…”It is strange that the years teach us patience; that the shorter our time, the greater our capacity for waiting.” …
…—Elizabeth Taylor…
…ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ…
…Khaelles Kruss …
Psychology said that waiting was the hardest part in the world and for me, it was true. I finally proved that uncertain waits feel longer than finite waits.
How many months has it been when I last saw that guy who made me feel like I needed protection? A month? Or maybe two. I’ve made myself busy these past few days so that he won’t cross my mind and make me change my decision to wait. It was a stupid idea, I know.
If I wanted to, I could always fly to where he is right now and jump him but I didn’t. I want him to realise that he can’t get rid of me by going somewhere.
I made up my mind at the airport so why am I like this now?
“F*ck… I really thought it would be easy. I can’t even find any motivation to do anything anymore” I sighed and sit up
“Khaelles~~~~” I heard mamá call while singing like she’s in some kind of opera
“Yes mamá?” I answered and I saw her peek at my door and raised her eyebrow
“Don’t you have work?” she asked and I shook my head
“I resigned” I said and she gasped
“Oh my, oh my~ Is there something wrong? To think that you resigned without even caring is so shocking~ Are you alright? Should I call a psychiatrist?” she said
“You’re being dramatic mamá, I just resigned because I’m tired. I don’t think my body can take it” I opened up and she replied with an “Oh”
“Still, are you ok?” she then asked
“Yes mamá, I’m ok—” except that I’m going insane because of Khaelus, I can’t even m*sturbate properly bacause my hand isn’t enough.
I stilled at that thought. F*ck! I’m really insane, thinking of that in front of the person who’s like my second mother.
“Ok~” she chirped. “Anyway, go out and buy some groceries for me. We’re almost short of food honey. Here, I made a list of the things you need to buy” she added and handed me a rolled paper tied with a red ribbon. Just from the looks and I can already guess that it’s a lot.
“Sure mamá” I said and took the `listʼ from her. Might as well do this before I snap “All the things we need are written here? I’m going now, just message me if you need something else”
“Thank you mi hijo!” she beamed and I nodded before taking my leave
What a thick piece of paper. Will I even get this done?
I hopped in my car and started driving towards the nearest market which I immediately regretted. Not only because it was packed with people but because everyone, EVERYONE! is being so lovey-dovey with their partners. I seriously thought that this wasn’t a public market but a dating spot.
“Ugh” I grunted and walked towards the canned foods which is on the very top of the list
I thought one cart was enough… well, I thought. I had to pay for the first cart before even trying to shop some more because two hands won’t be enough for this kind of job.
It was tiring.
I went to the spot where they sell fruits and vegetables and began picking some of them to complete the list.
“Look Ashley, that guy is so handsome. You should go and talk to him if you can score some points. He looks rich too” someone said from behind but I didn’t put much thought into them and continued shopping
Of course, I need to eavesdrop. I can’t avoid that anyway, they’re so f*cking close.
“But I don’t think he’ll be interested. He seems so down to earth” the girl named Ashley replied. I don’t think it was called a whisper since they’re being so loud or maybe they’re doing that on purpose.
“Just try! Maybe he’s not that bad” the other girl said
Just when I finished choosing the best quality vegetables, I turned around and was about to leave but some random girl clung on to my arms and started nuzzling his head on it.
I looked at her with disgust on my face and pushed her away, not aggressively, she’s still a girl to begin with.
“Baby? Are you mad at me?” she flirted and bowed a little, making her chest pop out even more
F*ck, that’s embarrassing.
“I’m sorry miss but I think you got the wrong person” I said and walked away but she pulled me again and this time, she rubbed her br*ast on my uncovered arm
I’m regretting not wearing long sleeves.
I pulled my arm and frowned at her.
“Look, I was talking to you nicely but you won’t seem to stop so I can only do this” I said and showed my the number on my phone “I’ll dial this if you don’t stop. You’re just embarrassing yourself” I said and she rolled her eyes at me
Some guts you have to do that.
I walked away and went to the counter to pay for the fifth shopping cart.
“Uhmm… excuse me?” someone said
Again? I thought and faced the person. It was that Ashley from earlier.
“Uhmm… are you maybe single? I was hoping to get your number” she muttered and I sighed
“I’m sorry miss but I’m not interested in girls and I’m waiting for someone” I smiled and nodded before paying and taking my leave
Before that, I heard that girl say “Of course he’s gay, I told you!”
I chuckled and stared at the 10 plastic bags in my car.
If Khaelus was here we would have 5 bags each and he would have volunteered to push the cart because he doesn’t want me to get tired.
I sighed again. Ah. I miss him.
