We were eating our breakfast quietly. It was getting awkward actually. No one would even break the silence.
*Knock knock* I turned my look at the door, who could that be?
"I'll get it" Toby said, coming towards the door.
"Duuude...!" Toby's voice was kinda surprised.
"Hey bro!" As the guy talking to Toby replied, I already knew that it was. CONNOR.
Connor headed to the kitchen with Toby with him. Well, his hair is still the same but something is different, but I can't figure it out.
"Hi mom" Connor kissed his mother, who was also surprised.
"Connor, but I taught you're arriving next week?" Aunt joan said.
"Well, I wanted to go home early"
"Riley! How are you bro?" Connor went to Riley and they did a Fist pump.
"I'm okay"
"Allison, I didn't know you lived here?" Connor looked at me.
"Well... Actually, no. I just had a breakfast with Riley. That's all"
Connor nodded and sat beside me. This is so awkward.
"Uhm... Mom, Can we excuse ourselves" Riley held my hand and took me home.
"Riley, what's going on?" I blocked Riley's way.
"I better take you home"
"Wait. Is this about Connor again?" I lifted my right eyebrow.
"You don't understand, I can't lose you" He was some what serious, and I don't even know why.
"What the hell are you saying?" Something hitted my head. A flashback memory that happened four years ago. Is Riley talking about aunt joan's plan? the arrange married between me and Connor or....
"I should take you home"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Really?! He's home? We should talk about their arrange marriage then?"
I hid myself at the stairs, and watched my mom as she talks at the phone.
"They're in the right age already..." Mom continued.
*Bzz bzz* the ache I'm feeling was relieved when Riley texted me to meet him at the park.
I gently wiped my tears and went to the park.
"Hey! What's up?" I sat beside him but he didn't respond with a Hi or Hello.
"Alli... I.. I-I think we should break up"
Riley wants to break up with me. This is unusual. Girls are the one who should be breaking up with her boyfriend. And not a guy.
"You're joking... right?" I muttered. Trying not to let my tears fall.
"I'm serious.. I met someone. She was also in a band"
I looked at him, but he was avoiding eye contact with me.
"I understand" I tried to smile though. Even I didn't like
I stood up and walked away.
"Alli, don't turn around. Don't turn around. Don't turn around." I said to myself.
"Alli..." He spoke out
"If you're happy with your decision, I'm also happy" I said. Not wanting to turn around.
Riley's POV
What am I doing? Is breaking up with her is a right decision?
"Riley, Chrissy is here!" Tension filled the air. I didn't know what to do.
Chrissy is a nice girl, she's beautiful and a singer like me. But she's just not my type of girl. But I gotta do this for Allison. I started this. There's no turning back.
I already knew the arrange marriage between Allison and Connor, actually I've known this for about four years.
Mom just wanted to wait for Allison to come at the right age.
As for Chrissy, Her mom and my mom has also an agreement about our arrange marriage. This decision was already planned BEFORE I met Allison.
Before I met Allison, Chrissy was already the girl I'm going to marry. I've already known her since 5th grade. The truth is, before I met Alli, I've NEVER experienced the word LOVE. I only experienced this feeling to Allison.
I taught that I'll never experience it. That's why my mom made an arrange marriage between me and Chrissy. I wish I could stop the marriage, but I can't. Everything is planned.
I knocked myself off. Coming back to reality. I wiped my tears, falling through my face. And took my guitar with me.
"Hey!" I shouted with joy, showing them that I'm not sad.
"Riley! I missed you" Chrissy jumped with glanced. And kissed me on the cheeks. "It was 5 years since I last saw you, How are you? Damn, you're getting handsome"
Chrissy went to London to continue her studies.
I chuckled "I'm fine. Well, you're prettier than the last time I saw you"
She playfully punched my shoulder. "You still never changed. So.. Where's Connor lover and Toby baby?"
Chrissy made up some names for Connor and Toby, I guess that's her thing
"Connor is staying at his apartment, while Toby is at his room"
"Is that so... Well, I guess that we'll be doing this just the two of us"
I gulped. sweat was dripping through my face. What does she mean?
"Hey! Riley! So what? Jamming? Let's do a cover" She slapped me, awakening me from day dreaming
"O-oh.. Yeah. Sure" I took my guitar and did a cover to post on youtube.
