The Male Lead's Childhood Friend

When the door to my room opened, I was expecting Jeremy to come in. But the person who I least expected came thru the door.

"Hello, Anastasia." Angelika said with an angelic smile.

"Angelika?" I was filled with surprise. "Why are you here?"

"I would like to talk to you, if I may?" Angelika was still wearing her pretty smile that can make any man fall for her.

'You ask if you can talk to me, when you are here in my house and in my room uninvited.' I thought. 'You have such a thick face Angelika.' I curse her inwardly.

I felt irritated that she just came to visit uninvited, and to my own house at that. I do not know where does she get that awful confidence of hers, as if she can do anything she pleases and she can get away with it.

"I do not wish to talk to you Angelika." I said, not hiding my disp.l.e.a.s.u.r.e of her. "And we do not have anything to talk about in the first place. So just leave." I point my finger at the open door.

"Do not worry Anastasia, this will be quick." Angelika replied. This just made me angrier. How can she have the nerve to feel so high and mighty, and even in my own house.

"I do not wish to hear any of what you are going to say." I said with seethed anger.

"Tell me why, then." Angelika said. "Why did you have to return?"

"What are you talking about?" I said with irritation. "I live here, of course I am bound to return to my own home."

"Yes, I thought so." Angelika replied.

"Then now that is answered, please leave." I said. I stood up, disregarding the pain in my ankle and pulled her out of my room towards the stairs.

"I will leave, if you promise me one thing." Angelika pulled her hand away from my grip, her angelic smile was now replaced with a more serious look. "Keep away from Jeremy. He. Is. Mine." She said as if she own him. Her angelic face was replaced with a sinister look.

I was taken aback looking at the difference of the Angelika I know and this one before me. I am guessing she is showing her true self right now.

'As I thought, she is hiding her true self that is opposite with her angelic image.' I thought. 'And in my previous life, she made me look like a villain to everyone.' I grab the bed sheets hard, feeling my anger rising.

"Last thing I heard from Jeremy, you are nothing to him." I do not want to be defeated by this b*tch that ruined me in my previous life. I also want to rub her sore spot. "And to think that Jeremy wants to get back to me. Of course, my father did not agree, after what he did with breaking our engagement. But he was willing to fight to gain my approval once again."

I can see Angelika's face getting bitter with my words. This made me feel triumphant, even if it was just a little. I decided to make her feel even more pissed off.

"In fact, he just confessed to me yesterday." I said with a smirk on my face. "Jeremy told me he loves me, and is willing to wait for me."

My words was Angelika's last straw. She snapped with anger, her face contorting with rage.

"NO! That cannot be true." Angelika shouted. "He should be mine. I stole him from you, I should be the one having your place by his side!"

Angelika's words startled me. "What do you mean that you stole my place?" I asked with pure curiosity.

Angelika's words were ambiguous, but there was some hint that I cannot decipher on what it could mean.

"Angelika? Why are you here?" I heard Jeremy's voice.

"Jeremy?" When I looked down, I saw Jeremy was at the foot of the stairs.

That was when I saw Angelika switched back to her angelic face. I felt something was about to happened, and it was something not good. She was just standing by the flight of stairs, I saw her inching her way in a falling position.

'Oh no you don't, you white lotus b*tch.' I thought to myself.

I knew what Angelika was about to do based on the experience of my of past life. She had tainted my image on Jeremy so many times since college. And because my image was so broken, I thought of being even more villainous if that is what it takes to get her away from Jeremy's side. I never thought that her way of things will gain even more sympathy from Jeremy, and they got closer even more.

'I will never make the same mistakes as in my previous life.' I thought.

I pulled her out of the way from falling, but in the process I was the one that was out of balance. I felt my body falling down the stairs.

"ANA!" I hear Jeremy scream out loud.

I closed my eyes expecting to feel pain from my body's impact was I fall down the stairs, but to my surprise I did not feel any. What I felt was something warm enveloping my body. I opened my eyes slowly and saw Jeremy cradling me safely in his arms.

"Are you okay, Ana?" Jeremy said with a worried face. "You gave me a startle. I thought my heart would leap out of my c.h.e.s.t."

"J-Jeremy? Thank you." I said with gratitude, but then I felt a sharp pain on my ankle. "Ahhh." I gasped in pain.

"What is it Ana? Where does it hurt?" Jeremy asked with a worried tone.

"M-My foot." I replied in a short sentence. I cannot focus on speaking because of the pain I was feeling. 'I think I twisted my sprained ankle when I fell.' I thought, crunching my face in pain.

"You, what did you do?!" Jeremy shouted in anger.

"I-I did not do anything."Angelica was getting fl.u.s.tered with the sudden change of events. "It was Anastasia who was pushing me away. I was the one who would have fallen from the stairs." She tried to reason out.

"Do you think I am blind?!" Jeremy was shouting in rage. "Anastasia was the one that fell and not you, and you want to pin the blame on her?"

"R-Really Jeremy, I did not do anything." Angelika took a step towards Jeremy and was about to lay a hand on him. "It was only an accident. Why don't we take Anastasia to the doctor, okay? I will accompany you."

"Do not touch me!" Jeremy slapped Angelika's hand that was inching close to him. "Get out of here now! I do not want to ever see your face again."

"J-Jeremy, don't do this to me." Angelika's voice felt hurt.

It was unfortunate that I was not able to see her expression now because of the pain I was feeling. I felt I will lose consciousness any minute now because of the pain.

"Nana, please escort this woman out." Jeremy said. I did not realize that Nana was standing at the bottom of the stairs.

"Y-Yes sir Jeremy." Nana replied.

"Jeremy, please don't do this… please." Angelika grabbed Jeremy's arm but he pulled away in an instant.

"If ever I knew that you pushed Ana today, I swear to God I will make you pay." Jeremy gritted his teeth.

I was not able to hold on and closed my eyes because of the pain I was feeling.

"Ana…ANA!" Jeremy calling my name was the last thing I heard before I closed my eyes.
