Thinking of You

Episode 8

Earl said to me. He holds my both arms and he kissed me I pushed him and he cried in front of me. Because ever since he has a strong feelings for me. He don’t know how to say.

"To be honest while making love with other girls. You're in my imaginations. I can't stop thinking about you." Earl said to me

And now his heart was full of regrets. I decided to left him at his condo.

I went back at our home and still we didn't talk to each other. Martin leaved the house. I went inside our room to take some rest. For the whole day I never received phone calls or even text messages from Martin. I’m so annoying to him. I’d never calls him or even sending a private message. Yeah both of us has an ego.

Martin went back at the house but I never feel his spirit. Yeah we slept at one bed but we didn’t talk. He never embrace and kiss me before he sleep. Early in the morning he didn’t cook breakfast for me. And no love letter and one rose from him. At the house I was thinking of him. I missed the old Martin. He changed a lot after he met Earl it’s because of jealous.

One night I went on the ocean. I saw the old Martin he swims on the ocean while waving his right hand and smiling at me. It’s was an imagination. I lost my discretion. I’m trying to reach the old Martin while crying. Until I heard his voice.

“Ellery! Come back! What’s happening! Just stop! Wait for me!”

Martin was on my back he tried to save me from my imaginations. I’m closer to death during that night.

“Ellery look at me. Come with me.”

“Martin?”

“Yeah It’s me Martin”

“I hate you”

“I’m so sorry. Because of my ego. I almost loosing you. Forgive me please. How do I live in this world so full of rage and lies. How can I face tomorrow knowing the person I love is gone. How do I live without you”

Martin promised me he will brings back the old him. He will set aside his ego for me.

We went back home. I was thinking of him. Martin embrace me. He cried a lot in front of me. But I decided to left him.

"I'm so sorry Martin. But it's over. Our relationship is not healthy anymore goodbye"

On the following day I resigned to my work. I decided to go back home at my beloved country. Los Angeles California.

"Ellery is that you?"

"Oh hi David"

I saw David my high school friend. He thought Earl and I are in a relationship. O shared everything to him. We became close. I hired as an Accounting Staff. I decided to stay at California with my parents. Until one day. I saw Earl. He went back. Earl wants a second chance.

"Ellery I love you. Please say that you love me. I'm willing to wait"

I called David I shared everything to him regarding to Earl.

"Dave"

"Yes Elle what's your problem?"

"Earl loves me. But my heart tells I'm still in love to Martin"

"If Martin loves you. Where he is?"

"I don't know"

"Earl can swallow his ego. While Martin can't"

Dave gave an advice. I chose Earl over Martin. To be honest while making love with him. I'm still thinking of Martin.

After 3 days Earl proposed to me. After 5 months he married me. After our wedding I saw Martin outside the church. Looking at me with teardrops in his eyes.

The end…
