Red String of Fate | B.E

Chapter 8

Win's Pov

I'm hanging out with my friend James and Cleo, you know talking and walking around talking about what happen to our life.

I've known them ever since I landed in California, but we recently lose our friendship over the years.

They saw me getting some snack in 7 eleven just this morning and decide to talk to me after all this years of being separated.

"Dude, you look fine, but my boyfriend is much fine." James said while sipping his ice coffee.

Oh yeah, James is gay and have a boyfriend that look like he doesn't age.

"Really? Quit rubbing your boyfriend infront of us, were single bro."

"Geez, it's not my fault that you two haven't got any men, like I do." James said dramatically flipping his, long imaginary hair making us chuckle at how stupid he look when he does that.

"What about Win, have you got to see your girlfriend in childhood?" Cleo ask taking a bite of her bagel.

"No, but I'll be visiting her in June." I said happily, really excited for June to come.

"Honestly Win, let her go, she probably f-"

"Blah blah blah, I don't care, I know she won't do that 'cause our love for each other strong. I know it." I said, having enough of people saying I should just let her go, like she's nothing to me.

Cleo then lean in to James and whispered something to him. I don't know what they were saying but I heard something like. "Distant relationships."

"We get it, but, just incase you get hurt, were right here beside you."

"Thank you....but I won't be needing it."

"Ya sure?" They question.

"Yes." I said with full confidence.

We kept on talking other things till I notice it was already 6 pm.

"Hey guys I have to go, my family and I have a family bonding around 7. Bye."

"Bye!"

Timeskip

Getting ready for the event today, picking out an normal. Going downstairs to see Could sleeping.

Going in my car driving to where my dad text me the address. Stopping at huge mansion, it was a little more larger then mine. Actually they look the same size.

Ringing the door bell being answered by woman I haven't meant in years. "Auntie Maggie!" I hugged her tightly, missing her in years.

We pulled away from our little hug, seeing my parents and her husband Patrick. "Is Billie here?" I ask and she nodded very excited.

She let me inside the mansion letting me see the bright living room. "Glad you could make it dear." I gave uncle Patrick a hug and Finneas who just came downstairs. I sat down on the couch between my mom and dad.

This is probably the most exciting moment in my life, I'm finally getting to see her. In years, people keep telling to just let her go, but now. I'm never letting her go.

I wonder what she will look like after those years without seeing her, I bet she will still have the same ocean eyes and long blonde hair-

"I'm home!"

Someone yelled from the front door and I'm guessing it was my love coming home.....but why does her voice sound like-

"Billie!" Auntie Maggie stood up and hug Billie......Billie Eilish O'Connell.....s-she's.

"Mom, Dad meet my boyfriend Brandon, we've been in a secret relationship for a year now."

Brandon came out around the corner, introducing himself to all of us.

I can see her mom face froze and her dad too even Finneas is. The O'Connell family turn to me, only to see me crying.

Billie had finally notice me in the back, having a shock, but it quickly change to a friendly smile.

"Hey Win, what are you doing here?"

She ask very cheerful, while I look down at my shoes, not wanting to see the others. My parents also knew about this, so there's no secret that I made the promise to Billie when I was a kid.

"Oh hone-" I cutted my mom sentence off by standing still not looking at anyone, but the carpet.

"I'm gonna go now." I mumble loud enough for them to hear.

"But dear, you haven't eaten yet." Auntie said trying to make me stay and make things work out with us.

"I'm full Auntie, thanks for having me here."

I stomp pass Billie and Brandon, shutting the door close going in my car and drove off.

People were right. You should have let that someone go.
