Edward and I went to the airport with his sister Eden. Eden is on the phone talking to her husband who they will be with.
He seemed uncomfortable yet excited after some time now. I don't know why but we hung out for some time, cuddled, etc. and his flight was called out. I looked at him for the last time. He was looking sad and...happy?
Oh, right...He's leaving until I graduate. I'll be left alone again. I still have a long way to go...
"Goodbye, I hope you have a great time over there...Send some pictures for me okay? And...Call me if you have time...I-I'll miss you...I promise I'll study hard! I love you" I told him, hugging him for the last time.
He hugged me back. He wasn't saying anything. He's just smiling.
"I'll go now, please take care..." I said, quietly walking away with my head down. Trying not to cry, I opened my phone and plugged my earphones. I opened my Spotify account and played random music. The music that played is 'Say you won't let go' by James Arthur.

The song made me cry. Thinking about the things we did... Having fun, cooking together, dancing, going to the orphanage, making love...ehem...anyways...I would miss them. Edward means so much to me now. We spent the last month together as much as we could.
But It bothers me when Edward didn't even say a thing while we parted ways earlier. He just smiled... Is he that excited to get away from me? Tears were falling down my cheeks as I was about 5 meters away from the siblings.
Negative thoughts were forming inside my head. I was wiping my tears until I was back hugged by two strong arms, stopping me from walking. I immediately knew it was Edward just from the way he hugged me.
"Hey, Gary, Dear, Listen," Edward said, hugging me tightly. I faced him, still frozen. I was having mixed feelings, anger, happiness, and shock. Tears went down my cheeks.
"About me leaving...I'll just visit my work 1 week per month until the end of the year. I won't leave you alone. I changed my mind about staying there until you graduate. Instead of going so far away, I'll talk about us with my uncle... so you don't have to worry. I haven't had the chance to tell you because I wanted to surprise you, but you just left before I say it...I'm so sorry to make you feel that way..."
What happened next surprised me. I hugged Edward back with me crying tears of joy. My body just did it...
"You're so mean! I thought you were leaving for so long! You'll come back, right? Right??" I asked him. "I'm sorry...Don't make me feel bad...but of course, I will! I changed my mind about leaving for good after I heard you say yes. I asked my co-workers that I'd visit them 1 week a month so I could still hang out and see you and they said sure! When I come back, Come see me and we'll do lots of things together, so...Wait for me?"
"I will!" I hug him tighter. "This is the last call for--" The announcement said. "I have to go now. take care of yourself for me while I'm gone, okay? Love you~" He kissed my forehead and walked towards his sister who was lining up to go inside the plane.
