Y/n's POV:

As I was packing my things, I felt someone's eyes on me.

After the talk we had, I am really mentally exhausted, I have zero energy. But, I decided to go back to my home country tommorow already, I don't want to change my mind anymore, and be manipulated by her sweet words and comforting arms.

"D-do we really have to do this?" I heard her ask softly, but I didn't bother turning around.

"Yes, we do." I ask in a straight voice.

I don't want to be soft on her now, as much as it hurts me, I don't want to give in and run to her arms. I just don't have to do this for us, for myself too.

Lizzie's right, I seriously need a break, we need a break. We have to figure out our shits, and put ourselves back together for each other.

After I finished packing the things I will need for 2 weeks, yes, two weeks, we will have a break for 2 weeks, and I guess that's more than enough. If she really do love me and care for me, then it wouldn't be long for her to figure out herself.

When we talked, I told her about all the things that had happened in the past several months in my perspective. I fully opened up to her, my feelings and the way I see things in our relationship now.

I went to the bathroom to do my night routine, as she went and lay on our bed since she's already done with her things. After that, I went to the side of my bed, not bothering to make a conversation with her, or even say my good night and sweet dreams wishes.

I just look at the other side, my back facing her, I don't really want to look at her face and hear her voice right now, incase it might make me think of stopping this plan.

But, oh well, the universe has other plans. Because all of the sudden, I felt someone poking me lightly on my back, making me turn.

"What is it Scarlett?" I said and i saw her face fell, her aura becoming more sorrowful.

"U-uhmm, can I...can I hold you?...Please?" She ask as if she's scared of what my reaction would be, and the thought of her being afraid of me makes my heart clench.

It's not that bad if will let her hold me, right?

"Fine." I said and face the other side again while moving my body towards her.

I felt her firm but gentle arms snake around my stomach, then her one arm under my neck until it reaches my shoulder. She slightly pressed me more into her, as she hold me like a pillow, as if I would vanish in a second.

I didn't want her comfort and loving arms make me give in, I don't want to be manipulated just by how she holds me, as if im the only thing that mattered. But my hearts says the other words.

I just hope I would get through this tommorow morning without giving in.

I close my eyes and let myself fall into a dreamland, and the last thing I felt is a wet liquid running down on the back of my head.

~~~~~~~~~~

I woke up by the smell of pancakes, I opened my eyes and look at the other side of my bed only to find it empty and cold. But, notice a wet patch on Scarlett's pillow.

Not thinking of anything out of it, I just shrug mentally and get on my feet, then went to the bathroom and showered, then get ready for my flight.

After that, I went downstairs with my bags, but halfway through the steps, Scarlett went over and get the bags out of my hand, helping me out.

"Here, let me help you." She said as we both go down, my bags in her hands.

"I cooked breakfast, you should eat first before you go." She said gently looking me carefully in the eyes.

Should I eat breakfast with her or nah?

Nahh.

"Okay, sure." I simply said passing through her and went to the kitchen.

The foods are already plated and served, just waiting to be eaten. It's an avocado toast, my favorite, and a pancake.

We ate in silence, me looking anywhere but her, and her, looking and just watching me.

"Tell your parents I said hi." She said quietly in a minute of silence, and I just hum.

"And tell them that i'm sorry too." She added, her voice trailing off.

Okay, I don't have time for this.

"I'm full, I should go now, I don't want to be late." I said standing up and putting my empty plate at the sink, I feel her regretful eyes watching every more I made, but I didn't dare sparing her a glance.

Scared to see her breaking face.

After that, I went to get my shoes and put it on, I stand up and get my bag, as I hear a car pulling up in our porch. It must be Lizzie.

I told her if can she bring me to the airport, as I don't want to deal with Scarlett at the moment. Thank god, Lizzie said yes straight away.

"Should I bring you to the airport?" I heard Scarlett ask as I put my bad in my hands. I turned and face her for the first time in this morning, her face full of regret, guilt, and sadness, her eyes looks so sorrowful. The bags under her eyes are big, it's swollen.

It took me everything to run up to her, and bring her in my arms, and just ditch this plan aside.

"No, don't worry, I have Lizzie to take me there already." I said and look away after I saw tears threatening to leave in her eyes.

Just then, I heard a honk that took us out of our trance and making us move already.

"She's already here..." I said looking back at Scarlett, tears threatening to leave my eyes, as hers falling freely down to her cheeks.

"Good bye for now, Scarlett." I said quietly.

"C-can I hug you?...Please?" She said, her voice breaking in every word.

I don't really have the guts to say no to her right now, it's just a hug, it will only be for a second, then I will go.

"Sure." I whispered and she quickly took me in her arms.

She hugged me tightly, not too tight to hurt me, but it's tight enough for me to feel her sadness. I felt my neck and shoulder getting wet, so I just pat her back with my arms that is loosely around her.

"Don't worry, we're not breaking up, it's just for awhile, okay?" I said trying my best to not cry. I felt her nod and pressed me more into her, her lips continuously pressing at the side of my head, leaving a lingering kisses.

"I love you, Y/n." I heard her say.

"I love you too."
