I was at the school, and I actually saw Zayne walking, but we didn't greet each other or even talk. I still remember our talk from yesterday.

"Oy, bakit parang cold kayo sa isa't isa?" Kylie asked. But I just smiled. Even our friends are asking me but, I didn't utter a word, I just answered them with a smile.

We were lining up now to get our gowns and other things for tomorrow.
And after that, we are now walking towards the gate. And we saw Savannah waiting at the gate. Zayne was actually behind us, and Savannah runs to him and kiss him in the cheeks, I look away, trying to stop my tears from showing.

Zayne and Savannah walk in front of us, and he was looking at me, his eyes are full of pain.... Then my friends ask me if I'm okay and I assure them that I was fine.

As I got home, I saw my brother and he greeted me with a smile, I smiled back and just went straight to my bedroom.

I saw my sister looking sad. I was also sad to see her like that. I knew that she already talked to Zayne yesterday.

~~Flashback
I was at my office when I heard someone was looking for me. And it turns out to be my sister. She looked like she cried so I quickly went to her and bring her to my office.

"What happened?" I asked. Then she cried to me.

"I talked to Zayne. I'm letting him go." She said.

"I didn't want to do it but....I have no choice" she's sobbing and it hurts me to see her like this

"When he hugs me, I don't want to escape from his arms..But I have to.."

"I love him. I really do"

"But why does this need to happen?"

I just let her say what she wants, bring out her feelings and pain. I hugged her and comfort her. This is the only thing that I can do for her..

I brought her home and go back to my cafe. And when I got home, she was sleeping at her bedroom.

endure this for now Louie. Cry all you want. I'm ready to take you away from this place and start a new life.

I woke up and took a shower. Then I went down, my brother was sitting at the living room.

"Uhmm, I will go at Kylie's house." I said.

"Okay, I'll drive for you" He said. Well, that was nice. We got in the car and drive to Kylie's house..

I went inside the house and saw them at the garden.

"Oh look who's here" Kylie said and hugs me.

"Musta?" Jaxon asked, I smiled. We eat and talk about our memories in highschool, most are happy moments.
And then, their attention went to me..

"What?" I said. They were all looking at me, waiting for me to speak up

"Anong nangyare sa inyo ni Zayne?" Kylie asked, then I sighed

"I told him to stop." I said. I look down

"As in stop na talaga?" Kylie ask again. I nod

"Eh gusto mo ba?" She ask again. That stopped me. I don't want to but....

"I need to do that" I said. In the end, I ended up telling them what happened. I thought I would cry but...I did not.

"Siguro nga, hindi to ung oras para sa inyong dalawa" Jaxon said. Then I smile at him

"Tapos na ung para samin, hindi na kami kailanman magkakaroon ng tamang oras, dahil wala naman talaga." I said. They looked at me.

"Ayoko na din kasi. Puro sakit na lang. He has his fiancee now, he should just focus on her instead of me. His fiancee was hurting because he keeps on ignoring her, his attention was all to me, and that isn't right" I said.

"And it was good right? Tomorrow's the graduation, and I now have the reason to not see him." I said. Then Kylie grab my hands.

"Kausapin ko lang to ha. Enjoy muna kayo diyan" She said and pulled me to her bedroom.

"I know you're hurting, Lou. You don't have to act tough in front of us. We're friends, you can show us your weak side." She said. I don't know why but..my tears suddenly show. I hugged Kylie.

"Cry all you want. We're here for you. We always say that even before you two got close." She said. I was crying again, I thought I won't cry again.

We stayed at her room for a few minutes.

"Okay ka na?" She asks and smile.

"Okay na" I said and tried to smile. I wipe my tears and fix my self. We go back to the garden and saw our friends talking.

"Oy. Ano okay na?" Jaxon said. I smiled at them.

"Okay na....sa ngayon" I said.

"Uwi na din kami Kylie. See you tomorrow guys" Jaxon said. We went to the gate, Sean offered me a ride so I'll go with him. We bid our goodbye to Kylie and went on our way.

"Will Kuya Andre go with you tomorrow?" Sean asked while driving

"Yup, he said he'll be late, but it's okay. As long as he's there" I said. Then I remember what Sean had said to me. That he had a bad hunch about Zayne, he was never wrong...why did I not listen to that?? Even Kuya and Jaxon told me about that. I sighed and just look outside.

After a while, I got home, and my brother was not here. Maybe he was at his house. I just took a shower and went to bed. Tomorrow will be the graduation...I just hope every thing will go well....

I should be happy right?? Graduating highschool is an achievement for me...why am I feeling sad??

It was already 12am, and I still can't sleep. I sit on my bed and stare at nowhere.

This school year has been fun and...tough for me. Especially when Zayne came back....it was a major plot twist in my highschool life as a senior. He made me feel that pain again, he made me feel happy, sad, excited...but in the end...it still goes back to pain..

My friends were the best part that happened to me in Thompson Academy. We shared playful things, happy, sad memories. And I won't forget that. I was so lucky to have friends like them.

So many things that happened, I didn't even got the chance to sink it in myself. It happened so fast, It was....too much for me to handle.....

I stand up and look at my room, this room witness how happy I am with Zayne, and how much I got hurt...because of the same man who hurt me long ago. I took a deep breath and stare outside. I didn't know I would do this right after the big day for us.....it will be okay right???

I stand in front of the drawer, Zayne's letters was there....I get them and put it in my bed.. I start to read it one by one

I love you, Azariah

I was so happy to spend my time with you

I saw you, a beautiful smile was on your face, and I was happy to see that

I love you, Azariah. I can't wait for the day we will be together

I was still thankful that you forgive me and let me talk with you

I'm sorry about yesterday. I really forgot about it. I'm so sorry... But I'll make it up to you. I promise

That was the last letter that I keep, and I still can remember why he forget that........ I gather the letters and hold them..I stand up....

"I should let you go." I said and throw the letters in the bin....

Then I looked at my room again, I saw the teddy bear I won at the amusement park. I still remember how shy he was when he was talking to me, and that was the time when I start to accept him again....

But now, I have to end this..I really have to.

"I love you Zayne..but, there's nothing we can do to be together.."
