*Knock knock*I was just resting in my brother’s car near the airport waiting for Jessica when someone knocked on the window. My brother rolled the window down and I realized it was Toby. “Tiff… Can we talk?” I frowned but nodded as I got down the car with my luggage and walked towards somewhere quiet.
“Tiffany. I know you’re stressed with your work. It’s not that I don’t. But I too am stressed over my own work. I know you’re a celebrity and you’re loaded with schedules. But not being a celebrity doesn’t mean that I’m gonna have a whole lot of time to myself. I’m afterall the COO in my firm. I have many things on hand too. Having problems with your friends doesn’t mean that you can just always be in a bad mood when you’re out. It stresses me out even more and I really don’t know what to do.” There he go again talking that .
Tiffany: “COO, COO, and still COO. Yeah, I know you’re the COO of your firm. Yes I have problems with my friends and it kills my mood for anything and everything else. I thought you’re the closest person I have and I can just be myself in front of you.”
Toby: Look, you’re just showing me your attitude the whole while. How is that being yourself in front of me?
Tiffany: And I’m telling you that I really just wanna stop smiling to the world and be myself and just be all emotional. And you can’t even understand that?
Toby: Honestly, what am I to you? I’m not your emotional punching bag Tiffany.
Tiffany: What? Emotional punching bag? This is all you’re feeling? After about 3 years? What the hell have we been doing all this while? What have I done for you and our relationship? This is all you can say? Emotional punching bag?
Toby: Ok look, I’m not try’na to argue more with you…
Tiffany: You’ve already said enough. You had enough of me and our relationship, isn’t it?
Toby: No. That’s not what I mean.
Tiffany: That’s totally what you mean. Being with me is so difficult and it’s killing you. That’s what you’re try’na say right?
Toby: Tiff. You needa calm down. I’ve been tired recently, and I won’t deny that our relationship isn’t helping. But I…
Tiffany: So I’m right. You’re tired of our relationship.
Toby: No Tiffany I…
Tiffany: After all the things you said.
Toby: I said that’s not what I mean. I just really hope all these can stop.
Tiffany: Stop? And now you’re breaking up with me?
Toby: What? No! I just mean…
Tears were already welling up in my eyes.
Toby: No wait Tiffany you needa hear me out.
No… I wasn’t going to hear him break up with me a second time. No… I didn’t wanna hear any more.
“I’ll respect your decision. I’ve a plane to catch. I’m going.” I took my luggage and walked into the airport hastily.
[Toby’s point of view]
“I’ll respect your decision. I’ve a plane to catch. I’m going.” I looked at Tiffany’s back in ultimate disbelief as she walked into the airport. When did I ever say I was gonna break up with her? My blood was literally boiling. Leo got down the car and walked towards me. “Hey man. Did something happen?”
