The RuiVin Tale

Heartaches Heartbreaks

CHAPTER 12 EDITED*

Rui En's POV

I was struggling internally. The searing pain that I felt in my heart was undescribable. It felt as though you were ripping your own heart apart. I didn't know I fell so hard in those 3 months. I thought we were meant to be. But I guess not now? My heart didn't have an answer for him. I needed to think and sort out my thoughts. I needed to get away from him. I need to rethink about my thoughts about him. Fear. I can feel the jealousy and fear for losing him creeping up on me. I also think he needs time to consider who he loved more as well. I could not wait for him to come. I had to make a getaway.

I hailed a cab, leaving his condo keys inside the car cos I know he'll have a spare car key so I took those he passed me with me. I hopped on the cab and headed back home, my head still spinning slightly.

Elvin's POV

I arrived at Newton Road to see my car parked in the carpark nearby but no sign of my girl. I dialled her number umpteen times but got no answer. Then a whatsapp message came through:

Don't worry. I am fine resting at home now. Give ourselves all a break and don't come looking for me till everything gets sorted out.

My heart went cold. As if I lost it there. A thousand rocks weighing me down.

I drove my car and sped to her house without second thoughts.

"She doesn't want to see you." Her grandma answered the door and said. “奶奶，求你了，我真的有很重要的话要跟她说.” She shook her head and explained that Rui En was as stubborn and would have to wait till she calmed down before talking to her.

I left, my heart weighing a million times heavier than it originally was.

I didn't sleep a wink that night and I was back the first morning to catch my angel before she left for work. I waited by her car with Lao Ban in hand. I had to win her back. Fast.

Her figure slowly approached the car. Dressed in a simple denim jeans and white T-Shirt, she looked fabulous especially with those shades on her. My guess: She did not wear makeup today.

She saw me from a distance and I saw her stiffened before approaching with caution. "Can we talk?" I asked. "I am rushing to mediacorp. There is a imaging for me today." She replied coldly. "5 minutes? Please?" I tried again. "Okay. You have 5 minutes. Speak."

"Last night was... A mistake. I met an old friend. She... Was my ex. But I already made it clear I was attached. I love you Rui En, I am sorry for ruining our third month." I closed in the distance only to make her take a step back. "Elvin! Look at yourself, have you really left her behind? Because from what I can see, you haven't gotten over it! Now move aside so I can move along." She scoffed, getting into the car and sped away. I stood dumbfounded, unable to find words to my mouth. The Lao Ban falling from my hands and spilling...

Rui En's POV

I could not let him see my vulnerable side. My eyes were turning red beneath those shades. Tears were forming. But he could not see me cry. My knuckles were turning white from gripping the steering wheel too hard. I stopped by the roadside and I was hyperventilating. Tears were streaming uncontrollably. I was literally shaking. I WANT HIM. I NEED HIM AND I LOVE HIM. WHY IS IT SO HARD?

Every cell of me was aching for his presence, his warm arms to hold and comfort me. I hate to admit but I fell for him alot harder than I think I did. My life cannot do without him.  Tears caked my cheeks and I looked horrible. Whipping out my phone, I dialled Min and called in sick. Next I whatsapped Li Ping, the other shoulder that I had left, needing something to comfort my soul. Turning my car back onto the road, heading for starbucks...
