Chapter 3

Chapter Three

Sky was true to his word, he introduced me to his friends as his girlfriend. They laughed at us because they are surprised that after everything and we're still not officially dating. I don’t know that this is what it feels like to be in a legal relationship. Not that our relationship before was odd, but the feeling that I have all the right own him makes me happy. I am his girlfriend, I can’t stop smiling because of that!

I let out a sigh before I went out of my room. I immediately saw Sky who is busy reading a book while wearing eyeglasses. I am sure that that’s just for radiation, to protect his eyes from reading or whenever he is using his gadgets. He said that he doesn’t want his eyes to become blurry, he must keep a 20-20 vision.

I sneakily made my way towards him like a kid before throwing myself to his body and hugging him close to me, the reason for him to let go of his book. Instead of getting mad, he just let out a chuckle and gave my temple a swift kiss.

"You’re not going home?" I asked

He slowly nodded his head, putting the book on the coffee table. He hugged me back, pulling me closer to him making me burry my face on his chest. I felt his lips kissing my head

His soft hand went to my waist, rubbing it. "Baby," he mumbled on my ears.

"Yes?"

"Tomorrow," his voice was cold and manly "I won't be seeing you," he continued.

I felt sad because of that. I am used to having him around my condo unit or his unit. I always see him, almost every day. That’s why it’s sad to know that he’s not here tomorrow. I am pouting my lips as I raised my head to look at him. His pair of black cold eyes are staring at me

"Don't look at me like that, baby" the way he called me baby, it was like music in my ears that I want to press the repeat button because I feel like I'm LSS or something.

"Where are you going?" I tried my best not to show any evidence that I'm sad but I couldn't stop it. I heard him groan before cupping both of my cheeks, I pouted my lips making his brows cross.

"Don't pout your lips, Isabelle" he said hoarsely

I felt sadder because of what he said that’s why I kept my lips pouting.

"Come on, baby," he paused, he rested my head on his shoulder before he pulled me for a tight hug. "I might forget that I still have to go somewhere tomorrow and just stay here and cuddle with you."

I couldn't stop my lips but to smile. Even at the simplest thing, he can still make my day and make me smile nonstop.

"Where are you going?"

"Family reunion, baby" I felt him stroking my hair

"I can’t go with you?” I asked in a small voice.

"You can," I smiled because of what he said. "But you have classes tomorrow so no" my smile faded because of the continuation of what he said.

In the end, we just agreed that he will spend the night here. His things for tomorrow are already prepared. He’s going to Tagaytay where the family reunion is going to happen. I haven’t met his parents personally, even their pictures. All I know is that he came from a rich family. That’s why he has control over the board of the University that we’re studying.

I'm not yet ready to meet his parents, I am only 19 and I'm just kidding when I said that I want to go with him. From what Zabrina has said to me, his parents are strict.

"Hey!" he complained when I stopped him from going inside my room. I raised my eyebrows on him before pushing him softly so he’d go out of my room. Irritation is written all over his face as his brows cross "I am sleepy, Isabelle so move and let me in." I didn’t move or flinch from where I am standing and close the door of my room.

"I have guest room here," I said

"What?"

I can feel the irritation on his voice when he said that.

I said I have a guest room here and you..."

"Should sleep there?" he continued. I smirked while nodding my head. I am leaning on the door of my room while he is looking at me with a straight face.

He looked at me as If he couldn't believe what I have just said.

"Seriously, Isabelle. Move and let me in," again… I stopped him from going inside my room.

"No, daddy. You should be sleeping in the guest room because we're not yet married."

He remained silent.

“You can go and sleep to the guest room already,” I smiled at him.

He raised his thick eyebrows, grinning "We already had sex, little girl. Now you are acting like that," I can feel my cheeks turning red because of what he said. I glared at him before opening the door of my room and going inside. I shut the door in front of him and made sure that the door is locked. I heard him laughing from outside and it just made me feel upset.

In the end, he didn’t have a choice but to really sleep in the guest room. But I unlocked the door and hoping for him to go in, but he didn’t. Seems like he really let me do whatever I want.

I woke up the next morning because I felt like someone is kissing my head. When I finally opened both of my eyes, I saw Sky. He is already wearing a gray shirt and faded dark jeans. I smell his natural manly scent and the perfume and shower gel that he used.

"Good morning, princess" even when I feel sleepy. I slowly sat in front of him.

“Good morning, are you going already?” I asked followed by a yawn. He smiled before nodding his head, he helped me sit down. "It’s still too early, did you eat breakfast already?" I looked at the wall clock in my room, it’s still five in the morning.

"I'm not hungry," his eyes went down to his wristwatch before looking back at me. "I have to be there early. Eat your breakfast and don't forget to bring hanky," I felt touched and sad to what he said. But still, I tried to smile. I know that I will still see him tomorrow, so a day without him wouldn’t hurt.

He sighed before leaning forward to give my lips a kiss. “You’ll be home tomorrow?” I asked before asking for another kiss. He chuckled first before giving me another one.

He removed my hands on his cheeks as he gave me a peck of a kiss on the tip of my nose, I felt his hot breath on my face. "I promised to be back tomorrow morning," his voice was cold but it made me feel secure that he will do what he promised.

"Promise? I will prepare something tomorrow for you then."

"Yes baby," I hugged him tightly until he bid his goodbye because he really needs to leave already.

He promised to be back tomorrow that’s why after class, I decided to do something for him. I even ask Zabrina and Jane’s suggestion.

Everything was ready, the food, the balloons, the CDs for our movie marathon. He said tomorrow morning.

I promised to be back tomorrow morning.

But 3 years had passed.

And he never came back.
