The Pain In Her Eyes

Chapter 2

Clyssalin's POV

-dream-

"You're weird, that's one of the things I love about you," he said while rubbing his thumb on my cheek.

"I love everything about you. Please, don't leave me." I said as I held his hands, looking at him.

"No, I won't. I promise I won't leave you." He said, smiling as he kissed me once.

"I promise too."

-the end of the dream-

I woke up and I felt some tears on my cheeks, again. I sat up and wiped my tears again. I looked at the clock, its 7:00 PM. That dream won't stop, it kept repeating in my head.

I smelled something delicious, I guess my mom is cooking my favorite dinner. I changed my clothes and I fixed my hair into a ponytail. I went downstairs and then went to the kitchen. I saw mom cooking fried chicken. My mom looked at me.

"Oh good, you're awake," she said as she put our dinner on the dinner table. "Yeah, I just woke up because of that dream again," I said in a low voice.

"Oh, that dream again? Are you okay?", she asked. Yes, she already knew about it. She was always there for me after the horrible break-up.

I nodded as I sat down on the chair. "I don't know when will it stop, mom," I said, I put my chin on my palm while waiting for her to put my favorite fried chicken on my plate.

"I guess it will stop if you find someone new, dear," she said as she put my food on my plate and she sat on the chair beside me.

"But... I'm scared that he will leave me, like what he did. You know I'm still in pain mom... I can't stop it. It's hard to forget and stop the pain." I said, looking at my food.

"We'll talk about this later, okay? Eat your dinner first before it gets cold," she said as she patted my shoulder. I nodded as I do what she said.

After I ate my dinner, my mom and I talked about the things what will I do to stop the dream. It's kinda easy but I'm hoping that it will work.

"Mom, thanks for helping me," I said as I hugged her quickly.

"No problem, Clyssalin. I love you, dear," she said and she hugged me back.

"I love you too, mom," I said, I pulled away. "I better go to sleep now, I'll do it tomorrow."

"Sure, goodnight," I said as I stood up. "Goodnight, mom." I went upstairs and then went to my bedroom. I locked the door behind me and take a shower because it's getting a little bit hot. I put on my nightdress and lied down on my bed.

-in the morning-

I woke up from the alarm. Argh, I thought I turned it off last night. I took my phone and the brightness is stabbing my eyes. I turned off the alarm and put my phone beside me. Stupid phone. I sat up and went to the bathroom to wash up my face. It's around 8:00 AM, I guess. I went to my closet to change some clothes and went downstairs to eat some breakfast. I hope there's a pizza on the refrigerator. I opened the ref and boom, there's a pizza. I closed it and I saw a pink note on the table.

"I went to the groceries, I'll be back later. I left some pizza in the refrigerator, and you can go out anytime you want but bring your phone with you. I left some money for you, it's at the dinner table. Love u~

Mom"

Well, thanks, mom. I'm lucky that I have a mom like her. I took two pizzas and put them in the oven to warm them as I went to the living room. I guess moms went somewhere. I went back to the kitchen to get my pizza.

I went to the dinner table and take the money and went to my bedroom. "I'll go out later." I put the money on the table and I started to eat my pizza. I slide the door open on the balcony and looked around. It's... kinda quiet place, I like it. I turned around and I remembered something. The ring.

I started to find it and I found it on the small table. I took the small box and opened it. I don't wanna pawn it though, there's a reason why I found this ring. I looked at the side of the ring and saw a name. Amourlyn? Pretty name. I guess there are some hints on the attic but I'll do it later. I wanna go somewhere. I changed my clothes, I took my phone and my money with me. I went outside and locked the door behind me. I know mom got another key for it. I texted mom that I will go to a coffee shop.

Mom: Okay, be careful. I passed through a coffee shop earlier. It's kinda near to our house. But keep walking to the left.

I kept walking until I found a coffee shop. I guess this is the coffee she is talking about. I went inside and the smell of coffee smacked right into my face. It makes me thirsty more. I sat down on a small couch.

"Good morning miss, what coffee do you want?", a deep voice from behind me, I turned around and saw a tall guy and has fair skin. He's wearing a uniform.

"O-Oh, uhm... I want an espresso." I said, stuttering a bit.

He wright it down what I said, "Anything else? Like doughnut?" he asked.

"No, just espresso. I'm okay with it." I said, smiling. I looked at his name patch. Raiden.

"Okay, coming right up." he walked away and went to the door. I took out my earphones and plugged them into my phone and then started playing a song while waiting.

"Here's your espresso, miss." The guy said as he put my coffee on the table. "Thank you," I said, smiling. He nodded as he walked away. I started to drink my coffee while watching outside the coffee shop. I put on my headphones and started playing some songs.

Raiden's POV

"Dude, why don't you just find another girl?", Ryan said to me while I'm washing some cups. We've been best of friends since I moved here last 2 years. "I can't, it just really hard. I tried to find some girl but it's still hard." I said as I leaned on the counter. "It just really hard man, it is hard to forget that girl."

"Let's talk about this later, and oh there's a girl who came inside the cafe." He said while looking at the small window from the door. I looked through it and saw the girl. She has long black hair and fair skin.

"Damn, she's pretty tho.", Ryan said. "But I think she's gonna be the next girl for you bro." He laughed.

"Oh shut up, I'm gonna do my business first," I said and I walked towards her.
