I was at one of the café in the airport since my flight got delayed because it was snowy heavily outside. I was all alone here while Grayson said he want to go to somewhere to buy something.
"Here's your coffee, sir." The bartender gave me a cup of hot Americano to me with a smile curving on her face.
"Thanks." I smiled back to her then walked towards an unoccupied round table at the corner of the cafe.
The boarding board showed that my flight will be delayed for an hour so I think I’ll wait here.
is this the right decision for me?
I didn't do something stupid again, right?
Or...
I sighed. "Should I just cancel my plan to leave LA?" I murmured to myself. “While looking at the glass of hot Americano in front of me.”
Oh god, I miss her so much.....
But Dylan....I...I was the caused of his death....so I deserved this kind of punishment. I have to accept that Bella and I would not be together again.
My phone buzzed in my pocket and it was from my best friend, Grayson as his caller id appeared on my phone screen.
Me: 'sup?
Grayson: Where are you, dude?
Me: Umm....*takes a look at the coffee cup* I'm at the Starbucks.
Grayson: Alright then....I just want you to know that I'm at the gate now.
Me: Already??
Grayson: Yup, but don't worry, we still have time though. So, just finish your coffee or whatsoever, I'll wait for you here.
Me: *grins* Oh okay, thanks dude.
I hung up the call with my tears began to fill both of my eyes as I saw my phone background wallpaper. It was my wife picture and my son, smiling happily as if they were looking at me right now.
Bella.....
I arrived at the LAX at noon and was running to look for the boarding board to take a look for Nathan’s flight which been delayed until 12.30 according to Grayson’s text. The people around the airport seemed to watch me as I was running around the airport like a crazy person. But I don’t care though, as long as that silly guy wouldn’t depart yet.
I was searching for the gate which Nathan should take it after read the boarding board a couple of minutes ago.
Oh god, it's almost the departure time...I hope I could make it.
Another 10 minutes...
The Gate 7, LAX Airport - Venezuela (La Chinita International Airport) is now in front of me...but it's already closed.
I was gasping for the air when I approached the guard of the gate. "E-excuse me sir, please open the gate, I...I need to see somebody?"
"I'm sorry miss, I can't do that for you. The plane already took off a few minutes ago."
"No.....no....I have to stop him." I insisted.
"I'm sorry, miss."
I was on my knees now, begging the guard to open the gate for me. The tears keep pouring on my cheeks and Nathan's face keeps flashing on my mind.
How could he leaves me....
"Please....I need to stop my husband...."
"I'm so sorry, miss." The guard replied. "It's already too late and it also against our airport laws."
Nathan....
I'm still kneeling on my knees while sobbing really hard in front of the gate.
Why did you leave me?
I heard the footsteps coming closer to me along with the suitcase being pulled. My heart was racing when saw a tall guy figure wearing a black trench coat walking straight towards me. I quickly wiped my eyes as I saw the guy's familiar face. He has blond hair styled with short side with long top hairstyle.
He was holding the red scarf the one that I kept it for his birthday 4 years ago. But I could not give it to him since he was missing after the plane crash.
He's just a metre away from me and my heart is now pounds so hard.
N-Nathan.....
I slowly stand again on my feet then took big paces towards him.
"Why did you this to me???" I was now in his hug, crying once again.
