For the first time in forever, I feel so happy to go to someone's house.
For the first time in forever, I admitted that I missed my Goofball Girlfriend.
For the first time in forever, I wish we were never broke up.
And for the first time in forever, I lose.
One hour earlier, I reached Theresa House and parked my car in her yard before knocking the front door. I stop by the bookstore near her neighbor just to prepare to purpose her and take her back.
Only to imagine it make me feels so excited. Belatedly, I can be happy again. Finally, I can love her like before, and finally, I know she has the same feeling
I knocked on her door again when the door not opened. And, when I hear her angelic voice from inside, I smiled.
Geez, she makes my heart pounding so fast.
The door opened and from behind, I saw the woman I loved wearing neat clothes
"Hi!" I greeted.
I noticed her surprised face before she covers it with a fake smile, "Hi, Tobias. Why are you here?" She asked
I smiled back at her and say, "I just want to see you," with a confident more like a fool voice, I replied to her.
She widened her eyes, "Well, now you see me, so,"
I held the door with my other hand as fast as the lightning and said what I've been prepared for a long time, "I bought you this. I hope you still a Potterhead,"
the second she takes my gift carefully I can't help myself not to smile. She still has a feeling for me.
"Thank you, Tobias. But, I have to go now,"
I winced and can't hold myself to hide my sadness, "where? I can drive you there if you want,"
She shook her head quickly, "no, you can't. I have to go to the airport,"
I stand perfectly blocking her way out, this is my chance and I don't want to let her go.
"You want to go back to Milan? What about Theresa?"
"Theresa will go with me also. My house installments finally paid off so we will stay there,"
Suddenly I felt something like dejavü. Something makes my heart beat so fast.
"Right now? But—"
A car horn interrupted us, and she immediately goes out with all of her luggage.
"Wait, Emma! Can we talk for a moment?"
Emma turned back, faced me. And that makes me noticed something unusual, she wears foundation or whatever too much on her eye bags
"No, she can't. She will not be talking to you anymore, Mr. Broock,"
A familiar British guy that presumptuously interrupted us, take Ema luggage.
"What the hell you were saying? Last time I checked, Ema can speak. You don't have the fucking right to tell her anything,"
I come towards him, dragging his arm and challenge him to say something back at me. but Ema's pushed my body.
"Tobias, please. Can you leave me?"
I stared at Ema in disbelief, "are you defend this loser now?"
Ema sighed tiredly, that makes me feel sorry to say something rude to her, "you've never changed, don't you?"
The way Ema said was truly stabbed me. and all I can do is let my chance leave me with the British boy.
"Please show your bloody face on our wedding day, Mr. Ex Boyfriend!" The British boy yelled from his car before driving his car away
Wedding?
Of course, Emma wouldn't love me anymore. She must be happy with that British boi and his accent.
What was I thinking about? She still loves me? How ridiculous.

"I'm just an ex-boyfriend who hurt her badly over and over again. I'm a selfish, rude, ex-boyfriend. I don't have a good manner like a British man. I don't deserve her," I said before gulp my liquid
"Oh man. What happened to you? A month ago, you still the cold CEO and now you turned to be sensitive like a human being,"
I ignore Noah and still up to my drink
"Okay.. okay. Listen to me. If you want to get her back from that British arrogant guy, you need a plan,"
I turned and see my friend solemn face
"You should tell her you still love her and want her to be your partner in life before you'll regret it for the rest of your life. I will call James to prepared your jet. Tonight, you go to Milan and chasing her. Get her heart back. Prove to her you're not the same guy as before, show her your sincerity,"
I listening all his words, and finish up my drink.
"Are you sure, she will choose me after that British guy?"
Noah nodded. "Absolutely, I believe she still loves you when I saw you guys at my engagement party,"
"Then I'll win her back,"
"That's my man! Now, Cheers!"
Emma, wait for me.
I'll win your heart back.
