Chapter 40: THIRTY-NINE
I woke up to the voice echoing around. I could feel the coldness of my hand. I was immediately greeted
by the warm palm of the person next to me. I woke up and his smile opened up on me. This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
"We're here," he said with a smile.
I just smiled in response to him. We arranged some things before we went down. I inhaled the breeze
that touched my face.
It has also been a few years since I left this country. I put on my shades because of the light hitting my
eyes.
Soon someone was supporting me. I just smiled at him. He is really very gentleman. During the two
years he was with me, I saw that he was serious about me. But there is still something missing that I
cannot explain.
"OMG! GIRL! WAAAAH!"
It was only then that I heard Sapphire's yelling in the distance. She was already shouting so the people
around her looked at her.
Two years ago and is she still like that? I just shook my head and smiled.
I got to where they were. She was with Jeremy who was even more handsome.
"Oh? Where's Francine?" I asked her.
"According to the actor, she just doesn't want to be in the car," Sapphire said.
"Looks like you're close ah? Maybe you'll trade me for that?" I joked with him.
"Duh! She's so very stagy! Don't do anything else!" she said and stared ate me.
I turned around, I almost forgot Xymon.
"Oh, you have a roommate? You don't even say it's embarrassing!" she whispered once quietly.
"Yep, he's Xymon. Bee is Sapphire my bestfriend, and Jeremy her -"
"My driver," Sapphire said smiling.
"Hey! You thick my handsome driver!" Jeremy yelled at her. Xymon just laughed.
They shook hands. But I saw Sapphire's eyebrows still raised.
"Stop me Angel from raising your eyebrows. He's my friend," I said and walked with Xymon.
"Friend? Uhmm Okay!" she smiled and walked away.
"I thought you were in relationship," she said so we stopped.
"You must be patient with her, she just lacks sleep."
"Ca va," he replied smiling
("It's okay,")

After we rested, I decided to take a walk with Xymon. I didn't know that he understood Tagalog! Syet!
He studied so that we could better understand each other because I had a hard time speaking French.
I did not expect him to study for me so he can use that too.
He's my friend. No one is interfering with us. He has been support me since I came to France.
I stopped at the park. Everyone flashbacked to me.
I just smiled when I remembered that. Gone, just that memory.
"Are you okay?" Xymon asked, so I just smiled.
"Yah. I just remembered something," I said and smiled.
He held my hand.
"I'm here, you're sad or happy,," I laughed at him because he turned to Tagalog but he was proud
because he knew.
I also got used to it that whenever I was sad, he would hold my hand. I already told him everything. So
he knew everything I went through.
I just smiled at him and thanked to him. We walked here in the park while watching the kids play.
"Ill be back," he said smiling and left. I was left stunned. Where is he going?
I have not yet taken a step when I collide. I have not seen him yet but my heartbeat suddenly
quickened when I smelled his perfume.
He looked at me with wide eyes. Like me, he was stunned as well. We stared at each other for a few
minutes. It was as if time had stopped.
I'm happy. But it also suddenly brought back sadness and pain. To this day, I am still in pain.
"H-hale?" Jace said incredulously.
After two years, I saw him again. What has changed for him is huge. I smiled. It must be gone. I'm
okay.
"Jace ... Long time no see," I said smiling.
But instead of smiling, he suddenly hugged me tightly. I was stunned by what he did. I can not move. I
was just facing behind him. Before he kissed me on the head.
I'm a little awkward. Why is he doing this?
He stared at me, I could see in his eyes the excitement and joy of seeing me.
Why? Why are you doing this Jace? When is everything okay? I'm okay with the life I have now.
"Bee, I'm back-"
Jace and I looked at each other at the same time. He was just looking at us while carrying Pizza.
"A-ah ..." I pulled him closer to our seat.
"Jace is Xymon, bee he's Jace. My f-friend," I said with a smile.
Before I saw his fun, now it has changed.
"I'll go first, I'll wait for you," he said and went to the car.
Xymon left us here. He was still stunned.
"I-I'm sorry. I have no intention of ruining your life Hale. Sorry," he said.
"Nah, It's okay," I said while smiling.
He took a deep breath before speaking.
"I'm really sorry, I didn't know he was here. Nice to meet you again Hale,"
Why? Why did he do that? Why did he hug me? Why do I feel he still loves me? Why did he look at me
like that before?
there are many questions in my mind. I have left all the pain since I left, will it ever come back because
I came back?
I'm confused, why is that? When I am okay. And it will happen.
We got home unknowingly. I immediately went into my room and lay down.
I don't like it anymore but why is it like this? What really happened?
"He still loves you Gurl," I was surprised by the newcomer Sapphire.
"Huh?" confused I said.
"Jace still loves you. Did you know since you left, he tried to follow you to France? But he did not find
you there," she said and sat down next to me.
"He did everything he could to find and talk to you. But he failed because Francine was blocking him
then," he added.
I looked at her confused.
"He's married," I said sadly.
"But you are the one he loves Sis, their marriage is another fake! Because the judge did not sign it!"
she said to my surprise.
But really? So I left here to stay away from them. Change my life even though I am broken.
"Is Jace hopeless, Meghan?" she asked. I took a deep breath.
"I'm okay Sapp. I'm okay with my life now," I told her.
"I tried to forget everything and get up. Even though it was very painful and difficult for me. I slowly
accepted everything," I cried. I could not help but cry.
"I-I begged him before, that I almost knelt down to him. Just don't let him marry Cyanelle. I-I didn't give
in to him, I just couldn't do anything because that was his decision. S-so even if it hurts. , it's okay. I can
just see that he is happily fulfilling his dream, "
"That every night I think of Cyanelle next to him, that every day that had passed I am not with him. It
hurts me so much. Especially when I heard from him that he just used me. To take revenge. To his
mom and how he told me over and over again how many times he and Cyan had sex while we were
together. That's when I was devastated. "
"G-girl ..."
"S-so tell me, if I should go back to him?" I cried.
Suddenly all the pain in my chest returned.
"F-forgive me Hale, forgive me,"
I was shocked when someone spoke behind me. I saw Jace standing in the doorway with tears in his
eyes. What is he doing there? How did he get in?
He approached me so I stared him in the eye. He touched my face.
"Please forgive me for everything. I did not mean to ruin you life. I was stupid and I did that to you! But
always remember, you're the best thing that I will never forget in my life, I love you Hale. I love you so
much. "
He then kissed me on the forehead before he finally left my room. I was left stunned.
