Hi Love Come Back
chapter. 23. Disappeared
Chris was talking to Uncle Geo on the porch, while I was getting ready. Auntie Gina makes drinks in the kitchen.
Today I wore baggy jeans with an oversize brown white box flannel top. Half my hair is tied back. White sneakers complement my look.
"Hi honey, are you ready?" chris asked when I got to the door.
"Yes, I packed everything in here" I replied, pointing at my suitcase.
Aunt Gina has joined forces to sit down with Uncle Geo and Chris. Rick's been going to school for 30 minutes.
Soon Chris and I said goodbye to Uncle Geo and Aunt Gina. Paul put my suitcase in the trunk of the car after he received it from Chris.

Until the airport we entered the line for private planes. After passing through several places and inspections we reached the runway. There was Chris' plane parked.
I sat next to Chris this time. Not long after that he came. Ja.. Andrew was on this plane.
"Hi Om. hi Sally.." then walk towards the seat in the back.
"Hi Drew" I replied
He looks ordinary. It may even be more ordinary than usual.
Along the way Chris held my hand. Sometimes he gently slurped the back of my hand.
***
By the time we reached Agria, Mr. Don was waiting for us at the airport. I walked along with Chris who was embracing my shoulder. Andrew walked behind us.
I sat down next to Chris in the back seat, and Andrew sat down next to Mr. Don. The car goes to Chris' house first. Andrew said he needed to finish his work at home soon. So he asked to be delivered early.
"Thank you Mr. Don and Om Chris, be careful on Sally's road bye." Andrew said as he got out of the car.
"Bye.." I replied to Andrew.
After Andrew came down, Chris started acting spoiled to me again. Chris rested his head on my shoulder and his hand clasped mine. I saw from the rearview Mr. Don holding a smile.
"It's okay, I'm like this. Tomorrow I have to return to the city of Hope, after which I have to go to several other cities. Less than 2 weeks. I will miss you so much" Chris said.
"Yes Chris.. I will miss you too. But finish your job well. I'll wait here for you." I replied.
"If you had graduated college and married me. I don't have to hold back the miss. I'll take you wherever I go" he said.
"Chris.come on 2 weeks isn't long." I replied.
"Yes dear" he said, peeping at my cheek.
***
We got in front of Mess. Chris drove me to the front of the gate. The guard Mess who saw him bowed his head.
"Thank you for driving me. And thank you for everything during our vacation." I told Chris.
"Yes, baby, get some rest.. Tomorrow you are preoccupied with your work and your college schedule" Chris said, shaking my hair.
"Yes, you too" I replied with a sweet smile at him.
"Hmm.. Why is there a cctv here anyway" said Chris annoyed.
Hearing him I just laughed.
"You, his girlfriend was upset and laughed. Do I need to have the cctv turned off every time I drive you here?" chris said still with a look on his face.
"You're funny Chris, so I laughed. Never mind. We still have plenty of time. Poor Mr. Don long awaits. Be careful on the road!" I said.
"Ok, why are you still there? Get inside!" chris's orders
"I'll wait for you Chris!" the answer is not to lose.
"You're getting smarter against ya. If you act like this, don't blame me for not being able to hold back. Fuck there's a cctv or not." I pulled my hand until my body was in his arms. Then he kissed my lips.
Under those circumstances I tried to talk to remind Chris of the cctv. But when I opened my mouth I got a different reaction from Chris. He kissed me deeper.
"Huff.. Chris has a cctv here, I'm out of breath." I pushed his body with all my might so that my lips could get out of him.
He even smiled wickedly.
"Dear baby, I'm home." she whispered in my ear and walked to the car.
I waved my hand as Chris' car passed. Then I got into Mess.
***
Ringg.ring. Chris' name is on the screen.
"Yes Chris" I replied.
"I'm glad I'm on the plane, you don't be naughty as long as I'm gone." she said.
"Yes, you're careful on the road." I said.
"Dear, I love you so much!!" said Chris.
"Thank you, I love you too!" my answer.

I came back with my work. After work I headed to college. Andrew is teaching my class today. Class went well. Andrew also focused on teaching, but not as usual who sometimes stole a look at me.
After college I headed straight to the motor park. While passing through the campus, I saw Andrew still talking to some of the students.
"Excuse me, good night sir!" I said as I asked for a bit of a section of the road as their crowd filled the hallway space.
"Yes" replied Andrew briefly without seeing me and immediately continued his conversation with the students.
I rushed straight to the motor park. Without paying attention to them anymore.
***
11 Days have passed since I returned to Agria. By phone Chris reported that he will soon be heading to the third city on his business trip this time. The calls and text messages from Chris are getting more intense.
Just. There's something different. For 11 days there were no more calls or text messages from Andrew. Usually he was most diligent in sending text messages to me, although the content was sometimes very trivial. Even on campus there was never again such interaction as before. Never again have dinner or go out together on the weekends.
Tok tok!
the sound of my bedroom door being knocked from outside.
"Yes.. who?" my many.
"Hiks.hiks..this is Ann" Ann's voice sounded like someone crying.
I'll open the door immediately.
"Sally's.. Brian jahaaaat..hwaaa hiks hyks" Ann's crying broke out then in my arms.
I asked Ann to sit by my bed.
"What's wrong with you and Brian?" my many.
"Hiks.hiks.. Brian doesn't want to call me anymore. It's because he saw me go with Cello. I like Brian and I like Cello. But at that time I could not choose between them hwaa.hiks hyks." Ann's story was interrupted by her crying.
"I have not yet decided to choose one of them. Brian has even closed his access for me for a few days now hyks hyks hyks." continued Ann.
"Patience Ann" as I pat my best friend's back.
"But I miss Sally. I miss him a lot hwaaaa.... I miss all his funny behavior, his fussiness, and his snickering. When I am sad, he always tries to comfort me. When I was having trouble he went ahead first. Every day he never misses his phone and text messages. Although the question is only a trivial thing like already eating yet, do not sleep late at night and others hiks.." the story is intermittent with crying
"At first I was worried about her excessive attention. But after she shut her access, I really, really lost her Sally. I should how? hwaaaa.hiks hiks" Ann said again.
I couldn't speak anymore I could only hug and pat Ann on the back. I don't know why Ann's words pierced my heart, too.
I also felt something was missing. I shouldn't think like that. I am currently Chris's girlfriend. I am happy with Chris. I can't expect attention from other men. The man was Andrew.
But in my heart I long for our days, our habits. I feel there is an empty space of my heart like the inhabitants left behind.
Without feeling I was crying on Ann's back.
"Ann. we feel the same way." I said in my heart.
"Sorry Ann, this time I can't give you a solution" I whispered quietly.
