Bitter-Sweet Life [Complete]

Realize something...

Time passes by and it was already our winter vacation

I remember how I would always sulk during winter vacation because I always thought that Chad died around this time..

But as I remember that now,

I can't help myself but feel pathetic...

Sigh, I guess I'll be celebrating my winter vacation like how I used to, ALONE on christmas...

I know I am having a very emotional time but that was interrupted when my cellphone rang... And '1 message' popped on the screen

"Huh? Who might it be?" was what I thought

From: Myka

Subject: None

Hey!!! Before christmas lets go shopping!!!

It'll be fun I promise! 10:30am 'kay? o((^.^))o

I giggled at myself

Well, I guess, there are still things that changed...

Much to my surprise, Myka would always visit along with Joyce and Marie

Sometimes they annoy me but sometimes they would help me with the household chores :DDD

And on the day before christmas we went shopping

Buy this and buy that

We exchanged presents and so many more

Like what she said, it was fun!

But it's kind of lonely 'cause I won't be with them since they'll be with their 'boyfriends'... -_- Though Myka said she'll just be busy doing things at her house

-Christmas-

God, it's so boring!!!

Now that I think about it, I wonder what kind of things I do during this times before...

I think I'd probably sleep all day not caring what kind of day is today... ^^'

Thinking of pathetic thoughts, all of a sudden, the door bell rang...

"Hmm... I wonder who is it..." is what I thought

I headed outside and saw a mailman

He gave me a letter that is, obviously, addressed to me and then he left...

I went inside and I started to tear the envelope...

When I was able to create a small opening, something slipped

It was a small piece of paper

I bent down and picked it up and I decided to read it

Hi Jane!

Merry Christmas!

How has it been?

Well, anyway, this letter I sent to you is my Christmas gift ;)))

I hope you realize something through this...

-Chad-

P.S

It's from your beloved someone :P

"I hope you realize something" What does he mean by that?

I pulled out the letter he was referring to

I was surprised on how it look...

It was crumpled... Like it was intended to be thrown away... I open the letter and decided to read it...

XX-XX-XX

Dear Jane,

Hello! How's your relationship with Chad? Are you planning on your marriage? Haha. I guess you two are already lovey-dovey.

Oh yeah, by the time you get this letter I'll probably would be in Canada. I think I'll be staying here for a year or two, I don't know. All I know is that my dad wanted me to study here so that I'll be able to meet some of our company's investors. Since 65% of our investors lives here at Canada. Also he wants my education to be of high caliber or something like that... Sometimes, I really don't get him... Hey, since I won't be able to contact you for a long time I just want to say that I

The letter was unfinished

But I think this letter is from... The 'beloved' that Chad mentioned is...

Jake...

Wait, tears? Why?

Why can't my tears stop falling no matter how much I wipe it?

When Chad broke up with me, I didn't even shed a tear... And yet, just seeing this unfinished letter from Jake made my tears fall endlessly

Don't tell me that 'I hope you realize something' was...

Don't tell me Chad was referring to my feelings?

I-I guess he must've realized it sooner than me...

Really, really... I'm so cruel...

Chad, I'm so sorry...

Chad's P.O.V

Hmmp, I guess by now... She probably received the letter... That slow girl is so cruel, she actually made me a cupid even though she knows how much I love her... Shit! I should've prepared myself for this...

Crap! It hurts... I guess there's a lot to sacrifice just to make the one you love happy...

I cried it all out when my cellphone rang...

Huh?

"1 inbox"

I wiped my tears... And I asked myself of who the hell might it be..

I grabbed my cellphone and read the text

From: Jane

Subject: Thank you

Thank you for everything. Really, thank you. You're simply the best, Chad.

God damn! Don't go saying that I'm the best when I hid that for a long time... Shit! Wrong timing... Hmmp, I guess this is the only thing I can do for her...

End of P.O.V

My cellphone rang

From: Chad

Subject: Friends

We can still be friends, right?

Sent to: Chad

Subject: None

Thank you, Chad

Sorry Chad if this are the only words that I can tell you...

Time passed... Classes are ,once again, here

Today is the first day of classes...

Chad and I are laughing merrily together...

"Hey, don't tell me you two are-"Myka blurted out but we cut her off and said

"Best friends! We're best friends" we both said smiling

Obviously, Myka is all weird out but we just laugh it off...

Everything is all right... I guess...

Right now, I'm allowed to move forward. Right?
