Chereads / The Aching Hearts / Chapter 4 - chapter 4

Chapter 4 - chapter 4

Isabelle imitated her father to show Leo how he would have reacted. At this demonstration they began to laugh! To these bursts of laughter, Isabelle's father said to them:

-Eh! Young people! I would like to know what makes you laugh so much.

And they laughed even more, to the point of annoying Mr. Patrick, but Arielle was there to calm him down.

-Isabelle, I must go away to do something, before your father comes to drag me by the ear!

-Stay one more minute

-No, I can't, Isabelle, it's important!

-Okay, it was getting late anyway…

-Goodbye, Madame and Mr. Patrick, I was delighted to know you!

They said good-bye and Leo went away!

Leo had an appointment at the embassy, because he was planning to go to university abroad, he hadn't told anyone, but he was going to tell Isabelle if we had accepted her request anyway! Dressed like a daddy's son, he went to the embassy; Unexpected, is it luck or was he too elegant? We accepted it! In a month he has to leave...

Tomorrow is Valentine's Day, and Leo still doesn't know what to do! He has no money to take her to the restaurant, but thinking back to what Isabelle said, he may have come up with an idea! 'A rose, candles, wine and what else!' thought Leo. ''I have to go to bed, tomorrow will be a good day! '' All night long, thinking of Isabelle, made her have a beautiful dream, but also get up late this morning! It is already time to go to school, where all the guys today have become romantic, offering chocolates, reciting poems, but, Leo also had a poem to recite, but how to …!!

-Hi Leo!

-Hi, my sweet!

-Touched! If only every day was Valentine's Day!

- Oh, don't say that!

-Okay, but it's true!

-Okay, now let's go in, my sweet?

-Yes! My knight.

In the middle of class, they stared at each other, wrote each other in pieces of paper, made faces without getting tired until the break. "It's now or never," he said to himself.

-Isabelle, I have something to tell you!

-Something?

-Actually, I have a lot to tell you!

-Okay.

-No! What am I saying…? I have a poem for you!

'' How can I say these words to you, So easy for a simple man But, facing a woman so gold standard, Even the most eloquent would not have the words! In these words are summed up My love, and my excessive feelings My desires, what do I say, my great follies My obsession and all my life! When I finish this poem, the conclusion will be "I love you!" "

-Waw! Leo, I don't know what to tell you!

-Just tell me that you love me!

-I love you Leo!

At these words the students who followed began to applaud! It was not the first or last performance of the day!

-Oh, I love Valentine's Day!

-Really?

-It's true that I already loved her, but you make me love her even more!

-About that, I'll wait for you at my place at 8 pm tonight, dinner together!

-Dinner together?

-Yes, that's what I said!

-Okay, see you tonight!

-See you tonight!

On the roof, a table, candles, in the center, a bottle of red wine, two glasses of crystal, as well as the cutlery. It looks like an evening in the White House! It was going to be beautiful!

It's 8 pm, Leo is already waiting at his door. A few minutes later, here she is, all pink!

-You look beautiful!

-I know, thank you!

-we're going, where are we going? In your room!

-No, we're going up, but would you like to go to my room?

-No, not really!

-Ok, now close your eyes, I'll tell you when to open them!

-Ok They went up on the roof…

-You can open them…

-Wow! It's beautiful.

-I don't know if that's what you expected… ?

-No, it's much better than what I expected!

-We sit down?

-With pleasure!

They ate, drank, talked, laughed… the night was beautiful! It was now time for him to announce his departure.

-You know, I never thought I'd have so much fun with you Leo.

-Me too! I have a very good announcement to make to you!

-Yes, what is it?

-In a month, I leave!

-Where are you going?

-I go abroad, continue my studies!

-For how long?

-More or less four years…

-All this time! What about me?

-Don't worry, I'll be back very soon!

-That's your good announcement!? I wish you hadn't told me!

-I know, Isabelle, but it's still good news!

-For you!

The pleasure ended at that moment! The air was filled with sadness, but that's how things are. The night cannot end like this.

-What if we went to my room? To forget this bad news!

-I'm not in the mood!

-Please?

-No!

-Please, Isabelle, just tonight!

-I don't want to!

-Do you really want the evening to end like this?

-No, I don't want it to end like this !

-Then come with me.

He lifted it up and carried it to his room. They came in, then ... Finally, the night was magnificent!

For some time now, Christ has been coming to school regularly, so he learned that Leo was going abroad, perhaps, is that why he came so often... But since then, Leo is so busy that he doesn't really have time to see Isabelle, which made her extremely sad. Not being able to keep it to herself, she went to take refuge with a friend. At Isabelle's home:

-Sweetie!

-Yes, mom?

-Why are you locked up in your room?

-I don't want to go out!

-What is it, my dear? You need to get out of your room, you're a big girl now, Isabelle, get some fresh air, if you're not feeling well.

-Okay mom

After a few minutes:

-Mom! I go out, I go to a friend, Gabriella.

-Okay, my dear, don't come back too late!

Chez Gabriella:

-Hi Gabriella.

-Hi Isabelle, how are you?

-Pretty good…

-What brings you here?

-You know, we haven't spoken in a long time... I wanted to come and see you.

-We're going to sit down?

-Of course.

-So everything is fine? You look a little pale.

-it's okay, it's coming, to tell you the truth, I'm a little sad... you know that Leo is my boyfriend? -No, it's because of him?

-In a way, in a few days time he will go to the United States of America; his preparations do not even leave him any time for me!

-Oh! I didn't know, when is he coming back?

-After four years!

-Really? All this time!

-Yes, I don't know what to do!

-Don't worry, if he doesn't have time for you, find some guys who do, after all, he will leave, you only have his word that he will come back.

-He told me he would come back.

-That's it, sweetheart, you don't know the boys!So they spoke without stopping, until it was time for Isabelle to leave.

-I thank you, Gabriella, for having listened to me, it has done me good!

-To me too, you will always be welcome.

-Okay, bye-bye Gabi

-bye, baby!
