Jennie's POV
Night time. On a bridge.
"Do we really have no more chance?"
Sadness was filled on her face. I felt something in my heart.
"Is this really the end?"
She held onto my shoulders but I still didn't respond. Mixed emotions filled me.
"Is this really our end?" Her voice cracked.
My heart ached. I couldn't answer her questions. I held back myself from speaking. I think I'll lose it if I spoke. Holding my pain, I bitterly smiled at her and I slowly noded.
Hear tear droped and I shifted my focus away from her.
You're not gonna cry. You're not gonna cry. You're not gonna cry.
I repeated those words in my head distracting myself.
I noticed her cover her face and she started sobbing.
Shit. It hurts to see her like this.
Little did I know, a tear suddenly dropped.
Oh.
It was mine.
I wiped away my tears. I shouldn't cry. Now not.
"Whyy?" She managed to say in the middle of her cry.
She gripped on to my shoulders tighter. She slowly looked up. Her face was so sad. Her eyes were teary. I was hurt.
I didn't know how to answer her. I was speechless. All I did was smile bitterly. I wiped away her tears and shushing her calmly.
"Don't cry shhh..." I stroked her cheeks.
"Maybe in another life, destiny will favor us...." my voice cracked.
Was I telling that to her? Or was that really for me?
Then, she finally stopped crying.
Suddenly, she put out her hand towards me. I was slightly confused.
"Hmm?"
"If this is really the last page of our story, can I have a last dance?" The gloomy tone in her voice was evident.
I reached her hand and noded.
I placed my hands on her neck and she placed hers on my waist. She pulled me closer, and we were already hugging.
She started humming on my ears and our feet followed the beat.
We were in a park at night. I felt the breeze of the wind as I listen in her humming.
We were swaying left and right, dancing under the moon.
I was leaning my head on her chest as I followed her lead.
I felt her shirt get wet. Shit. I couldn't hold it in anymore. I cried on her.
Why? Why is destiny so fucked up? Why can't we just be together? Why did we end up like this?
Questions filled my head as I cried.
She continued humming, and now stroking my back calming me down, as we continue to slow dance.
"...You said it right.., in the next life..there would be an us.." she suddenly spoke.
"So don't cry baby..."
"Because I will surely find you no matter what."
That made me stop crying.
Yeah. I shouldn't cry.
I looked up at her. Our faces were sad but I tried to smile.
I shouldn't be sad because we will end. I should be happy because it happened.
I placed both of my hands on her cheeks and caressed them. Then, I made a smile on her face even if her eyes were still frowning.
"Find me in our next life." I told her, smiling.
She leaned towards me and our lips crashed.
Our last kiss. I thought.
I smiled in our kiss and I felt her smile back.
As our lips separated, we stared at each other for a while.
"In our next life..." she raised her hand, showing it was a promise.
"In our next life." I answered her, placing my hand on hers and holding them.
"Goodbye." She said.
"..yeah...goodbye.." I answered.
Our hands separated, as we separated our ways forever.
