"Goodbye, I'll pick you up tonight." He waved to me and smiled and I nodded.

I walked to class but everyone is starring at me. I'm confuse when suddenly Jennifer appeared. She was widely and winked at me. I looked at her so confused right now.

"Why is everyone looking at me like that?"

"Because you're with Jayson Moretti."

"What's up with me and him?"

"You my friend are so clueless, yesterday you and Baekhyun went a restaurant and you're all over the . Everyone know you're his girlfriend or fiancee." She put her arms around me.

"Oh gosh.."

“Jen, I think we have to move the girl's night to next Friday." I said.

"It's okay, I understand." She answered lightly.

"Really?”

"Yeah, I saw the look on your face, Elsa. Do you like him?" Suddenly she asked and I raised my .

"What?"

"Yes, you do." She smiled and we walked to class together.

"I-I don-"

"Bye, El!" She waved and pushed me to my class.

When I entered my class everyone was looking at me. I walked to my seat and girls started to walked to .

"Elsa, you're such a lucky girl, do you know that?"

"How did you two meet?"

"Jayson is hot, like super hot."

"So you're getting married?"

"We saw you get out from his car earlier.."

"You guys are so cute.."

I only smiled to them because I don’t even know how to react. The rest of my class were the same, they me about my relationship. I sighed knowing that this fake engagement is getting big. After class I back home, there’s a box waiting for me.

I didn't order anything, I looked at the card.

Jayson: Wear this.

I smiled and brought the box inside. I have to go to work in 1 hour. I walked to my sink and have to wash . I started to put the soap on and wash the plate and pan. Suddenly I heard something falling to the .

Oh my! The ring got out by itself. I quickly put the ring on the safe place. I quickly washed my dishes and the ring into a small plastic and put it on my bag.

I went to work and 3 hours of work went by pretty fast. I came back to take a shower. I thought about

Jennifer’s statement, about me liking him. Is it possible? To like someone just in a blink of an eye.

I'm not sure.

"Elsa.. earth to Elsa." Kevin poked my shoulder.

"Ohh."

"You're spacing out, your shift already end 15 minutes ago." He said pointed at the clock.

"Oh really? I have to go Kev.."

"Okay, be careful." I ran out from the shop and got back to my apartment. I quickly took a shower and the box.

It's a dark violet dress, I swear it's so beautiful. I put them on and it fitted perfectly. I put some make up on curled my hair. I wore my nude high heels, took my small clutch and putting in my phone, cash and . I didn’t forget about the ring. I heard a knock on my door. I walked to the door and opened it. It Jayson in a black suit.

"You look stunning." He said looking at me from head to toe.

"Thanks."

"Ready to go?"

"Yeah."

He took my hand and we walked down to his car. We talked about a lot of thing on the way to the ball. We about a couple of things.

"Come on." He opened my door and took my hand.

"It's beautiful." I looked around the venue and he nodded. He looked at me and tucked my hair back, he and pulled me inside. We greeted a couple of people and went inside. I saw his parents, I pulled

Jayson to them.

"Hi." I greeted his parents.

"You look beautiful, El." Sarah said as she gave me a hug.

"Thankyou. You look amazing too."

"Hi El." Martin greeted me.

"Hi, Martin."

"You enjoy the show, El. Jayson ask her to dance." Sarah said to Jayson and he nodded. He grabbed my and led me to the dance floor. He turned to me and put his right hand on my waist and interwined left hand with my right hand. I put my left hand on his shoulder.

"You look beautiful..”

"Thankyou." I blushed and he chuckled.

"Can I talk to you after this ball end?" I asked and he nodded.

We danced a couple of songs and there's a performance and some talk about the ball. I met a couple of

Jayson’s family.

"Hello, Jayson." Suddenly a beautiful woman appeared in front of us. He froze and he tightened his grip my wrist.

"Patricia.."

"Hello." She greeted me and I smiled.

"So how's life?" She asked.

I released our hand and said "I will give you two sometime." with that I left them and take my clutch from table earlier. I walked out to breath some air.

"Patricia is back, so is Jayson going to go back to her? They broke up because she left him to go to

Japan."

"But Jayson already have someone else now.."

"Hyerin is his first love, people believe that they’re meant to be together." I smiled fakely to myself. I out to the garden behind the hotel. I looked at the pretty lights and a little fountain. I sat on the looking at the sky.

I think he will get back to her, who wouldn't want her. She's beautiful, sexy, tall and she was Jayson’s . I guess tonight is the last time I saw him, it’s okay Elsa.. this is what you wanted right?

"It's cold here.." Suddenly Jayson appeared behind me.

"Can I talk to you?" I stood up and he walked to me. I took the ring out from my clutch. I took his hand and the ring on it. He looked at it disbelief.

"How-"

"You said today you'll let me go right? I already took out the ring and I think it’s time that everything falls into their place." I smiled and he looked at me speechless.

"Elsa.."

"So this is a goodbye?" I asked.

"Elsa, listen-"

"Goodbye, Jayson." I walked backwards and he stayed on his spot. I walked out from the venue and taxi. I thought that I would not cry but.. I cried.
