I Will Wait For You 100 Years - Hmong Sad Love Story

Chapter 21: I Won't Let This Happen Again

As I got back to Uncle Foom's house. He looked at me weirdly. "Son, where did you go today?" Uncle Foom asked. "I went to help Ci farm today, uncle." I lied. "Don't lie to me son, Ci couldn't find you this whole day. She even came over and looked for you." Uncle Foom says. "Uhh- well I just went to visit a farm. That's all." I said back feeling nervous. "Alright then, you seem tired. You should go rest." Uncle Foom says. "Alright Uncle Foom." I said as I went to sleep. I opened my eyes and noticed that I was sleeping in a farmhouse as I looked around and saw Npaim picking up flowers in the distance. I got up and looked at her. "Why is she so beautiful and cute." I asked myself. Npaim then walks to where I was and lays her flowers down. She then picks up one of the flowers and hands it to me. "This one is for you." She says as a wide smile flashed across her face. "I don't want flowers." I say. Npaim's eyes widen and give me a confused look. "Huh, what do you want then?" Npaim asked. I smiled at her before pinning her down. "All I want is you, Npaim." I said, still smiling at her. She smiles back and touches my lips with her soft and warm fingers. Just then, I woke up hearing Uncle Foom on the phone with someone. I quietly sneak and listen to what Uncle Foom was talking about and who he was talking to. I listened closely to his conversation. "Yes, I think he's been followed by his old girlfriend. If this goes on, he won't be able to make it back to you two so I have to stop this." Uncle Foom says. After hearing this. My heart dropped. I was so shocked and worried. "No uncle! She's my life! I won't let you take her away from me!" I yelled as I interrupted their conversation. Uncle Foom then turned to me and said. "Son, me and your parents are only trying to save you. We understand that you and Npaim love each other very much but she is a ghost now and she cannot be with you." Uncle Foom says. "I tried to get rid of her off my mind but now that I'm back with her, I won't let any of you separate us. We already got separated once and I won't let it happen again." I said as I ran out of the house. "Kub! Kub!" Uncle Foom yells as I run out of the house not caring to look back. I need to go see Npaim now before Uncle Foom does anything. "Npaim!" I yelled as I approached the farm where me and Npaim would meet. "Kub! Over here!" Npaim screamed back. Npaim was sitting inside the farmhouse making a flower hat. I ran to her and said. "Npaim! They are trying to separate us! You gotta hurry and take me, now!" I say. Npaim looked at me confused as she stood up and put her arms on my forehead. "Kub, are you ok?" Npaim says. "We don't have time for this, Npaim! Hurry up and kill me and take me with you so they won't be able to separate us! You want me right? We promised to be together!" I yelled. Npaim seems confused. Just then, I heard Uncle Foom and Blong yelling out my name from the distance. "Oh no, they're here! Quick let's run!" I screamed as I took Npaim's hand and ran. As I ran with Npaim, I felt my vision getting blurry and blurry. Just then, my eyes opened and I was on a bed. I looked in front of me and noticed Uncle Foom was doing his shaman stuff. He was sitting on the chair shaking his body. I knew he was trying to separate me and Npaim so I panicked and tried to stop it but my hand was tied up with a rope attached to one of the wooden cot of the bed. I tried to untie it but then Ci and Blong tried to stop me and held me tight. "WHAT ARE YOU TWO DOING?!?!" I yelled at them. "STOP! UNCLE FOOM IS ONLY TRYING TO FIX YOU!" Blong says. "NO HE IS NOT! HE IS TRYING TO SEPARATE ME AND NPAIM!" I yelled back. Just then, I heard Npaim yelling my name from outside. It was dark. "Kub!" Npaim screamed. "BLONG, UNTIE ME RIGHT NOW!" I yelled as loud and aggressive as I could. Seeing me like this, Blong felt scared and did as I said. After Blong untied me. I ran out the door as fast as I could. As I got outside, I saw Uncle Foom standing in front of the house a couple of meters away. "How did Uncle Foom get out here so fast?" I asked myself. I then saw Npaim standing a couple of yards away from Uncle Foom. She was trying to come near me but there was an invisible barrier that wouldn't let her pass. "Kub!" Npaim screamed.
