Chapter 26
Masquerade
She caught his eye from across the room at the gala. He was there, but he brought an .
Bora Hwang.
Tiffany had a deadly flame in her eye at the moment. He had the nerve to bring Bora Hwang to a White House function. She was ready to kill him.
But she calmly told herself in her mind that this chapter was over, and that Yul would always be in her heart, no matter HOW dumb he was acting.
Though this came close to pushing him out of her heart. She couldn’t believe it. She still would love him after he did THIS?
She felt tears in her heart, but wouldn’t let them come to her eyes.
It would be humiliating. Not that it wasn’t humiliating enough.
Bora Hwang.
Love is strength, yeah right.
She wanted to just give up and become herself again, the late Hwang that wandered around , distinct from everyone else. She wanted to be alone and the Ice Queen again. But Yul just wouldn’t let that happen, not would he?
She felt her heart, and life, falling out of her grasp and to the floor.
She didn’t want to see this.
Everything was in tailspin now, all because of one man, and he had to be the one man she’d spent her life building her heart and mind against. She knew that he would eventually find someone else, but why did it have to be soon, and why did it have to be Bora? She wanted to leave. She couldn’t breathe, and she wanted to think by herself.
“Would you like to dance?”
“Yes, sir, I’d love to,” she said to the perfect stranger.
It was killing him inside. He only brought Bora to make her feel jealous, and only Tiffany knew if he and succeeded. Now she was dancing with her fifteenth partner that evening, and he desperately wanted to go and rip that man from his princess.
He hated this waiting. He had to do something.
Tiffany sprawled out on her bed, staring at the ceiling, trying to sleep, but her eyes were reluctant. Her pillow was wet, for countless tears, as she tried, once more, not to think of him… She sat up, and, depressed, she the light, and tried to read a romance to novel to cheer her up. However, the story was too depressing for her…it told of two childhood enemies, who met later, at a masquerade, and fell in love, and so on, and they lived happily ever after…happily ever afters never existed.
She the radio as she started to cry again, and she looked, from her place on the bed, out the window, to stare, once again, at the moon.
I am thinking of you
In my sleepless solitude tonight
If it’s wrong to love you
Then my heart just won’t let me be right
‘Cause I’ve drowned in you
And I won’t pull through without you by my side
I’d give my all to have
Just one more night with you
I’d risk my life to feel
Your body next to mine
‘Cause I can’t go on
Living in the memory of our song
I’d give my all for your love tonight
Baby can you feel me
Imagining I’m looking in your eyes
I can see you clearly
Vividly emblazoned in my mind
And yet you’re so far
Like a distant star
I’m wishing on tonight
I’d give my all to have
Just one more night with you
I’d risk my life to feel
Your body next to mine
‘Cause I can’t go on
Living in the memory of our song
I’d give my all for your love tonight
