Jasleena

"If it isn't the two nastiest females in town." That snapped me right out of thoughts. I pretty much broke my neck looking at the one person that voice was coming from. "You really think a paper will keep me away. You're a liar Paola. And you." He pointed at me. "I loved you and you did this." He pointed his finger up and down my body. I was so mad. "I suggest you leave Jacob." He started laughing hysterically. "Or what, Leena? Your bar boyfriend will come after me? Is he even your boyfriend? He was so quick to snatch you up right? And there you were so quick to open up for him." I was beyond upset. I got up so fast and faced him. Pointing at his face I said, "Watch what you say Jacob. I am not the same woman you knew then. I suggest you leave!" I was trying my best not to lose it in the cafe. He laughed in my face. "You didn't want to give yourself to me but opened your legs real wide for that man. Now look at you. I bet he left your ass already." He started to laugh but midway stopped because my hand met his face. "Who the hell do you think you are?" He went to raise his hand to hit me. Paola pulled me back and someone gripped him from behind. "I will kill you if you lay a finger on my girl!"

Luka. Luka? How? When? What? My mind was in a rage. Mad as all hell at Jacob and his audacity. Happy, yet sad, that it's Luka. Paola was sobbing while holding me. I was simply standing there staring at Luka drag Jacob out. I hear Paola on the phone sobbing to her mom. I hear people asking if I am ok. Yet I couldn't answer them correctly. I nodded and grabbed Paola's arm. I left money on the table, for meals we couldn't even enjoy, and left the cafe. Walking out I saw Luka beating Jacob up. I saw my parents car pulling up and them running out the car. I saw Paola's parents' car doing the same. My dad and Tio both were trying to pull Luka off of Jacob. Tia and Ma were running towards Paola and I. Tia embraced Paola as she sobbed. My mother went to embrace me and I stepped away. Shaking my head no. I was way too overwhelmed. My emotions were all over the place. I wanted to get away. I wanted to breathe. I wanted to hide. "Leena?" I heard her, Ma, but I ignored. As I went to walk away a wave of dizziness hit me like a ton of bricks. I felt myself falling. Then nothing.
