***Vincent's POV***
I looked at Elrae through the rear view mirror, as I drove out of their estate. I tightened my grip on the steering wheel and increased my speed.
I abruptly hit the break as I passed by the park nearby. I can hear the screeching of the tires as I drifted to a stop. It's already dark outside. This place is exclusive for the elite so you can only see a few number of cars passing by.
I parked my car on the side of the road. I closed my eyes and slumped back on the driver's seat. Using my right hand, I massaged my temple.
I slowly opened my eyes and positioned my right hand in front of me. I stared at it for a while before mumbling to myself "It's been a while."
I bitterly smiled at my own foolishness. It's been a while since I've touched her hand. That delicate soft small hand of hers. I should be thankful that I can still stay this close to her. Even though I acted like a jerk and gave her a cold treatment, she didn't say anything. She might act indifferent in front of me but I know her too well. I know that she is uncomfortable with me.
This is what I wanted. For her to not like me, for her to hate me but why do I feel sad? Why do I feel heartache every time I see her fake a smile at me? I should be glad, I should be relieved but I feel nothing near happiness as I see our close relationship drift apart.
I closed my hands into a fist. Clenching them tightly, I comforted myself by saying "It's for her own good."
I can clearly remember the events earlier. I was in a 5 star restaurant having dinner with Alyssa when I received a text message from the school council president. Kyle Yu is a good friend of mine. We have been classmates since elementary until today. He is a very reliable person that is why many students voted for him as the student council president.
Thegoodlooking kyle: Hey... Elrae alert...
I creased my brow after reading his text. "What's wrong?" I heard Alyssa ask. I looked up and saw her sipping her wine while looking at me suspiciously.
I slowly stood up from my chair and said "I have to go."
"What?" she said in a devastated tone of voice.
"Order as much as you like, I will take care of the bill." I placed a red medium size box in front of her and said "This is my gift. Happy birthday." I turned around ready to leave when she suddenly laughed hysterically.
I turned around and saw her holding the expensive set of jewelry I gave to her. She moved her head to look at me seductively. "Thanks for the gift, but why the rush? Stay a bit longer. It's your girlfriend's birthday."
I raised my brow at her. I then turned around to walk towards the door. I was already by the door, holding the door knob when I heard Alyssa's cold voice.
"It's her again, right? It's Elrae again?" she said with indignation in her voice.
I didn't answer her, I turned the door knob and opened the door. I heard loud shattering sound behind me as the plates and glasses crashed on the exquisite tiled floor.
I didn't look back, I stepped outside the room and closed the door behind me. I called for a waiter to clean up the mess inside the room later and told him that I will pay for all the damages. The waiter slightly bowed and said that he understood.
I strode out of the hotel and went inside my car. I dialed Kyle's mobile number. When he picked up my call, I immediately said to him "Tell me the details."
Kyle chuckled on the other line and said "Lover boy."

A/N: Hi! This is Ava!
What do you think?? What do you think??
I just wanna tell you pretty ladies and handsome gentlemen that everything that is happening in the story is not decided on a whim. I already thought of this flow of events as I started this novel. So no matter what speculations you have or which ships you build it will not affect the original flow of the story.
Love lots ^.^
