It has been ages since I left school. Figuratively. Right now, I am freshmen in "Da best College". James didn't turn up. I waited for an hour . And then left. I don't like to think about it. All i can say is , I am okay.
I remove the petal from my cup and sip. I do attract a lot of blossoms.
"Hey" I hear a voice.
I turn around.
James.
I want splash my coffee on him. Punch his face. Kick his delicate parts. But I don't, instead I see that he had few Blueberry cupcakes and take one. Have a bite. I look at his pretty face. He smiles hopefully. My heart stops, but the world goes on.
Yes I loved him. I still do.
But I suffered. That sums it all. James stopped smiling. I wish he could go on.
"Blueberry" I say as bluntly as I can. He broke me. Broke our Deal.
James nods, still waiting for me to forgive him.
I turn and start walking away.
Once broken, It wont be the same. After walking for sometime, I sit down. "You still love him" speaks my sub. I don't reply. I stuff down the cupcake, crying.
After a while I get up. Ready to go to my dorm.
"What about him" asks my sub.
"He can die" I reply.
"you want that ?"
"No"
I reach for my phone. I love James. I always did. He didn't know and I wouldn't accept it, even to myself. But he left. That's that.
Will he still be there? No its been 15 minutes or something. He would've left. As always. I rush to my spot. As i get closer, I see that James is still lying there, the way left him only this time crying.
"J-James?". He never cries. Not when his parents divorced. Not when his older sister overdosed. Never.
James looks up. His eyes red. "I-I am-m So-sorry, sorry". He continues,"I-i came. y-you left. You weren't there. I searched. Everywhere. I thought you left. You forgot. Then I came to know , the time that I was late I thought I never see you again-"
I silence him by hugging him. "I love you" James told me in muffled voice.
This time the world stopped.
James picked up a cupcake.
I smiled. "Blueberry?" I ask. He nods. I take a bite. With all superiority, I say "Forgiven" James starts laughing.
"I love you too" I say.
We then sat and ate Blueberry cupcakes under the Cherry blossom.
