Nathan's eyeballs move around, searching for an answer through the nooks and crannies of his brain. What should they do? How would they meet?
'And I could not suggest moving into your house, your mother would kill me.' He said which make all emotion drain off amethyst's face.
'you don't even know my mother and you're talking like that. Why would you move into my house, wont your parent be worried too? My mom isn't even strict….
'Where are you Ammy baby, don't stay out late at night, university boys can be dangerous.' Nathan cut in, mimicking amethyst's mother.
'but you wanted to invite that dangerous university boys to where she stays, she surely would burry me alive.' Nathan proceeded, folding his arms.
'you were sent to school but you end up in your girlfriend's house, won't Mr. and Mrs. President come to arrest both me and my house?' amethyst replied sarcastically, rolling her eyes. All her statement was just to make it clear to Nathan that it is not only her mother that can go against what he just mentioned.
'okay, okay, its clear we cant move in together,… but let's keep talking over the phone and pray that the vacation gets over soon.' he said while amethyst pouted her lips though she had no other choice.
'But I wont see you, I would miss you' she said.
'I would miss you more.' He replied, gazing back at her.
'Can't we just remain in school and stay with each other forever?' she suddenly lamented, her brow creasing babyishly.
'No, I don't want that.'
'Why? Don't you want to keep staying with me? Won't you miss me if we go for the holiday?'
'I would but… I want us to finish school as soon as possible. I just wish that it is already our coronation day so that to your mom, I wont be just a dangerous university boy but… her son-in-law. Cant wait for us to get married.' He said which make amethyst's brow dispersed and a light smile took over her face. Nathan adjusted in his seat, turning over to look at her while amethyst stare directly into his eyes.
'I love you.' He said as his hand move and wrap around her waist.
'I love you too.' She replied and hug him, resting her head on his chest.
'let's be like this, let us enjoy ourselves till the time elapse and we separate. Even if we have to leave each other, my heart would be with you. I want you to know that.' He said, their heart beating simultaneously.
'I would miss you' she sighed while Nathan keep patting her back with a 'me too'
******
'You must do' she said, pouting her lips while Nathan smile back, pulling her cheek.
'I would call you immediately I got home.' He replied while amethyst step back, gazing at him with her watery eyes.
'I am not reluctant to let go of you, no I am not. We would meet soon, so …. Goodbye.' She said and heaved heavily, trying to sound brave.
Though they have enjoyed their self for the past two weeks, she still did not want to let him go. All other students were already filling out of the school. Few even did a few days ago but the duo waited to have more fun till today when all other student have no choice than to check out of the school.
Nathan's hand moved forward and he pull amethyst back into his embrace.
'Close your eyes and let us say goodbye. Before you know it, the vacation would end and we would be back together so… sacrifice today.' He said, wiping off the drop of tears that roll down her cheek.
'My regards to everybody Nath, I would miss my bus if I keep talking here so… goodbye, my mom is already waiting.' She said, trying to be brave. She reaches out for her luggage and step to the back, a thin line warm smile in her face to hide the reluctance that was in it.
'bye' she waved while he waved back then he walk toward the bus that was already ready to move. She turned back once again and wave at him with a smile on her face.
Nathan waved at her till the bus drove away, then the smile on his face fade away, turning cold. He had no one to talk to again. He is nothing but the psychopath that would not say a word.
A black SUV pulled up in front of him and a man alighted from it. He pull open the back seat and looked at Nathan.
'young master, please come in.' He said, bowing his head deeply. Nathan looked toward where amethyst's bus has disappeared before walking into the car, killing the hesitation in his eyes.
The car zoomed off afterwards.
