Our Fate's Color [(MewGulf)]

➽ Chapter Nine

Mew's POV

---------------------------------------

When Gulf's family suddenly came I felt nervous and wanted to quickly leave but when told me to stay, I was both surprised and a bit happy yet I never thought he would start discussing that sensitive subject, well, I finally know everything about him, he looked sad to his real mother's photos, she was indeed beautiful and Gulf inherited that, too bad she passed away at a young age.

I was also stunned when his father shared his story, it's really a bit similar to mine, he looked like he really loved her, she must have been the most precious and the love of his life, aside for all that, what really made my day was seeing Gulf smile, to me, I felt like flying with happiness, he looked so pure with his small smile, I'm going to make him laugh too

I noticed one thing from his father's story, it seem he felt the same way I did when I first saw Gulf with his shiny scarlet eyes, I almost immediately resolved on sticking to him and protecting him, I want to make him happy and enjoy his life more, now that I remember, all those feelings came as a wave at once just the moment I saw him... will I also end up falling in love with him? It can't be, I just want us to be close friends

Somehow, Gulf's father's story was stuck in my mind, I didn't even notice that I was thinking about it all day long, even Zee noticed that I kept spacing out while we were having fun by night, I slowly became aware of what I've been doing for almost half a year now, since the first time I saw Gulf, I immediately got interested in him and really wanted him to join the exploration club and then after seeing his red eyes I became completely focused on him and only kept thinking about him day and night

Gulf didn't come the next day too, I'm sure, he was busy reading his mother's diaries and meeting up with his supposed to be real mother, he is really strong, he was calm during the conversation as if he saw it coming, even though I know he is focused on finding the truth about himself, I can't help but feeling restless and wanting to see him, the urge was killing me that I almost drove to his place

The next day, I came earlier than usual and kept waiting as usual for his arrival, I was weirdly impatient unlike before, the only thought that kept echoing inside my head 'I want to see Gulf' I was surprised at my own behavior yet the urge to see Gulf, to talk to him and be with him is controlling both my mind and my body that's why as soon as he came, I almost jumped hugging him, he was taken aback when I rushed next to him

"good morning" I said feeling relaxed when I saw that he was fine

"'morning, you should stop waiting for me like this, I'm not going to ran away, we can meeting by lunch or after classes"

"I can't help it, it became a habit to see you in the morning"

"it's a bad habit, you must change it, btw, here, my father asked me to pass this letter to you"

"what is about?" I asked taking it

"no idea, he told me not to read it, just in case he asked you to contact him or write him back, here is his number" he gave me another small paper with the number on it

"alright, thanks, did you finish reading your mother's diaries?"

"no, I only read one of them, I spend all day yesterday with my other mother and when I got back I helped Ray with his homework"

"she must have been shocked when you told her that you know the truth" we talked as I walked him to his faculty

"yes, a little, she didn't expect me to find out now since she and my father decided to tell me after graduation but she was happy that I was understanding and told me all kind of things about my real mother, like how they became friends and how she found out about her eyes which led them to be close friends and how she promised her to take care of me before she died" he told about everything as I listened to him feeling happy that nothing went wrong with his family since it is a sensitive matter
