Chapter 3 Nino Confronts Lila
"Go, Nino! Yeah, good job!" Alya calls out when the band does their warm-up song.
Lila the flutist gives Alya a glare of annoyance from the stage.
Alya ignores her and continues to cheer for Nino. Nino plays his guitar and smiles. He does not notice the rotten looks his girlfriend gives Alya.
The band continues to play. After the concert, Nino packs up his guitar, the other instrument players pack up their instruments, and the soloist packs up his special microphone.
The couples leave together. Alya goes home as well. She enjoys a nice snack and reads a book afterward.
Nino talks with Lila. "Let's go, Lila!" Nino says.
"Ok, fine by me," Lila says. She looks so bored.
Nino and Lila go out for a belated lunch together. At the restaurant, Lila notices Nino is unusually quiet, "Nino what is the matter? You seem tense lately." Lila says.
"Yes, well I have a lot on my mind," Nino says.
"Oh, like what babe?" Lila asks.
"Sometimes, I wonder when we are part of the same band if it is okay for us to be seen in public together," Nino says.
"What do you mean? We are dating, nothing is wrong with it. Lots of famous people date each other all the time," Lila says.
"You might be right about this, but who is to say we are right for each other?" Nino asks.
"Nino, what are you saying?" Lila asks.
"I am saying I think we may need a break from each other," Nino remarks.
"What? Why would you even suggest such a thing?" Lila asks.
Nino pulls his hat down over his eyes, "Lila we both now this was bound to happen." He says.
"I do not understand Nino, I thought we were fine." Lila whines.
"I thought so too at one point," Nino says but looks at the ground.
"I realize now how wrong I was to believe in us," Nino remarks.
"What is all this coming from anyway?" Lila asks.
"I could ask you the same thing, Lila. What is the meaning of this?" Nino asks.
Nino shows her a copy of her latest Twitter post. It reads: My boyfriend Nino is so cute. He is clueless but cute. #Lila Rossi He has no idea the rumors are true that I cheated on him with another guy. The poor clueless dude. He is great, rich, but not smart.
"Explain to me, Lila now! What do you have to say for yourself?" Nino asks.
"Should I even call you Lila, or should I call you a traitor?" Nino yells angrily.
"Where did you see that anyway? I never posted such a thing," Lila lies.
"Enough, Lila we are through, I have had enough of you and your lies," Nino says.
"What you can not dump me over some stupid Twitter post." She snaps at him.
"It is not a Twitter post, it is more like two Twitter posts,'' He says.
"Nino, you can not be serious," Lila whines.
"Oh, but I can see here is the post from last night," Nino says.
Twitter account, Lila Rossi latest post:
Nino is cute, rich, unsmart and such a bore. He does not know I only want his money. To bad for him. Also, the guy I am with now is hot! I mean he has the muscles that Nino never will have. #Tweet #LilaRossi at Twitter.com #hot boy #muscles #seephoto
"This second one even shows a photo of the two of you together. He has a hand on your waist, and you have your hand on his back. Then, there is two photos of you kissing, one with you wearing the dress I gave you for your birthday. The other one we will not go there when it comes to the lewdness." Nino says angrily.
"Nino, you are breaking up with me?" Lila asks.
"What was your first clue?" Nino asks sarcastically. He gets up from the table pays for Lila's salad, and his untouched burger, and leaves.
Nino arrives home and posts on his Twitter account, [email protected] #Tweetsheisoldnews #singleman #freedom #LilaandIarenomore #sheisacheaterandIdonotnnedher #sheisgoldigger
Then, Nino sends out a letter to the other band members to let them know he dumped Lila. He wants them to know he is no longer with the untrustworthy, rotten, gold-digging, cheater.
Nino shakes his head in dismay. He can not believe he fell for Lila's lies. He thought she cared about it, but the entire time it was a lie. He is just glad he figured it out before he wasted time buying her a ring. He shudders at the thought of her and him being married. He is grateful he bailed out of the relationship while the going was still good.
He is hurt sure, but heartbroken probably not. He knows it would not ever work out that well for them. Even if she had not cheated he still would have felt like she was up to no good. Goodness, he should have known with how horrible her kisses were, and the fact she gives everyone that fake smile all the time.
It might take him a while to get used to it, but he is a free man. He might as well enjoy being single again. Besides, at the right time who knows what could happen, he could end up with a great girl one way better than Rossi.
Lila's POV:
How dare Nino dump her? How dare he brag about it on Twitter, how could he?
She is furious with him and thinks, he will regret it.
