SEAN

As much as I don't want to leave you, I was forced. You forced me Kay. I don't want to argue with you that's why I did drop you off.

Kaycee, why does it have to be this way?

"Thank God you're here." Maddie say as she hug me.

"Where's Mackenzie? I'm also kinda hurry."

"She'll be here in a minute."

"What? She wasn't still here?"

"She had a quick peek at something."

And I'm stressed. First, I'm in a hurry that made my girlfriend decided to just drop her off, only to find out that the person I'm meeting with is still not here?

"Sean, I'm sorry... Perhaps you might want to have a coffee or something?"

"No... No, I'm good."

I just take my a seat and relax myself. I'm stressed and I don't know what to do.

So, I open my phone and call you.

[Sean?] Your voice seems to lighten up. [Aren't you busy?]

"I'm sorry I drop you off."

[It's okay. It's my decision.]

"It's not okay with me.. And I'm very, very sorry."

[Babe, relax okay?.. Just come home early.. I'll be cooking dinner.]

"Okay.. I love you."

[Love you more.]

"Love you the most... And forever."

You chuckled that made my feelings lighten. That made me so eager to make things faster and spend my time with you.

I ended the call right when Mackenzie has arrived.

"Sorry guys. Did I make you wait?"

As much as I want to say 'yes', I can't because I understand her.

As soon as you came, we immediately start discussing about this new project.

I like the offer and didn't hesitate to sign in.

"Thank you for agreeing on this."

"No problem. And besides, we're friends and I'm happy for you as you start your singing career."

We hug and take pictures. After, Maddie came near me.

"Sean."

"Hey."

"Your going home already?"

"Yep.. Kaycee's waiting for me."

"Oh... Hey, uh, can we have a picture?"

"Sure. Why not?"

"Thanks."

And you call Mackenzie's manager to take us a picture. After, I look at you.

"Can I have a favor?"

"Sure Sean, what is it?"

"Can you tell that manager not to post our picture?"

"Why?... Oh I get it. Okay, sure."

"Thanks. Appreciate it.. Well, gotta go now."

"Okay. Be safe."

"I will."

I hurriedly run outside and look at my time. It was already time for dinner. And I need to hurry.

So, I drive fast, but safely, making sure to be hone on time. Luckily, I d8d come home on time, this time.

I open the door, seeing you on the living room. You are sitting on the couch, busy with your phone while the TV is on. You feel my presence that made your smile even wider.

"Hi" I say and take a seat next to you.

"Didn't expect you'd be home this early."

"The meeting finished earlier than I expected."

"Well, what's the meeting all about?"

Should I tell you Kay? Thought it might hurt your feelings.

"It's Mack."

"What about her?"

"She let me sign a music video contract and wants me to be the director and choreographer of the MV."

"Well, that's nice! But, is she the only one you come to meet there?"

"Yyyeah."

KAYCEE

Why do you have to lie Sean? Why?

Before you came home, I was visiting Instagram. I was scrolling for new posts, liking them and also, watching how my new post gain lots of likes and comments. It was our picture together.

Then, I go back, because there is a new post. It's Mack's manager. He posted new pictures of you and the crew. But what did really surprise me is that, the last picture was you and Maddie. It wasn't a big deal actually. What really is big deal was, you are wearing the same shirt, but differ in color. You are wearing white and she is in black. The comments pop up that you are twinning.

And then, a notification pops up, someone tagged me in a post, and many mentions in comments. I open the post and it was our picture, and on the other part, it was you and Maddie.

What really did hurt me? They were comparing me over Maddie. Luckily they didn't comment or tagged you there, Sean. Luckily.

So when you come home, I ask you. And you said 'none.' Why Sean?

"So, what're you so happy about?" You ask.

Should I lie?

"It's Gabe." And your face expression changes.

"What about him?"

"We saw each other earlier."

"And?"

"We just had a bit of talk. Something like asking each other how life has been. You know... We've been friends and it's natural to miss each other's company."

And you didn't talk. You just stood up and walk into the dining area. You face the fridge and start looking there. I follow you and hug you.

I know you're jealous, Sean. But, atleast I'm telling you the truth. What about you?

"What are you doing?"

"Are you jealous?"

"What would I be jealous of?"

"Don't deny.. But remember that I love you."

You face me and you hug me back.

"Let's have some dinner. Okay?" And you nod. I prepare the food and I ask you to just wait. And you did.
