I whimpered as I felt the cold metal touched my back.
I know he's an ass but I never thought he would go as far as hurting me physically.
I looked at him as he strayed towards me.
"You're not going anywhere, babe."he said.
He pulled my hair up and...
I stared at the message on my screen. My heart started to beat louder the longer I look at it.
That's why this person is asking questions Sunny already knows about.
Who the heck is this?
This is definitely not Sunny. Is this Tyler? Is he pulling pranks on me?
Or... maybe Van?
Argh. Why are they doing this to me?!
I decided not to reply to the weirdos' message. I blocked the number and decided to sleep for the night.
Whoever it is, I don't fucking care anymore. I'm going to rest.
I'm also too tired to even go to Sunny's party so I immediately fell asleep.
Seven days to go before Mum and I fly to the UK. Sunny and I decided to spend the remaining days together. I slept at their house for two nights.
Then we decided to sleep in our house next. I can say that it was the best week of my life. I don't know. Maybe I'm just getting mushy and all.
This might be the effect of leaving this place.
There are nights when we stayed up until 3 or 4 am. Just talking about random stuff. You know, girl talk.
I'm going to miss Sunny. She'd been there for me since my first year of high school. She'll always be my best friend.
The day before our flight, I woke up around 5 am. I was not able to go back to sleep so I decided to go for a run. Sunny was still fast asleep. I didn't wake her up and she's also a deep sleeper so I don't think she'll wake up.
The sky is a mix of blue, yellow, and pink colors. The breeze was still cold. I could also see the faint shape of the moon.
This is sooo refreshing!
It took me an hour to go around the neighborhood. A group of women is wearing white. I think they're going to the nearby church.
Some people are taking a jog. Some of my neighbors are already getting ready for work.
I'm gonna miss this place. I smiled as I turn to the next corner of the street. I jogged a little slower as I passed by Van's house.
I know we fought... but it's all in the past now. I'm just happy I'm moving on to the next chapter of my life.
I wiped the sweat on my forehead and jogged a little farther. I turned to the last corner of our street and saw Tyler's house.
To my surprise, he's no longer in his wheelchair. He's using a crutch and is standing on their patio.
He's looking at the skies. I don't have any plans of talking with him so I decided to continue jogging. But he saw me and called after me.
"Krysh!"
I looked at him. He still looks gorgeous. Even with those crutches, I can't deny the fact that Tyler looks freaking divine.
I stopped in my tracks as I catch my breath.
"Hey.", I said, casually.
He walked towards me. I can't help but somehow feel happy for him. After months of getting stuck with that wheelchair, he's now walking.
"Good to see you get back on your feet.", I said and he smiled.
"Yeah. Took me ages."
I smiled. A genuine smile. Maybe, I could not forget the things he did to me. And honestly, I still have feelings left for him. But what's important is that I learned how to accept that...
Tyler and I would never be a thing.
"I heard you're flight is next week."
My eyebrows crossed. Where did he hear the news? No one knows that besides Sunny.
And... that weirdo.
"How did you know that?", I asked.
"Everybody knows.", he said and I immediately knew that he was lying.
No one knows about that. The only person who knows about our flight is Sunny. And she is not a chitter chatter.
"Tyler...", I said in a low voice.
His smile slowly faded. He then averted his gaze.
"No one knows about my flight. And I think you know that too."
"Yeah. Sorry.", he said. Though he did not say it directly, I think I know why he's saying sorry.
He then looked me straight in the eyes.
"I'm gonna miss you."
I stared back at him and shook my head. And here I thought I already forgave Tyler.
I'm disappointed with him. And maybe, to myself too. Cause when he said that, my mind says I'm gonna miss him too.
But I chose to bury those feelings.
I left him. I left him without saying a word. I don't want to hurt him but I also don't want to give him hope.
I just don't want to talk about it anymore.
Sunny stayed at our house til the day of our flight. She was crying and so was I.
"I'm going to miss you bitch.", she kidded which made me laugh.
I hugged her. "Hey, it's not like we're not going to see each other anymore. You can visit me in the UK!"
She laughed. "Yeah, right. As if it's not on the other side of the world."
"I'm going to video call you now and then."
"Oh shut up. As if you're my boyfriend.", she joked to make the mood lighter.
"Sweetie, we need to go. I'm sorry, Sunny but we're going to be late.", Mum said who's now inside the car.
I looked at Sunny and hugged her for the last time.
"You'll be my attorney when I file for divorce when you come back.", she joked.
I laughed cause she's not even married and she's already planning for divorce. I was torn between taking economics and law but decided to take law at the last minute.
"Get yourself a boyfriend first.", I said and closed the door. I rolled down the window and waved goodbye at her.
Mum started the engine and off we go.
I waved at Sunny until I couldn't see her. I looked at the houses we were passing by. Everything looks nostalgic.
I'm going to miss everything here. Before Mum turn to the next street, I saw Tyler on their patio.
My window is now rolled up so I don't know if he saw me. But his eyes were fixed on our car. I don't know if it's just my imagination or what but Tyler looked sad.
Mum finally turned to the next corner.
I know Tyler and I can't be together... but maybe, without all these shits...
Maybe... in our next life.
Or maybe... after 5 years... we could be together.
