Kyle

I saw Celine disappear from my sight like a dust blown by the wind, in that situation I knew it was impossible for me to reach her or hold her in my hands.

It was impossible to control the anger, and all the blame was directed at Monique, and for the first time I made it clear to her what I really thought.

I took a step forward, turned to her and faced her, that naughty face, and flashy breasts could no longer be a reason for disagreements between me and Celine.

"Can you answer me something Monique?"

Monique: Of course, you can do anything with me Ky.

"Do you always put your body and your dignity on sale?"

She frowned, and from what I saw, my question hit her hard.

Monique: What is this stupid question Kyle?

— It's a question that men usually ask themselves when they come across women like you, who don't know how to control themselves and use their bodies to get what they want, putting themselves on a shelf, like a real object, it's exactly that type of women I want away from, did you understand?

I took a step towards her and stared at her teary eyes very closely, as if I was going to kiss her, but the intention was the complete opposite, I wanted to hurt her enough to push her away for good.

— And I think it's good that you study, because there is no pussy in the world that will make me pass you if you fail my subject.

Tears started to fall from her eyes, and that didn't move me at all, I was cold and direct, and then I turned my back on her and got out of there as fast as I could.

Before going to teach the next class, I took my cell phone out of my pocket and called Celine, I couldn't lose her, that girl could be the biggest mistake of my life, but imagining her out of reach of my hands caused me a absurd tightness in the chest, I've never felt that for anyone.

She didn't answer any of my calls, and I had to teach my classes and play my role well as I've always done since becoming a teacher, and even though I constantly felt like dropping everything and going after her, I opted to wait, it was better, after all deep down I knew that I had passed the point, and that solving things at that moment, could make everything worse for me.

Between one class and another I even tried to call her several times, but as expected she didn't answer.

My mood at the end of the day kept all the students away from me, that version of me was new to them, after all I've always been a friendly teacher and they weren't used to seeing me so irritated.

I could hear the comments they were making, and hearing that only made me angrier.

“It was that student who left him like this”...

"It's not the first time she's clashed with him"...

"I've never seen him so stressed out, he doesn't even look like the Kyle I know."

I only needed to look in their direction to realize that I heard everything and I didn't like it.

I tried to get to my car without having to send anyone to hell, and it was harder than I imagined, because to make matters worse I met Monique on the way to the parking lot, and as much as I tried at all costs to ignore her, she didn't let it happen.

Monique: It's that redhead, isn't it?

I stopped walking and stared at her, feeling my heart beat faster, and I tried very hard to pretend that I didn't understand what she was saying.

- What are you talking about?

Monique: The reason for your bad mood, your lack of concentration in class, and the horrible words you said to me earlier, the redhead is your girlfriend, I saw it very well when she saw the two of us and it was like she was being stabbed in the back, I know a woman in love from afar, for I am one.

“You're crazier than I thought.

Monique: Crazy about you, and I want to make it clear that I'm not one to give up that easily.

“It's really stupid to fight for someone you'll never have.

Monique: Being with you seemed impossible, however you didn't think twice when I went to your house and opened my legs for you, and then when you took me to the motel, do you really think it's impossible this time teacher? Never underestimate a woman.

She left wiggling that ass, and I immediately thought of Celine, she also liked to use those words, and I knew that I really shouldn't underestimate a determined woman, but I would never give up Celine to be with Monique, that wouldn't to happen.

When I got home, the first thing I did was cross the street and follow Celine.

"Can you open it for me please?"

Doorman: You came to see Ms. Celine?

"Yes, who else could it be?"

Doorman: I'm sorry, but I received orders from her not to allow you entry.

- Are you serious?

Doorman: Yes, why would I make that up?

The irony in the doorman's voice made it clear that he didn't like the way I spoke, and he was right, I was being extremely arrogant.

"I'm sorry for the stress, can you at least call and let her know I want to talk to her?"

Doorman: She also asked not to call if it was you.

I stared at the doorman feeling like a complete loser, but eventually I accepted defeat and went home.

I took the cell phone out of my pocket and called the only person who could help me and who, regardless of anything, would not refuse my calls.

Karen: I shouldn't be answering you.

— Apparently, Celine already talked to you.

Karen: What do you want Kyle?

— I want to talk to Celine, but she doesn't answer and has barred my entrance to the condominium.

Karen: And rightly so, man? You got a hard-on in the middle of university with a whore Celine hates, and you didn't even remember that you're a committed man now? This time I can't defend you Kyle.

— I don't want defense, I just want Celine to listen to me.

Karen: She won't listen, and you can consider yourself a single man, dead end for you.

- Like this? Did she tell you that? Are you serious?

Karen: I'm going to hang up Kyle.

"Karen, we're friends, you're not going to hang up without explaining this to me, are you?"

Karen: Celine is my friend, you lost that position when you were a son of a bitch to her, now we are two strangers, and I don't want Celine to suffer for a man who doesn't respect the woman she is, and doesn't call me more kyle.

She hung up, and I was staring at the phone screen like a complete idiot who had lost his girlfriend.

- Single! I am single!

Saying that out loud made me depressed, and worse, it totally freaked me out.
