Choices

Chapter 6 - The First Time

I WOKE UP TO CHECK MY PHONE as I heard the notification. I was holding on to my comforter since I am naked. Drake is hugging me tightly but it’s still cold. I never knew that I would sleep after that wild... never mind.

Anyway, I hate myself for forgetting to turn my phone off. I hate it when I wake up with alarms or ringtones. Why do I often forget to turn my phone into silent mode?

Two notifications were received.

The Accidental Mistress has been updated.

Hello, choice maker! You have another two diamonds to access two new chapters of The Accidental Mistress for free.

“Oh my gosh,” I muttered as I was happily triumphing since there are new chapters. It means that there is another chapter to read, and another day to live! This story never fails to ease my boredom.

I didn’t mind the other notification because I didn’t need a free diamond, duh! I can buy my diamond.

“Hmm…” I noticed that Drake was now waking up because I was moving, so I tried not to move for a while. After that, he started to sleep deeply again.

He sleeps too much and I am glad that I have the power to make him sleep peacefully. We had just finished making love and after that, he slept like a baby while hugging me tightly.

I told him to rest but when he sucked my breast and swept his hands onto my femininity while I was standing, I started to lose my senses and my sanity. He’s just so insatiable.

As long as I wanna play the better choice already, I can’t because I want Drake to sleep more. He’s tired, it’s very obvious. His eyebags are showing.

I put my phone away and hugged Drake tighter.

“I missed you and I love you so much,” I muttered as I cupped his face and gave him a small kiss.

All relationships are imperfect. The longer the relationship, the harder the challenges that you will encounter.

As I looked into his face, I remembered how we first met.

“Just give me my bag, you gangster!” I shouted as I tried to get my bag back.

But this guy is just so tall, I mean, a giant! He keeps running away from me. Is he a thief? My parents chose this school for me because they think that the students here are good, but what am I doing right now? Trying to get my bag from a student thief s***h gangster?

“If you’ll just tell me that I’m not a gangster, I will gladly give it back to you, miss?”

Since he was taller than me and I was wearing doll shoes at that moment, I punched him on his abs and he complained after that.

“That hurts!”

This is so annoying!

“Are you doubting if I am a real woman? How dare you?”

“It’s just that you punch like a guy— aw! Why do you keep on punching me?”

“Just give me my bag already!” I hissed, getting tired now. It’s tiresome to punch someone, especially if that someone doesn’t even care about the punches that you gave. He just keeps on laughing while looking at me. It looks like he’s enjoying this.

“I will give you your bag, okay? Calm down,” he said, calmly. “I just saw this bag in the cafeteria. I didn’t even know it was yours. I was going to surrender this to the lost and found but you suddenly hit me and accused me of being a gangster.”

He explained, and that was the time I noticed that he was Drake Hemmington, the famous basketball player. How can I notice him if he’s wearing a handkerchief on his forehead? He looks like a gangster more than a basketball player.

“Okay,” and as he thought that I would calm down now, I jumped and punched him right in the face before I pulled out my bag.

“Thank you, gangster.”

I got back into reality when Drake moved to hold me tighter. He’s still asleep but his unconscious self still wants to hug me. Ah, I am so lucky with this guy. He just loves me so much.

Drake was not rich. At that time, he was a scholar. He gets a part-time job to feed himself and to pay for his school expenses. I was amazed at him at that time. Me, who always gets what she wants by just getting her parents’ money, will never understand how hard it is to be alone.

Drake was an orphan and after all these years, the only thing that he has is himself. At that time, I promised that I'd always be here for him, for better or for worse. I even fought with my parents just to live with him.

This is what I wanted in the first place.

I don’t wanna get married to someone whom I don’t even know.

I suddenly remembered the story that I was reading on the app. I played it because of my curiosity about what being a mistress feels like. At the time that I was playing it, I realized that some mistresses are also the victims of the situation.

They love someone even if they know that it’s forbidden.

They loved someone they knew that cannot be theirs.

Camilla tries her best not to fall in love with Sam. It was noticeable because that’s how the story goes, regardless of my choices. However, since my choices push her to be in love with Sam, I can say that she’s going to fall in love with him soon.

I don’t know what to feel about it. It was just a game. Why am I overthinking it too much?

But if it happens in real life, what choices should I make?

I think I could never cheat on anybody. Drake is the best guy out there. How can I cheat on him?

I know in myself that I can’t.

And I never will.
