Chapter 147
Chapter 147
“I haven’t been here in ages.” I sighed as I stared at the home where it all started. Dario stood beside me and surprisingly behaved the entire ride. He probably knew about Christian and I getting back together, but he didn’t say a word because that was typically Dario. He had to hear it from my mouth.
“So, this is where you grew up?” Dario asked. Regardless of the circumstances, I was still glad to do something good and wanted to make the best out of everything.
“You’re the first person to visit,” I confessed. “My parents, Beau and my friends have never been here.”
I wasn’t jumping at the idea of being alone with Dario, but we had collected toys and essentials for the children, and I did not want to miss out on that opportunity, even if it had to be with him.
Whenever he looked at me, all I could see was a liar. He lied to me, and he used me, and I was going to get him back for it. From now on. I would stand behind Christian.
“You must’ve been very popular.” Dario joked as he opened the trunk. “You’re beautiful, funny-I dare you to tell me it isn’t true.”
“It isn’t,” I spoke to his surprise. “I had a few friends, but I wasn’t that popular.”
“That’s surprising,” Dario commented. It honestly wasn’t, and the only one who could see right through me was Christian. There used to be a time when Christian would joke about me not being that popular. but moments like these made me realize how well he knew me. I didn’t know him, but he seemed to know everything about me.
“I actually got bullied,” I spoke as we unloaded the boxes. If I was going to try to get closer to him, I might as well try it now. “Not here though, the kids and I were very close-it was at school.”
“Bullied?” Dario spoke, worried, and stopped whatever he was doing to look at me. “How come?”
“I personally think it was because they used to see me as a threat,” I spoke. It was a bold statement, but it was true. It was why Isobel and all the other girls, including the girls at the club, initially didn’t like my
presence.
“I didn’t know you were that confident.” Dario laughed. “So I suppose you never really liked school?”
I was bothered because all of this was a way for him to open up to me, but he wouldn’t budge. He was so secretive, and it seemed impossible to break through to him. “It was. I got expelled more times than I could count, and it was only because I fought back.” I told him.
“I was only defending myself and meant no harm-but for some reason, they thought I was the devil. Strange, right?”
The smile on Dario face had vanished, and it became clear to me that I had finally pushed a button. “I know the feeling,” Dario sighed. I could see the anger through his eyes and wanted to ask him more, but I had to follow Christian and Marc’s instructions. Dario was not stupid and would probably notice my
