After 3 months..
Taylor's POV
It's been 3 months. I got over it all, well the feeling, yes but the comfort and the memories? no. There's nothing else that I could do. What should I expect?
I am on my way to the Registrar's office of the college that im enrolling myself for this semester. And yes. We're almost graduating. Can't believe i'm about to be a freshman this coming school year. 3 more months and it's done. Got to get out of this place. Too many shattered pieces of paper and hearts.
Also, I am going to the same college with Joe this coming school year, since we've been planning to be medical practitioners in the future. There's been too many choices but hey, I like Physical Therapy. Rehabilitating patients, helping them to regain their strength, keep them back on tract.
I am waiting for him here. We agreed to meet at 9:30 but then it's 10:15 in the morning and yet he's not here yeeeet. I might leave him after im done here. I am in no position to wait for him here, besides, we had a deal last night.
I was next. Oh wait, it's my turn. I got the requirement list and headed out to the cashier for the reservation fee payment. When I was about to finally go out of the office, I saw him.
Harry and his grin.
I was stunned mentally, but i kept walking. I am not planning to be overly dramatic with him. Everything happened for a reason and i am quite sure that it wasn't for this encounter.
"TAFFY! TAY! TAYLOOOR!" Joe yelled. I looked at the direction from where i heard the voice, he was at the hallway bringing coffee. The nerve of this guy.
"runnin a bit late are we?" i told him. "Got to wait for the line of our favorite coffee shop to buy our favorite coffee for coffee breaks? i know you left early that's why you didn't eat breakfast. you can't fool me Tay." he left out a grin. And yes, that's true. I come to agreed time earlier than the time, i like being early but i always, always risk the opportunity to eat breakfast, simple. I DON'T WANT TO BE LATE, beside i don't want to let the person wait for me. and yes, i replied, "you got me. no breakfast yet. thanks for the coffee." he laughed at me and told me to sit at the cafeteria and wait for him to finish what he had to do.
and so i did. my tummy felt a whole lot better after drinking the coffee Joe bought me. I hope this is going to be a good year. A new beginning and a new struggle. Keep it coming.
"Hey Taylor." He said, that all too well remembered voice I just heard. I looked him up and said, "what do you need?" Harry looked at me as if nothing happened. Hey! can i remind you of what you did to me? but no, nevermind, let's let that be.
"I just wanted to say hi, and ask you if you're doing okay." he replied. "oh please, cut the formalities with me, it's not as if you didn't do anything bad to me, but hey, im over it. You don't need to feel guilty because I am okay now." timing is really everything, my mind wanted to leave, and yes i left, i saw Joe from a distance waving at me like sending signals for me to leave and follow him.
I looked at Harry, he seemed normal, but he never replied. So i bid goodbye. I said,"you know what? im sorry. have a good school year a head, see you at graduation, bye." then i kissed his cheek for formality and smiled.
I looked at him, and he looked so dumbfounded. MISSION ACCOMPLISHED.
I knew it. He knew what I was doing.
"Taffy. you are so mean. Anyway, Sophie is going to meet us at the Mall. She's getting mad at me for not answering her calls. I guess my girlfriend would kill me now if she had the chance." we laughed.
And yes, he has a girlfriend. Joe is one of my best friends. he's moved on from liking me to liking him to break up with him to him liking me again to confronting him that i don't like him that way, and now we ended up loving each other's company, as friends.
We made our way to his car and went to the mall. It was a normal day for everybody. It was a Saturday, anybody had the right to feel free and just chill. but the road isn't chill. deadly traffic everywhere. Might as well fall into a deep slumber.
