GUN'S POV

It's a day before the opening of my coffee shop. Some friends are already sending their congratulations for me. I am beyond excited to actually have another dream crossed off my bucket list. It's a free day for me and I decided to go to the mall and enjoy a little before I go through the details of everything needed for tomorrow. 


I was walking around when I got tired and decided to order some chai tea latte at the small coffee shop inside the mall. I saw that the bar tables outside of the coffee shop aren't occupied that's why I decided to grab a seat and rest for a while. 


"G-Gun?" Someone from behind me called me. 


I looked around and the blood immediately left my face seeing Oab standing behind me. I couldn't find the words to say to him... This wasn't a part of my plans, he was supposed not to see me again...


"Can we talk?" He said again.


I don't know why I agreed, It's literally a day before something important in my life and I don't need to walk into a trap that will probably ruin something for me. Oab ordered and I waited for him to go back here, I mean, I could run away...


"It's been so long..." Oab started when he finally came back.


I don't know what he wants from me but with his tone, he seemed like he's not up to something good and he's far too different from the last time I saw him.


"It wasn't really that long Oab..." I told him.

"Yeah, it felt like hell everyday Gun, I never forgot about you, the cafe you went a few weeks back? That was mine now... the coffee shop we always dreamed of" he told me


I remained silent still not finding the right words for him, I clearly did him very bad before...


"I wanted to hate you... It haunts me every time, what have I done wrong back then? I've been slipping away from you at your worst I know that. I have been giving up on you when you were having your own battles but Gun, was that worth all the heartbreaks? Those times you were hooking up" He told me. 

"Oab, we're done with this... we're done" I said when I finally found the courage to speak up to him.

"Why did you came back?" He asked me

"It's my life Oab, I have friends and family here" I told him

"Friends and Family you chose to run away from when you chose yourself" he told me

"I know I've hurt you before Oab, but those people, they accepted my choices when I needed to choose myself, when the earth itself wasn't choosing me" I told him. 

"If you're here to talk about how terrible I was back then... I'm sorry, If you can't forgive me that's alright, I admit everything I've done. It was terrible what I did Oab, but we're done, years ago. Again, I'm sorry and I'm gonna have to go" I said and stood up.

"You're always gonna be at your worst when you keep running Gun, I'd make sure of that" He told me
