RIS'S POV.

Previously, after he dumped Jake's offer of letting him in the car,

"How far he would have to follow me?"

I am trying my best not to stop and keep walking until this weird freaking guy stop following me.

While walking i saw a convenience store and i went inside and sat there for like an half hour.

Upon checking him in the mirror it seems like he are gone now.

I feel at eased so i went outside.

I started to regret things when i felt tired walking.

I should've accept his offer and just that.

But my guts say otherwise, in consequences i have to walk and strive to get home because i have no options at all.

After a few minutes, I arrived at my apartment. When I arrived at my apartment, I immediately charged my phone and turned it on.

Thinking that I made my mom worry a lot.

In a moment, I received a call, expecting that it was my mom, but no, it's my fucking ex.

There are only two things to do: first, decline the call, and second, block him.

I turned down the call and I'm about to block him but he send a message instead.

"Let me speak to you, I can explain."

I texted him back, "Where?"

"At my office."

I want to hear his side, and i want him to apologize for what he did.

I am not mad, but very mad because i have to walk again.

I just got dressed and left my apartment.

While walking, I've come to think that Jake and Jade are twins; they're very identical.

In fact, when i woke up and saw jake i thought he was jade but his eyes and tone is very different and much clearer than jade.

So, I made an assumption first,

What happened last night and is he somewhat related to jade?

But right after I saw that old family picture, I confirmed that they were related.

The question left in my mind is what happened last.

I don't really know, but it's very complicated. How did I end up sleeping at his brother's house? The last thing I remember is that I was drunk because I broke up with Jade.

Not long ago, I finally arrived at the hospital and am walking to his office now.

"I'm here outside." I texted him.

"Okay, coming." He replied.

Door's opening,

"Come inside." He then gently grabbed my wrist and led me to the sofa.

It's honestly awkward.

I just got here, and now a guy went in, and when I turned my head to look at him, holy cow.

It's jake.

"YOU!", We are both shocked, which makes us shout at each other.

"Do you know each other?" Jade.

Jake said yes, but I opposed it by saying no.

Resulting him makes feel bad.

"Look at you, are you not even thankful for what i did to you?" Jake.

"Wait, I don't get you two." Jade.

"Is he your patient? Don't get him treated; he doesn't deserve it, I'm telling you.", Jake mouthed that harshly.

"Well, who said I was a patient here? How can I thank you when you and your attitude don't seem good at all, and for the record, you are the ones who voluntarily helped me, and I have already thanked you. In fact, you are just being demanding." I exclaimed.

"I shouldn't have let you in my house and sleep in my bed if I knew that's what I'd hear from someone I helped." Jake.

"Sleep in your bed?" Jade.

I just got snapped out of it and realized that Jade shouldn't know this.

I keep an eye on Jake and bit my lips as if I am trying to warn him not to tell further.

If he tells, I'm dead.

But I don't think so because we split up, and Jade has no reason to be envious.

"I mean, he was drunk last night, and I saw him sleeping at the bench in the park, so I went to check on him, and it looks like he needs my help.", Jake's made-up story seems unrealistic, but I hope Jade will believe that.

"Yes, that's true." I added.

In a blink of an eye, Jake asked me how I got here.

And Jade said I'm his boyfriend .

"We are not dating anymore, we are just an ex." I redeemed.

"Oh bro, that hurts." Jake.

"Please be seated." Jade.

After that, we all sat down and talked about the matter.

I heard Jake's explainations saying that, the girl i saw with jade was their cousin and they're in the café that time because they were discussing about jade's promotion for me.

Jade said he was sorry for shouting at me at the playground.

I felt their sincerity and genuine apologies, and as a person who's softhearted, I have to accept it.

After all, we agreed to get back into our relationship.

We are dating again.

It's all because of Jake; he helped us.

Since it's getting dark, we decided to go home now, but Jade said that he has to stay here at his office to finish up something urgent.

So, he suggested that we go first instead.

It's still awkward walking out with Jake and i feel guilty.

"Jake."

"Yes?"

"I'm sorry for what I've said to you and for not thanking you properly." I said that with empathy.

"It's fine, I'm sorry too." He said.

"How can i repay you?"

"Treat me some burger." He said, and then he added, "Here's your wallet."

I thanked him again and again.

For the last time, I mentioned that I am thankful for not telling what really happened last night.

"You really don't remember, huh?" He asked.

"Yes." I said.

While we are walking he told me everything, and I'm grateful that he didn't tell Jade about that.

"I'll treat you next time." Then i smiled.
