Cae's POV
He stood at 6 feet, he had messy copper hair and deep blue eyes. His nose is straight and his lips were between thin and full. He has the jaw of a model but with subtle amount of hair if you look closely. It seemed like forever since I last saw him and right now, he's laying on the lounge chair. Sleeping.
"What the hell are you doing here, Cabel?!" I shouted.
He almost jumped off the chair in surprise but when his breathing evened out. He said, "The hell was that for?" Then he faced me. I raised an eyebrow at him. "Oh. Hey, Cae. I thought it was someone else. Sorry." He scratched the back of his head.
"You didn't answer my question. Why the hell are you here?! For Chrissake. You disappear and never showed up for months - not even once - and now, you're here? Why!? What the hell is wrong with you?"
Silence. "Umm. I'm sorry. But... Well... You see... This is actually our room... You know... Share?" I just stood there. Listening to him stumble through his words. It didn't sink in quickly. "I know I'm not the first person you want to see. It's just that..." he stood up.
He was walking toward me and it gave me a strange feeling. It was as if my knees would give up on me any second while I was standing in front of him. I can't seem to move. My mouth was dry and My heart was beating fast. He was standing too close.
"We need to talk. I haven't even got the chance to explain what I did. I know you hate me, but please listen." He was right. I do hate him. I hate him so much! But my feelings for him never faltered. I still love him. But I'm not giving in. Not now. Not ever. Not after what he did.
I finally got the control over my body and I backed away from him. "You're impinging on my personal space." I turned to make a run for it but he caught my hand.
I turned around and said "I hate you. You're damn right about that! And if you think I'll listen to you, I won't! I trusted you! I loved you! I gave you everything! And what did you repay me? You walked out on me! You didn't even tell me the fucking reason why!" and I ran to the door. I hear him call after me but I ignored him.
I tried to open Red's door. But it was locked. And then it hit me. Cabel must've contacted Red and gave her the vouchers.
Oh, fuck it.

Cabel's POV
"No, Cae! Wait up!"
What the fuck just happened? Where is she going now? Why does she always run away? "Hey, Caela! Wait a sec! Let me explain!" Good grief. Where is she going!?
We have to talk.
Now.

Cae's POV
After a few knocks on Red's door, I gave up.
I didn't have any choice than to just stay outside Red's door. I can't go back to the room, can I? And I didn't have the strength to look for her all over this place. So I just stayed there. Sitting in front of Red's door. And I tried to push the memory of that night away. But it just repeated in my head like a tape that was being rewinded and played and rewinded again. I couldn't fight back the tears anymore. I sat there hugging my knees.
Remembering that night.
*FLASHBACK*
I parked out the house after that trip to Milan. I was so tired and I was excited to see my boyfriend waiting for me at home. When I opened the door, the whole house was dark. I thought that maybe he's sleeping or taking a bath but when I called out to him, he didn't answer. Nothing. My heart started to race and I opened the door. He wasn't there. He wasn't in any room too. When I checked the closet, only my clothes were there. His were all gone. My heart sank. I went around the house again. Checking all rooms twice before giving up. I wanted to see him so bad. Maybe he went on a trip. Maybe he got rid of all his clothes and gave it all to charity and he's buying new ones right now, in the middle of the night. I was desperate so I keep thinking of positive thoughts to prevent myself from crying. I looked around the house for letters or maybe a note. I checked the telephone but the only messages were from my client and my secretary. I checked my mail and all the drawers in the bedroom. Hoping to find anything he left behind. A tangible object that would explain his absence.And I was so desperate, it was pathetic. So the rational part of me called his friends to ask if they heard anything from him but I couldn't reach Gabe, so I called Matt. He said that Cabel left the house two days ago and he lives in a condominium for now. He also said that Cabel didn't want me to know his address but he doesn't know why. They both thought that we broke up. So I just thanked him and said bye. I drove like mad to the only person I trust with my life.
Red.
"Honey, He doesn't deserve you. Stop crying already, okay? Don't waste your tears on that guy and go to my room, and rest. I'll follow you there with your tea in a minute, okay? And if ever he hears the news that you're back and calls, what should I say?"
"Tell him that he's good for nothing and that he's a mother fucking bastard that should stop bothering us. That, and he's a major asshole who should rot in hell."
"Chill, Babe. Okay. I get it. You're mad at him. I'll tell him that you haven't called me or anything so I don't know. That good?"
"Not really good, but it'll do. Though, I still think my message was better. But yours will do." I heard her laugh while I was on my way to her room. Red was right. I shouldn't cry over a guy that walked out on me like that.
That bastard.
We waited for days but he didn't call. Didn't even leave a message or anything. After that, I moved out of the house and stayed with Red. She helped me cope up for 2 weeks until I got a new apartment that only Red and my secretary knows.
Ever since then, I submerged myself with only my work. Not wanting to think about him.
