65 First Flashback! (1/2)

CHAPTER 65

After Dongfang Yue kissed him, he remembered something he didn't want to remember.

Michael remembered her words clearly, that day, when she broke up with him.

-Flashback-

On top of the rooftop, the wind blows quietly as Michael stared at the once beautiful girl he saw in his everyday life. The one who supported him from any situation since he was 15.

\”Why?\” He simply asked as his tears trickled down his face.

\”I need to find myself, please understand that\” The Girl said coldly.

\”Why do I need to understand that!? I was there for you and you were there for me, why!? We promised!\” Michael yelled at her as his tears rained down on his face, his feelings were in disarray.

\”I'm sorry\” The girl apologized before she walk away and went to the door leading down on a staircase.

Michael knelt down on the cold hard ground. Right now, he wanted to give up on everything, he wanted to... kill himself.

\”We stayed together for almost two years, and yet, you left so easily, as if everything we did was nothing for you\” He muttered as he walk towards the end of the rooftop, where the safety railings stood on the cold hard floor.

He jumped on top of railings and stood on top of it before he look down on the far ground from below. If he were to fall from this height, he will surely die.

He look up towards the endless sea of clouds and thought about the good times he had with her. The time when they were smiling to each other while watching Netflix, the time when they went to the amusement park, where she devoured all the cotton candy present in the shop.

Suddenly, he thought about his single mother. Wanona Wilson.

'If I were die, what will happen to her?' He suddenly thought.

Michael shook his head and said to himself \”Why are you killing yourself over a girl that doesn't care for you, Michael? If she can disregard our relationship like that, then she doesn't deserve my love. She is worthless\”

He glance down the rooftop and saw the girl walking with a handsome guy while her arms were clinging on the guy's arm. She was smiling like nothing happened, like he was nothing.

Michael coldly look at them, as his eyes turned something akin to an abyss before it turned back to normal.

He made a poem that corresponds to his feelings at the moment.

\”For even if my heart is barren of affections, Nothing shall forestall my return\”

That day, he promised not to fall in love with someone ever again.

-Flashback End-

That's right, he promised not to fall in love ever again. Being entrance by a beauty is fine, but being in love is a completely different thing.

Dao Partners? Wifies? Lover? Who cares about those? It doesn't matter whether a person falls in love with another person, as long as they don't bother him, everything is fine.

She traded him for another guy, so what's the point of thinking about her now? She treated him with indifference, so he would do the same.

Michael was knock out from his stupor, when Daiyu patted him on his right shoulder. He turned his head towards Daiyu.

She looked quite flustered as she tried to look at him calmly.

\”What?\” He asked.

\”D-Did you know who you just kissed!? That was Dongfang Yue, the hundred year genius! It was rumored that she learned and mastered 10 different Black Manuals\” Daiyu said excitingly.

\”So? Why are you making a big fuss about it?\” Michael asked uncaringly.

\”Don't you know? Her father is one of the three great generals of Grass City!\” Daiyu said in glee.

\”Why are you so excited about it?\” Michael asked her in bewilderment.

\”Well, I would like to know, if you like her?\” She asked bashfully.

\”No, not even close\” Michael replied coldly.

\”What!? Why!?\” She was stupefied as to why this person in front of her, doesn't like Dongfang Yue. I mean, everyone will cut their own arm just to shake their hands with her, but this guy obviously doesn't care.

\”Can you stop asking? It's getting annoying\” Michael said with annoyance evident in his voice.

She bowed her head down in shame and apologize \”Sorry\”

The Waiters suddenly came out of the kitchen and carried 10 trays full of food.

\”I guess it's time to eat\” Michael said with a soft smile on his face.

\”Un!\” Jing Fei replied happily.

Daiyu softly smiled at Jing Fei before digging in.
