Day Sixty-Two…
~~*****~~
Nathan could no longer wait outside so he decided to destroy the doorknob so that he could sneak into the house. Jane locked the door a while ago, not allowing him to enter the house. Though he finally calmed down, he couldn't stand outside, waiting for them. The situation just made him more curious about what they were doing inside.
Just when he entered the house, he saw how gentle Jane was toward Dave. He became more pissed off after seeing Jane comforting Dave, instead of getting mad at him.
'That guy cheated on her sister! How could she side with him?' Nathan thought to himself, gritting his teeth.
Jane and Dave didn't notice his presence because they were talking seriously. It did not take long before Jane started cleaning Dave's bruises and cuts on his face, applying some ointments.
Nathan couldn't stand still. He rushed in their direction, grabbing Jane's wrist as he pulled her up. Both Dave and Jane looked at him.
"You're hurting her," Dave mumbled. He was about to snatch Jane's hand away from Nathan but Nathan pulled her closer to him.
"I'm not yet done with you," Nathan looked daggers at Dave. His grip on her wrist tightened. Without looking back, Nathan dragged Jane with him, stepping out of the house.
Dave was about to follow them but Jane turned to him, motioning for him to stay. She would deal with Nathan's anger. Besides, she didn't want the two men to have another fistfight.
Nathan brought her to his car. He let go of her wrist but he grabbed her shoulders, pushing her on the side of his car.
"What's your problem, Nate?" Jane asked him in a calm tone.
"You! You are my problem!" Nathan yelled in his stern cold voice.
Jane gazed at him with a confused look in her eyes. "Why?" She softly asked him.
"I can't understand your actions! Why are you treating him well despite what he did to your sister? Do you like him?" Nathan confronted Jane, taking his anger out on her.
Jane took a deep sigh before responding to Nathan. "I should be the one saying this to you. I can't understand your actions. Why were you suddenly popping up in every place I went today? Were you following me? Do you like me?"
Jane's last remarks made Nathan speechless. It looked like Jane finally figured out he had been following her since this afternoon. He finally let go of her body as he stepped back. He was caught off guard by this sudden direct confrontation from Jane.
"Are you jealous?" Jane asked him once more.
Nathan automatically frowned upon hearing that. "No! I'm not," He denied it.
Jane hissed at him as she shook her head helplessly. Nathan would never admit he was jealous.
Jane took another deep breath and said, "Are you asking me why I do like Dave so much?" She paused for a moment, her eyes fixed on his face.
"Because he is different from you. At least, he has the guts to care about other people's feelings first, before himself. He was too kind to sacrifice his own happiness just to take responsibility for a woman whom he thought was a victim of his mistake."
"How about you, Nate?" Jane pointed her finger at his chest. "You always think you are the victim. You act impulsively without caring about other people's feelings… about my feelings! You are always hurting me!" Jane lashed out at him.
"I told you I'm Shining Star, your old friend. But you still hate me! I said I like you. We made out! You kissed me back! But why? Why do I feel like I am still being taken for granted by you? Don't you really have feelings for me, Nate? Aside from hatred and resentment?" Jane questioned him, her eyes looking at him intently.
Nathan opened his mouth only to close it again as he didn't know what to say. Jane shook her head in disappointment. She pushed him away and turned around to leave. She walked away without looking back.
She was jealous of her sister. Nathan cared so much about Abigail. He beat Dave out of his anger. He was furious because Abigail was hurt. At that certain moment, she felt like she had no room in Nathan's heart. Only Abigail was occupying all the spaces inside his heart.
Jane had the urge to tell him that she was Abigail whom he fell in love with! But she couldn't! Bam-Bam forbade her from revealing the truth to Nathan because she would die instantly once she told him about the soul swap. She was running out of time and she was getting exhausted.
Now that the relationship between Abigail and Dave was about to crumble, Jane was afraid that Nathan would seize this moment to pursue Abigail and gain her affection. If that happens, then Jane would be back to zero again.
Meanwhile, Nathan's heart clenched as he watched Jane's back. He couldn't understand why he was acting this way. His feelings were very complicated.
After contemplating for a moment, Nathan's feet finally moved, running into her. He chased after her. He managed to catch up, grabbing her arm.
"Where are you going? You should come with me. I followed you because Mr. Kazuki asked me to protect you." Nathan spoke in his calm tone. His anger was gone.
"I'll drive you home," he added.
Jane narrowed her eyes at him and said, "You just want to see my sister, right? Now, you are using me as an excuse to check on her." She yanked her arm away from him, smiling bitterly.
"Just go away, Nate. I don't need your protection. I have my own car. I can drive myself home!"
After saying that, Jane headed to her car which was parked a few meters away from Nathan's car. She opened the door and got inside.
Slam!
She slammed the door so hard and started the car. Jane was also hot-tempered because of the stressful events today. And Nathan was the main cause of her stress.
Nathan could only watch her speeding car fading away from his sight. Nathan couldn't understand why his heart felt so heavy when Jane just left him like that.
