Chapter- 15 Broken truths

Start from the beginning
                                    

"And don't even get me started with your recent behavior Li," l gave him a pointed look, this time he was genuinely confused. "I saw you in the mall with a woman," it came out more like a complaint than the tone I intend. "You canceled our plans for a stranger."

I didn't want to bring this up now but before I could comprehend what I spoke, those words were out.

This time he let out a series of huffs followed by a head shake. "All this was about her isn't it?" he clenched his fists, looking at me as if I am the one making things up.

"Stop assuming," I groaned. Before I could speak and explain to him, he cut me off.

"No, you are right. I get it, Moon, I get it," his tone was mono and angry.

"Li, again you are assuming Li," I started, trying to stop him before he let out something he'll regret in the future. But again, he cut me off.

This is not the Li I know. My Li never cuts a person to speak.

What's happening to you Li?

"No, you are right," he raised his voice. "You hate that I canceled our plans, you hate that I went out with someone else when we were supposed to go," he kept his hands in the air in a questioning way, "but never in my life I imagined that you would throw such a web of lies and create so much drama for one simple thing," he shook his head as if he was disappointed in me.

"Grow up Moon, I have a life, I cannot babysit you throughout your whole life. You cannot expect me to cancel all my plans to hang out with you. I am serious grow up Moon."

I don't want to admit it, God, I hate it to admit it. But it's clear from his words how Li sees me. I was just a burden to him, just an obligation.

It took him a minute to realize what he's done. But it's too late, the damage has already been done.

"Shit Moon, I didn't mean it that way," he stood up to come near me. But his presence itself is more suffocating than I imagined it to be. I don't want to be suffocated more.

I shook my head moving back from him, creating a distance. He stopped realizing how repulsive I am towards him.

"You are right Li, It was wrong of me," I started sniffing, trying hard not to show how hurt I was because of his words.

He spoke a lot and it is my time to speak.

"You are right. It was wrong of me to expect that my best friend will never cancel our monthly ritual. It was wrong of me to think you'll be there for me when hard times come. It was wrong of me to assume you considered me as a best friend just like how I considered you. It was wrong of me to believe you blindly when all these times you've been lying about your whole identity and yes, it was me who's at fault.

"And you know why? Because I was the one who lied to you about me being a werewolf, I was the one who hid my whole identity, I was the one who was kept in dark about a memory spell that was put on me without even my consent," I chuckled letting out the tears fall.

I hate this, I hate how tears fall messing up the whole thing when I am angry in the first place. Tears make me feel so weak.

"And oh yeah," I continued. "I was the one who's now making up things to grab your attention, I was the one who hired up people to kidnap me. I asked them to call me the golden wolf, I asked them to slit my hand to withdraw blood, I asked them to chase me even after I escape, I asked them to haunt me from saying things I don't even have a freaking clue about.

"And yes, I never called you from the PCO, desperate and begging for your help since you are the only person who came to my mind. And yes, Noah didn't find me in the streets all bleeding and running away from those unknown monsters and most definitely I made up the fainting drama and I created the concept of memory-erasing spell or whatever."

By the time I finished, I was full panting but no, I wanted to tell more.

"And yes, I have amazing creativity, don't I?" I chuckled.

"And yes, no one picked up your phone and cut me off. And yes, when you call your secretary for call records, you won't find mine since I am a liar and I made up things."

Due to safety purposes, nothing will get stored in his call logs after twenty-four hours. Everything will be saved in his office computer which is handled by his secretary.

"Moon, I-I," he started but I cut him off again.

"I don't want to talk to you Li, go away. You clearly told me what I am to you and where I stand. The message has been received crystal clear and understood. There's no need for any further explanation," I gave him a huge smile and left upstairs not wanting to do anything with him.

It hurts, it hurts way too much than I expected it to be.
