“Where have you been? Do you know how worried I am? I waited here the whole night and I did not see you at all. What happened? Why did you leave the school without saying?” He bombard me with all these questions when the answers are too hurtful for me to say out.
“I saw you with Ivy last night. I heard your conversation too”
He stunned at my words, and that explains a lot to me.
“I was heartbroken enough to stay any longer there, and that’s why I left” I can feel that my eyes are feeling watery and tears might fall any moment now.
“Laylea, you have to hear me out. Would you give me a chance to explain myself? Please..”
I asked him in to my house and we sat down keeping a distance away from each other. Here goes the moment of truth, he might be ditching me here and forever after explaining.
“Ivy is my childhood playmate. We grew up together and she is very close with my family. When I went to visit my grandparents during the summer, my parents did not mention to me that they invited Ivy as well. I was surprise when I saw her at my grandparent’s house. She is staying with us for a week too. My family always assumes that Ivy and I are going out in a relationship. I don’t want to disappoint them and that’s why I did not say anything. I do not want you to get misunderstood that’s why I kept it from you. I have been reminding myself not to get involve with her and let the week be over quickly.”
My tears are already falling and I grabbed the tissue not wanting to interrupt him.
“One night, after the dinner.. Ivy and I are hanging out by the lakeside drinking. Everyone is asleep and we chatted for a while. Ivy suddenly took off her clothes and jump into the lake, she urge me to join her and if I refused.. she will wake everyone up knowing that we are drinking. So I did, I jumped down to her naked. We are both so drunk and giggling at all kind of shit. She swam to me and hugged me, we kissed. And from there.. we did something wrong.” Micah looked up at me, checking my reaction.
“Go on.”
Micah looked sad and continue to “explain”, “the next morning, I realized that Ivy and I are
n the same bed.. She said we have sex the last night and she asked me to be with her. I rejected it and she cried on the bed. I am not sure what to do, I have to keep her calm before anyone start knocking and seeing us in that state. After we came back, Ivy has been texting me and I ignore her. I wanted to be with you Laylea, but I don’t wish to hurt you and that’s why I did not bring up these. I am terribly sorry, please forgive my wrongdoings.” Micah came to me and hugged me in his arms. I kept on crying, and pushed him away.
“What you did is wrong, and that applies to me too. I need some time to cool off, please go home.” I did not wish to say anymore in this state..
Micah kept apologizing while on the way out.. He asked me to call him as soon as possible once I have cool down and we can talk about this relationship again.
Chapter 13 - I have decided
I stayed in my bed the whole day, sobbing and using the whole box of tissue. In my mind, I am thinking what am I crying for? Micah or myself? or Gabriel? I am so confused. After a night, I have decided andI called Micah for a meet up..
We met at the café outside the theatre where we have our first date.
He looked happy seeing me, perhaps thinking that we are getting back together.
“I am happy to see your call, and even happier that you chose here to meet up” He said
“Micah.. I wanted to tell you I am glad that you chose to explain yourself over what have happened between you and Ivy. Which meant that you still care about me.. I am thankful for what you have did for me so far, but sorry that I can’t stay with you.”
Micah stared blankly at my mouth, didn’t expect that coming from me.
“We both have fck up moments, you cheat on me and I did something wrong too” He frowned at my words. “In any case, this is over between us. Just stay out of my life”
I stood up and get ready to leave. “Laylea! Wait a minute, I can’t believe you are saying these. And what do you mean by you did something wrong too?” Micah asked. To me, I feel no point in explaining any further since I am letting him go. I walked away from him, and never turn back.
In school, whenever Micah see me, he would try to approach me and talk to me. But I walked away from him. I don’t wish to affect my studies.. the whole school might already know of our break-up. There are girls that begin to approach him, talking to him.
Gabriel has been dropping me a text every now and then, wanting to know my current situation how I am doing, asking me out.. I rejected it. To me, after being separated with Micah, I don’t want to have a new relationship that soon.
2 weeks later, my parents decided to go for a holiday – Paris. Hooraaaaayyy! It’s a week trip. I been talking with my mum about this arrangement, and she is glad to see me getting cheerful again. She know about Micah and Gabriel, I shared with her everything that happened and she understood as well.
-Bzz Bzz- Text Message
“Hey Laylea, how are you? I just got promoted at work and my company has deploy me to Paris and work for a month!”
Woah, Paris too? That’s coincidence
I told him I am going Paris for a holiday with my family too.
He called immediately.
“Hello” I answered
“Wow girl, you are going Paris too?”
“Yeah, I leaving at next Tuesday. What about you?
“Cool! I am leaving this Friday though.”
“Wow, that’s fast. Congrats to your promotion anyway!”
“Thanks a lot! I can go pick you guys up and perhaps we go for a dinner?”
“Hmm, I should probably ask my parents about this and get back to you. But if it’s not convenient with you it’s totally fine with it. Thanks for your offer!”
We agreed on the meet up and hang the phone.
Chapter 14 - Starry night
Today is the day! leave here and enjoy myself for the week. I am sooooo excited!!
After checking in, I received a text from Gabriel. “Hey! What time is your flight reaching? I am free today to fetch you! ” I told him about my flight number and etc then I switch off my phone and get ready to board.
It’s a freaking 13-14 hours flight on air. I ate, watched movies, and slept all the way.
“We are here!” Mum exclaimed when she alight from the plane.
When we came out from the luggage belt, I saw Gabriel standing right there with a signboard “Laylea Greenwood & Family”. So I signaled my parents to go over and introduced Gabriel to them. “Hi Mr & Mrs Greenwood, it’s my honor meeting you. Please allow me to guide you to your hotel.”
Apparently my parents are pleased by his actions by helping to carry the luggage, joking around and praising him. I kind of feel happy there, knowing him as a friend.
Gabriel droved us to our hotel, communicate with the hotel staff and assist with the check in. “He’s a sweet guy baby.” My mum said to me while watching Gabriel’s back at the counter. I smiled, yes indeed.
Once all the procedures are done, I bid goodbye with Gabriel and went to my room.
I went out with my parents, shopping and eating our dinner nearby. The buildings and all are amazing and spectacular. The sky is so clear that you think you can touch it by just raising your hand. I told mum that I wish to explore the area alone and they can return back
to hotel first. I walked further down a street to find some stalls selling handmade souvenir, from woods carving to handmade greeting cards. I bought some and walked back to the hotel. It’s about 9.00pm, and I have showered and preparing for bed. Gabriel called my cell,
“Hey lovely, are you sleeping soon?”
“Yeah, about to. What’s up?”
“Oh, not wanting to disturb you but I am actually nearby your hotel. So wondering if you would like to go somewhere with me, bet you wont regret it.”
Woah, tempting. I asked my mum for her permission and saying that Gabriel will be taking me out, surprising she agreed. Perhaps Gabriel made them feel secured by today’s action. So yeah, I quickly change and went to meet him at the lobby. He led me to his car and not telling me where we are going, acting all sort of mysterious.
He is driving towards a hillpeak, and I am admiring the view along the way and we reached the destination in no time.
“Close your eyes” He asked.
“Are you pushing me off the hill?”
He giggled, that’s cute. “No silly, I won’t ever hurt you. Trust me”
I closed and he put his hands on my shoulder and telling me to walk slowly upwards.
“Be careful, one step at a time”
We walked quite a distance and came to a point where we stopped.
“Alright, open your eyes now”
A sky with full of stars right in front of me.. “OMG. This is … beautiful”
I can’t stop gazing and admiring. This is definitely top beautiful nightview I ever seen.
Gabriel took a jacket from his car and put on me. Also, he was carrying something else which I can’t bother too much as I am busy appreciating what I am looking at. It’s a basket with hot tea and some light snacks. Wow, a picnic here? We sat down on the bench with the hot tea in our hand. It’s chilling out here, and the tea is just right suitable to what we have now.
“Amazing huh, I found this place when I am trying to explore the town while driving. When I am watching the stars, I think of you. I wanted to share with you the moment you got here. And so here we are! By seeing how you react, I am
