at the ring on top of my table.

In as much as I pretended to be strong and unbothered, I love Beauty so much, even hearing her voice today I had to resist the urge and feeling to hug her tightly and cry with her, but the weight of pressure was too heavy , both from my mind full of the memory of that clip and from my family. It was obvious it’s true.

“I only wanted her to tell me why she did it, and let me know her reasons for breaking my heart this way”I said to Jessi.

Jessi broke down into loud tears.

“That’s because she doesn’t even know anything! She was completely innocent, I tell you!”she yelled at me.

“What are you saying? Did you watch the sex clip of her and my father?”I asked annoyingly.

“I don’t have to, it was made right in my presence!”she snapped back.

My eyes widened in shock.

“Is that a joke, what the f**k you mean by that ?”

I said angrily.

My heart racing nervously.
