We Broke Up

"Again!" I threw the papers and let it flew on air. The man standing in front of me darkened his face together with his zombie-like face. The dark circles together with his messy hair made him look exactly like a walking dead. He picked up the papers on the floor and walked out weakly.

I faced palm myself as I think of ways on which and what design should I accept in behalf of my employees who keeps designing an old-fashion house. Well, basically, I already told them what our concept will be but no matter how hard they tried, it's just... just doesn't look like what I am expecting to.

"Eh? I'm sure she's happy with her life for now? I don't like her anymore though. I'm sure she's doing well."

"This problem? Yeah, it's indeed hard but as you can see, I managed to send this company as high as I can subordinating the other companies in engineering industry. I can manage this problem without her, that's for sure."

"She said that? Wow! I cared for her but it's just that she didn't noticed it. Look how we ended! We broke up."

"Say, 'ahh'." She opened her mouth while offering me a pork-cut meat and smiled.

"It's okay. You eat it." I replied. She sighed and curved her lips then eat the meat.

The surroundings behind us was as loud as those in Parks but both of us, we are cold as snow. I saw the disappointment on her face but still, I don't bother to say any single word.

"Are you done?" I asked after seeing her stopped eating. She reply with a nod and we started to walk out the restaurant since I am done eating too.

The mall was filled with different people and the crowd was so loud. I saw our favourite theatre so I directly invited her.

While watching a movie, she keeps on staring at me and I asked her if I had any dirt on face but she shokt her head. I know that she keeps on acting weird today but I still don't dare to ask her what was wrong.

After the movie, we both limped weakly out of the theatre and as I walked, I noticed her walking slowly and a large distant was separating us.

I walked near her and grabbed her hand. I dragged her out the mall hurriedly, hoping to ride on the last bus since it's already around 11 in the evening.

As we walked in hurry, she suddenly pulled her hand out of my grasp and I saw her crying. She never say any words while tears keeps on running down her cheeks.

"Are you crying? Why are you crying? What's the problem?" I immediately asked her without hesitation.

"Do I seem weird?"

"Yeah, you are totally weird now." I simply reply.

"No, this past few day, few weeks. Do I look weird to you?" She asked as those tears continue in falling. Her voice was loud enough and I can't tell weather she is shouting or  not.

"What are you talking about?" I slightly let a small laugh.

"Do you even care about me?" She wiped her tears off while still sobbing.

"If I didn't care about you, why would I even be here? You know I'm busy but still, I'm here."

"Let's go, we will miss the last bus." I grabbed her hand but instead of following, she pulled her arm with force so I let her go.

"Let's break up." She said plainly. And those three words seems like a knife directly stabbed to my heart.

"Wh— what are you talking about? Huh? I can't understand it." I walked one step closer to her and she took one step backward.

"Let's break up, I said." She took the ring out of her finger. She grabbed my hand and put the ring on my palm.

She grabbed her bag on my other hand and left with tears falling on her face again. Upon seeing her lonely back going further and further, I can't help but to call her name but she didn't even look at me. Even once.

"Hey, Trisha Medina! Stop right there!"

"Trish!" I throw the bag on my back on the ground as anger rush on my brain.

"Fine! Is this what you want? You know me, if it's over, it's already over. Don't you dare come to me again!" I shouted loudly getting the attention of few people who walked on the street and I kicked my bag hardly.

[Trisha's POV]

A big crowd slapped us as we enter the biggest restaurant in the city. People was talking while eating and some are on dates or families. Emily called the CEO of the company who's going to get  our designs as well as have partnerships and it's really a big help for our small company because since these past few months, there were only few customers who's interested on our designs.

After Emily talking on the phone, she was running her gaze on the big restaurant. The people where happily eating their foods placed on the big round and glassy table.

I, on the other hand, standing tired as my foot started to feel pain since the shoes I am wearing was a bit tight so I just stayed on my place compared to Emily who keep on looking everywhere.

"Let's go there." She pointed the table at the center. I walked confidently as we go nearer and nearer to the person who's face was covered with newspaper.

"Hi, so sorry for being late." Emily stated and we both bowed a little.

"First meeting and you're already late, is this what you supposed to be? I really hate people like that." Said the person who's sitting straight on the table filled with delicious foods and when he put the newspaper down and slowly looked upon us, I was standing shocked to see his face.

Emily and I are both shocked and so was he. I slowly bring my hands up and covered my mouth as they begun to open.

"So we meet again." He smiled.

As a matter of fact, I still can't believe to see him again after our break up. I immediately dragged Emily out of the restaurant and asked her what's going on but even she, didn't knew what was happening.

The appointment was sure appointed by Emily but she didn't knew who she was meeting with, only that... she will do everything to save the company who's about to loss in no time.

"Look... this doesn't matter okay? It's already past. Just bring your head up and talk to him. It's not that you still have feeling for him, do you? Just do it okay? Do it to save our company. He was asking for someone to design a pub from the SK Industry, the biggest company in the field of construction. Look how much money we can earn with this and this project can also bring our fame up high." She started explaining in no time since I didn't know anything about this appointment only that she told me we can save our company yesterday night.

"That's not it... I am ashamed to face him, Emily. You knew how many years we had dated. I still remember those promises and words exchanging I love yous we had and it's embarrassing to face him. Also, upon looking at his face, I started to remember the dark pasts we had together."

"Thicken your face! You don't care about the company? This is a rare opportunity, Trish. Let's grab the iron while it's still hot. Don't be bother with those nonsensical pasts of yours. You had a Boyfriend already, Trisha. Forget about him."
