THE LOVE WE LEFT BEHIND

Chapter six

Adrian's pov

I have never thought I would see the face I have longed for , for the past three years and now after all this time ,she had somehow appeared in front of me . No warning ,no preparation ,nothing .

I didnt know what to do at that moment or what to say to her .

I stood there and watch her walk away ,I wanted to pull her back and hug and tell her how much I missed her ,but I couldn't move ,I couldn't even think properly .

Gosh she has changed ,she look more beauty and mature

but her eyes ………. They still look so innocent and pure

Adrian ?

I turned around .

Marcus was standing a few feet away ,staring at me.

What's up man ,you good ?

Yeah ,I'm fine ….my answer was too quick

He raised an eyebrow

You sure ?,cause you don't look good to me

I'm good

Okay ……he said and glanced at the direction Amara had disappeared

Who was that ?….. he asked

Someone I known

Ohhh ,someone you know?

Yeahhh

Marcus folded his arms

You almost let her fall , then your were both staring at each other like you were both seeing a ghost .

I laughed akwardly

It wasn't like that .

Then what was it like ?

I didn't answer ,because I didn't know how to explain it …..

How was I suppose to tell him that the girl who had just walked away was someone who had been a huge part of my life ,someone whose laugh I hadn't heard in years ,someone I had convince myself I had forgotten . Except the moment I saw her ,I realize I had been lying to myself ,I hadn't forgotten her .

Not even close .

Adrian ?…..Marcus called me again

Hmm … I answered

I don't think you have been listening to me .

Of course I'm listening to you

Ok ,so what was I saying ?….Marcus asked

I scratched the back of my head akwardly …sorry I have not been listening

You spaced out again .

Yeah, I'm sorry dude

It's okay, I know you are not okay but I wont push you to tell me the reason why.

Thanks man

Yeah

My phone suddenly vibrated in my pocket

I pulled it out

Hey what's up

I'm good and you ?

I'm fine …..I replied

Where are you guys

On campus

Do you have any plans tonight ?

Not really ,why do you ask …

They are hosting freshers party for the new student this night ,do you wanna come ? My girlfriend asked

Nah ,I'm not coming .

Why ?

I don't feel like going I just wanna rest tonight …

Ohkk then ,hope you okaay

Yes I'm ,just a little stressed ..

Okay then.

Yeah bye ,love you .

Love you more

Is that Vicky…. Marcus asked

Yeah

I gotta go adrian ,see you later

Alright dude ,byee

I wondered if she was thinking about me too .

If she remembered ……

If she had ever ……..I stopped my self

Its didnt matter now

Whatever happened between us belonged to the past now

At least that what I had told myself for three years ,but seeing her again today had made something clear . Some feelings don't disappear ,they simply learn how to stay quiet and mine had just woken up again .
