The Bride Of The Billionaire

Chapter 34: Adjustments

I'm already here but how can I pull myself together? My phone keeps ringing and I know it's Raze. I look at it and again my tears went unstoppable. I rejected his call for the 50th time.

Shit! My heart's totally ripped.

I received a lots of messages from him and mommy Rousey. Arggh! No! I don't have a right to call her that, I don't!

Everyone's looking at me so I took a seat and wipe my tears every seconds.

From Raze: Love, I didn't know that you left already. Why? Did I do something inconvenience? I thought you're just preparing and work early. Why you leave me? Is it because your dad was sick?

He keeps on hurting me, he don't understand.

Conscience: because you didn't explain. You say nothing!

Yeah! That's right! I'm coward.

From Raze: I'm your boss, I want you back. I'm your boyfriend... No! I'm supposed to be your future husband. Love, I need you here by my side. Please, tell me what's wrong.

Answer my damn calls, please! We're happy together right? Why you have to leave?

I can't clearly see his messages since my tears loves interrupting. I feel like my strength were totally gone and seems I'm not able to move anymore.

I do regret but in what case? Do I feel regret because I fall in love with him? No! Do I regret leaving him? Yes but that's the only way to make everything fine again. Shit! I can't read any of his messages anymore or else I won't stop crying.

"I love you very much! K3U! 8 letters for you my love. I'm heartedly saying sorry but I have to end what's between us. I have a valid reason love. Hope you understand." The words I typed while crying and hardly breathing and those will be my last words for him. I blocked him to my contact list and even at my social media accounts. I must do it though I'm against. It's my pain but I can't do things to hurt me so long.

There's much hurt than leaving him and that's forcedly trying to forget him. I'm crazy!

I wipe my tears again when Stacey calls me.

"Hi, how's dad?" I saw how worried she was but I'm really hurt.

"Sis, I'm sorry! All of it won't happen if they didn't use us." Her eyes glow not because of amusement but it's because she's sad and she's sorry.

"I'm fine, that's fine. We're just not meant to be!" I answer and look away.

"Dad's one now. Anyway, your childhood friend Ron will fetch you, he volunteered."

"I see, okay! Thanks sis! You can end the line now, I'll just wait Ron here." I just don't want to hear more. I know, I can't stop my tears.

Raze, if we're meant to be... we'll meet again!

It's hard to be strangers with him again.

I was really scared to lose you but I just did. You're someone I love the most and someone I lost, I'm sorry love but incase we bump into each other in the future and then you have your own family then we'd just smile because memories would flood, that's sad.

Shit! What am I thinking? I'm just tormenting myself. We just know each other for months but I feel like I known him for years. I missed him already.

I look at the sky, were far from each other now but I hope he'll be happy with her.

"Catherine~" it's a kind of sweet yell.

I look back and it's Ron so I wave. He walk out from his car and he's now walking towards me.

He seemed more fit right now, he looks cool and handsome too yet Raze was 5x more handsome than him. Gush! I'm thinking about him again and how dare me to compare my childhood best friend to my boyfriend...e-ex boyfriend?

"Hi Ron, gush! You look great!" I exclaimed like a happy kiddo. As if.

"You're more beautiful yet you looks wasted. What happened to your eyes?" Awww, like before, he's still straightforward and can notice what's wrong immediately b-but my eyes obviously swelling.

"My eyes got irritated! I missed you. How are you?" I say and secretly grin, wishing e would not ask me about my eyes again or else he'll dig every reason of it while I'm in tears stream.

"I missed you too my childhood best friend. I miss old times that you'll cry over a candy." He said and chuckle.

"Yeah! Then you'll give me a lot though mom will scold you then the next day you'll give lollipops to me secretly and I'll hide it so mom won't get mad." I laugh. I remember how cry baby I was and he was my Knight and also my clown to entertain and to make me laugh most of the time.

I wish I'll go back being a kid where I don't have any problem than eating and endlessly playing with my friends but most of the time only Ron and I plays a lot.

"Let's go? Let's talk more later" he said and carry my suitcases and put it inside the car's compartment before he open the shotgun seat. Gentlemen as always!

Along the way he talks a lot while I keep myself great at pretending, pretending to be fine.

"Ron-ron" I suddenly utter.

I just remember the past.

"You always said it sweetly, Cathy!" I smile as he utter the name that only him calls it.

"You still remember it? I still love hearing it!" I'm glad. All of my friends always tease me before because for them 'Lorence' was only a name for a man but Ron² always cheer me up and call me Cathy! That's sweet.

"How can I forget any single things about you? I still remember how you run away from the doctor during the vaccination when we were 3 years old" he's laughing and now even his eyes became so small.

"You should forget that, that's embarrassing!" I chided though I'm laughing too. He keeps reminiscing especially embarrassing memories and crazily laugh at me.

We arrived at the hospital around 7:00 am, I just check them and go home. Ron's with me since he said he isn't busy. I just fix my things and plan to go back at the hospital but before that Ron and I drop at our favourite snack house and we eat there. Waffles, fried and chocolate ice cream again like old times. We do it often especially after school or during snack time which is every 9:00am and around 3:00 in the afternoon.
