Abandoned Love

Chapter 27

CHAPTER 27

It's the last day before sem break, meaning, last day that I'll be with Bernie. Ugh.

Usually, I like sem breaks—oh, I love them. And I thought that missing somebody that you 'love' is so clichéd and corny, but now, I'm in the same situation with common lovers.

"Class dismissed."

Said Sir Anderson, our professor in foreign language.

Many of my classmates stood up quickly, packed their bags and looked so much excited.. US? Well, our row, are just sitting, not saying any word.

But then, finally, Calvin also stood up and get his bag, looked at me only and said

"Bye, Claire..."

I can see that Zach is also looking at Calvin, with bewildered look.

"Oh, bye, my crabby FRIEND."

I said, looking at Bernie and emphasizing the word friend—to clear his mind and trust me that he's the only man.

But Calvin glared at me and get out with irritated look.

Ugh, that broody guy!

A few minutes later, I finally stood up, bringing my bag.

But Zach pouted his lip and began to act like a child. What a cutie!

"But, I want to be with you!!"

He said, pulling me back to my chair.

So I laughed, realizing that he will really miss me.

"But, we need to go... I'll meet you in two weeks, all right?"

It might sound that I don't care if we're together or not, but, it's so hard to say that!

"Can I be with you?"

He said, like he really wanted to be with me.

I wish he would, but I'm sure that I'll be in Laguna with my mom for two weeks, not being able to see his face.

"Uhh, Bernie, I..."

"Until we got to the gate!!! I'll escort you up to the gate. Can I? Can I?"

"Of course you can, you're my boyfriend!!"

I widely smiled at him and offered my hand, so, without any hesitations, he holded I then stood up.

While we are walking down the stairs, my phone rang.

So I let go of his hand then took my phone from my pocket.

"Oh, excuse me, my mom's calling, sweetheart. Gotta take this."

I smiled at him then answered my mom.

"Oh, hi mom! Missed you!!!"

Oh gosh, it's been a month since she called me—busy because of work.

"Oh, anak!!! Can you take all your things from the dorm?"

What? Why?

"Why mom?"

"Because I'll give you my gift!!!"

OMG, her present!!!!

"But, I thought it was after the sem break?"

I asked, pretty startled and happy.

"Oh, so do you want the gift to be postponed?"

"NO! No mom!! Hihi~"
