CHAPTER FIFTEEN

"Are you still in love with me?" It was hopeless... but it was all I could ever ask.
"I've never stop loving you, Jane. Whatever happened, or whatever this familiarity of these things we do... I know by heart that I do remember you. Like you've always been here-" he held my hand and placed it on his heart... I felt the deep beats and slow breathing. I couldn't help my tears.

"I love you. Please remember me."

I buried my face in his chest; my tears continuously fell until his shirt was already wet. He took it off, and as expected... he was still as lean as ever. His bones lingering through his body... his eyes suddenly sparkled and his hair looked perfectly messed up. I wanted to sink myself in him. I never wanted to end this moment.

Ring.
Ring.
Ring.
Ring.

But maybe it wasn't even meant to happen.

"Hello,"
"We've just arrived here at the airport bae. We're already waiting for a cab all the way there."
"What!?"

I jumped in fright. I hang up the phone and stood up and tried to put myself together... then I suddenly looked at William.

"I'm sorry." He stood up and took his wet shirt on the floor, then he came close to me and hugged me.

"I want you to be happy, Jane. I want to see your smile. I want to see the girl I love be happy even at the least of thought that I can never have her..."

I was holding back my tears so hard. He pulled off and took another shirt from his suitcase. After changing, he left with a fake smile on his face... and left me... like a kid finally growing up and finally giving away his favourite toy to another one in need...

Things really did change. Even though how hard it is to accept, but we can't do anything about it. Because that is how fate entails them on how they would be. maybe this was really meant to be.

Goodbye, Will.
