STILL BOOK 1

Chapter 22

Tzuyu's POV

I put some powder on my face because of how swollen my eyes is

I did saw her with another woman, they're kissing passionately like what we're doing

But still, I won't give up easily

I didn't stay with her for almost 3 years just to give up

Even though it hurts inside, I'll do this. She's my dream girl. She's the one I want to marry

I sighed then put the blue box on my pocket while waiting for her patiently

Around 6pm, a knocked was heard on the door. Sign that she's already home

She walked inside confusedly

"Tzuyu-ah" She called but I ignored it. I want this to be successful

"I won't give up until I heard those 'yes' and 'I do' from you, Sana" I whispered while holding the bouquet on the edge of our bed

"Tzuyu, you're not pranking me right ? C'mon its dark here-"

I smiled as she stop talking and open our bedroom

"T-tzu, what's this?" she asked while roaming her eyes inside the bedroom "W-what are you doing ?"

I felt an ache on my heart, she said those words instead of a sweet smiles and tears of joy

"Baby.." I mumbled then gave to her the flower. I slowly caressed her face as our eyes met and gets watery

"I may not be a perfect person for you but I will surely do my best to make you happy" I smiled while holding her hand "I promised that I will marry you right?"

Sana nodded, just looking on our intertwined fingers together

"Baby, I know that you love me. You know that I'm all yours. You are my happiness" she closed her eyes as tears fell down on her cheeks "You changed me Sana. I love you and I won't stop loving you"

"T-tzuyu-" she mumbled while crying silently

I put my thumb on her lips and hushed her "I love you so much"

I kissed her forehead and kneel down in front of her. She's wiping her tears that can't stop flowing

Maybe, its happiness right ?

"I can't express how much I love you" Another tears fell down on my cheeks and I get the box from my pocket. I don't know if there's something wrong

I love her and I'm willing to take all the risk for her and for our relationship. Even though it really hurts, the way that I pressed my thumb on her lips and saw a visible hickey on her neck

My tears flow again and I just smiled. I opened the velvet box and look at her, praying that she'll say yes

"Minatozaki Sana, will you marry me ?" I asked and can't stop smiling from ear to ear

She knelt down and hug me tightly like it is the end of us.

No, I should stay positive

"Tzuyu" she said between her deep breath

"I can't marry you" she added

I was stun when she pulled away and stood up. Feels like my world stopped. Is this really happening ?

She hold the door knob but I throw the ring and hold her arms tightly

"Sana, why?" I asked weakly

Sana turned around and we look at each other "I just can't do it Tzuyu-"

"Because of that woman?" I want to forget what happened earlier but it slipped on my tongue already

Sana look at me like she's sorry "Tzuyu, I'm sorry" she hold my hand while crying

"Sana, I was like this before. I met a lot of girls but I'm feeling guilty" I looked up, preventing my tears to fall but I failed "I keep on thinking about you 'cause I don't want to lose you!

Because I love you so much! And I realize that you were the only person who can make me happy. Sana, I want to be with you" my lips keep on trembling as my knees as well "Please. I did those things too but I changed for you. I-I don't want to lose you"

"Tzuyu, l-let's break up"

"I promise that I won't give up" I said then hug her from behind "Let's fix this"

"Stop Tzuyu-"

"No I won't!"

"I'm getting married to someone else!" she shouted back that made me stopped from crying.

I can't feel anything right now, I feel numb as I fell on my knees.

The way she let go of my arms and left me stunned

The way we let go of each other.

'She's getting married but not with me.'
