"He really went too far... he really humiliated me," Maine said, tears streaming down her face as she drank alcohol, "why did he do that to me, Demi?"They saw Dylan at the bar, accompanied by another woman. Dylan introduced her as just an acquaintance and even told the girl that Maine likes men with lots of money. The girl was deeply hurt by the insult she received.In retaliation, he flashed some money to Dylan's dance partner, and then handed her twenty thousand, telling her to leave Dylan on the dance floor, which the girl promptly did.Dylan was furious, but did not dare to argue with him because he was such a big guy. Maine was hurt, which is why she was crying. "That was really out of line. What he did to you was wrong," Demi said, comforting Maine. "Don't let him belittle you like that. You don't need to hold onto resentment, Maine."Demi could see the anger in Dylan's eyes as he approached. "Dylan, that's enough," he said, trying to defuse the situation.But Dylan didn't sto

"Wow, Maine! Looks like you still want a lot from me," he greeted her provocatively. She ignored him and replied, "I won't be coming back to you.""I don't care about you, Dylan. Don't bother me now," she said to him."How will you work then, since you didn't graduate? Your only asset is your beauty," he taunted her."You know, you only passed college because of my theses and my money, maybe you've forgotten?" she retorted, "Are you dumb? You only passed because you were a varsity player?""Don't show off to me, Maine, we're in my territory!""So what? Can't handle losing? You started it, I'm just fighting back. You know, Dylan, when you belittle someone, make sure your hands are clean! Despite your arrogance, you're just a manager!""At least I'm going somewhere in life, unlike you!" he smirked."Ma'am, here's your mango juice," the waiter placed the juice on the table."Thank you," she smiled."Give that back!" Dylan ordered the waiter, "That girl has no money to pay.""What's your

"Are you serious about this?" Sandro asked Demi, looking surprised."Well, I feel like Matilda would feel even more insecure if I replaced her with someone younger, don't you think?" Demi responded. "And besides, I want Dylan to realize that he dumped a precious stone into the sea.""Uncle, I like Demi's plan. And Matilda's behavior really is terrible," Demi's friend chimed in."But Maine is still quite young," Amethyst pointed out."Do you want to be the one instead?" Sandro asked his friend."Well, Maine is at the right age," Amethyst replied, which caused everyone to laugh."You're so easy to talk to, Amethyst," Sandro chuckled."I might get dragged into this," Amethyst shrugged. "I don't want to get involved and risk upsetting Demi.""You're too much," Sandro grinned at his friend's comment."Just admit it, you're really stubborn," Toby added."And you two really ganged up on me?" Demi responded."What Toby said is true," Sandro agreed."I think Maine should be on my side," Demi d

She felt like there was chaos outside, but she didn't want to get involved just yet. She still felt half-asleep.She headed to the bathroom to take a shower. She immersed herself in the water. She felt tired, like she hadn't slept much.She decided to check the time. Her eyes widened.(Is my clock broken? Why is it already eleven? How did I not realize it's already noon? Why?)She hurried her shower. She didn't know what had happened or how she had overslept.She put on a floral dress and added a ribbon to her hair. She applied a bit of powder and lipstick. She had picked up the habit of dressing up from her mother and grandmother, so she adopted it even when at home.Passing by her grandmother's room, she knocked. No response. She opened the door, but her grandmother wasn't there. Perhaps the old lady was out.Arriving in the living room, no one was there, yet she had heard commotion earlier.(Am I getting old? Where is everyone?) She whispered to herself.The study room door opened,

Only close friends were invited to that party. Matilda arrived looking poised and stunning. She greeted everyone present, accompanied by her boyfriend Art, who was in disguise to avoid being recognized."Hi baby," she kissed Demi on the cheek, "this party is so nice, what's the occasion?""Just a thanksgiving gathering," he smiled at her."Why is that girl invited?" Matilda pointed at her."This is our party, be grateful you were invited," she retorted, rolling her eyes at Matilda before turning away."That girl is so snooty," Matilda whispered to her, "anyway, I'll just stay by your side, okay?""That's fine," Demi replied to her."It looks like your friends aren't here?" she asked Demi."Would they ever miss this?" she answered. "They're here, of course.""Excuse me, I'll go to the men's room," Demi excused himself. This left her and Matilda alone."Why do you always try to cling to Demi?" she asked her."Me?" she was surprised by what she said."Yes, you! Once Demi and I are marrie
