He looked so gentle and elegant.
He looked so fine and serious in that suit.
I still can't believe that's him, William, My dad.
"Hey, Jacqueline"
He looked so happy to see me and wanted to hug me but I refused. I just shaked hands with him. I had that serious-but-happy look on my face."I gave you some chocolates , I know it's your favorite.. and I asked our cook to cook spaghetti with meatballs for dinner"
"That's lovely" I said "but I'm leaving " I grabbed my bag and stood up from my seat.
"What why? You haven't eaten a thing yet" Isabella said sadly
"Thank you for everything, but this is too much to face in two days! " I replied "I mean after all those years I meet you again, I know you've changed but the ugly personalty of yours ruined my life and I can't forgive you just like that" while my eyes were filled with tears I went out the door. I couldn't handle this. I know it's stupid but I just couldn't see him.When I finally reached home I lay on my bed. I forgot that I already had my diary book back so I thought of checking it.
While flipping papers I found a small paper inside my book.
Dear Jacqueline,
I know I caused you a lot of problems, because I used to be a drunk lover,but, dear child, I've changed now.. and I need you beside me. Looking at your ocean-blue eyes and your fluffy curly hair reminds me a lot of your mum. She was such an angel. I really hope you would read this and change your mind.
P/s: I wrote this because I knew you won't forgive me easily.
Your dad,
William.With the sound of a beautiful piano play I cried while looking at the windows. There was a shadow of a guy who was playing piano. I wonder who would play piano in this hour. It's really late. But anyway, he is talented and I have always love piano,so it's totally fine.
My dad really needs me beside him. But I can't just like that go for him! And I can't trust him that easy. I looked at the paper he wrote again then I flipped it. I notice there was something written on the back.
If you ever changed your mind here's my new number
*************
The next day Jones asks me curiously "what happened yesterday? "
"Nothing, Joseph took me to my dad's house and as usual I ran away " I calmly, as if it was a normal thing.
"again! Seriously! Sometimes I feel like you're a weak person "he says that as he rolls his eyes while pointing at me with his finger. I know he is disappointed. He just doesn't understand my situation. I ran away for a reason."Whatt!! No!" I said as I slap the table "I'm just afraid! Because William gaves me bad memories I'm not over it yet" I tried not to show I was mad, because I really struggle in controlling my temperature and emotions.
"you should give it a try girl, like you finally have a family again " he was calm again, finally.
"I know, but I'm not happy about it. " I said. "Jones.. if you were in my shoes, what would you do?" I asked him.
He thought about it for a while then finally spoke "oh my god that's really hard"
"Told you!" I exclaimed.
"But maybe I would take quite time to think ..if I should just trust him or ignore him"
"Yeah I thought of that too"
"Hey there's some customers calling"
"Okay"
I was over thinking of what Jonas told me while holding some plates full of some rice and chicken then I accidentally bumped into a guy.. again..
"Omg" I said while looking at the guy's shirt, it was full of red sauce and the rice was all over his hair, then the plate fell from my hands and hit his leg so he fell down and tried to handle his fall by holding my shirt but I unfortunately fell on him.
"I'm really really sorry" I was on him, really close to his face, I could feel him breathing. He looked to my eyes and he said "it's okay, though this is an expensive shirt" he did that little cute smirk "omg I'm really sorry " I tried to get up while holding his hands to help him "I'm Ben by the way" he introduced himself "and I'm sorry..a.a. I'm Jacqueline " I giggled a bit and I could feel the heat on my cheeks. I was probably blushing. " haha nice to meet you sorry"
"Nice to meet you too 'expensive shirt' "
"So you work her huh? I like the food here it's so good" Well you think?
"Yeah, I'm glad you do" A small smile was drawn on my face.
"I have to go now, hope to see you again but not like this "
"Sure thing" he winked at me and I waved goodbye to him.
He has a really beautiful brown-yellowish hair, and green eyes. I feel so guilty for spitting that red sauce on his shirt , that was a really beautiful shirt. I smile a bit as I hear Jones says " awww she fall in love "
"heyy Would you stop it!" I looked at him, chuckling.
"Haha, I think that guy gonna have to wash his shirt 10 times till it's permanently gone" a big grin was on his face. He is probably happy for me to meet a new guy.
"Seriously?? Omg what have I done"I said while scratching my hair wondering how he will remove that sauce off his shirt .
"yeah..you bad girl" he nodes then laugh at me. "You really look like you seem to like him" he completes his sentence "you mean like 'love in the first sight' I don't believe in that, I actually don't believe in love ""Really? why?"
"Humm nothing, gotta go"
Love. Why would I believe in something called love. Or maybe not all boys are the same, some are actually different but who knows.
I hate the fact that I actually liked Ben, maybe I just liked his eyes and his soft hair fulled with rice haha I thought to myself.
