Chapter 12

The strongest drug that exists for a human being is another human being.

-Fitzgerald-

I drink the beer that I've ordered. The bitter taste of it draw something in my throat.

"Fitz."

This time I've heard her call my name. I wanted to run for her and give her a bear hug. But I didn't do it. Even if I wanted to held her in my arms.

"Fitz!"

This time she said it louder. There's a desperation in her voice as she said my name. I smile when I've remember something in the past.

"Fitz, Come on! Get out of there! Fitz please... I'm scared."

She still have the same tone when she wanted to see me. I look at her face. She changed a lot. She's far different from the girl that I loved ten years ago.

Her features are more stronger now. Gone are those soft features that I loved. I must say she looks mature... More sophisticated than before.

"Fitz! Please... Come out! Fitz!"

I heard her voice cracked. She's crying.

Shit!

I hold the steering wheel firmly.

This can't be.

Does this really happen?

That after ten fucking years she's still the same?

I wanted to get out of my car and ask her why.

Why did she leave me?

Why did she lied to me?

I wanted her to answer all my unanswered questions.

"Colline!" I looked at the man who called her name.

There... The emotions I thought were gone have arisen. She was supposed to be mine. I was supposed to be the father of Grover.

That kid.

He doesn't look like any of them.

Is he her son alone?

or is he the son of one of her sex buddy?

Thinking of it makes me want to punch all of their faces. Why on earth did she become a porn star? Why did she leveled herself that low?

By that I started my engine and drive passed them. But what happens next, is not what I anticipated.

He run and called my name until she just sit on the road.

I take another bottle of beer.

I saw in my rearview mirror the girl whom I used to love. Even if everything have changed, she's still that girl. 

The girl that I loved the most.

And I promised that on her 28th birthday she will be mine...
