"Hey, Anna, do you really have to make Nathalia play a role as your brother's girlfriend?"
"Josh, don't accuse me of coming up with that ide. That role that Nathalia is playing right now is not my idea, everything that you heard from brother's mouth is all his idea." Both Josh and Zen stared at Anna, they are waiting for to say that she's only joking. Anna stared back at them and said, "You two know me long enough to know that I don't know to joke."
Zen opens his mouth, then closes it, and opens it again. It is as if he is having a hard saying the right words he wants to say. "I know very well that your brother is an astounding and a smart guy, but it's just hard for me and Josh to believe that this is your brother's idea."
Zen and Josh both think that Aaron can never come up with such an idea. In their point of view, Aaron would most likely just expose all of Ilana's lies and everything is done. If Anna said that it was her idea to make, then Zen and Josh would believe her right away.
"This whole set up is more like your style, not your brother."
"Believe me, I was also surprised when my brother suggested his idea." On their way home last night, her brother suddenly brought up an idea to deal with Ilana. Her brother who likes to eliminate people like Ilana right away suggested something out of his character.
"Did you asked what his reason to have such a plan in his mind?" Josh asked curiously. Nothing is more intriguing than wanting to know what made Aaron Coleman come up with such a plan.
"Of course! And his answer surprised me more than this plan." When she asked him what is his reason, Anna almost jumped in excitement. She stared at the two handsome men in front of her and a playful smile appeared on her face, "He said that wants to have more alone time with Nathalia, and since we always hang around together, he could have that alone time that he wanted."
"Wait. Are you being serious? Did he really say that?" It is clear in Zen's tone that he is doubting what she's telling them. Though she can't blame him for doubting her, even she, herself, is still doubting what she heard last night.
"If you are saying the truth, then does that mean that it is confirmed that your brother has feelings for Nathalia?" If that is the case, then Josh will be willing to help his childhood friend and Aaron to be officially together. As long as that could make them happy, he will do it. He will waste his precious time just for them.
"Truthfully, I would like to think that way, but I don't want to assume that is the case." What her brother just said to her last night could really make a person misunderstand his words. Anna would prefer it if her brother just says it.
"I understand." Zen started. "Assuming things could really hurt someone's personal feeling." Although he has not personally experienced it, he does know someone who does. And just by watching that someone getting hurt emotionally because of its misunderstanding, Zen knows that if Nathalia misunderstands Aaron's approach, it will surely hurt her.
"Well, if that's the case, then you guys should Nathalia right away that she should start to eliminating her feelings for Aaron. After you two boys don't want to see your precious Nathalia getting hurt." Someone from behind them suddenly spoke.
Anna and the other two turned around. The moment they saw the person who just spoke suddenly soured their moods.
"Seriously, Elizabeth? Is this your new hobby now? Eavesdropping on people's conversation?" Anna asked with a hint of disgust on her tone. They are so focused on their conversation that they have not noticed that someone was listening to them.
"Oh, please. I was just passing by when I heard something very interesting from you guys." Up until now, Anna still has no idea what made Elizabeth be the person that she is now. Anna did hear from Josh and Zen that Elizabeth hurt and still want to hurt Nathalia out of jealously.
However, Anna believes that there is more than that. Every time that she sees Elizabeth, she keeps having this feeling that there is more to it, it's not only about Elizabeth's jealousy of Nathalia.
"So after eavesdropping on our conversation, you decided to make Aaron fall for you?" It's obvious on Zen's tone that he is irritated that Elizabeth is at their presence, if he could just send Elizabeth flying at this moment, he will do it. However, they are in public right now, he could do anything to her. Besides, Nathalia also told him to wait because, by tomorrow, Elizabeth will finally get what she deserves.
"I'll be quite honest with you, Zen. That thought did cross my mind." All three of them glared at Elizabeth when they heard that. "But, I'm not stupid. I will not push myself to do that when it's clear as day that Aaron Coleman will never in my way. I'd be dead by now if I dared to push my luck."
"If you are that aware of the danger, then why did you show yourself to Nathalia again? Have you already forgotten uncle Leonardo's warning?" Josh asked. The last time he asked her that same question, she didn't exactly answer him properly.
It's very convenient that she is here in front of him. Before tomorrow comes, he wants Elizabeth to spill everything. He wants her to tell him the whole truth about why she came back.
Elizabeth stared at Josh. 'It seems like he's not gonna stop until I say the truth, huh. How annoying.' Elizabeth inwardly said.
"I have not forgotten the warning your precious Nathalia's father gave to me." Elizabeth still remembers the fear that she felt when she saw Leonardo face to face. The presence that he gave away is too much for her to handle, and truthfully she doesn't want to experience it again, but in order for her to achieve her goal, then she will face it once again. "The real reason why I came to see her is that I want to see her suffer. It's not just because I'm jealous of her, it's also because it pleasures me to see her suffering."
The very first time that she and Nathalia first met, Nathalia was always smiling. She has never seen her cry at least once. As a curious little child, Elizabeth wondered if Nathalia felt any sadness.
One day, Elizabeth watched a movie that made a female character feels really sad because of the betrayal of her friends. At that moment, it twisted Elizabeth's mind and made a plan to get close to Nathalia, and once she is closer to her, she will betray her to see if Nathalia gets sad.
Her scheme worked. It made Nathalia traumatized and really sad. She saw the face that Nathalia showed to her, and that face really made her day.
Ever since she was sent away because of what she did to Nathalia, all Elizabeth could think of is to see that face again. The pained and very sad expression on Nathalia's face. Every time she thinks about it, it sends shivers to her very spine, it excites her.
When she couldn't handle it any longer, she convinced her parents to send her back, and with her luck, she manages to be in the same school with Nathalia.
"You find it pleasuring to see Nathalia suffer? Something is definitely wrong with your brain." Anna felt a wave of uncontrollable anger is rising up inside of her after hearing Elizabeth's reason.
Rebecca and Juan find pleasure on wanting to see her suffer, however, for some reason, Elizabeth is on a very different matter. Rebecca and Juan have a strong reason to want her to suffer, but Elizabeth only wants to see Nathalia fulfill her twisted desire.
The word disgusting is not enough to describe how twisted Elizabeth's mind is.
Both men on Anna's sides moved forward. However, before they could take further steps, she held both of their hands. "You two, control your anger. Remember, Nathalia, said to us that we should let her handle Elizabeth herself." Anna lowered her voice that only Josh and Zen could hear.
"But, Anna!"
"Zen, I know! I have an urge to want to smack her heard of the wall until she bleeds! But I respect Nathalia's decision that's why I'm controlling myself. I do hope that both of you will be able to do that." Anna understands their urge of wanting to kill Elizabeth right at this moment, but because of what Nathalia wants, Anna is holding herself back.
"Fine. But do let me do one thing to her." Without waiting for Anna to say something, Josh shoved Anna's hand away gently, then stride his way in front of Elizabeth.
Before Elizabeth could even react, she felt great pain on her face. Josh slapped her real hard that every one that is near them saw it and gasped.
