"Next Timeline"

After the graduation ceremony I saw two figures part thier ways from the crowd. I excused myself to my parents and followed where they're heeded.

I felt my eyes heat up while I watch both of my best friends from afar. I was afraid of what I will hear if I finally reach near thier place. We were on the rooftop and I quietly hid behind a bunch of barrels.

I know being an eavesdrop isn't good but I just can't help my curiosity. It's bugging me and there's something in me that pushed me on this state.

"So why are we here again?" I heard Faith's voice asked as the sounds of thier footsteps started to stop.

"I like you Faith." Tears started to escape from my eyes as I heard those words uttered by Ern. The man I ever love. The only man I spent a lot of time in my whole life just confessed to my best friend.

"Uh-uh-m" Faith was cut off by Ern's voice.

"Let's be together. I know we feel the same." My eyes widened when I took a peek on thier direction.

I saw Faith's arm's wrapped around Ern's waist, while she was inside Ern's warm embrace.

I covered my mouth to take a hold of my sobs, not to be caught and face a shame. As soon as I heard thier footsteps go away I dropped myself on the floor and started to wail out. While I continued to shed in tears a thought suddenly came up to my head.

I remembered my parents gave me an offer to transfer on a different university,f for better experience of academic matters.

After I got tired from weeping, I took a deep breath and composed myself. I wiped off the tears on my cheek's and lift myself up.

On that moment I was determined to accept my parents offer and decided to take my senior year's on different university. Wherein mine and my best friend's paths wouldn't collide. It would be a great opportunity for me to move on and carry on.

I lift my chin and head up before I finally walked out from the rooftop and went back to where I left my parents waiting.

A year passed and things were going out well for me. Now I'm currently opening presents I've accepted on my birthday part.

"Do you like my gift?" I heard a man's voice questioned me as I finished unboxing the gift he gave.

"I love it, Thank You." I gave him a sweet smile and leaned over to give him a hug.

"You hug so tight, I can't breathe." I immediately backed off to give him space and air.

"Nah just kidding." I heard him chuckle which made me slightly spank his arm.

"Anyways, I have one more thing for you." I have him a questioning look and as if on cue he guided our way to the veranda. We both sat on the hammock and he leaned out to reach the guitar.

I felt my cheeks heat up as I heard him sing with his admirable voice. I looked away when his gaze landed on mine when he ended the song, but I felt reach out for my chin and brought my sight back to his.

"Look Anchel, It's been a while and it's time for me to confess my feeling's for you before anyone else get's in the way. I like you, ever since we've met. It's just that you were so idyllic and I felt enlightened when you're around. I'm happy that you came into my life and I hope you will consider my feeling's." My cheeks flushed as I hear him utter those words. A sweet smile drew on my lips and delight was plastered on his face as I nodded as a sign of acceptance.
