She reached Cindy just as she concluded her call and lowered her phone from her ear. She was surprised to turn around and find Sylvic.

"Hi?" Her brows furrowed.

Sylvie's countenance was impassive, rage running through her veins.

The memories flooded her at once-going shopping with Cindy staying up late into the night making video calls with her and telling her about her day, going to her for advice... Then, Kage's hurtful words: 'I regret the day I met you!

That had all been Cindy.

She allowed her see the storm brewing in her eyes as she came to a stop before her, just inches away.

"Do you need something, Sylvie?" Cindy asked, clearly uncomfortable with the way Sylvie stared at her. Silence passed, then Sylvie asked. "Was there ever a time you were my friend?"

Confusion flickered across Cindy's face. "What're you-"

"You've always wanted him, haven't you? You've always wanted to take him from me. To see me ruined."

"Seriously? Are we still on this?" She rolled her eyes. "Look, I came here for a reason, okay? and not to listen to you sulk. So, if you wouldn't mind, I'll be heading back to the party."

Sylvie's hands clenched into fists, watching Cindy as she walked past her.

"Why did you send him the recording?" The words scraped against her throat, quickening her pulse. But it brought Cindy to an abrupt halt, and after some seconds, she turned on her heel, facing Sylvie.

"I know it was you," Sylvie continued, a slight quake in her voice. "You had access to my email and received it when Lancelot sent it to me. Then, you sent it to Kage."

Cindy appeared too stunned to speak. Sylvie stepped closer, her hands still clenched beside her.

A million ways to hurt Cindy haunted her thoughts, and it was a fierce battle ignoring those voices.

"Why did you do it?" She grounded. "You were my bestfriend! If we hadn't been so close, you wouldn't have had access to my email in the first place. You saw something like that and didn't think of approaching me to discuss it? Instead, you went right to Kage to ruin me? Was that the only reason you were in my life?"

Cindy's eyes watered, guilt reflecting in them. But her face was still hardened, her lips pressing firmly.

"How could you!?" Sylvie's voice rose a notch.
