Chapter 10 - High Low

Short chapter, book ending soon, yeah.

~~~

NGUYEN TIM's POV

Me:
"Otter loved you too"

"My go,

Do you perhaps like...Raymond Mai?"

The latter's eyes twitched.

Honestly, if you couldn't tell Otter was lying by his mouth, then you could tell by his guilty eyes.

Otter sighed. "Yes, I do" He said with sincere.

I smiled, I finally get to see a relationship blooming right in front of my eyes. I envy you, Raymond Mai, you have someone that loves you for you but I don't get why you're pushing him away.

stingRay:
"No way"
"It can't be...it won't be!"
"Which hospital is he in?"

Damn I'm doomed.

Me:
"Private one. His mum took him, and I don't know where"

stringRay:
"Fck Fck Fck Fck FCK"

I heard loud sobs on the other side of the screen, as it was my turn to listen.

stingRay:
"I can't believe I let him slip away from me"

No, you pushed him.

stingRay:
"He could've been mine, if it wasn't for my mind playing around"
"I FKING HATE MYSEL—"

Call Ended

If you're doing something stupid right now, Raymond, I will slap you with Tae fish.

MAI RAYMOND's POV

I threw my phone onto the artificial grass, and groaned, knowing I probably had broken it. I placed the melting popsicles onto the bench before walking to Otter's house.

***
K N O C K ! K N O C K !

Despite the 'On Sale' that was mocking me on Otter's front lawn, I still knocked on their door.

I knocked again...and again...and again.

Tears filled my eyes, making it blurry to see anything. I grabbed the doorknob and turned it. Fortunately, the house was unlocked.

My eyes widen,

'Everything's gone'

"No, No, No" I muttered before running upstairs.

I swung Otter's bedroom door open and dropped dead onto the ground.

'He really is gone'

***

"Are you okay, Raymond?" Timothy questioned.

'Why'd I even come to this meeting?' I thought and touched the grass underneath me.

"No."

"You should move on, it's been two years already. He's not coming back"

I bit my lip, 'In my imagination, he's still here, he's by my side'

"You're so emo, I swear" Micheal joked, swinging his arm around my shoulder.

I lifted my head and glared at the shorter.

In the corner of my eye, I saw Tim gazing at me with hesitation.

I wonder what's on his mind.
