Melissa sniffed the air ,because of all the
laughter and crying at the same time. I
turned to look at Jake, but he didn't look me
in the eye. I understood where he was
coming from...he had tears at the corners
of his eyes, he avoided my gaze as much as
possible. I turned my attention to Melissa
who is still crying because of her late mom.
It must be really painful especially remembering all the good times they spent
together.
I used that promise to my advantage, he
promised to take care and protect me, that
was my mom's last wish. And sir Jake has
been complyıng since then.
I'm sorry maam, I'm leaving this house, you can be at peace now. I will never be a bother to you now.
But..but where will you go? Aurora swallowed the lump in her throat scared of what she might hear.
I'm going to College Ma'am,I will be staying
at the hostel. Aurora let out a sigh, relieved
from what she heard.
Sir really is a nice person, I shouldn't have
tried to come between you two. You two
deserve each other. I will take my leave now.
Melissa,Ronald is outside he will take you
to Juilliard. Thank you sir. "It okay " "Bye
take care, make sure to make your mom
proud. "Yes I will.
The room was dead silent. They both stared
at each other. Jake could clearly see how
sorry Aurora was. Aurora could only see
disappointment in Jake's eyes.They longed
for each other, the past few hours had been
torture for them.
...uh...uh.I'm leaving. "Why? Jake narrowed his gaze at her. "Cause I want to. "Won't
you apologize or say something? "Why
should I? I was jealous and heart broken, just
put yourself in my shoes. Do you know how
I felt whenI saw her embracing and kissing
your shirt? Her words, her insults..I just
couldn't stand the pain, that girl made me
loose my sanity and dignity as an
independent woman.
I understand and get you, but you could
have trusted me. I have never asked you
anything, you could have just given me your
trust that is all I want.
I will ask Bruce to come over to take you
home, you are too weak to drive. "...uh..
uh. "You it okay if you don't want to
apologize. I will get your car ready. Uhm..
Wait. "Yes" "It okay you can get the car
ready. she bowed her head in shame and
turned to the other side of the room crying.
Jake turned her around immediately and
wiped her tears, you know I can't stand it
when you cry Aurora embraced him tightly.
I love you Jake, please don't leave me I
thought you didn't love me and I was only a
burden to you. Please forgive me. "Hey please don't say that you are never a burden to me.
I don't love you Aurora. She looked at him
surprised. I adore you, you are my world, my
everything, what I feel for you can't be
expressed in words.
