Both Kieze and granny B stopped in front of a huge house, has a front yard full of flowers and green grassses,a backyard where she had no idea what's in it. It's full of different colors. The house stood out among all the houses at the neighborhood.
A blonde lady came rushing out of the house, ready to carefully guide granny b. Kieze just stood there waiting for them to enter.
" What are you waiting for? Come on in" said the blonde lady while signaling a hand gesture to come in. It's already 6:46 in the evening and she should be at home by 7:00 which is her normal schedule but this time is excempted. She may not know much about them but still she wanted to know what it feels like to enter a cozy house. You see, her parents aren't really the type who'd get all bubbly and sparkle, they're more gloomy where their eyes show no interest in the world.
She gets excited as she pass through the door. "Excuse me" she murmurs as she handed over the groceries to Mrs. Cooper,the blonde lady.
"Omy, I forgot the books. Why, clumsy me" Granny B chuckled and headed to the living room.
"Make yourself at home Ms. Willows" she said with a smile guiding her to the living room. Kieze doesn't know the fact that Mrs. Cooper knows her since she was a baby and she can't just hide how happy she is she got to see her inside the house. Of course Kieze was surprised how she knew her name but she shrugged the thought of.
She was gazing. Looking around with a sparkle in her eyes not know what'll happen next. She took a step and another and another until a shadow of two is seen in the corner of her eyes. Slowly, she moved her head to their direction and to her surprised, she saw her boyfriend and of course Hennessey Cooper, daughter of Mrs. Victoria Cooper.
She was speechless and doesn't know what to feel at that moment. She just stood there with no hint of emotions. All her excitement turned into a black hole till she decided to do the best thing to do in her place. With her head down she whispered enough to hear it clearly"Uhm, I think.." (faces Mrs. Cooper) and with a smile, she continued saying," It's already late, I think it's time for me to go home, bye granny B" and with that she maintained her pace and got out of the house and went staight home.
She didn't know that Hennessey lives there and then again, she doesn't know anything about their neighborhood. She laid on her bed with tears running down her cheeks. It broke her heart, she didn't even look at Zest straight in the eyes. This time, her heart sunk. She remembers all the memories they had together, all the things they've done together as a couple for 2 yrs and now it's gone. "what do you expect Kieze? You knew this will happen sooner or later ...but I really thought he's the one,the one I could hold onto for the rest of my life?" she said to herself.
*******************************************
2 weeks passed and after a week break, it's a beginning of a new sem. The day of examination ended.
After what happened, Zest explained himself to her through text and that was the end of their conversation. She forgave him and in the end, she decided to end it peacefully, she wanted to end it with a smile in both of their faces. Even with the 2 yrs they had together, she still have to let him go.
Meanwhile, Zest recieved a text from K to meet after class at the gym. He wasn't sure what will happen but he was ready for it. Zest is not really a bad guy but he had his reasons. He was suppose to end their relationship after she met Hennessey but he was scared. He felt bad about hurting her.
Two of them met at the exact time and it was a pure silence for almost 5 mins.
"It's fine Zester. I'm stronger than you think. It's not your fault you wanted to be happy. Thank you... for everything. Let's not start a new relationship. It'd be best if we stay as.. you know what I mean" Kieze started. She said that straight and sincerest. " That's all I wanna say, bye Zest."
Her chest finally lightened, and all her worries are finally gone. It ended where it all started. She was happy.
Nel, who was waiting at the gate was so proy of her and gave her a hug. They squeked together while holding both hands which got the attention of some students getting ready to go home.
"I want pancakes" Kieze pouted. "Oh sweetie(pats her head), of course we'll get pancakes after we get our schedules for the next sem, now off we gooo" she said pushing Kieze towards the the entrance door.
The faculty room wasn't full which indicates their timing was perfect. Some students already got their schedule and a few are only inside. They faced their adviser and without a word, he handed over a piece of paper for both of them. Both chuckled at their adviser's action. He must've been tired handing over the schedule making him automatic. As they got their paper, the guy next to them caught Kieze's attention which made her stop what she was doing. She noticed the familiar figure somewhere.
"Let's go for the pancakes, wooo" Nel said pulling Kieze's arms. The familisr figure got his paper and on his way to the door while her attention is still focused on him till it finally came to her.
"..?
".. K ? You aight? Are you that hungry ? "
"BOOKS!" she spoke her thoughts loud.
