Chapter 15 Am I Not Worthy Enough For You?

Light

*For the next few days Dew, Priya, and Stella trying to book blind dates for Win. They encouraged Win to go but he refused to go until he gave in to go on a date with a girl named Rose.

 

Later…

 

*Win comes out of the cafe and notices Dew, Priya, and Stella with their faces glued to the cafe window. They notice him and adjust their clothes pretending nothing happened.

 

Dew: So man, how was the date?

 

Win: *shrugs* It was okay I guess.

 

Dew: So do you like Rose?

 

Priya: Tell us about the date!

 

Stella: *nods* Please

 

Win: We just talked and had waffles that’s all.

 

Priya: That’s all? Nothing else?

 

Win: And then she asked for a second date this Friday evening.

 

Dew: That’s great man I’m happy for you! *puts an arm around Win’s shoulder* 

You’re finally going to have a girlfriend, eh?

 

Win: *pushes Dew away* There’s no second date. I said no.

 

Priya: What? What do you mean?

 

Stella: Why? 

 

*Win looks at Stella with a sad look in his eyes trying to hold back his tears as he thinks to himself-

 

Win’s mind: How can I move on when you’re the only girl in my heart?

Why is it so hard to make you my girl?
Am I not worthy enough for you?

 

*Win snaps out of his thoughts and yells-

 

Win: I just don’t want to go out with anyone right now, okay? 

And that’s final! *walks away*

 

*Dew, Priya, and Stella gets flustered and follows after him

 

Dew: P’Win, wait up!

 

Priya: Where are you going? 

 

Later…

 

*Stella agrees to meet up with Bright at a nearby cafe but Bright is running late. She plays with her bubble tea drowning herself in deep thoughts. She sighs deeply.

 

Stella’s mind: Why is it so hard to find a girl for Win to love?

 

*Just then a familiar figure walks in but instead of showing his face, his face is blocked by a bouquet of roses. He clears his throat and sings to her a lovely serenade. After the lovely song, he kneels down and gives her the bouquet. Stella gets touched by it. She softly smiles at him.

 

Stella: What’s this?

 

Bright: A lovely song for a lovely girl.

 

Stella: I don’t know what to say, Bright, I-

 

Bright: You don’t have to say anything. 

I know that something has been bothering you for the past few days and it’s been making you upset but whatever it is I long to see a smile on your face.

And I’ll do anything to keep that smile on your face. 

I love you so much, P’Stella.

 

Stella: I love you too, Bright.

 

*Bright gives her a deep passionate kiss and pulls her into his embrace. She softens and hugs him back. 

 

Stella: You’re really the best boyfriend I could ever ask for. 

Thank you.

 

*Bright takes Stella on a romantic date and she soon forgets about all of her troubles. They hold hands admiring the beautiful scenery in front of them. He looks at her.

 

Bright: So are you feeling better?

 

*Stella nods.

 

Stella: A little, thank you.

It means alot.

 

*Bright plays with her face and turns her frown into a smile making her giggle. Bright softens and smiles.

 

Bright: That’s my girl. 

Please smile for me, babe.

 

Stella: *nods* I’ll try.

 

Bright: That’s my girl. 

 

*He intertwines his hands with hers, pecks her hand and puts it in his pocket. They lean against the railing admiring the stars and the beautiful scenery in front of them together. She leans against his shoulder and he pecks her forehead.

 

Later that night…

 

*After Bright drops her off in front of her house, he heads home. He enters the front door and gets greeted by-

 

Bright’s dad: Where the have you been?

 

Bright: Out that’s what. *takes off his jacket*

 

Bright’s dad: Oh yeah, out doing what?

Are you dating someone?

 

Bright: And why should you care? 

Why do you care about what I’m doing and who I’m with?

 

Bright’s dad: How dare you talk to me that way! *slaps his face*

You will not talk to your father in that disrespectful tone, young man!

 

Bright: Pft… you call yourself my father? How pathetic!

You’re not even qualified to call yourself my father.

After mother passed away, you married another woman!

How is that being a good father and husband?

 

Bright’s dad: Don’t you dare bring your mother into this conversation?

Do you hear me?

 

Bright: And why should I do that?

 

Bright’s dad: How dare you talk back to me like that? 

You ing piece of !! 

 

*Bright’s dad punches him and kicks him. After a thorough beating, Bright’s dad grabs Bright by the hair and pulls out pictures of him and Stella together.

 

Bright’s dad: You think I don’t know what you’re doing when you’re not at home?

I know you’re going out with a girl.

 

Bright: Yeah I’m dating a girl, what are you going to do about it?

 

Bright’s dad: You think you’re qualified enough to love someone?

Especially a girl for that matter!

Because of you, your mother passed away while giving birth to you!

You killed your own mother and now you think you can be happy being with a girl you love?

Well you’re wrong!

You will never be worthy enough to love someone nor be loved by someone.

So don’t you dare think of having a girlfriend!

Because no one will ever love you!

You’re worthless!! 

 

*Bright’s dad slaps and spits at his face before he walks away.

 

Bright’s dad: You ing worthless piece of !

 

*Bright leans against the wall wiping the blood off his lips. As he thinks about what his father said to him tears fall down his face.

 

Bright’s mind: He’s right.

I killed my mother.

I’m nothing but a failure and I always will be.

I don’t deserve to love someone nor to be loved by someone but-

*grabs onto the picture of him and Stella and tears fall down his face*

She’s the reason why I want to love and why I want to be loved but-

She deserves a better guy than me.

Am I possibly-

Am I not worthy enough for you?

*clutches the picture to his chest as tears pour down his face*
