To Run Away Is What He Did (Aroha Series #2)| COMPLETED

Chapter 14

I stayed at the rooftop until it was already dark. When I made sure that there are no tears left to cry, I stood up and cleaned my clothes before I left.

I used the elevator because I'm already exhausted to use the staircase. When I reached the ground floor, I walked through my car. I clicked the keys and went inside as soon as it sounded. I held onto the steering wheel and lean towards it. I sighed.

I'm already tired of everything. I'm tired of crying. I'm tired of heartaches.

Is this a sign? A sign that I should really stop loving him?

Yes, I guess this is it. I should let go of him. I should forget and move on. Helping him makes it even worse. I thought if I helped him I could eventually forget how I really felt for him. I thought I would soon move on, but I was wrong.

I wish I never met him in person. I wish he didn't become my friend.

Does he consider me his friend?

I got back to my senses when I accidentally pressed the horn. I shooked my head and wiped my tears before I let my car ran.

I maneuvered my car at it's 20's because I'm scared to see him. I might just cry looking at him.

Is he already home?

I traveled for almost an hour even if Hyuna's apartment is just a 30-minute drive from my house. I parked the car slowly at the garage. I may be disturbing him.

I swallowed the lump on my throat before I used my keys to open the door.

The lights are opened. It means he's home.

My eyes darted at the door of my room when I saw it was half-opened.

"M-MJ?" I walked towards the door when suddenly it opened.

"Hi, sis! Bogoshipo!" She kissed me on my cheeks.

My eyes widened.

Ate Katie is here? Did she see MJ?!

"I have a surprise for you!"

She grabbed my wrist to get inside my room.

"Tada!! I bought you a lightstick!"

She smiled and clapped her hands.

I'm in my poker face. I didn't even smile.

"Yah! Why do look like you saw a ghost? Didn't you miss me? Aren't you happy that I finally paid the lightstick I broke?" She tilted her head.

I didn't reply. I stayed calmed. How about MJ? Where is he? Is he staying with Hyuna tonight? What if he'll be here? What would Ate Katie think?

"Yah, Yeodongsaeng! What's wrong with you?" She shooked my shoulders.

"Apayo?"

"Ani, I'm not sick Unnie."

"Then what?" She asked raising her left brow.

By the looks, she's worried.

"I'm fine, unnie. I'm just tired. I met a friend today and you know, I'm not used to driving a car." I laughed awkwardly.

She sighed.

"That's a relief. Let's eat dinner now. I bought your favorite." She winked and excitedly went to the kitchen.

I followed her. Still, MJ is in my mind.

"Ah, yeodongsaeng! MJ is not yet back right? He's still trending on twitter. I wonder where he is" She giggled and devoured what's on her plate.
