Chapter 29 - Ch:28 Us again

Jay's PoV

It's been almost 2 weeks since I left. I don't know how long I can keep up with this.

If not today they'll get to know tomorrow.

I'm beginning to lose hope. And yet a tiny part of me insists that I should make the first move. Waiting for keifer is not easy. Every day I am beginning to think that he will not come.

I have'nt told him that I was leaving but now I feel like should have given him a chance

But it's too late for regrets, isn't it? The silence between us has grown louder than any words, a wall I built without realising.

I thought leaving would bring me peace, freedom, and control over my life. Instead it feels like I've been drifting away with every passing day.

Each night I replay everything in my mind: our nights laughing and talking joyfully, cracking jokes, the words unsaid, the way his eyes searching mine as if he already knew that I'll leave.

I wonder if he thinks of me now, if he's hurt, angry or simply just moved on.

Part of me still hopes, foolishly, that I'll wake up by a message from him saying something I needed to hear before I left. That he'd come looking for me, not out of obligation but out of something deeper...

Even as my hope fades a small flicker refuses to die maybe its not hope for him- it's hope for me, forus

Keifer's PoV

I was supposed to hurt her. Play my part, take revenge and break her heart again and again till she's gone

I didn't expect to fall for her — not like this. Her laugh, the way she looked at me like I mattered, even when I didn't deserve it. She saw something in me that I burried deep down, something I thought was lost forever.

Now I'm left here with this unbearable guilt— that I never wanted to hurt her. But I did. And berfore I realised:

She left.

Every time I close my eyes I see you Jay, something is missing in my life, my world, my heart, my family. And you know what that is Jay?:

You.

No matter how many times I try, I can't bring myself to let you go and now I wish I had never let you know abt the plan of mine.

Cause I regret it now…..

Message ✉️

To my love: We'll be leaving to New York in a few minutes for our company's new opening and I want youmto be the chief guest, Jay

She saw it but didn't respond. Seconds. Minutes passed still no response. And then from my love: I don't know what I am without you

Then she deleted it. My phone rings again.

And this time I wasn't hallucinating it was really her….calling me

(Keifer?)

(Jay…oh how much I wanted to hear your voice) I whisper

A small chuckle, then it fadded (I miss you too. But I won't be able to come)

(Huh—

(I don't know if I can forgive you or not but for the sake of us….I'll forgive you and when I do then I'll be the one to kiss you truthfully) that's all I needed

Before I responded she cut the call. Tears burned my eyes, but not of pain but of happiness and hope that she'll return soon 🔜

"I love you my Jasper Jean Mariano Watson and I am coming for you" I said o the empty walls that once had our beautiful memories. That's right. I'm coming for her and I can't wait
