CHAPTER 22
A/N: this chapter is still a flashback.
-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
I was crying all night until I fell asleep. Reason? Well, except from the fact that this 'marriage' thing is really making me sick, Adam, my boyfriend, just walked out on me. But I couldn't blame him at all.
It's been one week since I told Adam about my 'problem'. Unfortunately, until now, I don't know where he is or if he's still my boyfriend. I mean, somehow I think I can understand if he'll think that I'm crazy.
A woman in good condition will not ask her boyfriend to marry her out of the blue. Well, obviously, I'm that woman, 'cause all I can think of is what to do to convince my dad not to pursue their plans.
===
"Guys, your plan, it's really not working. And I don't think that it will work. It's been a week, but until know, I'm not hearing anything from him!" I said to full of exasperation.
I called my 'genius' friends who thought of this plan and meet them at our fave café. At first, I do not want to tell them about this, but, what can I do If they're so consistent in bugging me about Adam's reaction when I asked him the 'question'.
"Kath, dontcha worry. Okay? For sure, he's just... clearing his mind." Jean said, giving me a reassuring smile. I nod my head but my brain did otherwise.
I felt like he don't want to see me anymore. Maybe by now, he's thinking that I'm ridiculously crazy.
Ben's whistle bring me back to earth from my thoughts. I looked at him.
"I think, someone already made out his mind." he said after whistling and nod towards the entrance door. We all look to the direction his staring at.
Oh my! I can see a beautiful man. Adam is here. It feels like a heavy baggage has been lifted from my chest. Him, showing up, somehow made me hope that we're okay.
Anyways, he's looking around, seems like searching for something and when he saw me he walk towards our table. Just looking straight to me, he's smiling but the smile doesn't reach his eyes. 'is something wrong?' .
Before he reach our table I stand up and meet him.
"A-adam" I said with a small smile. Wasn't sure of how to act around him, because I don't know if he's mad at me or what.
"Can we talk? Alone." I just nod and went out of the café with him.
Outside, he almost drag me in the nearest alley, I assume we're in the back of the café.
We're standing there, staring at each other. Seems like we're reading each other's mind. I was about to open my mouth to speak when he suddenly puiled me towards him by waist then he kissed me.
I was stunned by his sudden action. It happened so fast, that I was shocked and wasn't able to respond. When I was about to answer his kiss, he leaned his forehead to mine. Looking into my eyes.
I missed this man so much. The action he did made me realized that he still loves me.
He kissed my nose and my lips again. This time, I was able to meet him. He's making our kiss deeper. He slowly licked my bottom lips, and I willingly gave him access. I was lost in our kiss.
This kiss telling me so much unspoken words. Telling me, that this is the man I love.
We broke apart when we suddenly heard the door opened.
A skinny bald man was at the door. Wide-eyed.
"I-I'm so...rry. I didn't-
He didn't finish he sentence, he just ran back inside.
I looked to Adam and laughed.
"Did you see his face?" Adam said that made me laugh more because I remember that guy's reaction.
When my laugh was slowly subsiding. He hugged me and whispered, "I missed you so much. I'm sorry if I wasn't even able to message you. I'm just clearing my mind. I realized that I can't live without you. So, yes. I'll marry you. We'll get married as soon as you want. I love you." Instead of saying i miss him too and I understand him for not showing up in how many days and instead of telling him that I love him too, I just hugged him tighter, my cheeks on his chest. I know by this body contact he knows what I wanted to say.
