ARJAY: "I'm breaking up with you."he said and suddenly looked away from me.
Moweo? (What?) Is what I heard from him correct? SEPARATE?
Is this a kind of joke?
SHARLENE: "Hahaha! You really are Arjay, you have a lot of tricks! Is this your other way to surprise me? Hmm, you, you're making me laugh with your jokes!"I said while smiling and pinching his cheek.
He did not response, he just look away and that gave me a strange feeling that I never expected.
SHARLENE: "Is there a camera here? Maybe you're pranking me? Stop joking, I don't like that."I said again, trying to believe that what I heard from him earlier was wrong.
ARJAY: "I mean it! I want to end this relationship." he said seriously and calmly.
This time, he was looking into my eyes and I saw in his eyes that he was serious about what he was saying.
I was stunned for a few seconds because of shock. I just felt my face heat up and I'm holding back the tears that are about to fall. I'm still holding my emotions, because I still hope that what he's saying isn't true.
SHARLENE: "W-what is this? Just a moment ago, we were happy, right? What are you saying now, Arjay! What is this? Why?"I said, my whole body starting to shake. It felt like I was having a hard time speaking because I was holding back my tears.
ARJAY: "I don't want to prolong our relationship! I can't take it anymore, Sharlene!"he answered.
SHARLENE: "What can't you do anymore? Why? Am I lacking something? Tell me and I'll fill it in! Just don't divorce me, please!"I said and my tears started to flow.
ARJAY: "Sorry! But I made up my mind!"he said softly.
He's really serious! I can't believe this! Why is our scenario suddenly like this? Just a moment ago, I almost peed myself with the thrill he was making me feel. Then suddenly, it was as if several storms had passed by and tears were almost flooding where I was standing.
SHARLENE: "I can't believe you Arjay! How could you do this to me? Don't you love me anymore? Why?"I said, my voice cracking.
He didn't respond anymore, and he didn't even look at me. I couldn't see Arjay who almost turned himself into a handkerchief, he just didn't want him to see me crying. Where was that Arjay? The one who would comfort me, hug me, just ease my feelings.
Is that Arjay really gone? Has the Arjay I loved so much changed? The person who made me smile is now the reason I cry.
The pain.
Until I couldn't take it anymore so I just ran away from him. I felt a little depressed, but I tried my best to gain all my strength and to leave that place. And I just left him standing there.
I looked in his direction again, but he didn't even stop me. He didn't even bother to look back at me. He just let me walk away.
It's really gone. That's probably all there is to it. And I've completely left that place.
I cried non-stop until I realized I was home.
I immediately went straight to my room and locked myself in there, and just a few moments later I heard knocks on my door.
MOMMY: "Sharlene! Open the door! What's happening? Why are you crying?"he said from outside my room.
BOARD: "Sharlene! Please talk to us! What's the problem?"Dad said.
SHARLENE: "Mom, Dad, I'm sorry! But will you please leave me alone for now! I want to be alone for now!"I told them while lying down and crying on my bed.
The pain I feel right now is so bad. I thought it would last. I thought it would be the end for both of us. But it will end.
And that supposed happy night was replaced with pain and sorrow, because of the story we ended up with. A story that I thought had a happy ending, but it didn't.
*end of flashback*
