Arrange marriage is very common nowadays. My parents are into it right now and after my class I went right away where the meeting will be held on. My first impression when my parents told me about it was that I thought it was okay for me. Dad told...
Christine asked me to accompany her to buy a coffee. Of course here I am, picked her up in her house even though I'm a busy person. While I'm driving, I can't help but to look at her.
She keeps on fixing her hair and putting again and again some pink powder on her cheeks. "Special Day?" I asked. "No" Women are shy to talk about something obvious. "Is it because I'm with you?" She glared at me.. What? I'm just guessing because she doesn't want to tell me.. (￣^￣) "It's not funny.." She told me. "I didn't say it's a joke." "........." "........." THE HELL I'M TALKING ABOUT!!!!! "I-I mean.. It's a joke but its not funny so... It's not a joke.." She smiled a little bit.. I think I saved myself there.. (⌒_⌒;) "I'm going to meet someone and I need your help.." I nodded. Finally she met someone.. "It's actually our first time to meet, I just want to make sure that I'm safe.." I nodded again.. "Yes, don't trust us guys easily.." She just smiled again..
"So where did you found this guy?" Now she's putting some lipstick.. Is that color orange? "Internet.." "Ahh.. He didn't know you're a born tiger yet.." She sighed. "He will know now.." It's a good thing that she's moving on, well I'm just a little disappointed that we didn't get a chance to develop our feelings more.. Or I guess she doesn't want to, but at least she stop looking at Dale in school like he's the only person there.
We arrive in the Café safely. I opened my door car on the other side for her. "Is he here? He should be here first.." "Yes he's here, maybe he's inside already.. You can wait for me he-" "It's okay. I can leave you two after I meet him." We are about to get inside the Café when suddenly someone called Christine's name.
"Christine! Hey, Good thing I arrive in time.." Seriously? Is this the guy? I looked at Christine. "Failed." Well I didn't say it out loud but I know she understand what I said. Men should always be the who arrives first in a date. Never ever be late. "It's okay we just arr-" "We were already here like 10 minutes ago. We just thought we should wait inside for you." (҂⌣̀_⌣́) if this is Dale I already strangled him infront of Yanna. So disappointed that it will never happen.
"-but its okay.. No worries.." So this is the soft side of Christine huh.. "I'll just make it up to you, hehe.. By the way I'm Dale and he his?" "......." "......." "Uhmm.. Is there a problem.."
Of all people she can date and meet, why this guy? Because he has the same name of my bestfriend. Because she can't still move on. Because she can't accept that her one and only love cannot be with her. Well yeah obviously I was like a statue like 5 seconds and I can't look Christine or let's just say I don't want to. "Lance. Nice to meet you man. I guess I'll just wait in my car and I need to finish some papers there.." I smiled to this Dale guy but I didn't look at her.
I'm not that kind of guy who will leave her so I just stayed in the car as I said. I'm not angry. I'm not disappointed. I'm pissed. I know she's trying but this won't work. Ever. She already have the facts but still she cannot accept them. Christine cannot be with Dale anymore forever. Why is it very difficult for her to let go?
I don't know if I spent an hour here already or so because I see Christine coming here. Ugh.. I don't wanna to talk to her.. After closing the door car I was about to start the engine when she suddenly say something..
"I'm sorry.."
"You didn't do anything.. Why say sorry?"
I know I'm a little bit harsh but what can I do? Damm*t..
*sniff *sniff
Don't you dare tell me she's crying.. （￣～￣;） I just leaned on my seat and let her cry just like that. I don't want to comfort her, not because I'm pissed but to make her realized that it's over, that even though she will do everything, its useless. "Why.. Why can't y-you just tell me the r-reason.."
*sniff *sniff
I guess it can't be helped now. I'll just let Dale kill me tomorrow..
"He isn't the Dale you know. We have experiences in the past that had changed us. Dale doesn't have a life before. He's parents are both working abroad and he doesn't have any siblings so he is just with his maid. He doesn't have any friends. How I wished I was earlier too so he doesn't have to suffer on those years."
hmm.. I should not elaborate more..
"and that's when Yanna came.. and everything just changed. I'm sorry but I can't tell you anything more.."
I hope now Christine would understand..
