The Miracle We Met

Chapter 18 - Good Bye

That small note was enough to make me cry. My dream was coming to end soon. That day I don't know when I slept after weeping.

At 8 in the morning, I suddenly woked up when my mother shouted at me. I rushed to the bathroom as I have to leave for Radisson to pick them up at 10 'o clock. We have to reach airport by 10:30am. I got ready by the time. Now I was confused what to wear next. I wanted to look good that day. My eyes stopped at their gift..

I wore that dress which they have gifted along with the high heels. That day I did a ponytail. Next I put on a black jacket. I opened my door..looked around. Once I was satisfied that no one was near the entrance door or near my room..I walked towards the door without making noise. And before closing the main door, I shouted, "Mom, I am going"
"Wait wait but where" she came running out but by then, I was gone in a cab.

At hotel, I called Suho but he didn't picked up. I called Chanyeol, he picked up after 2 rings, "Where are you?" He asked.

"I'm here already. Have you done your packing? Or if it's still left should I come?" I asked him.
"It's almost done. Suho Hyung went to washroom. We will be there in 10 minutes, after checking out. "He notified.

"Okay then, I am waiting in front of the main gate." I hang up the phone. It was extremely cold that day. And there I was.. wearing a dress. Of course I was freezing with cold waves but I had to do it. It was their gift and I had to show them.

I went back inside the cab and started using my phone. Then after a few minutes, I came out again. I tilted on cab's bonnet and was looking at the sky. There was no sign of the sun. I guessed it was going to be cold for a week now.

Soon they came out of the hotel. They were having one suitcase each and a bag on their back. They were searching me so I raised my hand. As they were coming closer, they were staring at me continuously.

"Wow!! It suits you..we did well, right Hyung?" Chanyeol said winking his eyes.
"Exactly..we were so confused whether you will like it or not. But now we are relieved." Suho said smiling.
I just smiled at them.."let's sit now". They kept their luggage at the back of the cab. Driver helped us.

I opened the front door of the car, was going to sit beside driver when Chanyeol came and said,
"Not today.. beautiful girls don't sit in front." He grabbed the door and sat on the seat. I was still standing there, shocked.
'Chanyeol, why?'

"What!! Sit at the back!" Chanyeol instructed me. I hesitantly sat at the back of the seat, beside Suho.

Soon, our last journey, most probably, started. We all were silent again.

"Don't you have any story to tell?" Suho breaked the silent.
"Aaaa..not much today." I said in a low voice.
"Are you okay?" Chanyeol asked.
"Why?? I am okay" I replied with a question.
"You are sounding low today." He said again.
"No..it's not like that" I replied looking outside the window.

We were travelling very silently that day. Usually we used to talk a lot while going  and but wile returning, we rarely talked coz of tiredness. But today it was just opposite.

"That's my school" I broked the silent this time. "Over there, that red building." I pointed out.
"Wow!! Great" Chanyeol said.
"Do you guys too have reunion with your whole batch mates and all?" Suho asked.
"Yes, sometimes. But I rarely visited any. Because everyone else are now well established by now..and I am still on midway in my career. So it feels quite uncomfortable. But I am in touch with a few school friends. And I am happy with them." I told them.

"You have quite a long list of friends." Chanyeol said teasingly.
"You can say so..here we are now." We were at the airport now. We unloaded their luggage. And thanked the driver. After passing through a few security measures, we were inside the airport. I couldn't go further now..it was our parting time..

"I guess that's it for today" I was sounding really low. I was going to miss them badly, I know.
"I hope we will meet again someday." I needed lots of courage to talk. I wasn't able to talk any further. My eyes were filled with tears.

They didn't said anything..that time again they gave me a envelope.
"What's this now?"I looked at the envelope.
"Don't open it here..you can look at it again once you are back to home." Chanyeol insisted.

"Let's take a goodbye selfie together." Suho said.
"Isn't it against your protocol which you said on our first meet" I tried to smile while saying.
"We can break it now."  Chanyeol smiled too and we took a selfie together.

It was our farewell time.

"Hey, I can't promise that I will be in touch regularly but I will try my best to be.. and now stop running away from situations..if it's unbearable still bear it..it will pass away soon..that's what is life. If bad things happen, good things are also bound to happen.. remember it." Suho said and patted on my head.

"Keep singing and talking that's the best way to reduce your stress..and one more thing.." Chanyeol came closer to me and whispered "Don't change your bias..your this bias will be really heartbroken."

My heart stopped beating again, I was speechless again. My face turned red again.

Chanyeol smiled and stepped away.
"I should leave now." I said awkwardly.
"Yes, take care of yourself and your beautiful friends. We will be in touch for sure." Suho said
"Bye, take care." Chanyeol too bade good bye.

They were going away. I was still standing their freezed. I hope I could hold back that moment for a bit long. But soon they were out of my sight.

Silently, I came out of the airport. Took a taxi and straight went back home. As soon as I entered in my room, I sat on my bed and opened that envelope.

There was a pen drive inside it. I connected that pen drive in my laptop..and whatever I saw on the screen..I couldn't hold back my tears..tears started rolling out of my eyes...
