You'll Fall For Me, Today or tomorrow

With that said, Matthew turned around and left.

Over the next few days, Clarissa was still in a daze. The sudden change felt surreal to her until she realized the differences. Since then, no one ordered food delivery to her doorstep. The man no longer showed up unexpectedly in front of her house or pestered her unceasingly. Only then did it struck her that everything was over indeed.

“Clarissa?”

Beside the woman, Justin called out to her as she stared into space.

His voice broke Clarissa out of her trance. Embarrassed, she gave him a half-smile.

Rubbing the bridge of her nose, she stood up and said apologetically, “I’m sorry, director. I need to go to the restroom.”

Justin nodded in acknowledgment, and she walked out of the production room to freshen up.

After pulling herself together, she came back and saw Justin puffing away at a cigarette outside the production room.

“Director, I’m sorry about…”

Justin gave her a reassuring smile. “It’s okay. I can tell that you’re not your usual self these days. Did you fight with Matt?”

Pressing her lips together, Clarissa shook her head. Her expression fell right away.

“We broke up.”

In disbelief, Justin raised his brows at her words.

She gave him a firm nod. “It’s true. I haven’t seen him for some time. I’ll go back to my hometown when everything in D City is settled.”

Justin could not believe his ears.

After a moment of silence, he said, “Maybe it’s not such a bad thing.”

Clarissa gave him a rueful smile upon hearing that. The two then sauntered to the other side and took a seat.

“Actually, Matt really likes you. Is there a misunderstanding between you and him?”

“No, it’s not because of that. I’ve already found out what happened previously.”

“Why did you still break up with him then?”

The woman fell silent at his question.

“It’s alright if you’re not comfortable talking about it.”

“No.” Pausing briefly, she continued, “I just feel that he and I are worlds apart. To be honest, I’m really afraid of losing the person I love. If I know that it’s not going to work out between us, I’d rather let it go. I’m so sick of being dumped. As the saying goes, ‘once bitten, twice shy.’ I never want to go through the same feeling again, so it’s better not to get into a relationship if there’s a risk of getting my heart broken again. You might find it hard to understand, but that’s one thing I can’t get over with.”
