"Tzu, have you ever been in love?" Sana asks while looking at the sea in front of us.

"What kind of question is that?" I asked her back; wanting to make her question clearer. I picked a pebble then threw it on the sea.

"I mean, ever felt butterflies in your tummy? Or wanting to always be with that person? Or like, wanting to offer them your life?" She cleared my confusion as she laid put her head on my shoulder.

"Hmm... I think no." I stated. Lie, of course. I do. I'm in love with you.

She removed her head on my shoulder then looks at me.

"What!? As in never? Even crush?" I removed my gaze on the see then looked at her eyes.

I'm in love, with your eyes. They always make me fall for you deeper. But then I averted it because I cannot lie when I'm looking at them. They always make me say the truth; always. But of course my mouth will say the opposite,

"No, never. And I don't plan to. Love is disastrous." I said as I threw another pebble.

"Oh c'mon! That's awful, Tzu. Don't you want to make a family?" She pushes me with her right hand to the side.

I do. Of course, I do; with you.

"I don't." another lie.

I swear, I'm a great liar.

"Then what do you want to do with your life!?" She said frustratingly with a pout.

I faced her before answering, "Haven't I told you already? I wanted to become rich. Where I can buy anything I want." Well that's actually true.

"But you cannot buy love with money." She reasoned out.

And I cannot buy your love with my love either.

I took a deep breath before answering, "I don't want to be loved, ok? You know it will just--" she cuts my sentence.

"Destroy you, yes. I know. You told me that a thousand times already." She rolled her eyes. I saw her leaning her head back on my shoulder but I immediately stand up.

"Oops. Sorry. It's almost 7 already. I need to get you home before your dad skin me alive." Then I run away, from her. From the person I love. This will be the last time.

"You! Chou Tzuyu! You said you'd spend the entire day with me before you go to Taiwan! Yah!" She then stands up and chase after me.

"Minatozaki, I still want to live, yes? We both know that your dad is pretty scary." I shouted back.

I'm sorry Sana, my love. For this is the only way I can make myself believe that you will chase for me. I'm done chasing you. I'm tired. I'm sorry if I'm going to break my promise about going back.

"I hate you! So damn much! Wait for me, you freak!" I can hear the exhaustion in the way she shout those words.

I love you; so freaking much. And I have been waiting for you for so long, my love.

As much as I want to shout that back to her; I don't think I can; for she does not feel the same.

"Please... Hah... Wait..." Ok, fine. What can I do? I'm ing whipped for you, Minatozaki.

I immediately run back to her. This will be the last time, Chou. Last.

As I reached her place, she punched my shoulder. But she's not that strong so it does not hurt at all. Except, the feeling I'm feeling in my chest. It hurts as . This is the last time I'm going to see the love of my l
