My Obsessive Ex

Chapter One - The Woman In The Dress

Laura's POV

"Fiancee?" Maya raised a brow at him. The smile on her face had disappeared and was now replaced with a look of utter confusion. She stood in front of us, her hands were carefully placed on her hips.

Standing in front was Kendrick's ex. She had approached me and Kendrick while we were having dinner at a restaurant. Some few minutes ago, she had invited us to her wedding and thereafter Kendrick had introduced me as his Fiancee.

I sneaked a glance at Kendrick, trying to read his expression. I watched him adjust his posture on the chair. He flashed me a warm smile which left me utterly curious.

Kendrick nodded his head in response to her question, he grabbed my hand and squeezed it tight. "Yes, we are getting married in two months." He said.

This was not some sort of competition between him and his ex, was it? The last thing I wanted to be was some pawn in the game of two angry exes.

"What?" Maya gasped loudly in shock, she took a few steps backward, stunned at Kendrick's statement. I watched her clench her fist tight and scoff at us or maybe at me because she now had her eyes fixated on me.

"Yeah, you heard me right. We both love each other and can not wait to spend the rest of our lives together. I want to grow old with her and take good care of her." Kendrick sneaked a glance at me, he flashed me a warm smile which I hastily returned.

I felt uneasy. Kendrick looked happy for Maya about her marriage but it was the other way round for her, her gaze alone could kill. I watched her roll her eyes at the both of us before comforting herself. "Well then, I wish you both a happy married life." Without waiting for our response, she turned around and began to walk away.

I sighed in relief once she was out of our sight. Her presence made me feel extremely uncomfortable, Kendrick on the other hand did not even seem to care at all. His eyes returned back to the screen of his phone.

We were on a date yet all Kendrick had done was focus on his phone, that asides. Our date just got ruined by his ex yet he had not even thought of apologizing to me or better still, an explanation would work fine.

"Who is she?" I asked with a stern look on my face.

I heard Kendrick mutter something under his breath before replying me. "Chill out, she is just my ex girlfriend. We have not seen each other in a really long while." He replied with a slight shrug.
