Chapter 990: The Worst Human

Raelle stared at the tv screen blankly before she replied, "No. Some things didn't go the way I wanted. The first time it went out of my hands was when you suddenly popped up in front of me and refused to leave. That disturbed my life and brought some waves into the calm and peaceful ocean of my life. The second time it happened was when I met Xian. He smiled so beautifully that I forgot what I was supposed to do."         

    

Hyson laughed out loud when he heard that. "Xian Ge's smile held you captive. Tsk. Tsk. Tsk. Who knew you're so easy to catch, Ellie."     

"As if."     

Hyson continued to laugh happily. "I'm very interested in knowing though. What prompted you to get on your knee?"     

"We went shopping then we watched a movie. While watching the movie, I realized that the man who sat with me, I wanted him. I wanted him all to myself and I wanted to tell this to the whole world that he belonged to me as well."     

"Here I thought only Xian Ge was the whipped type," he chuckled. "You're no better, bestie." He paused as his expression changed and he asked, "Ellie, what kind of movie were you guys watching though?"     

"Oh, it was a romantic comedy he picked," she replied and paused for a second.     

Hyson gritted his teeth and screamed making Raelle almost flinch back. It was good that she had the phone on speaker and didn't place it against her ear. He'd really destroy her eardrum otherwise.     

"You! You! You!" That was all he could say. He wanted to curse but damn, he couldn't curse at her! He really couldn't. First, he didn't like cursing. Second, that was his best friend. He could never curse at her. But he was truly mad right now. "Traitor!"      

"You can't call me a traitor," said Raelle. "I didn't betray you."     

"Yes, you did!" he shouted. "I've been begging you for a decade. Begging. Literally begging. What did I ask for? Yes, let's go and watch a movie that's not horror. I didn't even ask to watch a romance drama. I was fine with sci-fi, action, thriller, or whatever! Anything that's not horror! I was okay with that! But no! Raelle Xiang would never listen. She always had to drag me to watch a horror movie and make me lose my sleep for two nights."     

"Just now, Cloe was making me sound like I was a great human being and now, you're talking as if there is no one worse than me in this world."     

"There isn't!"      

"Billions of people in the world and yet, you still chose this bad person to be your best friend? I  don't think anything is wrong with me but it seems something is wrong with you. Why would you pick such a bad person to be your best friend?"     

"I know what you're doing," he said. "You're trying to just play with words to make me take a turn. But guess what? I'm not that much of a fool. Today, I need an explanation! What's with this biasedness? You can watch a romantic comedy with Xian Ge, but you can't watch even an action movie with me? Why? Why so unfair?"     

"Why are you reacting so much to it? You never reacted before this."     

"Because before today, it was all fair. If you won't watch any other movie apart from a horror one with me, then you won't watch it with anyone else. I felt very balanced knowing this. But you have disrupted the balance this time, young lady! It's you who says that balance is very necessary for life. How can you go and disrupt this balance on your own?"     

"It had never been balanced," said Raelle. "Are you forgetting? You're the only person I'd accompany to a cinema to watch a movie. Only you. How can I watch any other genre of the movie with others when the only movie partner I have had is you?" Hyson suddenly lost words. Because that was also true. "This time, Xian wanted to watch a movie and I just accompanied him. It's not that I wanted to watch that movie or that I was interested. I just wanted to do what he wanted to do. And I also wanted to know how it felt to watch a movie with him."     

As if he forgot his grievance for a moment, he asked, "How did it feel?"     

"I realized that my husband looked a lot more attractive than the movie being played on the big screen," replied Raelle very honestly.     

"Blergh!" Hyson made the sound of vomiting. He really couldn't take it for a moment. "I momentarily lost focus. Forget it. Get back on track. Whatever your reason, it won't change the fact that you betrayed me. You can try watching a romantic comedy with Xian Ge but you won't try it with me."     

"You want to watch a romantic comedy with me?"     

"No! I want to watch a movie that's not horror."     

"Oh," was the only response he got making him grind his teeth in frustration.     

Both of them fell silent for a long time but neither hung up the phone.     

After a prolonged silence, Raelle spoke up, "Do you know why I always take you to watch a horror movies?"         

    

"Why?" he asked. "And don't give me a high sounded reasoning like you're making me confront my fears."     

"I think you know I'm not that great."     

Hyson chuckled but covered his mouth to stop her from listening.     

"It's actually very simple. I always drag you to watch horror movies because that's the only genre you don't want to watch."     

"Huh?"     

"All my life, you've been dragging me to do things I didn't want to do. In the end, you'd still find a way to make me do it. No matter how troublesome it seemed to me. So, I wanted to pay you back. But sadly, my best friend isn't scared to do anything in his life except for watching horror movies because he seems to really believe in ghosts."     

"Ghosts are real!"     

"We are not having this discussion again," said Raelle. "Well, now you know why I only watch horror movies with you."
