AGENT Series: The Best Mistake (FINISHED)

Chapter 26

"Athena, wait up." Caleb said.

I went inside my car.

"I can't let you go alone." he said as he stood in front of my car.

"If you don't want to be run over by my car, get inside and fasten your seatbelt real tight." I said.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Slow down Athena. We are going way to fast." Caleb said.

"Shut up Caleb." I said.

"Athena, slow down. I don't want us to get into an accident."

I stopped the car.

"Step out."

"What?"

"I said step out of the car Caleb."

"I won't. I'm not afraid of you Athena. I let you boss me around before but not anymore. You move here in the passenger seat. I will drive."

"No."

"I said I will drive!"

I have never seen Caleb like this. I immediately moved to the passenger seat.

"I'll take you home. No more violet reactions."

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I didn't realize I cried myself to sleep in the car. It's been awhile since I cried. I woke up to see Caleb sleeping too. I didn't realize we have already arrived.

"Caleb?" I said.

"Sorry. I didn't want to wake you up."

"It's okay. You want to come up?"

"It's already late."

"Can you stay with me for a while? I know you're busy but I just wanted someone to talk to."

"Okay. I will."

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Katharin, her and your Kate is the same person right?"

Caleb nodded.

"I heard you whispered "Kate" when you saw our family picture. I remember now that she was in high school when she went to the States with Aunt Claudette and went back here to take up law. Also, she was called Kate when she was in the States. Small world. I bet you are happy now that her relationship with Nicholas didn't work. You have a chance now."

"No. That's not important anymore. I already accepted Kate and I would never be together. I already found the girl I was going to love and who'll love me in return."

Then there was silence.

"Thank you Caleb for being there for me. I know I always boss you around and I'm not the kindest person to you but thank you."

"What you did earlier was somewhat mean but I understand you. People just get tired of everything and they just explode. But I suggest you talk to your father and Katharin as soon as possible to apologize."

I approached him and kissed him on the lips.

"What's that for?"

"I've been meaning to do that ever since I went back from Korea. I wanted to tell you how I really felt but my fear got the of hold me. It made me confused about everything."

He then kisses me.

"I knew you feel the same way I do."

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I woke up the next day and beside me was Caleb. He's was hugging me from behind while sleeping. I just hope this lasts. I was trying to go back to sleep when suddenly I got a call from Aunt Claudette.

"Athena, I know you are mad at your Dad but you need to go to the hospital right now. He just had a heart attack."

"Okay. I will be there immediately."

Caleb then wakes up.

"What's wrong?"

"Dad just had a heart attack. I need to go to the hospital."

"I'll go with you."
