Chapter 535 - Where Are You? (2/2)
”Edward, I will be skipping classes today because I'm not feeling well, so you can go without me. Also, I want to be honest with you about certain things. Last night, I gave a good thought to everything and realized what I really want…
I'm really sorry, Edward, but I can't reciprocate your feelings. I only like you as a friend and it will remain like that, because unknowingly, I already have someone I like, and I only realized this last night.
I'm in love with him. I am in love with my private doctor.” Cali straightforwardly declared without batting an eye.
Edward's forehead creased as he furrowed. He was caught off guard, but he tried to control his emotions and managed to give Cali a smile.
”I understand and I'm happy for you, Cali. But I hope we can at least still remain friends. You know you can always lean on me as a friend whenever you need anything.”
Cali nodded then whispered, ”Thank you so much Edward for understanding.”
Edward no longer stayed there and soon bade goodbye to Cali.
”I hope you are fine by tomorrow. See you tomorrow at school then…” he said with a forced smile. Cali walked him out of the house up to his car.
She did not go back inside the house afterward. Instead, she sat on the bench swing placed on the veranda and looked into space. She was not by herself. She wanted to see Rui, but she did not know how.
”Where are you?” she unknowingly whispered and started sobbing again. Cali picked up her mobile phone from inside her pocket and tried to Call Rui once again but still to no avail.
She felt like crying but stopped herself because everything that happened was her fault because she was stupid and could not acknowledge her own feelings that everything had come to the point where Rui had to leave her.
Cali stood up and walked back inside the house, wondering how she should spend a day without Rui.
She ended up going back inside her room, but she imagined Rui was there scolding her why she did not go to school. She was so used to his presence every time, that him being gone like this was making her restless. She very soon went out of her room and looked for Selya.
”Did Rui call already?” she asked.
”Not yet, ma'am.” she answered. Her new private doctor finally arrived and Cali welcomed her.Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click #%!d(string=14191303206660205)/where-are-you_%!d(string=49882409017080849) for visiting.
”Rui endorsed me as your private doctor and explained your medical condition clearly. Here is my number. Make sure you call for me should you experience any discomfort while you are not in the house like at school or outside anywhere…” the doctor reminded her, and she only nodded.
So she could now go out anywhere and whenever she wanted? But why did she feel sad?
Before she would probably feel happy being more carefree like what she wanted her life to be, but now she did not even feel like going out. She only wanted to stay at home and wait for Rui's arrival because she did not want to miss any opportunity of meeting him.
