Empire High School - Season 1 - Episode 112

It had been fun to be with everyone!
I close my eyes for a moment to blink back
tears.

“Don’t cry Kate” I chanted with a faint sigh.

I opened my eyes and turned to the door
only to find Jeffrey in front of me, his arms
crossed over his chest, a look of
disappointment on his face. I blinked a few
times in surprise at seeing him. I really
wasn’t expecting Jeffrey to follow me
when I slipped out of the Hall.
“I thought you’d left already” he said
I glanced automatically towards the door.
When did he come in?
Jeffrey mouth twisted.
“I can’t believe you were planning on
leaving without telling me anything”
I looked at him
Is he aware?
Perhaps did Elena inform him that I was
leaving?

No she already promised to keep it a
secret!

My heart beats faster
Jeffrey rubbed his hand over his face. And
he sighed
“I know you are traveling out tonight”
My head snapped up immediately.
How did he find out?!

“Wh..who.who told you?” I asked before i
could stop myself.
Jeffrey eyebrows rose.
“That doesn’t matter! The fact remains that
you never wanted me to know about it!”
His response was blunt and I could see the
anger in his expression.
“I’m sorry” I whispered
He held up his hand
“You should have informed me! Do you
even know how foolish I felt when Elena
asked me to look for you before it’s too
late?! Two weeks Kate, it was enough for
you to discuss with me. And we met every
single day but you didn’t talk about it!”
Elena eventually told him.

Should I be mad at her?

Or
Grateful for telling Jeffrey?
“I would have understand it if you had
explained to me. I was really a fool to not
suspect anything!” He added
“You don’t..Understand” I muttered
shakily.

“I was willing to take any risk for us. I
never hid anything from you. But I was so
dumb for thinking that our love was
leading us somewhere into the Future.
Whereas It never meant anything you”
My heart broke at his words
I sensed him withdrew even more into
himself.

“You can leave. Goodbye”
He took a step backward, his expression
shuttered.

“Jeffrey..”
I grabbed his upper arm but he stepped
away.

“Let me explain”
Tears burned down my cheeks
“You had two weeks to explain but you
didn’t -”

He turned to leave. No! He can’t leave!
I don’t want us to end on this note!
“Jeffrey please listen to me. I’m so sorry”
I sobbed blocking his pathway towards the
door.

“I’m sorry just listen to me this once” I
pleaded fearfully.

He stepped backward, putting a distance
between us.

“I couldn’t -” I paused
Trying to control my tears.
“You are not dumb for thinking our love
was leading us into a place in the future..
I’ve thought about it too. And if it were left
to me, I’d stay here with you” I cried
“I wanted you to be happy that’s why i
didn’t tell you. And I don’t want to break
with you because I still want to be with
you. I had placed your feelings above mine.
Jeffrey, I meant it when I said no matter
where you are I will always carry you in my
heart because I love you” I sobbed loudly
Tears flowing uncontrollably.
Then Jeffrey leaned forward and hugged
me.

“I’m..so.. Sorry” I said
“Its okay. And I’m sorry for
misunderstanding you” Jeffrey muttered
I embraced him tightly
“Katherine I will never say goodbye to you
because I will love you forever. You wanna
know why? It’s because I have been able to
face every difficulty in my life with you by
my side. And I will be able to face difficulty
of tomorrow if you remain in my life.
