Aiden's Point of View

How many days has it been since I last talked to Wyatt? I do not know. Finals are next week and so far I haven't reviewed even one of my subjects. How can I review if every time I read Wyatt suddenly comes into my mind? I will remember the days when we were both happy, including our occasional arguments over small things. I suddenly cry every time I remember them but every time I think that I might be an extra in the love story between Wyatt and Agleen, I just smile bitterly.

Maybe I'm just really an extra in their love story. That Wyatt and I only became so that I could fill the sadness in his chest. What else can I do? Looks like we're really done with this.

Sometimes I wonder if Wyatt really had feelings for me because even he wasn't sure if he really had feelings for me.

How does Wyatt feel when we hold hands? Every time we hug and every time our lips touch? Does he feel what I feel too? Is his heart beating fast, or is it just nothing to him?

Was he happy with me or was I the only one who felt happy? Dang. I do not know. I hope I could read his mind so I would know.

[Exam Day]

I have decided. After this Finals I will go where my Mom is. I won't go there because she asked me to. I did not promise her to go there, either, in fact I refused it. However, after thinking that I should really move on now, I decided to just accept my Mom's offer. I know I wouldn't be happy there but I still accepted it because I don't have a choice anymore. I haven't called my mom yet to say that I will come, maybe I will after finishing the exam.

Our exam lasted three days. After those three days I immediately called my Mom and told her that I was going to live there. She was happy with my decision, she still wanted to know why I suddenly changed my mind but I didn't tell her the reason. She didn't even need to know.

It's 11 AM and I'm leaving tomorrow morning. All the things I need for the transfer are complete because I took care of them all before the finals.

I was sitting on the couch when I suddenly remembered Regie. I also have to say goodbye to him, as well as to Hans because they were good to me during those times you already know...

I picked my phone from the table and dialed Regie's number. After 2 rings, he answered it.

"Hello?"

"Regie, do you have free time today?"

"Hmm... I'm free now. Is there a problem?" you can feel his concern through the tone of his voice.

"Nothing," I shook my head as if he could see it. “Let's meet up at the café near xxx road.”

"Yeah, sure. Now?"

"Um, yes if you have nothing else to do," I answered.

"Sure, I'll go now. See you, Aiden!" Then, he hung up the call.

TOOT TOOT...

I even heard the sound of his car before he hung up the call. Hmm, where can I find a man like him? Someone that would be excited to see you. Someone that will answer your call right away. Will comfort you when you feel down. Someone like Regie.

When I got to the café I was surprised because Regie was there before me. I waved to him before I walked towards him . When I got closer, I sat in front of him with a smile.

"I thought you were fine but why did you lose weight?" He asked as soon as I sat down.

Oh, I'm already thin, did he even notice that I lost more weight?

I suddenly smiled at the thought. He seemed to really know my body if that’s the case.

"It might be because of the finals that I lost weight," I replied.

He sighed, "Fine. If that's what you said. What do you want to order?"

I told him my order before he got up to go to the counter. After that, he returned to our table and we waited a few moments for our order. After a while, our order arrived and we started eating.

He ordered iced coffee and croissant while I ordered a latte and donuts.

"So... Why did you suddenly think of meeting up? You're not usually setting a meet up. If you are bored you will just lay down on your bed and watch a movie, won't you?" He uttered.

I swallowed my food before I answered, "I just want to talk to you about uhm..." I looked away and took a deep breath, "I'm going abroad. I will leave tomorrow, Reg."

"What?!" He scoffed. "And you're telling me about it just now?"

I bit my lower lip and looked at him, "You know the finals passed."

He sighed heavily, "I don't get it." He muttered and shook his head. "Why are you going abroad all of a sudden?"

I shrugged, "My mom asked me to. I don't have a choice but to say yes."

Of course, that was a lie. I have a choice but I still choose to leave the country and live with mom and her family. Reason? I want to forget Wyatt. I know that if I stayed at that condominium I would keep on thinking and remembering Wyatt. If that happens, I could never move on.

He nodded, "I understand. Do you have any other plans for today?"

"Hmm..." I have, right? Yeah. I have to meet Hans, too. "I'm meeting someone, as well."

"Who?" His brows furrowed.

"Just a friend," I answered and sipped on my latte.

"Can I come with you?" He asked.

I looked at him for a moment before I nodded. There's nothing wrong with letting him come with me, right? I'm just going to say goodbye to Hans.

I met Hans at 2 PM. He was shocked to know that I will go abroad tomorrow. And he asked me if Wyatt knows, of course, I said he hasn't. And I don 't have plans to tell him that I'm leaving.

After Hans and I talked, Regie and I watched a movie, and ate outside. It was like a date. He even bought me a teddy bear. It was cute and I liked it. I enjoyed this day thanks to him.

We're on our way to their house. I'm sitting on a shotgun seat beside Regie. He's driving to their house where Wyatt was there. I asked him if it's okay if I go with him to their house because I wanted to talk to Wyatt as well. Not about me leaving but about the two of us. If he ever tells me that he still has feelings for me even a little bit, I won't leave.

After we arrived at their Mansion, Regie immediately looked for Wyatt while I just waited on the couch. I looked around to see if I could see him, but he wasn't there. I wonder if Agleen is here? If she is here, what is she doing?

Regie still doesn't know about Wyatt and me. All he knows is that we had a misunderstanding and I'm here to make things up with Wyatt. I also have no intention of telling Regie what happened to me and Wyatt. What's the point? Our relationship is over and I'm leaving.

"Wyatt's here," I turned to where the voice came from. I saw Regie standing beside Wyatt.

Wyatt's brows were furrowed like he was saying that he didn't like to see me here.

I stood up and smiled, "Can I talk to him in the garden alone, Reg?"

Regie turned to Wyatt and turned to me again before he nodded. "Don't fight, okay?"

I chuckled, "Yeah."

I led the way to walk out to their garden, while Wyatt quietly followed me.

When I stopped and remained with my back to him he spoke, "What are we going to talk about?"

I took a deep breath before facing him. Even before I spoke, I immediately started crying. I want to hug him, kiss him and never let go of him. Damn. If only I still had the power to do that, I would.

"Can we go back to how we used to be?" I asked. "Not as friends..."

He sighed, "How many times do I have to tell you that I don't like you anymore?"

"Can't you... Just like me back again?" I bowed my head and played with my fingers.

I know. This is so childish and I'm being stubborn. Even though I knew that nothing was going to work out whatever I said, I'm still hoping. I'm such a fool.

"Please, Aiden," he held my shoulders. "Don't make this hard for both of us. If you want, we can go back to being friends again."

I shook my head, "I c-can't." My voice broke.

He heaved a sigh then withdrew his hand on my shoulder, "I can't do anything then."

"If you can love her again, why can't you love me?"

"Aiden, please..." He sighed heavily, "I'm sorry but we can't really go back. What will my family say if they find out? I don't want my family to be disappointed with me, especially my grandad. Sorry, Aiden, I'm sorry."

I took a deep breath before raised my head and looked at him, "This will be the last time I will

beg you. If you still have no intention of coming back to me, I will just accept it. But this

is all I can say, after this day when the day comes that you realize that I am still the

one you love, I will never come back to you."

"What are you—" I cut him off.

"Do you want to come back to me or not?" I asked with a straight face. I didn't even bother to wipe the dry tears on my face.

"No," is what he answered.

My tears fell. I nodded with a smile, "I got it. Take care of Agleen. Don't break her heart just like what you did to me. I hope to never see you again."

I mumbled the last part so I don't think he heard it.

"Thank you for your time. I know you're busy but I still bothered you," I chuckled. "I'll go now. Please, just tell Regie that I already left. Thank you, Wyatt."

Thank you for everything. Thank you for the little time with you. Thank you because I was happy during the days when we were together. Thank you for filling up the loneliness in my chest. Thank you for talking to me now because I won’t have any regrets leaving the country anymore.

I thought this only happened in movies and novels, but it also happens in real life. It's just that, it hurts more in the chest when it actually happens to you. That you have to go abroad just to forget because you know to yourself that you will have a hard time moving on if you stay in a place full of memories with that person, especially since you are the only one living in that unit.

I turned and tearfully walked away from him. I hope they both are happy, I mean it.

To be honest, I want him to be happy with me but if he wasn't happy to be with me, then I don't like it anymore. I want him to be happy with someone he likes even if that's not me.
