…”I can talk to hundreds of people in one day but none of them compare to the smile you can give me in a minute” …

…Khaelus Cross …
I don’t know what time it was when Nickolai called to inform me that his boyfriend proposed to him. He was so excited that even though we’re literally on the different side of the planet, I could feel him floating on cloud 9.
He said it was already a month when his boyfriend proposed but he’s still like this.
I sighed. Love. When will I even find another one?
I was going to go back on playing when Nickolai messaged me again. He just won’t stop making me feel miserable than I already am!
…”It’s really sad that you can’t attend my wedding especially when I’m your best friend 🙁 Anyways! I’m still going to drop the venue in case you change your mind!”…
That’s what the message said. I didn’t think much and replied.
“I told you, I’m not going. You probably already invited mom and I’m sure she will drag Khaelles there. Plus, I’m in America! How do you expect me to appear in a blink of an eye at your f*cking wedding?”
…”Don’t call my wedding a “fucking”, ok? I spent 4 years avoiding him and another 4 months chasing him back. It’s not easy!”…
“I didn’t tell you to chase him! Don’t blame me!”
…”You’re the one who suggested it! B*stard!” …
“Oh, was I?”
I don’t know what happened to Nick after that because he stopped reading my messages. There’s no way he was hurt by those though, his boyfrie— fiancé is with him.
Maybe he was summoned, lol.
When I was ready to play my game again, my phone rang and I slammed the table and answered the call.
Second time, another failed attempt.
“What is it now?” I said, unmotivated
It was Nick again.
“I’ll hold a bachelor’s party bro!” he annoyingly stated and I groaned
“Man, that’s useless! You’re both guys, how are you supposed to have a bridal party then?” I pointed out and I heard him giggle
“Girls aren’t allowed, it’s just us, guys!” he said
“I won’t be there.. I told you, it’s too much trouble to fly in and out of the country. I doubt I’ll have time too, all those business and stuffs” I reminded him but he didn’t listen
“Come on man, I know you’re not that busy there! You’re father even congratulated me earlier” he said
So that’s why he’s being so fuzzy.
“Just call me when your bachelor’s party is starting. I won’t be there in person but I’ll try to enjoy it from a distance” I suggested and he let out a small squeak
“Thank you man! You’re the best!” he beamed
“I’m surprised that your father accepted you” I blurted out and an awkward silence filled the air
“Uhmm… he didn’t accept us, well… sort of. I don’t really get him” he stated and let out a heave of disappointment
“Huh? Why are you getting married then— I mean how” I asked
“Ali proposed! Am I supposed to reject that? I won’t ever get a chance like this if I didn’t accept him that time” he answered
“So, did you organise all this? I don’t think you have a lot of money in your pocket. You didn’t even opened a bank account because you said that it wasn’t needed”
“It was Ali’s money, not mine. Though, he kind of used all his savings for this. Don’t get me wrong, I also helped for the catering and of course the honeymoon” he said
“You could’ve called me ya’know. I’m always happy to be of help to you. You’re my best friend after all” I enquired which he laughed off
“Sorry man, I forgot that I still have you but don’t worry, I’ll let you take care of some stuff too lol. Ali said that it should be our effort, without any help so yeah… I didn’t argue with him” he laughed that made me sigh
This guy might seem a happy-go-lucky person but I know that he’s struggling deep inside. He always puts on a strong act when it comes to the person he cherishes.
“Just call me when you need help” I said and he answered with a “yes sir!” jokingly
We talked for about 10 minutes until I heard his boyfriend’s voice on the phone.
“Anything you want to eat baby? —You can decide on that, I’m still full though— I’m not going to cook a lot, just enough for two people or would you rather order some food? —No! I want to eat what you cook —haha, ok, ok. I’ll cook now, come, accompany me in the kitchen— ok!”
A small smile stretched on my face when I heard their conversation. They’re really happy. If it weren’t him being my brother, we could have been like them too.
“I’m hanging up man! My baby’s calling me!” he beamed and ended the call
“F*ck! I’m jealous… I wanna be like that with you too” I muttered while staring at the photo on my homescreen
Almost 1 year and I still haven’t moved on. What am I even doing to myself? I can’t meet someone else because I keep thinking of him. Maybe he’ll be hurt by the fact that I’m flirting with someone else. If he was here, would he pull me away? Will he kiss me and tell me that he’s jealous? I seriously can’t do this anymore.
I thought avoiding him was the best option but I think it just got worse. The more I can’t see or touch him, the more I’m falling into this abyss.
