I'll Be Waiting •On hold•

Chapter 1: "i'll be back, i promise"

"Are you leaving, Brian?" I whisper, my eyes welling. "Um, yeah..yes. I have to" His face crumples up in pain. "I'm so sorry".

Brian recently found out that he isn't the real son of his parents. The parents he knew that raised him up like theirs weren't even his real ones they were his foster parents.

Brian's mum died after giving birth to him. The doctor who delivered Brian took him and raised him like his child because his wife was unable to conceive.

Before Brian's mum died her wish was for Brian to find his elder sister. Brian's father abandoned his mother while she was pregnant of Brian and took his elder sister along with him.

Brian's foster parents told him the truth and his mother's wish on his 17th birthday, he was really broken when he found out.

Now Brian's main objective is to find his father and take his sister from him since it was his mother's last wish.

"Okay buh..but when will you be ba..back" I stutter with tears rolling down my face to my lips "I can't say Kendall, I have no idea, the only thing my mum left behind was a picture of my dad and my sister" he says running his fingers through his hair.

I can see tears about to fall from his eyes but he is holding it back,he is trying to be strong.

"hmmph, when will you be leaving?" I asks wiping the tears from my face with palm. "This night. I already booked my ticket to Australia. I found out after my father left my mum he moved to Australia. So I plan on searching for him in Australia, I pray he hasn't moved to another country" he says leaning on the wall in front of me.

I sigh "Brian" I coo. "Yes?" He ask "Come back for me" I respond moving closer to him so I can look into his piercing crystal green eyes.
"Promise you'll wait for me" He says looking into my eyes, I can see pain in his eyes. I know he doesn't want to leave, but what can he do, he has no choice. "I'll always wait for you as I long as my heart still beats" I respond.

He lowers his head and kisses me on my forehead and whispers "I love you".
"I love you more" I say with tears starting to fall down again.

He brings his face closer to mine and places his hand on my waist and pulls me in compressing our bodies together. His warm breath warming up my face stating how close he is to me. He leans in and places his lips on mine and we have our very last deep and passionate kiss.

After the kiss we break apart. "Um Kendall.....Bye babe" He says, tears rolling down his face. "Not Bye, see you again. You say 'bye' to one you wouldn't see again" I correct him.

"Okay love, see you again" he says.

He turns back and walks away from me heading towards the door of my room.
He places his hands on the door knob and looks back and utters to me "i'll be back, I promise".

Those were his last words before stepping outside and slamming the door behind him.

The sound of the door slammed is the sound of my heart break.

When he left I cried my eyes out. I even took out my misery on the inanimate objects in my room. I broke my dressing mirror with heels. I took out my misery on every single thing in my room.

I barely slept, I wept overnight and reminisced about the memories spent with him.

I've known Brian since when i was five, we attended the same elementary school, middle school even high school. We confessed our love for each other when i was ten. We started dating when I was twelve, we were the cutest thing ever.

When he left I was like a living corpse, I couldn't eat nor sleep I only cried and thought of him.

I'm not the same Kendall anymore, I don't smile. I shunned everyone away from my life except from my mum and my Bestie - Lizzy Norman.

After Brian left we still spoke through the phone but after 6 months we didnt talk again. I don't know why, I couldn't get through his line. I tried every means as possible to get through him but I couldn't.

Two years later......

Now it's been two years since Brian left and I haven't heard from him since a year and half. I don't know what condition he is, dead or alive.

These 2 years without Brian hasn't been easy for me. Thanks to my mum and Lizzy I was able to get through these years. I'm better than I was two years back but I'm not the same Kendall anymore.

I hope one day he will be back. I trust Brian, he promised he will come back. I'll be waiting for him. I will always love him and no one will ever take his place in my heart.
