Ian Tristan * ⃣

 

Its been three days since Dad mentioned about my marriage with his business partner’s daughter.

 

I have been avoiding Tessa after that day.

 

I just don’t know how to face her telling her I don’t want to marry her again after promising her that?

 

I’m so confused and ashamed of myself right now .

 

She’s the only woman I have ever fell for still, I can’t be with her?

 

Why is dad bent on destroying what matters to me most.

 

He doesn’t care about my feelings, all he cares about is his business.

 

What type of a father does that?

 

Sometimes I wonder if I’m truly his son.

 

I so hate him for deciding my life for me.

 

I think I know what to do, I have to confront dad .

 

Yes I have to

 

The ringing of my phone brought me back to reality.

 

Very great!

 

The caller ID was almond (Tessa)

 

My hand trembled.

 

What am I going to tell her ?

 

Scared and nervous, I cleared my throat before picking the call to avoid any suspicion

 

 

Ian are you okay? What’s wrong with you? Is everything alright? I have been calling for the nth time now and you weren’t picking up. Are you fine?

 

She blabbed .

 

I ran my hands through my messy hair thinking of an answer to give her .

 

 

Are you there?

 

She asked

 

 

Huh..yeah, uh.uhmm I’m fine almond I my phone was in silent. I am in the middle of a meeting.

 

I lied. I don’t have any option either .

 

 

Meeting? Ian? Seriously? Meeting? Are you fu.cking kidding me? Today is Sunday for heaven sake.

 

Just perfect! I’m now caught up with my own lie. How do I explain this now?

 

 

Y..yeah..I know it’s Sunday, uhhm some of my clients came over . Yes they came to my house.

 

This isn’t you Ian! You have changed for the past three days. Are you avoiding me? Did I do something to get you angry? If I did then I’m sorry. Please just stop ignoring me.

 

Listen Tessa baby, you didn’t do anything okay? I’m sorry..

 

 

Then what’s wrong?

 

She asked in a pained voice. I don’t mean to make her feel this way.

 

 

Nothing Tessa I will talk to you later.

 

 

Okay should I come over?

 

 

I’m busy don’t you get it?

 

I snapped.

 

Shit! What have I said ?

 

 

Look..I’m…

 

 

You don’t need to say anything else. I’m sorry to disturb you. I promise you won’t see me again to bother you. My flight is ready and I’m going out of your life Ian.

 

She was crying, I can tell by just hearing her voice.

 

Gosh! I’m so stupid

 

 

No please.. don’t leave, I’m sorry please Tessa .

 

I panicked

 

 

Have a great life ahead Mr Ian Tristan

 

She hung up..

 

No! This isn’t happening!

 

I hurriedly sped off to my car only to discover the keys where inside.

 

I sigh irritatingly running inside to grab it.

 

I can’t let her go this way..

 

I need to reach her so fast, she can’t leave me .

 

I hate myself!

 

 

 

 

 

Tessa * ⃣

 

I sniffed for the tenth time after I spoke with Ian.

 

I don’t want to believe what my mind is telling me.

 

Maybe he doesn’t want me anymore.

 

I’m going back home.

 

Maybe there, I can find peace

 

I came out of the car as the driver also waited for my flight to take off before he goes .

 

After a while, the plane was ready to take off.

 

I took my sit beside the window seeing the city of Seoul .

 

I’m gonna miss it, I don’t want to admit I’m also going to miss Ian the most . God has it’s plan you know!

 

We were just to meet and path someday.

 

I assume he’s never going to set his eyes on me again.

 

One more glance, the plane took off as I bade Seoul a farewell.
