His Beautiful Addiction

Oh well, that was good. At least I wouldn't have to bother about him punishing me anymore.

Tiana thought, and she resumed munching on her food.

By the time Nicklaus came back, she was lying on the couch and watching Netflix.

It was past ten in the night and the day had been very stressful, yet she had the strength to watch Netflix?

Nicklaus thought as he walked past her to the fridge; he took out a bottle of water from it; opening the bottle of pills, he poured some on his hand and swallowed, then drank some water.

Tiana's gaze shifted from the TV to him; he had his back facing her and his head was low as he stared at something in his hand. He had a strange feeling around him, a feeling of loneliness. The more she stared at him, the more distinct the feeling became; and she realized he looked so lonely.

Nicklaus stared at the bottle for a moment before closing the fridge and walking towards his room. He was tempted to look at her, but he forced his eyes not to.

Tiana watched him enter the room, and for the first time ever, she felt pity for him. Now she thought about it, he had no friends, no family; he talked to no-one; he didn't go for parties, neither did he have anything fun in his life, just work! That must be one hell of a lonely life.

She thought. But instantly, she kicked herself out of those thoughts;

Why was she feeling pity for him? He was a very terrible person; he deserved nothing good. How would he have friends when he had scared them all away with his icy behavior?

She rolled her eyes and continued watching the show she was watching earlier, kicking Nicklaus out of her thoughts.

The next day was Sunday, Tiana wondered why they would see the client on a Sunday, but she didn't ask questions, and she made sure to wake up early. When she stepped out of her room, Nicklaus was not yet out, so she walked to the glass wall which showed the view of the city and stood there, gazing outside.

She wished Nicklaus would let her go out and see the city. She really wanted to but she didn't want to ask him.

She heard some sound, and she turned around and saw Nicklaus and her brows creased; he was still wearing casual clothes, didn't he say they would see a client today?

She wondered as she stared at him; he glanced at her briefly before sitting down on one of the sofas in the living room.

''Why are you all dressed, are you going somewhere?''

He turned to her with a blank expression. Tiana's brows creased;

Are you asking me that? She mumbled to herself.

Wasn't he the one who told her they would meet with someone today?

''You said we will see a client? ''

She replied with a calm voice and Nicklaus turned to the television;

''Oh, that is in the evening. ''

He said nonchalantly, turning the television on.

Tiana felt like punching him in the guts.

They were going out in the evening, and he made her wake up so early! She cussed in her mind, but she did well not to utter a word. Her eyes stared daggers at him as she gritted her teeth, but then she forced a smile;

''Okay, I'll change and wait till evening then. ''

She said and turned to her room, dragging her feet in and shutting the door behind her. She angrily pulled off her clothes and changed into casual clothes, she didn't like wearing bras so she pulled that off too.

She did not eat that morning thinking they were going out, but now that they weren't, she would just order something to eat. After making her orders, she lay on her bed and logged into Instagram.

It's been long since she last logged in; after she broke up with Adrian, she had not been on Instagram; but now she was in London, she figured she should post a picture.

As soon as she logged in, she saw a bunch of new updates from friends, she scrolled down more but found nothing on Adrian; her heartbeat against her chest.

Did he block her from seeing his posts? She wondered and quickly searched his name up, but she didn't find his profile. Her heart slammed against her chest, and she sat upright, sweat gathering on her forehead.

Right, Nicklaus scared him away, but there was nothing bad in being friends on Instagram, was there?

She wondered as tears gathered in her eyes, the more she thought about it, the more her anger grew for Nicklaus. She wondered what he must have done to him to make him cut her out of his life like that.

Quickly, she created a new Instagram profile and searched his name up and it appeared immediately;

So he blocked me…

Tiana felt her throat squeeze; she suddenly started having a hammering headache, tears gathering in her eyes. She really didn't want to cry anymore, but the feeling at that moment was so overwhelming that she couldn't control her emotions. Tears poured from her eyes.

She tapped on his profile and it opened; he had changed his profile picture from the last one, the present one was him on a lab coat; there was a beautiful smile on his face. He looked strikingly handsome in the white coat. Tiana thought as she wiped her eyes with the back of her hand.

She scrolled down his pictures slowly; watching everyone like it was a movie.

Most of the pictures were those with his colleagues and he looked very happy.

Then her eyes caught a picture, and her hands froze.

It was a picture of him with a very beautiful woman; she had a babyish face, and she was also wearing a lab coat. He had his hands around her waists and their faces were inches apart from each other.

Tiana's hairs stood upright on her skin and her nose refused to take in air.

But what made her almost faint was the tag on the post;

'My beautiful moon, is your girlfriend any more adorable?'
