Lisa Victoria

After I had a chitchat with the receptionist I hurriedly get to the resto to feed my grumbling stomach. While I was enjoying everything on the table I couldn't help but to wonder if she already even had her dinner.

I'm allowed to worry about her atleast right? I mean as a friend...Oh no erase that, she never even considered me as one. I dont know how to put it but yeah alright, I am worried she might not have eaten yet

But wait, that kinda sound insane.
I shouldn't be worrying about her I mean she can take care of herself really well. I no longer wanna get involved with whatever she's up to

As soon as I finished eating I gathered my stuffs together ready to get out of there but something strange happened to me. My feet brought me to wherever Jennie was and wait there's more—that's not yet the worst thing I've done.

My body automatically moved closer to her as I wrapped my arms around her

Strange but the longer I felt her in my arms the more happy I've become. I feel at ease. It's an absurd thing to say but I guess this was the thing I've been longing for years.

I hate to say this but...I missed her terribly much

I know I can't be feeling this way but I could no longer lie to myself.

I miss her being in my arms, her scent, her smile. I miss everything about her.

I miss the old times..when I can cling unto her all day—when I can hug and hold her hand as much as I want. I dont know why I am suddenly feeling this way

"I thought...I lost you again.." She hugged me tight and so I did the same to her

"Stay with me, dont ever think of leaving me again..." I heard her say those

"Am I even allowed to do this..."
I wanted to pull out from the hug but she never let me

"You are allowed to do whatever you want..."

"What are you even afraid of..."
I never had the right words to answer her question. I dont really know what am I supposed to tell her, I suddenly run out of words

"Lisa, let's give it another try...Let's make it right this time..."

"No, we cant do that.."
I pulled out from the hug and was about to turn away from her but she was quick to grab me

"Why not? Lisa please...let's give it a try.." Her lips were trembling so I needed to avert my eyes away from her

"Didn't you hear me?" I almost shouted at her. I clenched my fist as I let out a heavy sigh to atleast calm myself. She really is pissing me off

"I already give you my answer. It's a NO"

"B-But why..." she held my hands while looking at me so intently and here I am I couldn't help but to stare back

"Simply because I dont want to. Do I still need to explain myself? Do you even want to hear it?"

" I bet you dont" I quickly added

"I do. I wanna listen to every little thing you wanna say, Lisa..."

What did she just say? I guess I heard her wrong

"Are you joking? What did you say?" It was me trynna make everything clear. I bit my lower lip to stop myself from laughing.

She still have time to take her words back before I start laughing at her face

This is the most hillarious thing I've ever heard from her.

"I'll hear you out. Now, tell me everything" she insisted

Isn't this the thing I was dying to hear from her back then? Why is she suddenly telling me this now?

I never thought this time would come that she will actually be wanting to hear the other side of the story. This is so unlike her

"Oh? That's new!" I said clapping my hands

"I'm sorry...if I didn't try to listen to you the last time..."

"No, dont be sorry. It's fine, really"
I assured

"Besides, it's all in the past now. We're both in a good place, happy and contented" I put a smile on my face to convince her that I really am okay

"I came here to drop this just in case you didn't have dinner yet..." I picked up what I drop earlier and handed it over

"Here, eat this. These are all favs"
She gladly accepted it but she doesn't seem so happy, her eyes were a bit sad.

How can someone get sad after obtaining something she's addicted to?

"Are you leaving?"
I was about to give her a response but she started talking again

"Can you just spend the night with me, please?"

Disappoinment was written all over her face the moment she saw me shaking my head

"I can't. I hope you understand"
I can no longer stay in her presence so I started walking away.

I wanted to feel her in my arms once more but I will just be giving myself a hard time, I may end up forgetting what I'm supposed to do so I needed to say my goodbye once and for all

I dont trust myself at all—I may end up not wanting to depart from her

She called my attention a few times but I never dared to look back even I wanted to take a glimpse of her face so bad. I already made up my mind so I must stand to whatever I've already decided—there's no turning back.

"How dare you show yourself then leave me like this...again"

"I wont forgive you for this. Let's not see each other again, you hear that!"

If I'm not mistaken, that's the exact words she also told me the last time.

The only difference is, the one who was left behind is now the one who decided to walk away—the tables have turned
