Chapter 14: Ex-girlfriend

" She's my ex-girlfriend". We were left speechless by what he said. My mind went blank, I can't process what word came in my head. All you can hear for now is the sound of the band playing on the bar. Sound of people shouting as they dance. Later on, one of us starts a conversation to break the silence.

" Why are you guys shocked?". Max asks us and we all look at each other. " Well, we don't know Kiel has an ex-girlfriend, and in high school?". Jean replies to max question. " Kiel, you didn't tell them about her?". Max proceed to ask Kiel. " Uh well, I know that they will react like that". Kiel has a point, we all didn't know the full of personality of Kiel.

" Well now we all know, tell us about her and how you guys dated and break up". I stop the conversation and ask Kiel, so basically the topic went to Kiel. Kiel feels the memories coming back to him. He stops for a minute before talking and suddenly smile and proceed to talk.

" First don't interrupt me while I'm talking. Don't ask just listen". " Yeah sure, go ahead".

" It all started our fresh year of high school. Well, we all know that if you're a freshman you need to go to the gym and sang a hymn. I saw her crying just because her mother didn't make it to her first day at school. I went and ask her what was wrong and comforted her. After that day we became close and talked to each other. Talk about what happened in our day, our friends or family. She also knows you guys. Maybe after four or three months of talking to each other. We confess to each other, and not too long we dated until the third year. So kinda two years about three years. Suddenly all the surroundings changed, and she became cold and doesn't want me to walk her to her house. She changes when we enter the third year. When I got the power to ask her she suddenly broke up with me and tell me she uh, she's seeing her friend, and uh they ended up".

" Wait, Kiel, don't you have a girlfriend from our class when the second year?". I went to ask Kiel because he mentioned that she and him our dating till the third year. " Yes, I remember, she was my friend back then". Jean replied. After that question, we all look at each other and then look at Kiel. And said a word at the same.

" You're a cheater?". We all shouted the same expression. " No of course not, that's a play. She's friends with my ex, and my ex considers it, I don't like it but she got a point". Kiel responds before we even ask more questions.

I laugh and realized how we really don't know Kiel. " Thank you for telling bro, now you said it let's get drunk". We shouted cheers and three of them stood up and walk out and start to dance. They left us, and Kei suddenly lean on my shoulder.

" You didn't pay attention to me, I'm jealous". Kei said while pouting and her cheek are like a hamster. " Oh sorry my love, do you want more drink?". I ask her while patting her head and on the other hand, I'm holding her hand. " Yeah, sure, thank you".

I went to buy more drinks and went back to my girl's side. I sit down and proceed to drink alcohol. While they danced we left with a peaceful sound, when I'm with her all I can hear is the sound of a breathing person and the sound of music playing. All I want is to start with her and enjoy the moment.
