In Between

In Between : She Who He Gonna Married

  “ So who is the girl,  Joshua?  ” I asked him again first like same old same old. 

    “ Oh,  she is my ex-girlfriend . ” He even replied  truthfully  because it makes me heart react. 

    “ So why is she in the hospital?  Is she in some kind of ill  ? ”  At first I don't believe it.  Then I realized  my tear was slowly dropping  . I wipe my tears off. 

    “ She have a brain tumor . She's  gonna have her surgery soon.  ” Joshua looked seriously  and driving  quietly  .

    I know that he in his darkest and deepest time so I just shut my mouth. When we reach our home , I left him outside,  I also saw that Liz and Alliah was in front of our door . I hurriedly run to them then all I just heard from him was sound of the tires of his motorcycle

    “ What is happening between you and Joshy ?”
Lizzie asked but I'm not in the mood to talk. 

  “ Anyway how long have you been waiting here? ” I tried to talk about different things.  But they are still in the question .

   “ Samantha,  are you okay?  ” Alliah start care. But I was out of place. 

    “ I'm not fine,  so please stop!  ” The only way to stop them is to stop them from talking. 

    As we enter to my house,  I quickly run to my room which is upstairs.   I sit down on my polished bed.  I looked and stared to nothing. 

      I realized that I was still affected ,  What the hell ? Who is that damn girl?

      Suddenly  a knock at my door scared the hell out of me. 

      “ Samantha,  there is someone outside!  Want me to answer it? ” Lizzie asked as she hold her waist and start to go downstairs  .

      I don't have any choice.  So I stood up and skip the depression  stage  . I opened my door and I felt the breeze in my face that makes my day continue  . I start to run and Liz asked me a question  .

   “  Are you okay?  ”

  No I'm not fine , I thought with a grin satisfaction  . But anyway I can do this on my own.  But I hesitated saying those words. 

    “ I'm fine , go on,  continue your work. I'll get that.” I was nervous at the same time.  I was also lonely and weak. 

     Liz get back to her business  and then I stepped forward  . I opened the door and saw Joshua in white T-shirt 👕 inside his black trench coat and a black jeans. 

    “ Samantha can we at least talk?  ”  Joshua asked a question . Then he had a   voice inside his mind.
  “ Oh please forgive me , Samantha . ”

    The area where we are talking is quite silent  . So we decided  , just to talk outside.  The birds are chirping lovely and peacefully.  The air breeze pass through my hair. 

      “ I'm sorry about being rude to you this morning.  ” Joshua was really nervous.  I can tell,  he's hands were shuddering rapidly  .

     “ It's about the girl in the hospital,  my ex-girlfriend.  ” Joshua said.  He has the face of an angel that comes out just when he just needed too .

     “ Yeah , why ? What about her?  ” I suddenly  get confused.  I mean , why do he need to come here ,  that is because he was gonna say something  important  .

     
     “Look don't get this wrong,  our family agreed on a marriage agreement.  ” Joshua looked down then he slightly  swayed his shoulders  .

    “ What do you mean by that?  I can't understand  . What agreement  ? ” I asked him when he suddenly  stared at my eyes .

       “ An agreement  about me and Candice getting married for our company.  ” Joshua can't look at my eyes as he felt ashamed .

      “ Why do you need to do that except  for your company needs?  ” I replied and I don't know what to do.  I'm confused at everything he says.  “ But what about our thing.  The surprise  , the first meeting  impression  , giving  gifts and everything  especially  our first kiss  . ”

       “ I don't know,  I know this is gonna be a pretty  hard for you.  But don't up on love because love can bring happiness to a one person's life. Don't be hopeless  and  marry the one you really  think the one.  ” Joshua smile and felt peacefully  .

       Then he walked away while I go back to my house.  As I enter I saw the two ,  peeking on us. 

      I laugh and thought about what Joshua said.  The word " the one " is echoing at my head .

4 hours later.  . . .

    I decided  to go downstairs  and go to the party with Alliah and Lizzie  . As we were travelling  Lizzie asked me a question  .

    “ Hey Sam,  what are you gonna choose to delete when your phone is running  out of space ? Is it your picture with your crush or your picture with your friends that is always in your side? ”

     As we arrived  , I saw Joshua, Clyde,  Zack and Rico playing billiard.  I was surprised  that Joshua know those things  .
