Chapter 87: what are we?
"Why sel"
"Nothing Julius came to look for you...… I wasn't going to say anything but he was the one there for you when Rìan gave you pain don't lose such a person who helped you heal because of a past relationship" sel said and left
"I will never let go of Julius, he's my friend" Aileen followed her and said
"Aileen friend??? Are you sure you just see Julius as just a friend? Can't you see what's in his eyes?" Sel thought
"What's this new relationship between you and Rìan? Are you guys back together?"
"Our relationship will be clear in a matter of time, I can't put a name to what we're now"
Sel just shook her head
It's been a while since Julius met and spend time with Aileen since he saw Aileen and Rìan together
"It's been a while Aileen, do you even realize that and do you even miss my presence? Aileen I have missed you so much and I wanted to give you space my I am sorry I can't anymore, I want to be by your side" he said as he packaged food for her, he went to her hospital and
Julius saw Aileen and Rìan together and smiling and eating and it hurts
"He's now doing everything I used to do with you, I guess they are back together, how could I think I could separate them? Oh Julius he's her childhood love" Julius said and turned to leave but someone held his hand
"Where do you think you're going? I miss you" Aileen said and he turned
"I came to check up on you and give you this but I guess you have already eaten"
"Then why are you leaving without asking me how I am"
"You look fine" Julius said
"Julius let's forget the past I understand you" Aileen said
"What past? And what do you really understand?"
"It's been a while since you came to see me and I was mad at you but now I am not"
"Oh so you noticed? Then why didn't you make the step towards me, why should it always be me? Aileen you don't understand anything. Maybe I am forcing this relationship of ours, I am the one always making the move, I am tired maybe I should rest a little"
"What are you saying?" Aileen asked
"You seemed busy and I have a lot of work so see you later"
He left
"So are you two back together" Mika asked Rìan but he didn't answer
"How could Julius say that I don't value this relationship of ours?"
"Is it not true? Rìan came back and all of a sudden you're doing everything with him" sel said
"That's not true Rìan can't replace Julius place in my life"
"Then this time take the step towards him or you will lose him forever" sel said
A week came and
"Aileen Julius is going abroad and I heard he might not return" sel said
"He can't do that, he didn't tell me. Where did you hear it from?"
"He told me himself and he's leaving today"
"What time?!!"
"In an hour time he will be on the plane"
She didn't know what to do
"Even after all this you're still not moving" sel questioned
She rushed to the airport looking for him but couldn't find him
"You're not a good friend, how could you leave me? You told me you're never going to leave me behind"
"And I didn't lie, I am never leaving you behind even if you want me to" Julius said and she hugged him
"I saw you looking for me so desperately why???"
"You were leaving and you didn't tell me anything"
"Leaving for where?? I'm only here to pick someone up, who told you?" he said
"Sel"
"She misinterpreted it when I said I was going to the airport"
"Julius I " Aileen tried to say something
"Nina" Julius said
And she turned too
"You came to pick Nina up, how could I forget that you've a girlfriend and she's my friend too" Aileen thought
"You didn't go out with Julius today" sel asked
"Nina is back and he's with her" she looked sad saying that
"Are you ok" sel said and she smiled
"Why won't I?" She asked sel
"Because I saw you debating whether to call him or not"
"Will he come to me if I call? Sel I don't know what's happening to me, Nina is his girlfriend but I don't want him to be there, I have gotten so used to him that I am even jealous of Nina
Sel I want my Julius back" she cried in sels arms
"So you see how it feels now? This is what Julius felt when Rìan returned" sel thought
