C78 Chapter 77
"The taboo is delicious." And then I slowly moved away from him when I looked at his face, he was shocked.
"Don't... don't say that -" I immediately cut him off.
"Whatever you're thinking, you're right." And then I turned my back on him and continued to leave the wash room. When I was about to enter the dining area of the restaurant, my walking slowed down little by little especially when I saw the backs of the people sitting at the table where Mommy and Daddy were sitting earlier.
I don't know what's going on but I can feel my knees shaking, so I slowed down until I stopped walking and was stunned by the people talking in front of me.
Round table is the table where Mommy is. Daddy is still in the middle where he usually sits, Mommy is on my left side just next to Daddy, then another woman almost the same age as Mommy was sitting next to her, then another old man.
Then my empty seat looked like Marga was sitting and the next seat there was a man with his back to where I was standing, my heart beat so fast that it was almost out of my rib cage and I felt like I was going to fall from where I was standing, My knee literally felt like a jelly ace because it was so soft.
It's good that I'm holding on to my door jamb. Until I can't understand what I'm feeling anymore and I want nothing else to happen but to get out of this restaurant. I just want to be alone. I closed my eyes tightly and then took a deep breath and gathered all my strength to leave just in case I was about to walk away from -
"We're back!" Marga shouted with her artistic voice.
He got the attention of the one sitting at my round table together with yours... Kenzo. It's gone, my heart has fallen to the floor, I can no longer feel its rapid beating in my chest, eh. Mommy smiled at us.
Since I was looking at where they were sitting, our eyes immediately met for a few moments and at the same time I stopped breathing just in case Kenzo and I broke our eye to eye contact before Marga's impact was satisfied, he put his arm around me and then pressed his nail on my shoulder. So, you're only that brave when you know my people are around us, like now? Are you cursing? It's like you were crying in the wash room just now, ah!
"What are you doing?!" Annoyed but I asked him in a whisper. He grinned at me and I couldn't do anything as he dragged me to where Mommy was sitting. He just removed his hand when we got close to the table.
Kenzo stood up and then he pulled the chair next to Marga's Mommy, I bit my lower lip and then looked away.
"Thank you, Love." Marga said as soon as she sat down, Kenzo just nodded and sat next to her. So, you pulled a chair for Marga, I didn't? I asked myself and I felt a small knife stabbing my heart.
Even though I didn't mean to bang if you pulled the chair next to Kenzo so they all looked at me. I just realized.
"Sorry! It's a bit heavy." And I felt like laughing even more.
"Aww so careless, it must be Aunt..." And then Marga turned to Mommy. "Enroll Selena in charm school too." I frowned at what Marga said. What is charm school? I didn't expect that he was also watching my reaction.
He smirked at me and then arrogantly said what kind of charm school is that. "That's a finishing school for young women that focuses on teaching social graces and upper-class cultural rites as a preparation for entry into society. In the United States it is sometimes called a charm school." He continued to tell me and then he smiled sweetly at me, as if to say that now, I know more than you, you poor girl!
I gave him a hard time and then I drank water to calm myself down before I spilled the water on him.
"Also for him to know how to pull a chair properly." Marga added that this time I couldn't stop myself and I dropped the glass on the table, I even had water left over and spilled something else in front of me, that's why I'm wearing a dress that's wet on my chest.
"Are you my problem?" Angry if asked him.
"Selena what's wrong?" Mommy asked me a worried question, just in case before I could answer, Marga was already ahead of me, her facial reaction changed from being angry to now showing pity.
"Aww, maybe Selena is not in the mood. We talked earlier in the wash room, I apologized to her." What kind of impact is this?! That's not what we talked about, ah!
"Just in case, I can understand if he's still in a bad mood..." And he bit his lip. I clenched my fists in annoyance and tried to calm myself down.
"He lost the people who adopted him and that's because of Selena."
"Marga." Kenzo said and he even held Marga's hand.
"What? Isn't that the truth? She lost her so called parents because she also made a mistake in approaching you in class, Love, it's really good that you're siblings –" Marga couldn't finish what she was going to say because the three of them, Mommy, Marga and her Mother, started screaming at the same time. Marga's Father and Kenzo stood up from where they were sitting.
I just took the pitcher that was full of ice tea and then I threw it in Marga's face, because she didn't want to stop talking. Marga was taken care of immediately by her mother, since her face and half of her dress were wet. It's no wonder because the full pitcher of ice tea is almost empty.
"I don't think we can continue the wedding conversation on what happened. I also don't know what to do if I answer your apology Sofia. I didn't expect all this." And then he took his phone from his pocket.
"Please excuse me, I will call home to check if they can bring some clothes here as soon as possible for Marga." Mommy nodded and then sadly said -
