Until His Last Breath

Chapter 16

Kairo's POV

Anywhere you are, I am near
Anywhere you go, I'll be there
Anytime you whisper my name, you see

Where every single promise I keep
Cause what kind of guy would I be
If I was to leave when you need me most

What are words if you really don't mean them when you say them?

What are words if they're only for good times then they're done

When it's love yeah you say them out loud those words, they never go away

They live on
Even when we're gone

"You know, if you're inlove, then you're inlove. There's no point of hiding it" Akki said as he put down his phone.

I put down my guitar and sighed.

"I can't"

"Why don't you just try?" he said as he sat down my bed.

I sighed again. "I don't think I can"

"Yes you can, then you'll never get hurt after" he said as he was comforting me, but yet he was readying me.

"The point is, I might hurt someone, I might hurt her" I said and drown in my deep thoughts.

He took my guitar and strung it.

So, don't be afraid to let her show
Your true colors
True colors
Are beautiful like a rainbow

He sang in an utmost tone. No wonder he's a great singer.

"You know, you don't have to push anything dude, I'm clear with my decision. It's for the best"

"well, I'm not gonna push you" he said while raising his hands in defeat.

"We can have her though"
"Yeah, we're willing to"

We both looked at the direction of the door where two heads were peeping in.

"aww!" they both exclaimed as I throw each of them a pillow.

"So, what's your plan?" Akki asked as he lean on the headboard of my bed.

"Nothing" I shrugged.

"What if she likes you?" I suddenly looked at him as he said those.

His words was still processing in my mind.

What if she likes me?
What if she has feelings for me?
What if it is not just one-sided?

What if?

I don't know what to do, I don't like that, and yet, I want that.

It's making me frustrated, why do I live like this?

Why?
I don't want to hurt her.

"I don't know" the only word came out from my mouth.

"You gotta think of that dude" he said as he fixes himself and left.

It seems so unfair. Why do I have to feel this if I can't have it? Why do I have to live so special if I can't maintain it?

I don't want her to be hurt, I don't want her to cry. I just want her to be happy.. Even without me. I don't want her to feel pain because...

Because I...

I love her.
