Chapter 27

*C's P.O.V.*

Right after I realized that Chasity will not be coming back, I sprinted towards Patrick house. I have no intention of telling him even if I want to, I made a promise to Chasity that I won't and that girl really made up her mind. I think that no matter how hard I try to make sense with her, it will just go in vain and if I try to convince everyone else, I'll just fail...so what else am I going to do? She gave me this life like a birthday present, I should just appreciate it and do her last favor.

I arrived in front of Patrick's house in no time, I just stared at his door for a moment while I try to catch my breath and to contemplate that once Patrick answered this door, there's no turning back for me, I'll be completely taking over Chasity's life.

"Fuck it." I whispered as the tears came falling down from my eyes again. I can't even stand thinking about Chasity and her efforts just to have this, but she failed and I was the one who'll take advantage of that. "I'm so sorry." I murmured and I weakly knock on Patrick's door.

I kept on knocking until Patrick opened the door and I immediately tackled him with a hug and I've never cried like this before. The guilt and the pity I was feeling were too mesmerizing. I want to tell everything to Patrick, but he'll just think that I was being blackmailed, Chasity was right. They closed out on her...but then again that happened because of me.

"Hey, whoa, whoa. What are you doing here in a time like this? And why are you crying, princess? Did something happen?" Patrick asked as he hold me tightly.

"I'm sorry! I'm so sorry!" I kept on murmuring as I nod my head on his chest. Patrick suddenly hold me by my cheeks and made me look at him, I swear I look like a cry baby here.

"What for? What happened? Are you okay?" Patrick asked, but I cried more...this affection should be towards her...that poor girl. The only thing I can do for her now is to grant her favor every day.

I slowly put my hands over Patrick's cheeks and went in for a kiss. Yes, I may love Patrick, but I know that it will not come to the extent of the real Chasity's feelings for him. I can see in Chasity's eyes the love she has for this and I know I can never surpass that, so I'll be dedicating my life just to remind Patrick that feeling!

"I love you...every day! I love you so much and I don't want you to forget that. No matter where I am, I will always love you." I said to him and it's coming out like I'm telling him this for another person.

Patrick stared at me then he just hugged me after, I saw a bit of confusion in his eyes, but he tried so hard to brush it off.

"I love you too, Chasity. I really do," he said and I whimpered again.

"Please, please...open your eyes." I whispered and I think Patrick didn't hear me say that.

How can I live with this kind of feelings inside of me?


*Chasity's P.O.V.*

"Chasity! Hey! Wake up!" I suddenly heard someone said while gently shaking me. I almost made myself believe that it was Patrick, but then again, that will be too good to be true.

"What?" I said irritably as I remember that I'm still staying with Matthew after all that happened. I have no fucking choice, I have nowhere to go and I literally don't have a life now.

"You have to eat, you haven't eaten a single bite since yesterday." Matthew said in an authoritative tone.

I slowly opened my eyes and sighed.

"Why would I eat? I'm not even hungry and if I am, I would just starve myself to death." I asked coldly.

"You're lying." Matthew said while he sat on the edge of the bed. "If you want to kill yourself, you would have already done it, Ms. Parker. You're free to roam around here, there are knives in the kitchen, there are bridges outside and there's a huge ass sea just outside. You have many options, so I would like to ask you...why are you still here if you want to commit suicide?" He asked me.

Fine! He's right, and maybe the explanation is that I can't bring myself to do it because I'm scared!

"So? Why don't you just let me be? Why are you still bugging me to eat like you care?" I answered him.

"You're living under my roof, so please --

"Then I'll fucking leave if that's -- " I stood up and began to walk, but he suddenly caught me in my arm.

"Chasity! Look, please, can you sit down?" He said and I somehow heard some sincerity in his voice.

I really can't understand him, it's like he suddenly go full out kind and nice to me, is this his way of mocking me more? His way to turn me to him?

"Why do you fucking care?! Let me just remind you, Matthew, YOU CAUSED ALL THIS. I'm miserable because of you! I lost my fucking life because of you, yes, you got your revenge! But...but, you did greater damage!! You fucking asshole!" I said as I explode in front of him.

He suddenly averted his eyes from me, he looked hurt but still determined.

"And that's the same reason why I wanted to help you. I made a mistake and I admit that, Chasity. No, not taking revenge, because no matter what I will always take revenge on them! But what I mean by making a mistake is...ruining you. You did nothing to me, yet you're the one who's suffering the most here and I'm terribly sorry!" He said and he's even looking at me which shocked me.

I can feel that every word he says is true, maybe this is like him before...when he and the guys are still together. He looked like a nice and cool guy, but still he did this all and he can't undo this now.

"Now what? You think I'll forgive you just by giving me food and apologizing?" I angrily asked him.

"Of course not! Believe me Chasity, I would fucking go to them and tell them that you're the real one, but I know and you know they won't bite it and just think of it as a trap! I can't do anything about that now and I'm so sorry!" He told me and I just stared at him. "But I'll be giving you the best chance you can have...a new life?"

I suddenly laughed coldly at him, this guy is insane, but I know he's really doing something to help me.

"So for you, life is just like a present, huh? Like, you casually give them to people like a thing?" I asked him with sarcasm. "Now, who's life are you going to take to exchange me with?" I added mockingly.

Matthew sighed and looked at me seriously.

"Your new life, we can get out of the country, start somewhere from there, I'm done. I already did enough and I'm satisfied with what I've done to them, now its time for me to help you." He said eagerly.

"We?!" I asked loudly and laughed out loud with the thought. "How and when did you and I have a 'we'?! Do you really think that I'll live a life with you? The person who ruined everything for me?!" I shouted at him.

"That's why I'm giving you this chance and I know you already know what must be done if you accept this, Chasity. But still, you have an option here, stay as a lifeless person...or choose the option where you know you're going to be happy again even if you deny it. Your choice, love." He said before he walked away and God knows I would do anything just to end this misery...of course, without killing myself...


*Patrick's P.O.V.*


I don't know why, but I kept on dreaming about that girl.


I know! I kept on telling myself that she's not real, but she has all Chasity's features and it haunts me...now I'm beginning to have my doubts too.


"Come on, Patrick! She can't be Chasity, she's with Matthew!" I said to myself trying to calm myself down.


I looked at the clock and it is just three in the morning. I sighed and turned while I continue to convince myself that that girl should not be any problem to me and that I shouldn't think about her. Most probably that girl is working for Matthew and I can't let her ruin what I have now. I'm too scared of losing Chasity again.


Speaking of Chasity, I'm worried about her. I think the girl that has her old appearance bothered her so much. She's been off these days and I know that she wants to tell us something, but she's holding back. I always ask her what the problem is, but she would just say nothing to me. I kept on telling her that she should forget about the girl and that we believe in her, but that just makes her more upset, which is kind of frustrating. I can see that she's still trying to be cheerful, and the girl never missed a day without telling me that she loves me very much and I really appreciate that. I just wish she would come back to herself again soon or she would open up her problems to us. I bet she's being like this because she's still thinking about her brother.


I sighed as I reach for my phone on the table beside me because I can't push myself to sleep now. I unlocked my phone and the brightness hit my face, after a few moments, my sight adjusted to it and I saw my wallpaper again...it was a picture of me and Chase...the first ever selfie we took together back then. I still don't know that she's a girl when this picture was taken, but now that thought only makes me laugh. The picture was too perfect and I found myself staring at her in this picture. Yes, I may have been with the new-faced Chasity for months now, but it seems like I can't replace this wallpaper with our new pictures. I smiled at it and continued to stare and out of nowhere, I heard that girl's voice inside my head again.


"And no matter how stupid you are...I will always love you, and that's just what I've been dying to tell you every day." I heard her voice inside my head.


Why am I having doubts right now...is it just because of this line? Maybe...because this is one of the perfect lines that I can only hear Chasity saying.
