ARIELLA | Oscar Diaz

14- resentment

"Well next time you wanna cheat make sure you don't have people recording your ass!" I yelled before hanging up the phone.

Then i put my phone in my back pocket and got up.

I did not want to tell Dom or Letty. So i walked over to Cesar's house so i could keep my mind off things.

The guys were already chilling on the lawn, they clearly don't waste time.

"Wassup lil ortiz!" Vincent smiled as he hugged me along with Hector. I could see Oscar in the corner of my eye. I just pretended he didn't exist.

I forced a smile and before i could ask where Cesar was i saw him walk out the house and look at me with sadness.

"Ariella are you okay?" Cesar asked softly as i just nodded my head. I wanted to be, but with the way he was acting towards me it was difficult.

"Cesar stop im fine." I exhaled deeply as i turned to avoid eye contact. We now walked a little bit further from the Santos so they couldn't eavesdrop.

"Shut up no you're not." He said pulling me into a hug as i began to cry in his chest.

Fuck i was sad. I felt stupid. And now everyone is going to say they knew he would play me.

I could hear the guys mumble shit to each other. Guys dont know how to react when a girl cries, and i dont blame them.

I continued to cry as Cesar walked me inside so the guys wouldn't have to see me cry and vent.

He walked into his room and set me on the bed and closed the door.

"Did you dump his ass?" Cesar sat next to me as i shook my head.

"Um no. Not officially." I whispered as he groaned in annoyance.

"And why not?" He asked as i let out a sigh.

"Because i cant just break up with him like that." I said as i start to tear up again.

"Dont cry." He sighed as he held  me closer.

"How could he do that to me?" I sobbed making him frown.

"Because hes stupid. He doesnt realize what he has." Cesar explained as he held me tight while rubbing my back.

"You're right." I let out a small laugh.

About an hour later Cesar said he was gonna run to the corner store to get ice cream.

I waited in his room until he came back but he was taking a while.

I needed to use the bathroom but I heard Oscar and the guys in the living room. There was no way i can go to the bathroom without being spotted.

"Fuck." I mumbled as i decided to make a run for it.

I opened the door to Cesar's room and walked into the living room and everyone got quiet.

I smiled awkwardly as i walked past them and went to the bathroom.

As i made my way into the hallway i bumped into someone. Well not just someone.

"Shit my bad." I looked up to see Oscar coming out the bathroom.

"Uhhhhh.. sorry!" I said quickly avoiding eye contact.

"Ariella." He said softly as he held my hand. My eyes slowly met his.

"Are you okay mamas?" the delicateness in his voice was making me feel things.

"Yup." I said blankly as i pulled away and headed towards the bathroom.

Then out of nowhere i felt my body being pressed against the hallway wall. Thank god we were hidden by the wall and nobody could see us.

I could feel Oscar's breathing on my neck.

"Why are you avoiding me? Did i do something?" He questioned as i just nodded my head slowly.

"What is it?" He questioned as i shook my head.

"If you don't know then clearly you didnt find it as a problem." I said while leaning my head against the wall.

"Well im sorry." He sighed as he slowly let go of my body. I missed the warmth radiating from his body and onto mine. But i knew it was a good thing he pulled away.

"I am too." I frowned at him as i walked past him and went inside the bathroom.

How could he not know what he did? Maybe he just doesnt care that he's constantly making flirtatious jabs at me. It was confusing, and fucked up to play with me like that. The same way he did in the past. Plus he was with Nicole. Nicole, the girl he ditched me for when we were younger. What he did in the past was creating this built up anger in me, and the resentment i had didnt go away.
