Georgina Ricci's POV

                WHEN I heard Anthony's last words, I felt like my life was just a joke. Is God making a joke on me?

He still cheated on you, Georgina! My inner-self yells.

I felt a hand grabbing the phone and before I knew it, in a fraction of seconds, I saw the phone flying to the wall, then broke into pieces as it lands on the floor.

I shot Marco an incredulous look, as I tried to gather my scrambled thoughts after Anthony's revelation.

When my eyes landed on his menacing eyes, fear crawled in my gut. Those eyes that were ready to kill was staring back at mine. Jaws clenched and I could feel the anger radiating off him. His muscles flexed as he breathes harshly. I moved back to

the bed and felt the tears brimming around my eyelid.

I don't know what's causes the tears, either because of fear or for his sudden change of emotions? I wanted to hold it, but it was impossible.

"You are not allowed to talk to anyone, especially that Anthony." He yelled gruffly as he leaned on the bed hovering over me. I flinched and move a little back. "If you care for his future, then stay away from him!" He grits out with his eyes screaming red, then he rose to his full height pacing back and forth inside the room with his hands shoved deep in his pockets, looking quite perturbed.

I felt my tears ran down my cheeks non-stop. No matter how I want to hold it, it stubbornly made it's way to my cheeks. Why did I believe his words?

He's a heartless, cold impassioned bastard. He doesn't care for anyone but himself.

My hopes are too high. I expect too much which I shouldn't. I was here to just pay a debt. I should have thought about that.

Now it's too late. I had admitted my feelings to him and probably he thought I would do anything he will ask me since I love him. It's embarrassing, distressing and I felt hopeless.

I look down further to hide my tears as I bit my bottom lip trying to stifle the sob. Then, I felt his footstep coming to my direction.

"Fanculo!" I heard him cussed non-stop, but I didn't bother looking up on him. I could feel his closeness, but I didn't dare look up.

"Cara," his soft soothing drawl reach my ears. I ignored it, looking down on my clasp hands on my lap.

I felt the bed dipped, yet again I ignored him. "Cara, please look at me," He begs with his remorseful voice as he tips my chin with his finger. I look up to see his remorseful eyes staring at me. When he tried to pull me, I flinch and he grumbled under his breath incoherently. His eyes were soft and full of regrets.

"I'm sorry, cara, please. I lost my temper and I scared you. I shouldn't yell at you." He apologized as he sat on the bed and pulled me on his chest. This time, I didn't flinch. I let him hold me as I cried even more.

I pulled my body away from him as soon as I recollected myself and stop the tears. I wipe the last drop with the back of my hand and bravely spoke. "I shouldn't expect too much. I was here to pay a debt." I started, then biting my bottom lip to stifle the tears again. "I shouldn't give meaning to those words you admitted. I was a fool," I sniffed as I look down. Again, the tears started to roll down my cheeks.
