Arms (II): the waiting

" Mum! I'm home!", Freya said with a force smile...
"omg! Are you alright?! Where that hell have you been?!"
"Mum.....I will officially break up with James tomorrow...I will meet him"
"No!  No...! It's been 2 months...you've waited for him, wanting to see him! No! I don't want to see you lifeless for another 2 months! Please!"
"I'ts okey mum...I will be fine. Really...you have to trust me..."


Mrs. Truburn just walked away without saying a word....
"If that will make you happy, if that can change you to who you were 2 years ago...fine" she said, finally..

Why is the wind so cold? Why is the sky so dark like 2 days ago, the day she met the stranger? Why is the trees at the park looked sad? 
Clutching her hands together, feeling nervous. What if it turned out the damn way she never wanted..that is...she can't say the word 'goodbye'...."he'll be coming soon......in a few minutes...he's never late.."


" Heyy, James..."she shouted.
" Ermm...heyy...!" he shouted back from a distance, walking cooly like he always did......'like he always did...'
" ha..ha..it's been a long time...err..how are you?"
'He looked thinner than he was 2 months back then', she thought..
" Just tell me what you want?"
Sadness suddenly filled her... 'he'd changed...a lot'
"I err....I just wanna know if you're err...okey.. and i guess you are now"
....James just remained silent....
"and I.....I wanna break up with you. I mean officially break up with you. I can't stand any longer, waiting for you...thinking of you...I just can't!!" And tears began to flow from he 'beautiful eyes'...that's what he used to call..
"ohh..I see. I'm okey with that. So that's all?"
"that's it? you're....not even regret for what you've done to me?"
"no...not at all. I'm happy with my life now. I'm happy with her"
"I'm glad to know that", Freya said with a smile, but tears kept flowing down.
"If that's all...I have to leave now. She's waiting for me...I'm sorry i can't spent a longer time with you.."
"ohh..so, this is the end. Goodbye.."


Before James could turn away, Freya turned away first.. " I'm not gonna see him leave like I did...I gonna walk my own way", she thought.


Suddenly, someone grabbed her by her arms..
" Please....don't leave me.....I'm not fine! I'm sorry! I just couldn't face you anymore. I've been waiting for your call or whatever. Yes, I'm waiting. I'm happy that I have the chance to see you today! I'm sorry that I've hurt you. I never mean to. I do this because I love you.."


Frozen, she turned around to face James who is crying like he did last year when she got into a car accident. His tears, his voice, his eyes were unforgettable.. they're just so perfect. Perhaps those were the reasons she fell for him....


"Please don't do this. Everyday I've cried for you. and I'm trying to move on starting today. I'm trying to be strong...Please let me go like I am right now. I don't trust you anymore. I know what you just said are lies, aren't they?? Please tell me they are...", trying to stay tough, but she lost.."Let me go....."


After her last words, he let go of her hands and Freya ran away, leaving him seeing her running away....she'll be gone.....and he'll be gone too...........


"I'm sorry....please wait for me....", James whispered.
