Chapter 7
The three men just finished their work out when they spotted Braun.
"Look at that asshole. He shows up in the gym like nothing ever happened." Colby said growling, making Jon and Jon turn around to see him straight in the eyes. Braun just smiled at them.
"He makes me sick. Filling up a girl for god knows what he was trying to do and now he seems like it's just another day." Jon said disgusted.
"I should talk to him." Joe finally said and was about to go over to Braun when Colby and Jon stopped him.
"Nah, you shouldn't man. You could get suspended for this. You'll get your revenge sooner or later." Jon said pointing to Braun is disgust.
Joe nodded.
"Yeah you're right, but we should leave now, otherwise- "
"Sure." Colby just said and the men left the gym.
Kayla was almost starving when it was just about noon.
I skipped breakfast I really need to go to the cafeteria, she thought to herself.
She left her office and went straight to the cafeteria.
She looked around but couldn't find any familiar face. She felt awkward standing there on her own. Since Joe was obviously spreading those embarrassing rumors she felt like everyone was judging her although no one cared when she finally entered the cafeteria to grab some lunch.
Again she choose for the table on the window. The place was pretty crowded.
She pulled out her cellphone to check on her messages and answer them. It was quite difficult to talk to her parents and friends back in Germany on the phone since her schedule is so busy plus time lack.
She just finished texting when she felt like somebody was watching her. She looked up as she put her cellphone away and then she saw Joe. Oh joy.
He went straight towards her table.
"Hey Kayla, can I sit with you?"
She just shrugged as Joe sat down across of her.
"You alright?" he asked her concerned.
She just nodded,
"Oh, you lost your voice?" he chuckled.
"No." she simply said.
"Then what's wrong with you?"
"Joe, there is just one thing I can't stand and that's when people say wrong things about me. Lies."
He nodded.
"Yeah me too."
She led out a sigh.
"What game are you playing?"
"Me? Game? What?"
He was confused. When she left his room everyone seemed cool between them and all of a sudden she is so cold to him. He wasn't playing any game at all.
"I've heard the rumors you've spread." she crossed her arms in front of her chest.
"What rumors?" he asked confused.
He didn't say nothing at all!
"Having to do with me leaving your hotel room. In your clothes. Does that ring any bell?"
"Sorry, I still don't get it."
She sighed again. She hoped he'd be at least honest but making her saying it out loud made her only more angry.
"You've told pretty much everyone around here that we've slept with each other."
Joe's eyes grew wild.
"What? Who told you that?"
"It doesn't matter who told-"
"Who. Told. You That?" he interrupted her.
He couldn't stand the fact that she confronted him with this. He sure never told anyone that they've had sex. He's not that type of guy.
"Braun." she almost said in a whisper, shocked by his reaction.
He didn't say nothing at all. She just looked at him not knowing what he would do now.
"So, Braun told you that. The Braun who filed you up yesterday to get into your pants?"
She looked at him with her big hazel eyes. He immediately felt sorry for what he just said. He knew she was 25 and not 10 anymore, but she looked so innocent to him. And he hates Braun even more for playing with her. He never said anything bad about Kayla. Ever. He knew that Braun was playing a game leaving Kayla so confused she doesn't even know who to trust.
"Well, he apologized for what he did. Look, I don't like what he did as well. But since I don't have a lot of friends here, I thought I just give it a try with him. You know, just as a friend."
She knew by Joe's reaction that he Joe never said those things about her, she was sure about that. Well, 50% sure because that would mean Braun lied to her. Andy why should he?
"Kayla, you're really amazing. You could find so many better friends than him.2
She looked him straight in the eyes.
"No, I can't. Because I don't dress like everyone around here and I'm not as skinny as the Divas. I don't use a lot of make up. No one even seem to notice me. So, no I can't find any other friends."
It was almost breaking his heart. Kayla is so sweet and natural but she just couldn't see it. It was killing him.
"That's not true. I've noticed you. Well, you actually bumped into me but I'm sitting here with you, right? You're not invisible. Like I said, it's really refreshing that you don't look like everyone around here," he smiled at her sweetly.
She blushed at his kind words. It's been a while since a man complimented her the way he did. It's been a while since a man have treated her with that much respect even though she was sure she didn't deserve all of this.
"I'm giving you an advice: stay away from Braun. He is nothing but trouble."
Kayla nodded slowly. Maybe he was right. But maybe it was all her fault.
How do you like it?
