Sherry showed an entirely different side of her. This left Jeremy stunned, but only for a while as he
found the new Sherry more amusing than infuriating.
"Let me make something clear," she said. "I'm no longer that kind-hearted girl who lets herself be
tricked and manipulated by others. This time—this time, if you think that you can keep fooling around
with me, I will fight back!"
Sherry was shouting at Jeremy, enraged and overflowing with emotion.
Her eyes were flaring with anger, but he didn't notice any of this.
Even with all this anger being thrown at him, Jeremy smirked as if amused by Sherry's words.
"Are you laughing? This is not a joke!" Seeing him unaffected by anything she said left her speechless.
"Sure, I understand." Jeremy suddenly reached out and rubbed her hair. There was a sense of intimacy
there but Sherry didn't realize it due to her anger.
"Don't touch me!" she shouted, slapping his hand away.
She then took her phone and stormed out of the room.
Sherry used to be a kind and tender girl, never getting angry and just laughing everything off. The
person who faced Jeremy today wasn't that person; she was tougher, hardened by her past and
prepared to fight back.
Sherry didn't say a single word during dinner. It was clear that she was still very angry at Jeremy.
That night, before sleeping, Jeremy entered her room.
"Get out now!" shouted Sherry. "You're not allowed here!" She started pushing him out the door.
"There's only one bedroom in this apartment. Where do you expect me to sleep?" chimed Jeremy. He
moved closer, causing her to take a step back.
"Get out and sleep on the sofa." She pushed him out again; this time much harder.
"Stop this Sherry. I have to work early tomorrow and I'm not going to get a good night's sleep on the
sofa." He pushed her arm away and tried to go inside.
"I do not want to deal with you tonight Jeremy. Now, get the hell out of my room!" Sherry started hitting
Jeremy's hand that he was using to push his way inside.
As his hand started to redden because of the constant hits, he finally stopped.
"Okay!" he suddenly said. "I can see you'll be like this for a while. I already told you that I'd buy you a
new phone."
"I don't want a new phone, Jeremy. I want the phone I have now. Can you fix that?" Jeremy had a blank
look on his face.
"Yeah, I didn't think so. Now get out!" said Sherry. With all her strength, she pushed him out the room
again.
She slammed the door right at his face. He tried opening the door again but she already locked it.
Jeremy stared at the door for a few seconds. He couldn't help but laugh at this new version of Sherry.
He never thought she could be like that—screaming and pushing, full of anger.
After preparing for bed, she removed the phone card from her broken phone.
With her phone completely soaked, she thought to herself if Jeremy could actually be crazy. Ever since
she knew him, he always caused trouble for her.
Her day was going great. Her client loved the plans she prepared. She even became the department
manager for the advertising department. Her mood was great all day until Jeremy came around.
She was tired from everything that happened today so she just threw herself on her bed and tried to
sleep. Although in her mind, all she could think about was how she could never forgive Jeremy.
"He'll pay for everything," she muttered to herself.
She was about to fall asleep when she felt the other side of the bed move.
But she was so tired and sleepy that she couldn't open her eyes anymore so she just drifted off to
sleep.
The next morning, the sun penetrated through the clouds to illuminate the city covered with a smooth
white haze.
As the light enters her room, it woke Sherry up. She felt rejuvenated after a good night's sleep.
She tried to roll over her bed when she felt something resting on her waist.
She froze in a panic and almost called out for Jeremy when she turned and noticed that it was him that
was sleeping comfortably beside her.
"You!!" she screamed. Sherry was furious. Her scream woke him up.
Jeremy slowly opened his eyes to see Sherry glaring at him. He broke out a big smile and said, "Good
morning!"
She got up from bed and realized he'd been sleeping beside her the entire time.
"How the hell did you get in here?!" she asked. 'I knew I locked the door from inside. He couldn't come
in even if he had the key,' she thought to herself.
Jeremy held her tightly and said, "I have my ways."
"Let me go! I need to get to work!" She was struggling to get away from him so she kicked him off the
bed and away from her.
Jeremy thought to himself that the night was too short. He wanted to hold onto her longer.
But he needed to get to work too, so he took his clothes and went to take a shower.
Sherry was preparing her clothes when she noticed the open window beside the wardrobe.
She realized that she left the window unlocked and half opened. This was how Jeremy got inside the
room.
That was very reckless of him, she thought to herself. Even though the roof outside their window wasn't
very high, it was still dangerous.
