Strangers Again (One Shot)

Strangers Again

"Let's stop Gabriel ", I looked at you, with your beautiful eyes, with your face glowing with so much beauty even without any make-up on and the only word left in me is "Alright "...

We were College that time. Same class. We were always on the same page. Although we were like strangers at first. after a month or so we decide to be together. Were inseparable. We know what we like and what we dont like. We were perfect. Little that we know that was our flag.

After we graduated you've become the Engineer that you dreamed for and i was a office worker. We our had time together within our grasp. But i guess happiness dont last that long.You being progressive in your field of work and me try to get a promotion and that gave us a huge setback.

By that time I knew we were drifting apart. "Im coming home late because of meeting in my workplace" as i gaze through my cellphone waiting for you for our 3rd anniversary together, thinking "Why are we like this? Was there another ? How on earth did you forget?"

"Im sorry i did not forget, im just busy with work thats all. Belated Happy Anniversary", that's what she said. "Oh okay? So are you free this upcoming week? Might not hurt to celebrate a little late" with me hoping that youll said yes even you have a hectic schedule. "No sorry, see you later. Im gonna be late for work and please dont wait for me im gonna be home late". And there you go leaving me with your untouched breakfast.

With that said those moments of you being forgetful of our lifetime events had been consistently happening and because of that i came to check you and your work. And see if you're doing fine. Surprisingly yes you're doing fine, too fine at all and you're even smiling. But i began shedding tears when i saw you with your co worker steals a kiss from you and you didnt even bother. You were not into me anymore. Because of that i drank that day sulking on what the hell happened between us and why you cheated. Days past and still i pretended like nothing happened and just let her tell me the truth and hoping we can still work it through. And she cracked.

"Let's stop this Gabriel ", looking at you, with your beautiful eyes, with your face glowing with so much beauty even without any make-up on and all i can say is "Why?"

"Because i dont love you anymore. Were not the same as we are on college. And i met someone who can really know me and love me. Yes ive been cheating on you! Cause you know whats bad about you ? Everything! You cant even get promoted. So i just wasted my 6 years only to settle with someone like you? What a trash. Goodbye Gabriel"

*Gabriel's Wife POV*

I really hate what we have now. Its not like the life of us is hard but i feel theres somethings off, Thus with that the memories of everything we've been through is like being a candle being lit and slowly making its end. I have been falling out of love from Gabriel and thats why i started entertaining my coworker. And that's when everything finally comes to an end. I dont want to end it that way but think theres no other way around. I am happy for all those years. Really, But i cannot love him the way i did before so im ending it this way.

*End of POV*

And She left, bringing all of those memories away with her leaving me nothing else but pain.Its true that I had not been promoted but still, I didnt give up because i got her. And for the times that we were together i thought we were a team. I thought that she really counted me in as a partner but i guess not. After all of that the only word that came out of my mouth was "Alright."

After a year of being in a slump. Im still checking on her. Well i guess im still into her, all of her friends well are my friends too and saying that she is getting married and all. I guess it cant be help. I plan to see her one last time.

"Congrats on your wedding. I hope youll be happier with the guy you chose to be with, with that said you and i will never be the same, I guess we'll be strangers again. Goodbye, Monica,
