Can't Get Over You

Chapter 3

I reached the inside of our bar panting; I was desperately searching for Drake inside. I hope that he was here so that I can talk to him, to learn the details of his text.

My brain is malfunctioning . . . I don’t know what to do or what to think anymore. I’m just too afraid to lose him at this moment.

I know that the time we’ve spent together was short. And we’ve only been together for months now. But I haven’t fully enjoyed my time with him yet, though every moment with him is bliss, it’s still not enough for me, I know I’m selfish, I know I’m unreasonable, but I don’t; want to lose him now.

And then suddenly the thought of long distance relationship came to me and it saddens me, knowing that it is the only possible thing that may happen to us.

I was pulled out from my train of thoughts when someone grabbed me by my waist and said, ‘Hey’.

                                                                                                                          

I recognized the man’s voice and I knew who that man was. I looked up, saw his face and I frown. It’s not him, it’s my boy best friend, Nash Reynolds.

Nash is a year older than me, he turned 17 a week after my birthday. He’s a frequent player/costumer in our shop/bar. You can always see him present in our shop almost every day. He’s an only child that’s why he’s parents lets him do what he wants in life. A~nd I kinda envy him for that.

“Nash! The fudge! I’m not in the mood ok?” I snarled at him.

He puts his hands up in a surrendering position, “Woah! Red alert! Quite a temper you got there? What’s wrong?” he snickered.

“I need to find Drake, I have something to talk to him about.”

“And then? . . . What’s that about?” he wondered.

“ . . . . . It’s none of your business dude!” I glared at him

“Okay, okay! You don’t need to cry” He cooed.

I didn’t notice that I was already crying if not for him mentioning it. My irritation and dismay must have build up already that’s why it spilt over in the form of my tears.

“Woah, woah, woah! Come on Vicky don’t cry, I’m sorry for prying ok?” Nash said as he tries to calm me down.

I saw Nash looked passed me, he looked quite relieved by what he saw that’s why I also looked that way. My eyes widen, and my crying stopped. My irritation turns into relief. I suddenly became so happy. IT’S HIM. It’s finally him. The one I was looking for, the one I was waiting for, it’s Drake. I quickly jumped into his arms and hugged him.

“Drake . . .  Drake . . . Drake” I sobbed. My tears were on the brink of falling again. I felt relieved now. I didn’t know I was holding my breath until I let it out. I just let my frustration out. I let it all go. I was so glad he found me. I wrapped my arms around his neck and hugged him tightly.
