Sweetest Escape

Go away

Kayla twists herself, and is shocked to find Arden in front of her. So is Aretha. I don't know since when Arden was there, and it's possible that Arden had heard their whole conversation.

"Are, let me talk to Kayla" Arden said.

"You guys talk. I'll go first" said Are.

Arden looked at Kayla who turned her face the other way. He heard everything the woman said. Kayla really doesn't consider him a friend in life.

"What are you saying, is it true?" ask Arden.

Kayla looked at Arden. "Actually you don't consider me a friend. No friend has hurt his own friend. Just you, Arden. You're the man who hurt me."

Arden nodded. "Yes, but I didn't think you could talk like that. We fight a lot, but that moment is better too."

"We were not adults before. It's different now, Arden. I don't want to know you anymore" Kayla said.

Arsen forced a smile to rise on his lips. "That means, my decision was right. I better go."

"Better so. With you not near me, my life is peaceful. There will be no more spicy words that pierce my heart. My life is happy when you're not around me."

"Yes. I admit my mistake. I'm sorry, Kayla" Arden said, then left.

Kayla blinked, she suddenly wanted to cry. Seeing Arden leave, his heart ached. He stepped in to chase the man, but he stopped.

"It must be because of our relationship. After all, Arden is my friend" Kayla said.

Kayla's heart condition is not bad. He asked Raka and her mother to go home soon. Kayla wants to be with her parents tonight, and Steve has to be willing not to sleep with his fiance.

While Arden had been silent in the room. The picture with Kayla, Aretha, and Davin is still there. A photo of him with his twin brother celebrating his seventh birthday. At that time Arden smeared Kayla's face with cream cake. Davin scolded her for always bothering Kay, and at that time Arden doused Davin with a glass of water that even made Aretha angry with him.

Arden also recalled when Davin always wanted to be with Kay. Arden was always in the way because the fat Kayla was only allowed to be close to him.

Arden smile. "Kayla used to be, like a doll. He's very funny. Until now so too. Now he is very mature, already willing to marry with the most handsome man. Kay, you've changed. If so, I'll change too."

On the other hand, precisely in a bedroom, Kayla stared at the photos of their togetherness since childhood. He remembered that word. It's outrageous, but Kayla has to decide regardless of who Arden is in her life.

There is no one like Arden. Every friend should support whatever is the life choice of his partner. Arden is not. The man was hostile to her, always looking for her and Steve.

"I hope he's a little grown up. I hope Arden brings his life partner back. I will prepare a special gift for her" Kayla said.

...****************...

The departure has arrived. Elena, Kevin, Aretha and her niece and sister-in-law also drove to the airport. Just one backpack that Arden had brought. There is a lot of stuff in the apartment. Arden was just carrying documents in the backpack he was carrying on his back.

"Come in touch with Mama when you get there" said Elena.

"Take good care of yourself, son," Kevin added.

"Back when Aretha gave birth" Davin said.

"I don't know yet" said Arden.

"You're not coming back?" Aretha scowling.

"Not know."

Aretha folded her hands on her stomach. "Just look you didn't come home when I gave birth."

Arden exhaled a rough breath. "Yes, I'll try to go home. It's still a long time your second child was born."

Arden hugged his nephew, Daren. "My dear, Uncle go first. You don't be naughty."

Daren nodded. "Yes, Uncle. But don't forget to send Daren the toy he wants."

Arden hugged the boy tightly, then turned to Elena, Kevin, Aretha and Davin. Call for passengers arriving. Arden waved as a sign of farewell. He left, but did not know when he would return.

...****************...

Passing through the grueling journey, Arden could not rest. He had to clean up his entire apartment that was filled with dust.

It's a pity to waste money just to hire a janitor. The pay for them was very expensive, but the work of the janitor was indeed very satisfying.

Arden also does not like his apartment in the entry by strangers, and besides he can still work on his own. At the very least, homework can throw thoughts about someone across there.

Arden grabbed the phone, he put Kayla's number in the black box. If Kayla had decided to forget about it, then Arden was the same. There's no woman named Kayla in her life from now on.

Arden also called Elena, saying that she had arrived safely, and had contacted Dika if she had returned.

"I forgot to call Lauren. He must have been looking for me. I'll call you on a video call," Arden said, then make the call immediately.

Lauren lifted him up, the woman was wearing a towel, and her hair was wet. Looks like Lauren's out of self-cleaning.

"Yesterday you didn't call me" Lauren said.

"I'm in America now."

"What's? When?" lauren asked in shock.

"Just until this morning. Yesterday I left" replied Arden.

"You didn't tell me, and we haven't said goodbye."

Arden laughing. "Sorry, I haven't had a chance. We can still do fun over the phone."

"I don't want to. What's delicious?"

"Yes, yeah, it's up to you if you don't want it. I have a lot of women here."

"When are you coming back?" ask Lauren.

Arden shrugged his shoulders. "I don't know."

"You'll be there forever?"

"Lauren, I like you" said Arden. "You're not like other women. You don't think of me as your own."

Lauren smiled behind the screen. "You said we were just playmates, and I thought so too. If you say you want to marry me, then the status is different. I won't let you glance at another woman."

Arden laughing. "Don't sleep with just any man."

Lauren shakes. "will not. I promise I won't sleep with a stranger I just met."

"Hey! Don't promise like that. If I don't get a good woman here, I'll marry you."

"I hope you'll never get it" Lauren said with a laugh.

"Your prayers are very evil. Never mind, I'll see you later. I'll call you often."

"See you." Lauren opened the towel.

Arden kissed it from afar, then disconnected the video. Arden likes Lauren as she is. If you don't get what you want, being with Lauren doesn't matter.
