Chapter 30 - Bro Talk (2/2)
” Not so good, not so bad ” His eyes twisted into a frown.
” You didn't tell her?” He flattened his expression and gave me a 'Seriously dude' - type look.
” Uh... it's kinda complicated.”
” Complicated? How so?”
” Well I already had a girlfriend of two years and I realised about my true feelings after breaking up with her.”
” That's good then. You're not in a relationship so, you can freely confess to her without any guilt, then make her your girlfriend.”
” Umm.... that can't be possible.”
” Why? ” Dalton looked totally confused as I was continuing our conversation.
” Because she's married to me.”
” WHAT!” He literally yelled out loudly and my ear was deeply effected by his sharp pitching noise.
” Yes. We were arranged to marry each other by our parents. I was still in a relationship with my girlfriend but we recently broke up after she was fed up with me.”
” How long you guys were married?”
” Almost four months now.”
” So your crush, I mean your wife knew about you being with someone else?”
” Yes... well. Actually she knew it before we got married.”
”What is wrong with you people?”
” We kinda made a contract.”
I told him every thing from the starting. After listening to the whole story Dalton was still looking at me weirdly as if I was a rare specimen or some alien.
”— so that's it. That's the whole story.”
” Seriously you rich people! Can't you just live a normal life! Jesus Christ!” Dalton rolled his eyes and sighed.
He looked annoyed and resentful that moment.
” Does she has any boyfriend or some one?”
” I don't know. I never talked with her regarding this topic.”
” Excellent!” Dalton gave me the second glass since I already finished the first one. I took the sip from it but the alcohol still didn't start to work.
” I'm really scared, I really, really, really scared. I don't want to loose her. The thought of her leaving me rips apart my ċhėst.”
” You should tell her how you feel before it's too late. There's always someone who can do it before than you. He can take that place which you wanted. That will be messed up bro. Don't do something that you'll regret later.” I chuckled and started to laugh at his comment.
” I already regret so many things. I regret dating all those girls, I regret drowning myself into the work, I regret not spending time with my family, I regret hurting Regina. I'm such a piece of shit.” Dalton looked at me with a pained expression. He was feeling sympathetic over my lamentation.
