Dilan prepared to go back to his country since there was nothing else to do back here. His dad wont be needing his presence again for now and nix was already discharged and well to go.
"Dilan could we leave the trip till tomorrow?"
"Why?"
"I have some stuff I want to tackle"
"Like?" Linax added
"Tomorrow Dilan" and he left.
Betty couldn't deny that she felt empty ever since Nix had left her without a word. She had no idea if he was still mad at her or not. His number no longer went through and she had given up on looking for him. She couldn't still understand how such in a few days nix had gotten a hold of her, she could be herself with him and she felt like he always drove her insane. She feel depressed, she decided to resort to drinking. She drank heavily on that night, she wobbled but she still demanded for more. Nix was worried about her. He saw her recently with the guy he had always seen her with. He clenched his fists, as his knuckles turned white. The man with her left after drinking for a while she stood up but fell. Nix was fast enough to catch her.
He took her up but she held on to him so tight.
"Hey pretty boy"
He saw how drunk she was
"Nix??" she glanced at him.
She smiled and jumped on him
"I missed you"
"I thought you were mad at me"
"Where have you been?"
He hesitated before replying.
"What about your new boyfriend?"
"New boyfriend?!"
"Whose that?"
"The one your always with"
"oh no that's Charles he has a crush on my friend"
"So am helping him"
He didnt reply
"Is that why you left me?"
"Yes"
"Am sorry nix" she sobbed. He hated seeing her like that
"Am not angry again"
She lighted up.
"So your going to stay with me right?"
"No am leaving tomorrow"
"Why? Where?"
"To my home"
"Stay with me nix"
"I can't"
He loosened her grip on him and slowly turned away from her.
She grabbed him so tightly and jumped on him.
Nix knew she was this strong because of the effect the alcohol had on her.
"Don't leave me nix" he could see she was about to break down he was about to say something but she slammed her lips on him at first he was frozen but then he slowly responded to her kisses. They kissed for a long time nix wished that this couldn't end, but then he felt her body turn limp.
He ruffled his hair and he carried her out, it was already getting dark.
He took her home and laid her on the bed. She still held on to her even in her sleep. He tried to free himself but she was too strong. Something popped into his mind
"Betty I love you" he whispered in her ear and she loosened her grip on him. He watched her for the last time and kissed her on the cheek. She turned and caught his lips and kissed him roughly. Nix could feel his blood getting hot. She paused and turned limp. Nix sighed as sweats dropped from Hus face. He turned to leave before she did anything
"I love you nix" and he halted.
