What if you are being honest with me?
Will we end up like us?
What if you did not talk to me?
Will we end up with love story?
Two months had passed, all the groups were back to Cambrina Nursing and Healthcare Institution. A figure has caught Lystie's attention at the petrol station. "Is that JR?" The question was spit out as she saw Jordan was kissing a girl in the back of another bus. Mike was surprised when he saw them too. "Maybe that is not Jordan, whom was just a man that looks exactly like Jordan." Mike tried to divert Lystie's attention. "How can there be two person look the same in one time? That girl he was kissing is Maybeline the MLT student." Lystie let out a sigh. "You got sharp eyes Lein." Shine praises Lystie with a smirked on her face. Mike pulled Shine's hair who sat in front of Lystie and him. Shine shuts her mouth without further comment.
As soon as their bus stops, Lystie walks down the bus and make a quick steps towards Jordan's bus. "Hey! Lein, my sweetheart." Jordan greeted her while pushing Maybeline away from him. "Ow, I beg your pardon. Who are you?" Lystie teased Jordan while inventoried him from top to bottom. "Lein, what's wrong with you?" Jordan asked with a pleading voice. "What's wrong with me? No, what's wrong with you?!" Lystie's anger poured out of her chest. "What is it that I do wrong again? It's just that I hold her hand..." Jordan's voice ascended. "Hold my ass dude! You think I'm blind that you were kissing her at the back seat of that stupid bus? You're making yourself look like a fool." Lystie added; she turned around and grab on Mike's hand and leave Jordan. "Mike?" Jordan's pronounced it softly and runs towards them. "What did you tell her?" Jordan swings his fist and his first punch was landed on Mike's cheek. Mike fell down to the floor, blood coming out from the side of her mouth. Lystie pushed away Jordan and gave him a middle finger. "Look at this, you're sucks! You should really stay away from us; I've fade up with a man like you. Let's break up. This is my final answer; break our 4 years relationship from now on; we are totally stranger; full stop." Lystie pulls Mike and they left Jordan and his group, and also Maybeline the seducer.
"Are you sure you wanna break up with him" Mike asked as he wiped the blood stain on the side of his mouth. "I may be regret about it as the love that grows in me has been 4 years old by now. But I'll be happy from now on as I'm free from him and his lies." Lystie answered while walking ahead of Mike and Shine. "Why didn't you say anything Chi?" Mike pushes Shine gently. "I have you to do the talking. So why should I interrupt you guys again?" Shine smiled without looking back to Mike.
Six months later, Lystie become more hardworking and the only places that she will stick for a long time were her classroom and the library. "We're going to be in the 3rd semester soon." Shine spoke out as she combs her straight hair. "What makes the smile on your face? Have you talked to Kay today?" Lystie smiled while she stares fixedly to Shine. Shine stops combing her hair and turn her head to look at Lystie. "Yes, I've talked to him this morning." Shine pulls Lystie towards her and started to comb Lystie's hair. Lystie nodded while her eyes turn to see herself at the mirror on her table. "Thank you for giving back my self-confidence." Shine added. Lystie nods again without comment. "Lein..." Shine lifts Lystie's head to look at her. Tears are running down to Lystie's cheek. "I'm sorry..." Shine pulls Lystie closer to her and hugs her. Lystie tried to loosen the hugs while shaking her head. "I am sorry about what had happened to you. I know how you tried to calm yourself in your own way." Shine cried along with Lystie. Lystie sobs as she saw Shine's tears. Few minutes later, Lystie take a deep breath and wipes off her tears. "Thanks for being there for me whenever I need someone to talk to." Lystie said at last when she has cools down. She kissed Shine on her left cheek and walks out of their room. The morning breeze has pulls the smile on Lystie's face again. Since it was their last day as a 2nd semester students, she come earlier to the class and clean up the classroom. Every pairs of eyes was looking at her with curiosity but none of them dare to ask why. "I'm going to graduate soon." A sudden voice spoke out behind her. Lystie turns her head to see that person; Jordan Rave. "Congratulations to you in advance." Lystie fake smile fills up her empty face. "Can we talk for a while?" Jordan asks as she pulls Lystie's arm gently. "Sure, you can talk to me here. I don't want anyone to misunderstand us." Lystie pulls back her arm roughly. "This is not the proper place to talk something like what I'm going to say." Jordan pleaded. "Would you define to me your proper place?" Lystie added; poker faced. "The pavilion..." Jordan is giving example to Lystie. "Not for me." Lystie interrupt. "Maybe behind the school building..." Jordan is still trying to give example to Lystie. "That is for drug addict students, not for me." Lystie interrupt again. "Or perhaps the rooftop..." Jordan said softly. "That is proposing place, yet not for me." Lystie added again with a whisper voice. "Then, where would you like to go if every proper place that I've said was not for you." Jordan sighs. "I choose nowhere but here." Lystie smirked. Jordan exhales while staring at Lystie. "The look of you didn't work out for me; it didn't scare me at all." Lystie said. Her heart was actually pounding hard and her heart beats increase, she bites on her lips to stop the tear that was going to be release from the sacs. Jordan smiles and he gives up talking to Lystie. "Take care then; send my regards to your family." Jordan ends up his conversation and left Lystie. 5 minutes of become stupor while standing in front of her classroom had makes Lystie's tear fell off to her cheek. "Hey!" Mike runs to Lystie with a smile. Lystie grabs on Mike's arm and look at him. Her eyes met Mike's; Mike wipes off her tears spontaneously. "JR talked to you today?" Mike's question had made Lystie to cry more. He wrapped his arms on Lystie's shoulder and led her way towards the rooftop. "Let it out now." Mike said while loosen his arms on her shoulder. Lystie walked towards the edge of the rooftop and look down the building. "I don't expect you to be stupid, okay?" Mike added while lies himself on the floor.
