Him

Despite the loud music, I can still distinguish her voice. How can I forget her voice?

I shifted on my sit. Not all people know about our break up.

I can say several people are now looking at me.

Pity? Yeah, I think.

“It’s been a while Vera, how is it? You still look stunning. And who is the guy?”

I can hear them going on her. I just choose to stay calm and be cool.

When in truth, I want to ask her who that guy is? Why is she with him? Is he the reason why she didn’t accept my proposal? So many things on my mind right now.

Be calm, William. She doesn’t have to see how miserable you are.

“-llliam. William, can you hear me? Hey!” Peter is now shouting on my ear, and I choose not to acknowledge, for I know what will be his next question.

“Did the two of you broke up?” I can hear the distress from his tone.

“Yeah. Few months ago.” I blankly answered him.

I started to question my judgment, why did I leave home?

“WHAT, YOU TWO ARE ABOUT TO GET MARRIED?!” a girl shouted.

My head automatically looks back to where she is and the other girls are.

Married? Who? Vera?

I didn’t know what my mind is thinking.

But I’m now standing in front of her. Standing in pieces.
