1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,440 I don't know. But maybe I'm too good at hiding, or maybe Matthias just doesn't want to find me. 2 00:00:06,400 --> 00:00:11,920 I'm starting to think it's the latter. It's been three months since I ran away from Matthias' 3 00:00:11,920 --> 00:00:18,800 engagement proposal, or whatever he called it. After he dropped me off, I began packing and 4 00:00:18,800 --> 00:00:25,120 left with only the clothes on my back, a small suitcase, and nothing else. Anything that could 5 00:00:25,120 --> 00:00:32,320 have traced me back, I left at the apartment. I went to multiple ATMs and withdrew as much money 6 00:00:32,320 --> 00:00:39,760 as I could, hoping it would last me until I found a new job. Speaking of jobs, it's so much fucking 7 00:00:39,760 --> 00:00:45,440 harder to get one than I expected. Even though I have my accounting degree, they don't think I have 8 00:00:45,440 --> 00:00:51,360 enough experience. And then there's the fact that I left my previous job without notice. 9 00:00:51,360 --> 00:00:59,040 I think they believe I'm unreliable. I did eventually get a job, though, as a waitress 10 00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:06,160 at a fancy restaurant. It's going well, but the hours and the pay are killing me. Let's just say 11 00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:14,320 I can't live like I used to. Even my apartment is small and shabby. I'll be honest. I miss Matthias. 12 00:01:14,320 --> 00:01:21,120 I miss the life I had. Come to think of it, I was probably overreacting about everything. 13 00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:26,800 And it makes me even matter that he hasn't come looking for me. I think he's trying to teach 14 00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:33,280 me a lesson. And it's working. It's fucking working. Working at the restaurant sucks because 15 00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:39,840 the pay is low and the tips are crappy. Well, I make a good bit, but there's this pooling rule 16 00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:44,560 so that other waiters get a fair share. It's not my fault they don't work as hard as I do. 17 00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:51,440 I can't remember the last time I had a good pedicure and massage. All my money goes toward rent, 18 00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:58,560 food, and transport. There's no way I can survive like this long term. I could end it all right now, 19 00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:05,760 but I'd regret it terribly. Matthias would rub it in my face. I don't even want to imagine the 20 00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:12,880 smirk on his face. Fuck it. I take a deep breath and head to the nearest ATM by my apartment. 21 00:02:13,920 --> 00:02:18,400 I withdraw the most I can from his bank card, stash the money, and head home. 22 00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:27,200 Three days. It takes Matthias Ford three full days to find me. I'm angry and relieved at the same 23 00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:33,680 time. Angry that he took this long and relieved that he still thinks I'm worth saving. I was 24 00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:38,320 handling four customers when my manager pulled me aside and told me to take the VIP booth. 25 00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:45,200 I immediately knew it was him, because one, I've never had a VIP customer, and two, 26 00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:51,600 Matthias never does regular. I even made a fuss to my boss, arguing that I was already handling 27 00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:58,640 four people, and she single-handedly took them from me. I take a quick bathroom break to fix myself, 28 00:02:58,640 --> 00:03:05,760 then head over. Nazia washes over me as I pull back the VIP curtain. Matthias is here all right, 29 00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:14,000 but with a woman. She almost looks like me, with midnight black long hair, slim, 30 00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:18,720 and wearing stiletto red nails just like I used to. She clears her throat. 31 00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:26,880 I know I'm pretty, but it's rude to stare, she says. I narrow my eyes at her, then at Matthias, 32 00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:29,760 who by the way, is browsing the menu nonchalantly. 33 00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:32,720 Hun, are you ready to order for us? 34 00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:37,840 Hun? Matthias sets his menu down and finally looks up at me. 35 00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:40,160 Aren't you going to write it down? 36 00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:44,160 I reach for my notepad, but it's not there. 37 00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:46,960 Shit. 38 00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:48,080 I have a good memory. 39 00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:52,000 The woman scoffs, tucking some hair behind her ear. 40 00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:55,600 As if, this is important so you better get it right. 41 00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:59,920 I give her a small smile, but it drops when I spot her hand. 42 00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:06,880 She's wearing a ring. Not just any ring. One of the rings Matthias gave me in his sham of a 43 00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:12,480 proposal. And she's wearing it. Wait, are they engaged? 44 00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:15,200 What did I say about staring, girl? 45 00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:17,120 Oh, I'm sorry. 46 00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:19,120 I say with deep sarcasm. 47 00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:21,360 But I just love your ring. 48 00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:22,800 She grins. 49 00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:25,760 Yes, my fiance has great tastes. 50 00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:30,960 My head whips to Matthias, but he still wears that bored expression. 51 00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:36,320 Are you still planning on taking our orders or are you going to fawn over shiny things all night? 52 00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:41,760 He asks. I growl under my breath. I take their order and leave. 53 00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:45,600 What was the purpose of him coming here with her if he'd come for me? 54 00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:47,760 And what's with the engagement? 55 00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:50,560 Matthias. Married? 56 00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:55,680 Well, he did say he wanted us to get married, but why would he propose to another woman? 57 00:04:56,720 --> 00:04:59,840 None of this makes sense, and it's making me uneasy. 58 00:05:01,280 --> 00:05:04,480 I return with their drinks, but his date is nowhere to be found. 59 00:05:05,280 --> 00:05:10,160 I set them on the table and attempt to walk away, but he grabs the hem of my apron. 60 00:05:11,280 --> 00:05:11,920 What? 61 00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:15,520 Matthias leans back in his chair and stretches out his hand. 62 00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:17,280 I eye him. 63 00:05:17,280 --> 00:05:20,320 Is he really asking for what I think he is? 64 00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:21,520 Never. 65 00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:24,560 Did I miss something else on your order? 66 00:05:25,840 --> 00:05:28,000 Don't play fucking coy with me. Now hand it over. 67 00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:29,680 Ask your fiance. 68 00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:31,360 I want yours. 69 00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:32,880 No. 70 00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:38,400 A breath leaves my lungs when he grabs the hem of my apron again and yanks me toward him. 71 00:05:39,280 --> 00:05:43,200 I believe the five grand you stole from me is enough to balance that, don't you think? 72 00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:48,480 I hate the throb between my thighs. I hate my heart for falling for him. 73 00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:54,160 And most of all, I hate that I did all of this just so he could come rescue me. 74 00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:56,960 It's unsanitary. 75 00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:00,000 Go to the washroom, remove it, and bring it to me. 76 00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:01,760 Why do you even- 77 00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:02,880 He squeezes my leg. 78 00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:04,240 Fine. 79 00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:07,040 I leave, cursing to myself. 80 00:06:07,840 --> 00:06:10,080 And just when I remove it and head back out, 81 00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:12,880 their order is ready.
