Chapter 162 - Tantrums And Fears
Chapter 162 - Tantrums And Fears
Simione didn't have someone to pick her up when she decided to go back to the Tang's mansion. Not that Madam Silicia did not arrange someone for her, it was just that she told the Madam she was to go home alone. So she took a service car and had the driver drop him off in the main entrance of the subdivision. After the drop off, she decided to just walk toward the mansion barefoot. It was still afternoon then and she wanted to enjoy the late autumn breeze.
Right then she tried to brush off any memory of Lyndon and whatever she saw the day she caught him cheating and focused on what she should do next in her life. She was to graduate already and since there was marriage waiting for her, she planned to get an employment somewhere with a good decent salary so she can support herself. Now that she was sure she won't be part of Lyndon's future anymore, she should find her own future alone. Perhaps she'll be okay someday.
When Simione reached the mansion's gate, she was immediately surprised to see Lyndon's woman waiting for her. She was riding a black tinted, purposely waiting for her and Simione then understood she must have come for her.
Lyndon's woman and her knew each other a lot. How could they not when they were always at each other's odd. Besides, the other woman was quite famous in their city as everyone adores her. She was Feather Han, a world renown ballerina whom everyone in Devon City loves. Perhaps because of this popularity of hers made her too overconfident about herself, not remembering the very fact that in reality she was no match for her.
"I don't know you could be shameless," The woman rolled the window of her car to give Simione a thorough look before she herself mounted her car. "After what happened, you dare still show come home here in the Tangs,"
"This is my home," Simion dismissed her off. She wanted to just walk past her and ignore her but her expression tells her how angry she was. Was she mad because Lyndon took a while to return to Devon City? She could only sigh helplessly at it.
"Home? Your home?" The woman shoots daggers at her. It was rather such a shame Lyndon was not there to witness her pretty good attitude that perhaps he had never seen before, You knew yourself this isn't your home. Perhaps you had forgotten you are an orphan and that you had no home to speak of,"
"Out of all the people in this city, you among others knew well what you are saying is true," Simione stopped her tracks and chose to pissed Feather off just this time. The girl had always been harsh to her ever before and since Simione wasn't in the good mood right then, she faced her head on. "I do have a home but such a place was full of shameless leeches I could do nothing bu just leave,"
"Leeches? Are you describing yourself?" Feather replied, more annoyed now that Simione was retorting back. "You are the one who had been leeching off the Tangs until now and even when Lyndon had already thrown you out, you still come home shamelessly,"
"I don't remember Lyndon throwing me up," Simione chose to hit back at her this time with something that she knew would make Feather Han go more angry and berserk. "In fact, he did chased me in the mountains and begged for the whole duration of his vacation for me to come home,"
Her words immediately drew a complex expression in the ballerina's eyes that Simione couldn't help but laugh at it. "You should see how ugly your face went,"
"Lyndon was just kind. He knew you had no place to stay and so he still allowed you to come home,"
"That is not what he told me," Simione challenged her. "Do you wish to hear what he told me? Do you wish to hear the words he told me when he was begging for my forgiveness?"
"You are lying! Lyndon loves me! He chose me already. You are just making up things,"
"Then why do you look so upset?" Simione spat at her face. "Oh let me guess. The directress told me you had kept calling everyday while Lyndon was in the orphanage because he refused to come home to be with you. I assume to you set up many schemes to make him come back but he didn't and when he did come back, he left without appeasing your tantrums so here you are, trying to push your frustrations on me,"
Feather was silenced with Simione's words because it was all true. When Lyndon chased Simione to Comis village, he refused to come back without the girl and ended up spending his entire vacation in the mountains while she desperately waited for him. Finally he came back after two weeks but he only stepped in Devon City to pack up his things and immediately left to catch up on his flight. He didn't even bother to call her.
"hmmm…I wonder how it felt," Seeing that Feather was left with no words to say but just her misery splattered all over her face, she pushed more insults at her. Afterall, she was the reason why she and Lyndon broke up, she must share with the pain of her shamelessness. "Imagine…being so desperate…the famous Feather Han, going to low to seduce a man whom she knew belong to someone else already…yet the end…he still abandoned you,"
"He didn't abandon me!" Feather was so mad she was ready to pull Simione hair but she had done such previously and ended up hurting herself more than she could ever hurt the girl and so she didn't dare then. Besides, she was a ballerina, she could not risk an injury on her body or she would end up losing her career. "How pathetic can you be that even when you already see how inlove Lyndon was with me, you still choose to cling onto him! Have you an ounce of shame Simione? Lyndon had been taking care of you since you were young and it was because of you that Hans and the Tangs weren't that close anymore as they were before!"
"I didn't ask Lyndon to take care of me,"
"Sure you didn't but he is very kind and considerate. So he took you and our family's had been in great misunderstandings because of this! How long are you going to keep being a burden to him?"
"For Lyndon I wasn't a burden,"
"Of course you are!" Feather shed a tear this time. If Simione thought that her and Lyndon's relationship went smoothly, she was wrong. All this time, both of them struggled to keep their relationship low because their family's weren't on good terms. "He was worried that my father and grandfather would not accept him as my boyfriend because of what happened before!"
Simione knew what Feather was talking about. She was very aware of the Tang's and the Han's misunderstandings because the reason for it was her. The Han's didn't want the Tang's to care for Simone but Lyndon chose not to heed them. He too refused to come home with Simione and so the Tangs were left with no option but to care for the girl, as of course they couldn't let Lyndon live in the streets with the girl.
"Do you understand now how hard this all was for him?" Feather tried to wake up Simione's conscience. She knew very well she had a deep one. The girl just acted up pathetic and strong, she was always like that. However, beyond that strong personality was a soft heart and such would only smoothen more when it comes to Lyndon Tang.
"We had been together for long a time already and yet he cannot tell the world he loves me because he was afraid the past would be a hindrance to our relationship, plus there was you," Feather added, all tears, pressing all fault to Simione even when the latter was the victim in the first place. "Can't you see Simione? Lyndon had been sacrificing a lot for you already! It's time for you to stop being shameless and think of him at once!"
Simone's expression didn't falter, instead, she only raised a brow at the crying Feather, feeling too disgusted. Now the ballerina bitch was changing her strategy, she opted to use her tears now to make her leave the Tangs. Ah! She did plan to leave even when Feather wasn't in the picture yet but seeing how desperate she was to make her leave. Well, hell no. She wouldn't give her the satisfaction.
"Hmmm….As you said, I'm very shameless," Simione just rolled her eyes then. If one could see the two of them, everyone would definitely think Feather was the one that had been wronged where in fact, she was the one who took someone else's man. "So..my answer would be no. Dream on Feather Han but I won't leave Tang's mansion. Afterall, Madam Silicia and grandfather Tang love me so much. Also, just as much as I did enjoy being Lyndon's beloved, I also want to enjoy being his sister. He was after all a very good brother to me,"
"You—ahmmp!"
Simione turned her back to purposely let her long hair hit Feather's face as she turned. The ballerina was caught off guard and shrieked at the surprise pain. When she recovered, she saw the girl entering the mansion's gate already.
"Simione!"
"By the way, Feather Han," Simione halted and turned back to face her. "Since you purposely ruined me and Lyndon, make sure to make him very happy," She gave an eye, something that sent instant shivers in Feather's spine. "If not, then know that I'll come for you to make your life hell,"
Just that and she continued, leaving Feather with her tantrums and fears.
