Somewhere down the road. Our roads are gonna cross again..

Harry's POV

Jennifer started to cry. And it worries me. I grab her hands from her face.

"Jen, are you okay? What happened?" I told her.

She wipe her tears and smile at me.

"Harry.. I"

"Wait. I'll show you something." I grab my stuffs to show it to her.

"Look. Our plane tickets for Greece. Our departure is at 8pm. We still have 2 hours to go" I told her with a big smile on my face. I can see her getting teary again. Maybe she's just happy.

Then I grab a big box, My surprise for her.

"And this is for you my love. Before I came here I went to a dress store, and I bought you this." I told her showing the white dress I bought.

"Wear this to our wedding day okay? You'll gonna look so divine. I can't wait Jen. I can't wait to marry you." I told her as I kissed her hand.

She just looked at me, bit her lips and breakdown to a sob. It's a different cry. And I felt something is wrong. I felt my heart ache.

She bends on the ground crying in her kness.

"I'm sorry Harry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry." She said between her sob.

I lean to her, and wipe her tears.

"Why are you saying sorry? What's happening? Tell me. Please."

She looked at me and held my hand..

"I can't.. I can't run away with you Harry. I'm sorry." She said crying.

I felt a pain in my heart. I wonder what's happening to her.

"Are you messing with me? Please tell me you're messing with me." I said trying to smile as I hold back my tears.

"No.. Jason.. He's dying. And he's asking me to stay with him. " she said.

That's it. Tears stream down my face. I stand up. I can't beleive of what I just heard.

"And you'll gonna stay with him? How about me Jen? How about us!! Were getting married right? Please Jen. I can't... I can't lose you."

She stood up and lean closer to me.

"Harry he needs me. He don't have any family. He was there when I needeed someone! Maybe it's time that I return all his kindness to me." She told me making me hard to breath.

"And how about me? I need you too Jen. I need you more than anything" I told her as I looked down.

".. But he needs me more.. He's begging me to stay because he's dying Harry. This is so hard for me too! Because I wanted so bad to be with you, to be married with you. But I just can't.. Because it's unfair to him."

She told me with tears in her eyes.

I looked at her, thinking. I can't lose her again. I just can't.. I walked closer to her and held both of her hands.

"I don't want to let you go. I can't let you go. I don't wanna lose you again Jen. Not this time." I told her with my face full of tears.

"Harry.. You won't lose me again.. Because you never did. Your always in my heart.. You know that.. But I just need to do what's right.. Because before you came back, he was the one there trying to make me happy. Trying to be the best guy for me. And I'm not blaming you for that. Because I know you came back for a reason.."

"For a reason? What's the fucking reason? If at the end of all of the heartbreaking conversation we had, all the pain in our hearts, all the struggles we've been through.. Were still not gonna end up happy.. Is that the reason?! Why we met again?" I said almost screaming because of the pain i'm feeling..

"No. Maybe it's not the right time for us.. Maybe we need more time. Maybe we met again for you to explain everything to me, to free my heart from any doubts about you, to take away all the pain and anger. And you did that.. But I guess it's another bad timing."

"How much time do we need Jen? I've waited 3 fucking years!! And I promised myself that when I see you again, there's no way I'm gonna let you go but it seems. I broke that promise again.. " I told her

She cupped my cheeks and tried to wipe my tears..

"You don't need to let me go Harry. Maybe we just have to wait until the right time comes along for us. Because I know someday it will. Someday we'll have our own happy ending. Maybe not just today."

"But I'm afraid Jen.. What if the right time never comes for us?"

"It will. I beleive it will. And you should beleive too." She told me

"Why does love have to be this hard?" I said trying to stop crying.

"Because it's not true love if it's not hard." She told me still holding my face.

I looked at her thinking this might be the last time I'll see her again..

"So this is goodbye?" I told her as I burst out in tears again..

"No.. this is me saying.. Till we meet again.."

I hugged her super tight. Like it's the last time. We just cry and cry. Not wanting to let of hugging each other..

"I love you so much Jennifer Lynn. This is hard, How can I live knowing I won't see you? Knowing I can't kiss you.. but I'll wait Jen. I'll wait for you. I'll never stop loving you. Never "

"I love you so much too Harry. So much. Maybe someday..."

"Yes.. someday.." I told her as I pressed my lips to her. I don't want to break our kiss. I just want us to stay like this forever. But it can't be.

We broke the kiss. Were just looking at each other with tears in our eyes..

I lean closer to her and kissed her forehead for the last time..

She turned around as I looked at her walked away.. until I can no longer see her.

I sit back at the bench and just let myself cry until my eyes get tired.

Jennifer's POV

I rushe to my car after I walked away to Harry. I just cry there. Then I decided to go back to Jason..

I went to his room and I saw him still awake.

"Jennifer.. I knew you'll be back.. I know this is hard for you.. but thank you. Thank you for staying.." Jason told me as he held my hand.

"Take a rest now. I'm just here." I told him as I sit beside his bed.

3 weeks later..

I woke up not feeling well. I've also been puking at the bowl. I wonder what's happening. And I remember the last time I had my period. Shit.

I use a pregnancy test to be sure.

"Positive" I mumbled as tears stream down my face. I felt so happy. Then I remember the last time I had sex with Jason. It was the night before Harry and I made love. I put my hands on my forehead.

I wonder who's the father. But I guess it's Jason.. I went downstairs to tell him the goodnews. I want to make him happy.

"I have a good news for you Jason." I told him as he looked at my side and smile.

"What is it? Your making me excited.." he said.

Then I show him the pregnancy test.

"I'm pregnant. You'll gonna be a father." I told him. I was expecting him to smile and be happy.. but he's face turned to a sad smile.

"Congrats Jen."

"You look unhappy. Don't you want a baby?"

"I want so much. But I can't. I'm sterile Jen. My sperms are unproductive. I can never have kids." He told me with a sad smile.

I widen my eyes. And I can't breathe.

It's Harry's...
