Chapter 101

Miguel's pov

I ran out of there.

His words made me feel more down than I was before. 

"Miguel what's wrong?" Bianca asked, but I ignored her.

I ran till I became tired of running, my breathe now coming out in shallow gulps.

It's over.

I've lost my loves just because of a little misunderstanding.

"Miguel why are you crying?" Manuel asked as he say near me on the floor.

"Go away from me!"  I try standing up, but the fatigue was much; I couldn't even stand.

"Am sorry Miguel, I didn't mean to cause any misunderstanding between you four, am sorry,"  he looks down in shame. " I shouldn't have pushed my luck with you."

" If you're sorry, you ought to leave me alone to my misery," I look back at the school " if you're really sorry , you will go back there and tell the Triplets it's all a misunderstanding."

He looks down at his hands before looking up at me " I will be sure to do that later, but for now I need to take care of you, you look to be in need of a shoulder to lean on."

 I might be in need of a shoulder you lean on, but I want no other shoulder that's not that of my mates.

"I will appreciate if you leave me alone please. Spending time with you will make the problem more if my mates are to see me with you," I voiced my concern on being seen with him.

"You don't have to be afraid, they're back in school. No one will see us here," he stands "come, I know of a place to help you relax and momentarily forget all your worries," he lends a hand.

" I want to go, please leave." My  problem started the day I followed him somewhere he claimed will take my mind away from thoughts of this world.

"i can't just leave you here Miguel, it's against all I've been told."

He smiles "  I tell you what, I will keep my distance from you if you will just follow me there. I promise I won't disturb you till I leave for the city again."

I look at him in suspicion " why do you want me to follow you there? why are you insistent about it?"

He runs a hand through his head "I  promise not to disturb you, but that didn't mean I don't still love you. I love you, and that's why I want to cheer you up before leaving for the city."

"What of Favour? didn't you love her?" I  asked when I recalled the story Bianca told me.

He closed his eyes for a moment , his countenance pained.

"She was a lovely girl, my first love, but unfortunately she died on the day I left for the city. 

I was too heartbroken when I heard of her unfortunate death," a tear slipped from his eyes.

" I left here when I found out she was in love with the triplets. I left here so they can have a chance of love, but guess my heartbreak when I learnt of her death,"  he BOWED his head "  may her gentle perfect soul rest in the Bossom of the goddess."

I took his crying self into my arms

" it's okay," I consoled  him.

"She died without knowing how much I loved her, she died without having a good time with the loves of hee life. She died without feeling what it means to be infinitely loved." 

" It's okay," I  felt my heart breaking as he continues sobbing for someone he must have loved before her untimely death.

"That's why I don't want to leave without telling you how much I love you. You night not reciprocating my feelings, but I want you to know how much I love you, and how it pains me to see you on tears.

You might not reciprocate my feelings, but I won't want you to live without knowing you were loved. Please give me the chance to have a closure with you, allow me to have something I didn't have with favour with you."

The more he cried, the more I feel my heart breaking for a misunderstood male. All his life, he've been misunderstood.

People have blamed him for things he didn't have a hand in. It wasn't his fault that he fell for someone already taken..

After all, the heart wants who it wants.

You can't tell your heart whom to love and who not to. Your heart decides on who it wants.

"Every night when I close my eyes to sleep, her smiles hunts me. My regret on not telling her, on not showing her how much I really love her too much for me to bear," more tears freely falls from his eyes " you were the one whose presence chased out all my doubts. Your presence alone makes all things please perfect. It makes my dead heart beat again."

I felt myself crying with him, the racking sound from him making me shed tears with him.

"It's alright. Am here you don't have to feel lonely again."

"I feel like am the cause of her death Miguel. I feel like she wouldn't have died if I didn't come into her life. She would have been alive, and healthy."

" You did nothing, you wouldn't have known she will die" I consoled the weeping male in my arms " don't beat yourself too much about it. She will want you to be happy wherever she may be now."

" Thank you Miguel," he sniffs " you're the only one in the entire world who isn't saying bad about me. You're the only one that seems to understand a lost and broken soul like I."

He looks ow broken and lost, his eyes red from the tears he shed for a female he once loved.

"Let's go," I  smile at him.

"Go where?" He looks at me in confusion.

"To the place you want you want to take me to."

"Are you sure? the triplets might see you with me."

I nod "am  just spending time with a friend. Am not cheating on them."
