Chapter Twelve
“Am I really awake?” that’s the only question I keep on asking Jed. “For the last time, yes you are very awake” he snaps. I think he was pissed off because I keep on asking him the same thing. Well, the Racetrack Rider Community is very amazing; this place is like covered by the forest.
“I’m sorry, I just you know, it’s like we’re on the same dimension of the world. This place is so peaceful and private” I sigh. “Well, I can’t argue with that. Rainer’s the owner of this community; he is a car racer but sometimes motocross racer. The members of this community are exclusive people, Rainer wants this community to be private for the, members” he explains.
So the member of the community is just private or exclusive people? Which means “Are you a member of this community?” I ask. He exhale sharply and said “We’re already here and to your question, yes I am a member in this community” after that, he unlock the car door and climb out from the car. At first I thought he will be gentlemen again but I was wrong.
“I will never open your door, so come out now!” he spats. I glare at him and do as he said. “This is the Rider Community Restaurant, the other members are already here and I just want to let you know that the members of this community are exclusive for boys and if you see some girls well then maybe it’s the member’s sister or wife or girlfriend. Now, before we get inside is there anything you want to ask?” Jed looks at me with frustrating eyes. “Why are you so grumpy today?” I ask not looking at him.
He didn’t respond, instead he open the Rider Community Restaurant and then he’s gone. As for me I don’t want to fight with him so I follow his way carefully but fast.
“Here comes the newlywed” a guy with red hair named Josh announces. They were all wearing a racetrack uniform and they have a nameplate at the left top corner of their rider jackets. “So, you are Cheska, Nathan was right you are really beautiful” a guy named Shane smiles at me. “Nathan keeps on bragging at us about your wife Jed, and I think he has his eyes on Cheska” a guy named Logan interrupts. “I hope he’ll crash” Jed scoffs.
Then the door opens, I look at the man who is so young and has a serious look he’s Rainer the owner of the community. “Happy Birthday Bro, you’re no longer young” Jed teases. “Whatever you man, why did you come here? You didn’t invite us to your wedding and you just showed up like that?” Rainer smirks.
“Don’t question me about that man besides it’s a rush wedding and you know what I mean” Jed said indicating to close the subject about our marriage. I am still standing at the side of the door like a statue; Jed on the other hand didn’t look at me again.
“By the way, Jed there is someone who ones to congratulate you about your wedding” a guy named Kyle said while he signal his hand to the one he’s referring to and it was Rose!
“I’ve seen your wedding but only on television, by the way congratulations” Rose said then she held her hand to Jed for a handshake. I’ve never been jealous before because my parents and my brother keeps on giving me what I want, but when Jed accepted the handshake all I wanted is to cry and run as far as I could.
To calm myself I try to play cool and advised myself to give a space between Jed and me. Now, that’s what you get for being a fool Cheska, you totally forget about the 6 months contract!
Again I sigh but I was surprised by a man who just pop beside me. “Hi Cheska, why are you here and not with your husband?” “Noah?” I ask confusingly. “Yes and you’re Cheska right?” “Yes, why are you here?” I mutter. “I notice that you choose to be alone than to be with Jed, are you jealous?” he smirks. “Uh-oh? No, why would I be jealous and besides if it wasn’t because of me, maybe those two will end up being together so I don’t have the right to get jealous”
“I see” I hop out from my chair when I heard a strange voice at behind me and the most awkward scene is that he looks like Noah, he’s like the replica. “Who are you?” I ask awkwardly. “I’m Jonah, Noah’s twin and I’m sorry if I surprise you. You two seem kind to have some serious conversation” he smirks and sits on the other side beside me.
“So as far as I heard, you won’t oblige if they will be together while you and Jed will divorce?” Jonah asks, I think for one minute about his question but for me to face the reality, I nod yes.
“We have to go to my house” Jed interrupts behind me. The twins look at me with sympathy but I just smile at them with reassurance that I’m okay. I didn’t bother to look at Jed; instead I walk directly to his car.
Before Jed step outside the Rider Community Restaurant, I saw him and Rose smile and hug each other, Rose is like a princess wearing the Rider’s uniform for girls, I think. Then after that, Jed walks slowly to the car. “All the Community members have their own house here” he explains. He starts the engine and off we go to his so called house.
I just nod, his mood is now happy. Well, he saw his true love!
My subconscious sighs with sympathy too.
