The Truth Untold

The Chase

Corrinne's POV

I didn't even finish the call. I ran to my car and drove to the airport.

'He's leaving the country in 45 minutes.'

Those words got stuck in my mind. 45 minutes. The airport is 15 minutes away from my house. I need to stop him. I must tell him the truth.

After a few minutes, I got out of the car and ran inside the airport. I had my special access I.D. with me. It was given to me by our friend, Mr. Lee. I ran around the airport hoping to see him but there's no sign of him. I gave up after a few minutes but as I was looking around, I saw a familiar man in black.

He turned around and it was him. I ran up to him but as soon as he saw me he rushed to board his plane.

"HENDRIX!!!" I yelled, tears welling in my eyes.

The guards stopped me from following him. And that was the last time I saw him. I left the airport minutes after bawling my eyes out. I can't believe that a lie would destroy our friendship. I guess it's my fate. As I was driving, I passed by our favorite hangout place, the park where I fell in love with him every single day that we'd see each other. Yes. I love him. I really do.

I decided to stop by and try to clear up my mind. While walking in the park, I started to remember our memories. I miss him. His laughter. His smiles. His eyes. His everything. I miss him so much. I miss my bestfriend. I miss the love of my life. My tears began to fall uncontrollably. I wish to see him again maybe not this time but someday. Someday.

Hendrix's POV

No.
Why is she here?
No.
She wouldn't change my decision.

I ran away as fast as I can. She continuously called my name but I ignored her.

Well it's a good thing that I ran fast, if I didn't perhaps I could have missed the flight.

My flight left as soon as I arrived but I don't know if I made the right choice. Was it right to just leave? But she lied. Was I supposed to listen to her explanation before? But ____ told me everything. She would never lie to me,right? Oh well, one thing Im sure of is that there's no turning back. I love her right from the day that I first saw her but now Im confused. She should've told me before. I had to know it but she kept it to her self. She's selfish.

Corrinne's POV

I continued to walk not being able to sense the pain of walking for 2 straight hours. Im numb. I couldn't sense anything but the tears rushing down my cheeks.As his "father's" words flashed back.I can still remember his words.

'Corrinne,Please keep this as a secret'

'The moment that he finds out, he'll be in great danger'

'I trust you'

Trust. One thing I lost from Hendrix. He didn't believed me. He refused to listen. Im so stupid.

I didn't want to break the promise that I made in that moment 3 years ago. That moment when his 'father' held my hand tightly and looked into my eyes as he pleaded me while I was rushing him to the hospital. I couldn't refuse. I saw his eyes, they were pleading, asking me to do something that I know someday I will regret and that day came. I just wish I never had to keep that secret. Now, Im all alone.
