It's been 11 months and I still haven't seen Lily and I always thought that Lily might have returned home but her father was just hiding her from me today is Vernon's band concert, Lily can't be absent from the concert because Vernon is Lily's friend, I have to go even if I don't want to be in a crowded place I went out of the house and hung out at the place where Lily gave me a gift *Breathe In* "It's really beautiful here" when I went there I immediately thought of Lily I miss her and I really don't know when she will come back I wanted to cry but suddenly someone called me *Phone ringing* "Hello who is this?" "Hello Rome bro, are you coming to our concert?" "Vernon How did you get my number?" "Lily gave it to me when we first met" "Oh, I don't know if I can go, but I'll try because I also listen to your music" "Thank you, just call me when you can come and I'll take care of you, The concert starts tonight at 7pm see you there" "Yeah thank you see you later" *Phone hang up* I will try to go to the concert and hope to see Lily there
I went to the coffee shop and Emily and her friends were right there "Rome what are you doing here?" "Emily, I just went to buy coffee and I have something to tell you. Can you come tonight? Lily's friend has a concert." "Wait is it Vernon?" "Yes if you have free time" "Ow yeah sure can I bring my friends because they idolize that band" "Oh yeah sure I'll take care of it" "By the way, Rome, Xyria said that she saw Lily yesterday at the mall with her father" "Wait is that true?" "Does it look like Xyria is going to lie to me?" "Of course not" I can't believe what Emily said that Lily is home and where can I find her, maybe I'll find her in the concert "And she said there was a man with her" "Wait, she said she can't have a boyfriend" "I don't know, maybe it's just a body guard who looks like a young man" I hope it's just her body guard because I can't accept that she already has a boyfriend "I'm going home Emily, I'll see you later" "Yeah, see you later, just call me" I went home first to spend time in my room I wanted to rest but I was thinking about what Emily said earlier and I feel like I want to go to the mall maybe I'll see her there today I didn't think deeply and quickly took my jacket and went to the mall I hope to see her there even if I only see her for a while
when I entered the mall there were a lot of people because Vernon's concert was going to be held there I'm trying to find Lily and maybe I'll see her and unexpectedly Venon called me "Rome! You came so early the concert is later, we still have 4 hours to prepare" "Yeah I know I'm just looking for someone" "Is Lily the one you're looking for if it's Lily you're looking for she left again with her dad and her boyfriend" I was shocked by what Vernon said and I told him that if what he was saying was true "Is that true?" "I don't know if it's his boyfriend or body guard because he looks like a young man" Emily and Vernon said the same thing that there was a young man with Lily, but hopefully it was just a body guard "did lily tell you that she can come to your concert?" "Yeah, she told me she could go" I hope I can see Lily later because there will be many people later at their concert so I called Emily to go to the mall *On the phone* "Emily come here to the mall, let's wait for Lily here" "Are you serious, their concert hasn't started yet" "Just come here" "Ok ok wait for me" I waited for Emily and her friends to arrive and I told Vernon I had someone with me "Vernon I have friends with me, can they also join me in my group seat?" "Ow yeah sure as long as you are Lily's friend I will take care of you"
When they arrived Emily, Vernon made us sit in our seats and told us to wait "Just wait there and by the way Rome I will talk to you later" "Oh yeah sure" I felt heavy in my chest when Vernon said he would talk to me "Emily I'm nervous" "Why aren't you the one to sing?" "I'm nervous about what Vernon will say" "Oh don't worry I'll be here if anything bad ever happens, we're with you" We waited for the concert to start and I'm not nervous when Lily is with me I just felt nervous today, When the concert started I tried to look for Lily and I smelled something familiar When I was looking for it, Vernon saw that I was not paying attention to their performance so he signaled me to look at him "Emily did you smell that?" Emily didn't hear me very well and I just looked for that smell, I could smell Lily's perfume and unexpectedly I saw Lily "LILY!" I tried to approach Lily but someone blocked me "You can't approach Lily" I was blocked by Lily's body guard and suddenly Lily came to me and said "Who are you?, I don't know him babe, let's go back to our place" "I thought that was Rome" I was shocked by what Lily said, maybe she's just avoiding it and it's impossible for Lily to forget me and my guess is true that Lily has a boyfriend I went to Emily and asked me where I was "Where did you go?, you disappeared suddenly" "I saw Lily and the one you say is her body guard is her boyfriend" "Wait is that true?" "Yes, I saw them in the back" When they look, they say there is nothing "You're just imagining it, you miss Lily so much" when I turned around they were gone I suddenly felt pain in my eyes and also in my chest I just experienced this pain "Rome, are you ok, why are you crying?" "Emily, I'll tell you the truth, Lily and her boyfriend are here" Emily looked for it and couldn't find it Emily just hugged me and said "Rome I know you really saw Lily, only you know and only you saw her but whatever you saw, can you just accept that Lily is happy with someone else?" "I can't let her go she's the only girl I want to be with for the rest of my life" "I know but there's nothing you can do, there's someone that makes her happy now" I hugged Emily tightly and poured all my tears on her, The light I saw was stronger than my light, so I choose to stay away rather than be with someone who is not as bright as me.
