But I realized I wasn't finished yet. There were still a couple things to get off my chest. "Was this your plan? To humiliate me in my own home. Well, you win Malik. You've embarrassed me long enough. Ruining my name in public with your little stunt.

I was already in too deep.
And the way he said my name at the end made me fall for him even harder.
