Always

By His Will, I'll Never Yield To You

As she watched her walk away, her heart suddenly felt heavy with a pain that she thought that it would creep up again. The sight of her turning her back on her, without so much as a glance back, caused a deep ache to settle in her chest once more. It was a familiar feeling, a feeling that she fought so fiercely to overcome.

She couldn't bear to see her go like that, especially when she knew in her heart that it wasn't her fault. Was history repeating itself once more? Or did she unconsciously did her wrong? Question after question kept popping in her head, as she stood there, rooted to the spot, watching her until she took the turn and disappeared from her sight.

-She took her leave and walked towards her car, while her hand uncontrollably touched her necklace. "The time between us..has yet to come..Rebecca..though I sense that your heart is still clouded with doubts and fears..but I will always remain grateful for what you've done..I will always cherish your gift to me, as I will wait for our time to come"

Her own words were echoing through her mind, trying to shake off the feeling of being misunderstood again. The moment her feet reached the sidewalk of the parking lot. She noticed that she was walking alone, as her friends were still there in the building. She doesn't want them to notice her saddening eyes, especially when they all been acting strangely lately. She decided to stay there for a bit, until one of them contacts her about her whereabouts.

-Momentarily, a black car parked in front of her, she noticed the person who was driving, looking at her worryingly. He exited and rushed towards her, slowly touching her shoulder to get her attention. "Freen?" he called softly "what happened sis?..is everything gone according to plan?..plus where is everyone?..why did they leave you alone!" Freen slowly turned her head and said. "T..they are still in the building..I..I had to leave to get some fresh air..and well I don't remember that I was walking or something..but I guess my mind was...somewhere else"

-Heng frowned and asked. "Freen...are you alright?" Freen's eyes welled with tears, as she was gulping trying to prevent herself from crying. Heng noticed that she was struggling, and immediately pulled her into his arms. Freen couldn't help but to let everything that she has been holding to flow away. She cried as if she was going through a loss of someone, which apparently she had. She held his jacket for dear life, while he was completely silent and stroking her hair. Moments after, her tears stopped flowing, but she still didn't let go of him.

-She needed that comfort and warmth, knowing that she will always have if she ever asked for it. However, this time around it was her and him, against the rest of the group that has been hiding things behind her. Regardless of what or how much they hid from her, it wasn't her right to ask, for the time being maybe. Shortly after, she pulled away, and looked at him with her puffy eyes and sniveled. "S..sorry". Heng signed wiping her tears and smiled "don't apologize...and I'm not gonna ask you ab-" Freen interjected and said "I..I was just overwhelmed by how I pulled everything off and convinced the president to agree with my terms"

-Heng just simply nodded knowing that it wasn't the cause of her tears. However, he doesn't want to add more salt on her wounds, so he decided to cheer her up. "Sooo someone is graduating so very soon!" he beamed, as he softly punched her shoulder. "Please do tell me how desperate he was when he was trying to change your mind!" Freen chuckled and said. "Well the videos helped a lot..however his desperate pleading was to give him the blueprints of the robot that I created" Heng gasped and said "oh please tell me you didn't sis!"

-Freen shook her head as she smirked and said. "Not gonna happen!..I removed the important parts so no one will ever be able to replicate...so that robot it's just a monument" Heng massaged his nape, while giggling confusingly and said. "Interesting...so what did you remove?..and why?" Freen suddenly got excited, as she shoved her hand in her pocket and said. "Here..look..umm this part is responsible for switching to fire mode..this is his heart, umm an arc reactor..and this is his mind..well a prototype of the AI that I will create very soon"
