Present day;
Till today, June still believed that the well wisher card she received was from her ex-boyfriend.
Looking down at the card, her tears flow down like a waterfall and her left ring finger is now bared but the rings marks was still there.
She doesn't know when and where things goes wrong between them. She had already meet with his parents.
*******
Yeah, she meet his parents after two months of their engagement.
While she was being welcomed by her fiancee and his father but the looks on his mother face said it otherwise.
She was nervous and fidgety, spent most of the night, thinking who to impressed his parents. Her heart beating so fast like it's going to jump out from her chest.
His father gives her smile and asked, her name, her parents, what did her family and she do, how many family members and so on.
But his mother's doesn't give her a glance, just a simple nod, when her son's introduced Her. She keeps stilled, drinking her tea elegantly and listening to their talked.
When dinner time came, both were asked to stayed for dinner, which they agreed to it but their dinner dishes are not what, June eats, all of them are non-veg and there's no vegan food present, even their salads had eggs(which she's is pretty allergic to it) . Only fruit juices is what she's able to consumed it.
Not wanting to impolite and get on their bad sides, she smiles and thank them for the food.
But was stopped by James, as he clearly know about whatever she eats.
So he told his mom that June is a vegan and she won't be able to eat it.
Finally his mom's speak, asking, "Is it true, whatever my son's said just now? "
June gives her a nod and replied, "Yes".
His mom: Then, why did you still tried to eat it?
June: Because I don't want your hard work in preparing a delicious food go in vain.
His mom under her breathe, " Well this was only for my son and husband not you. "
Her words were unfortunately heard by all of them and June was beyond shocked.
Even the father and son's is speechless looking at the lady of their house.
Then, his mom continued, " You're just only engaged and yet their is complication due to our different taste in food and let you speaks on her behalf while she's tried to pulled the goodies girl card on us and can't she just eat whatever that's being prepared on the table. I don't know what will happen after your marriage, but I hope she doesn't had bad intention towards me and your Dad.
His father gritting his teeth told his wife, "Stop it, your son told you she's a vegan and there is no need to said all those nonsense. "
His mom: Did I said wrong?
Directly looking at June and slamming her spoon on the table, which makes the rest flinched from the unexpected behaviour of her.
"Didn't I always told you to bring or fall for a girl who's the same status as us, James, also always been telling you, I like a girl to whom I don't need to adjust myself who will goes along to whatever I said and do, not a weak girl whom You'll always takes a stand. "
James:Mom, stop it. Dad, I'm sorry but it's better we take our leave and thank you for the lovely dinner.
He stood up from his chair and getting hold of June wrist, he dragged her out away from there.
****
Inside his car, on their way to her home.He strikes a conversation by apologising for his mother outburst, telling her that she's under stress and can go way out pretty sometimes.
June just nods and giving a fake smile, "I can understand her, you're the only child, she has and she wants the best for you but don't worry I'll tried my best to win her heart. "
James thread his fingers with her and gives her kiss a knuckles and told, "Don't let go, we'll fight for our love, no matter what comes in our ways. "
That's what the only things, that June want to heard and keeps on holding tight on him.
*******
Both gives each other a warm hug with peck on lips and bade good night to each other.
Entering her house, she was greeted by her parents, who are waiting and at same time watching TV.
Both parents shift their attention from TV to their daughter, with a smile plaster on their faces and asked, "How was it?His parents? "
June gives them a fake smile and replied, " Better than expected, good parents like you both. "
Her parents gives each other a knowing looks and her mom replied, "That's good to hear and we're happy as long as you are and will always here for you, okay? "
June eyes glisten but trying her best not to let a tears slipped out and faking a yawn, and rubbing the side of her eyes, she told her parents that she needs to hit the sack and bade them good night, but first time without kisses and hugs.
*******
She was brought back from her daydreaming about the past by the sound of her new University bells, that she need to get ready for her class.
She decided to do her master outside the country and she got it in one's of London best University and along with scholarship, which got through by the help of her crush father connection and who's going to be her father in law after two years, unbeknownst to her.
****
The whole day, she got busy with her classes and return back to her dorm by evening.She got a small room and stayed alone by herself. While others shared with one another as they got bigger room.
After finishing with her works and showering, she decided to go to bed but not before sending a message to her parents.
It's already been one year's already, only had a year for her final master degrees. Also she didn't returned home after the day, she decided to leave for her studies.
She suddenly sit up, and smack her forehead for being forgetful.
After her meeting with her crush father @Mr.Mike, they bonded immediately and he was the one who told her to think for further studies outside the country.
After accepting it, she always visited him during her weekend as he also stayed with his wife and son, here in the same country@London.Which she also make it a habit.
Tomorrow is the day for her visiting but she didn't informed him before hand and which will makes him panic again.
When she first come here, she stayed with him and his wife for a week and after that she moved into her dorm.
One day, she told them that she'll payed a visit, and lost on her ways, but being flaunt in English and also he being a professor in a well know university, most of the people know him and ringed him up and told her location.
That day, his wife told her that he got panic and keeps on blabbering nonsense and didn't put his, shoes and runs out from the house after the called and she dragged him back, slapped some sense and after dressing him properly, she sent him to pick her up.
She saw his tan face having a red finger marks and couldn't help but smile at him, which in return she got a flicked on her forehead and both laugh out loud, people gives them a weird glances at them.
Thinking back, it makes her smile and laid back down after sending him a message about her visit.
As she turned, she saw the card laid on her bedside table that she left it there in the morning.
Her face turned sad and remember His last word, "
Don't let go, we'll fight for our love, no matter what comes in our ways. "
Like what He told her, She don't let go but.....
He was the one who let go without looking back.
