"Excuse me?" I said, "You are asking me how I could move on? Who dumped me? Who got married?"
"You know I wasn't in the right state of mind… I was mad… I was hurt… I didn't even know what I was doing…" He said, "But you were."
I looked at him with disbelief.
He gotta be kidding right now!
"So what was I supposed to do?" I said, "Keep crying and waiting for you to get back to your senses?"
"I wouldn't have minded if it was just a physical… But you're in love with him!" he said.
"Excuse me? You wouldn't have minded that?" I said angrily, "Who are you to mind?"
"I'm shocked you're asking me who I am to question anything! And for your information, that's how it was with Irina… But deep down my heart, it was always you! You're the only way I cared about… You're the only one I truly loved!"
"Should I give you a medal or something for that?" I said incredulously.
"And you?" He continued without answering my questions, "The way you looked at him… It's how you used to look at me! Actually, no! You've never looked at me with such intensity!"
I made a fist… Maybe I should just punch him!
"I can look at him the way I want… I can eat him if I want... I can kiss him, fuck him... I can do whatever I want!" I said.
Yeah I could do all that, but I couldn't because he asked me to 'have fun'! Maybe I should go and call him to see the kind of 'fun' I was having right now!
Wait…Why was I digressing from the topic?
"I'm shocked, Bella! Shocked!" He said.
"About what?" I said, "That I dared to move on?"
"Yes… That you moved on when I needed you the most…" He said, "Do you know how lonely I was? Do you know how tough it had been on me?"
It was a mistake to meet him here…
I should have called him at home…
I could have smacked him or something!
"I know I wasn't fair to you… I accept that! I've realized my mistakes! And I'm ready to apologize until you forgive me… But it seems you're not even willing to give me a chance! You just moved on! Just like that… If we need to make this right, I'll need some kind of efforts from your side!"
Maybe it's okay to hit him with something in public also?
"I don't want to give you another chance!" I said.
"Bella…" he sighed, "How many times did we break up before? And how many times did we kiss and make up?"
"I'm regretting every single one of them right now… I'm regretting every single sleepless night I spent crying after you…" I said.
"Bella... Why are you doing this? And for whom? That guy doesn't seem to give a shit about you!" He said.
"That's none of your business!" I snapped.
"What is so special about him? Money? Power? CEO and all?" He said, "Since when have you become so desperate to go after such things? I'm shocked! You've changed so much! Have I hurt you so much that you started thinking about all these things? I know people can act strangely when they are hurt..."
What the hell was he going on about?
"Edward… Just shut up!" I said.
"Bella..." he said, "I know you're mad at me, but you need to follow your heart! You know we are meant to be together!"
"Shut up!" I said.
"Okay, tell me something… Why did you ask me to meet here?" He smirked, "Because you knew what would have happened if you were alone with me… Why do you keep asking me not to touch you? That's the impact I have on you! Nobody is going to make you feel like that… Do you still remember how you got turned on yesterday with my one touch? C'mon… Give us a chance! We are meant to be!"
That's it.
I could no longer take this further…
I got up and stormed off from there!
But maybe I should have punched him before that!
