I walked towards the bed he was in. I just watched him for about 3 minutes. Everybody was silent. I know he doesnt have feelings for me anymore. I know he hates me but I saw something that he had with him. I was shocked. It was my hairband.

It was the hairband that he stole from me that night at his party. It was around his wrist. He kept it with him. So many questions popped up in my head! DOES HE STILL LOVE ME? IS THAT EVEN MINE? AM I DREAMING? But the main question was DO I STILL LOVE HIM?

Sunny and Karren were watching me...

Sunny: Are you okay Leya?
Karren: Why do you look so shocked?
Me: *changing topic* Did you call his parents, Sunny?
Sunny: Oops! I may have forgotten that part!
Karren & Me: SUNNY!
Karren: You idiot! How could you forget such a thing! *grabs his phone from him and calls Noah's parents.
*passes the phone to Sunny to speak*
Sunny: Hello?
Noah's mum (aunty)
Aunty: Hello? Who is this please?
Sunny: Aunty i am Noah's friend speaking. I called to inform that Noah is admitted in the hospital because he met with an accident.
Me: Sunny! Way to go buddy! Why dont you scare her more! *grabs the phone from Sunny* Hello aunty!
Aunty: OH MY GOODNESS WHAT HAPPENED TO MY SON!? WHERE IS HE?!? HOW IS HE!?!
Me: Aunty dont worry. Everything is under control. Noah is absolutely fine. Hes admitted so that he can get enough rest. Other than that he is fine. Pls dont worry.
Aunty: Which hospital?!?!?!?!
Me: *gives aunty all the info and wait till she comes*

You see, his parents found out about us remember? So i didnt want to be there when his parents came. I hust wrote a letter and passed it to Sunny. I left before his parents arrived.

Karren followed me back and went back to her college. I was in my room thinking what Noah's reaction would be after reading the letter! I felt really nervous and a little scared.

The letter said....

To Noah,

It's me, Leya. I dont know why but I had to write this to you. I left early because I didnt want your parents to see me. They knew about us and weren't happy and I bet they wouldnt be that excited to see me.

I also noticed one more thing. You have my hairband. Why do you still have it. It has the same design that the one you took from me and please dont try to say that it was a coincidence. I know it isnt.

Moving on, I have always tried my best to forget about you and everything but it has just been very difficult. I just want to know something that I never got to ask you before. Was everything a lie? Did any of it mean anything to you? Or was it just all for fun?

DID YOU EVEN LOVE ME FOR REAL? OR WAS IT JUST A LIE? I NEED ANSWERS NOAH! Why did you still have it with you? PLEASE.

A whole week passed by but there was no reply. I was walking to my campus and a car stopped right in front of me. The door opened. It was Noah....again!
I was shocked and a little scared that he might shout at me or something. He walked towards me and handed me my letter. He also gave me an envelope and asked me to open it.

Me: Whats this? What are you doing here? Whats inside?
Noah: Can you open it and find out yourself.
Me: *opens the envelope* My hairband?
Noah: In your letter you used the word "hairband" like a 100 times so I decided to give it back to you.
Me: You think I want it back?! After all these years you kept it and now you have no shame and no answers for me but you can talk so much? WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU ARE?!
Noah: *stutters for words* Calm down Leya. Why are you getting so tensed up.
Me: Because I dont understand how you can act like nothing happened. Because you seem fine. Because I cannot forget what you did to me. Because the pain you caused was greater than anything else. Because after all that youve done, I still love you. *tears rolling down my cheeks*
Noah: I....I ummm....I
Me: You dont have to say anything. *starts to walk away*
Noah: *grabs Leya from the back and hugs her* I love you too Leya! NO NOTHING WAS A LIE! EVERYTHIBG WAS REAL! I LOVED YOU AND I ALWAYS WILL. I AM SO SORRY. I KNOW I HURT YOU BUT I KEPT THAT HAIRBAND AND EVERYDAY I WOULD LOOK AT IT AND THINK OF YOU!ONLY YOU! PLEASE FORGIVE ME!
Me: ........
