The General Who Hates Me

She sat on the sand and downed the bottle in her right hand. Then she shouted at the top of her lungs, "Ahhhhhhhhhhhh…" 

"Ahhhhhhh…"

"Ahhhhhhh…"

Jeru looked around and let out a sigh of relief when he saw that no one was around. It was already midnight, and usually, no one came to the beachfront at this hour. Hence, the place was deserted. 

"What"s this? Does she plan to shout all night long?" he mused as he observed Thea, who kept on drinking the alcohol directly from the bottle. He presumed that Zach came clear with Thea about his feelings during that talk because the two looked serious then.

He let out a long, deep sigh and kept watching her. Right now, he was seeing himself in Thea, because that was exactly what he did when Keira told him that she already had a boyfriend, and it was none other than Zach-the man whom he often was compared with, the person whom he often lost to at the Military Academy.

Jeru smirked, even when it came to heart matters, he still failed and lost to Zach. 

Then he recalled how he got drunk that night when he found out about Zach and Keira. He sat alone at his balcony and drowned himself in alcohol. He felt dejected and broken. He was so devastated, he was not able to face reality back then. He was sure that the same was now happening with Thea. She might be feeling the same or even worse than him.

Moreover, she and Zach had practically grown up together, her attachment to him must have been really strong. The only difference in their situation was that Thea and Zach had been in a relations.h.i.+p earlier, while Keira had been honest with him from the start- she told him that she only saw him as a friend. Compared to him, Thea"s wound was deeper.

Thea was shouting to dissipate her heartache and frustration, while Jeru did not shout but punched the table instead until he bled. So he somehow understood Thea"s feelings. 

"Stupiddddd! Thea, why are you so stupid!!! Very stupid! A very stupid woman!!!" Thea screamed as she gulped down another mouthful of alcohol, and helplessly stared at the sea.

While Jeru was witnessing Thea"s broken state, he blew some air on his own forehead. 

"Why do I feel as if I"m a stalker, following her and watching her from a distance?" he irritably mused as he took out his mobile phone from his pocket. He should ask his men to look after Thea instead.

But for some unknown reason, he put his phone back in his pocket, as he stared at Thea and let out a long, deep sigh again. He helplessly shook his head and thought, "Isn"t she cold?" seeing that Thea was wearing a backless gown.

"She looks so pitiful right now," he muttered.

"Ahhhhhh!!! It hurts! It hurts so much!" Thea screamed and started crying even harder. She was hurt, really hurt up to the depths of her heart. The pain was agonizing, and it was going to take her some time to redeem herself from this agony. 

The realization that there was no hope for her to be with Zach again was killing her. She knew Zach so well and could read every emotion on his face. She could read him through his eyes. 

And tonight, by what she saw in his eyes and on his face, she just knew that those eyes, that heart no longer belonged to her. His affection was centered at Keira now. 

His every action screamed of his love and affection towards Keira. Thea had no place in his heart. It was painful, it hurt her... It hurt like h.e.l.l.

She was crying hard as she hit her chest several times. She felt she was lacking air to breathe...

She drank more and hissed when she realized that the bottle was already empty. She opened the second one. She wanted to get drunk, so she"ll be wasted and would not feel the pain once she pa.s.sed out.

She was already hiccupping, and her face flushed as she started mumbling "Wow… Look at those waves! They are so beautiful, they know how not to stay in one place and keep moving, they know how to not get stuck at one beach and move on." 

Thea stood up and walked towards the sea, she was practically drunk-walking already.

"What the h.e.l.l?!" Jeru cursed when he saw Thea walking towards the ocean. "Does she plan to drown and kill herself?" he thought, annoyed as he ran towards Thea.

"Stop!" Jeru shouted, but it seemed that Thea was oblivious of his presence as she continued to walk to the ocean.

Thea, on the other hand, could not hear anything but the sound of the sea waves. The water was cold, and it felt good on her feet. She walked a little forward so the waves could reach her knees.

How she wished to be completely numb. She wanted to scream again, with the roaring waves accompanying her. She wanted to scream as loud as the sound of waves, that were gently slamming on her knees were.

She was lost in her thoughts and opened her arms wide. She closed her eyes and was about to scream when she felt a hand pulling her arm.

"Are you crazy? What are you thinking of doing?! Are you that fickle-minded to take your life simply because you are broken-hearted? Does your world revolve merely around Zach?" Jeru furiously shouted at Thea that left her open-mouthed with wide eyes, gaping at him in bewilderment.

"What is wrong with this man?" she mused as she scanned Jeru"s gloomy face. She abruptly pulled her hand from his grip and yelled, "Leave me alone!" She wanted to release her frustration and anger and scream to her heart"s content, but this man was interrupting her.

"No!" Jeru shouted as he pulled her back. By this time, the alcohol she had drunk started to kick in, and Thea could feel her world swirling around, and her stomach felt weird. 

She felt as if her stomach was turning upside down. Jeru was pulling her trying to take her out of the water. But Thea was pulling back to get free from his hold. She was feeling very weird.

Jeru sighed and in one swift move finally, pulled Thea into his arms. However, Thea suddenly threw up on Jeru"s suit.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www.webnovel.com for visiting.

Jeru cursed as he got wind of the gross smell of Thea"s vomit on his suit. At the same time, he felt Thea"s weight on him.

"What the h.e.l.l?" he mumbled, seeing that Thea had pa.s.sed out. He had no choice but to carry Thea back to the hotel.
