Chapter 43 Trust Your Heart

I woke up feeling like my head was going to explode. Ugh, what happened to me? That's when I realised I was in my room. My clothes— Wait, was it all a dream? I was confused. How did I get home?
"You're awake." A voice approaches me. I was confused. What wasom doing here early in the morning? "Um... morning." I was still staring confusedly at her. She just sighs, looking at me. Okay? "I was really worried about you. I'm really glad that you woke up,." she hugged me so tightly.
Oh, I'm not dead yet... That's really.. great? Wait, why does it sound like I want to die?
"Did something happen?" I confusedly asked. I really don't think that was a dream. "Well... It's a long story, but I'm just glad nothing happened to you. So just take a rest for now. Your friend should be waiting for your call since he's the one who brought you here..." She said and kissed my forehead before leaving my room.
Okay, that was kind of weird... I checked my phone and I was bombed with messages and calls from mostly Bella. I decided to give her a call, and she came crying after that, saying that she missed me.
Umm? Did I really sleep that long? I noticed no calls or even messages from him.
Was it all a dream?
That time?
Is it really him?
That day was kind of peaceful. I was just resting in my room, doing nothing. My mom told me that I've been sleeping for 2 days. Okay, that really is something... Was I too tired? I don't really remember doing anything tiresome...
Nolan visited me that evening. I was more than glad.
"It's good to see you're finally awake. I was getting worried." He chuckled as he touched my cheek. Okay, now he's acting weird. Nobody actually told me what really happened, but I don't know why they seem to be hiding something...
"Yeah... how's your dad?" I asked, and he just smiled weakly. "He's doing better after that day, I think." I was expecting more, but I don't really want to pry into his family business anymore. And I'm really curious about Nicolas... Where is he?
"I'm going back to my hometown with my dad. He decided that he wanted to be treated there. It was actually a relief when he said that.. it feels like a miracle happened. And I wanted to thank you for it. You helped me enough. You help him to regain... I don't know if I could handle being away from you though." he said jokingly about the last part.
So he's going back, huh? It's really a short time, but I was glad to know him.
"That's good to hear... I'm just really glad that he's okay. You shouldn't thank me. I really don't do anything special." I said truthfully.
"Nah, your existence is more than a blessing. I guess this is goodbye?" He said and pulled me into a hug. It's a relief, actually. "I'm going to miss you." he whispered softly. I don't want to let him go. "You know you can always call me, right?" I tease him, hoping to cheer the mood, but he just looks sad.
"Yeah... but it wouldn't be the same..." He sighs and stares at me. I wonder what he is thinking now. "Promise me something." he whispered again.
"What?" I was curious indeed. "Trust your heart."
He smiled and kissed my forehead before finally leaving. I can't even ask him what he means by that... That got me wondering... Trust my heart? What is he referring to? Wait. What about Nicolas? Is he going back with them also? I can't help but feel scared... I'm going to lose him.
I can't bring myself to talk about Nicolas to Nolan. We bid our goodbyes and he promised that he'd stay in contact. I really don't think our meeting has been that long, but... It's weird to see him go. I somehow feel sad...
Maybe because he looks just like Nicolas? I'm not entirely sure... Nicolas never contacted me once. I'm beginning to get worried. Is he okay? What is he doing? Will I be okay? What should I do? Those thoughts keep me from sleeping. I decided to try and call him, but I couldn't reach him.
Did he block me? I was hurt indeed.
Is this what it's supposed to be now?
That night, it was the first time I cried that much. It feels more like I have lost something precious to me. It hurts so much I hear my own voice cracking.
He left.
I don't know that I would be this broken even though we're not even dating... It just feels empty. I feel as if I've been dumped, only worse.
Could it be that I'm finally losing my mind?

    This is a good and nice book. The plot twist is so WOW. So many unexpected circumstances and I like how the story ends. What a rollercoaster ride of emotion. You guys must read this story. Now, I browse into your work and start to read the "Love me, Love me not." Thank you for sharing your work here.

    I’m not a fan of this work at first that’s why I’ve been putting off starting it so long but it gets a lot better as it goes, I can assure you that! And now, this book has become one of my favourite. I really enjoy reading and I highly recommend this. I have no complaints. “Youth” love sure do brings back a lot of memories 😆 and I really love the setting, it’s cute and wholesome, I have butterflies in my stomach the whole time. Still, I wish there’s more of this book...
