A DATE WITH EXO

A DATE WITH EXO (CHAPTER 35 [PART 2] LAY)

YOUR POV

After the interview for Kris's date we were back on the road to the next venue. I changed my clothes to a black panel skirt, a black top with a neat bow and black pumps.

The car ride to the next date wasnt long. We arrived at a local chinese restaurant. Lay hadnt arrived yet so we just waited outside the restraunt till he arrived. The smell coming out of the restraunt was incredible I couldnt wait to get in. Lay finally arrived after five minutes apologising perfusely.

Me:" Its okay atleast your hear now. Shall we go in?"

Lay opened the door for me and led us to a table set for two. Lay:" I hope you like Chinese food? This restraunt makes the best it almost tastes like home." he said with a huge smile on his face which revealed his dimple.

Me:" I love Chinese food!" , 'He also loved Chinese food' I thought to myself which brought a sad wave which washed over me. I tried my best to smile and stay happy for Lay thus far and I tried even harder now. We ordered starters which was a dumpling soup also his favourite. For mains I decided to order his favourite Sweet and Sour Prawns with a side of noodles. I ate with a heavy heart but it also kept his memory alive.

The date went smoothly I managed to keep my happy face on and conversed with Lay, I learnt alot about him how he missed home and the things he did there. After we finished our dinner I was really full. Lay payed with his card which meant he had to sign. I payed careful attention to his hand writting, it was nothing like Anonymous's which ruled lay out as Anonymous. Atleast we were getting a little bit closer to solving the mystery.

END OF INTERVIEW

YOUR POV

I was done for today but a busy day was coming up tomorrow and I was already drained by the thought of it.

Manager Kim:" Were here."

I looked outside the car window and we were parked outside a church. When I meant I wanted to pay my respects I didnt really think of this. But since he was a religious person this was almost perfect.

I smiled at Manager Kim before getting out the car. She didnt come with me since this was something id usually do alone. I walked into the Chapel, the stained glass windows lightly light due to the many candles and small lights on in the chapel.

I took a candle and light it watching the wick catching fire before I slowly put it in a holder amongst the other light candles.

I knelt down and began to say a little prayer before I started to look to the sky and began to talk.

"Hey! Its me and yea I made it just like you said I would. I cant believe its been six years already after you know...(pause) I still miss you like crazy you know that? and I still regret what happened to you! You never listened! and your probably rolling your eyes at me because I sound like my mom. (Sad Laugh)... You wouldnt guess what I had today, yea your favourite Sweet and Sour Prawns! I wonder if they have that up there or wherever you are and I hope your okay. I guess I just wish you were still here with me and everyone else. I wish you could see me now how grown up I am now but I guess you can see up there or wherever you might be... I have to go now but I want you to know im always thinking about you and ill always love you" After saying that the tears began to roll down my cheeks. I wiped my cheeks and thought about him after all my brother didnt liked it when I cried especially if it involved him. I said a final goodbyes to my brother before I left the chapel. Wiping away my tears which showed the pain I held for the six year anniversary of my brothers death.
