Chapter 56
Their days at the private resort have been fun, especially when the younger girls decided to go home but unfortunately, Lily had stayed for a day. Well, she isn't much of a bother to Hayley but to Eleanor, she's a damn fly.
That little girl actually confessed her feelings to Jasper but he immediately turned her down. Lily must have been so hurt that she asked Greg to take her home yesterday and now it's only them.
Down to their last day in the resort and there is nothing much to do now. They have explored the woods and hiked the mountains the past few days. So, right now they are just bathing under the sun.
Near the shoreline were Eleanor, Jasper and little Bren playing while the waves are crashing on their legs. Hayley displayed a smile. They look so perfect and happy together.
Not so far from the shore is Mafu, snorkeling with Kenji. She wanted to join them but she is feeling so lazy today. Hayley just wants to freakin' sleep. Plus

Their last night didn't go well as planned for Kenji and Hayley. No big fight happened last night, they just talked a little. But right now, as they ride back home, they were not talking to each other. Although they are sitting together, even Hayley has her hand wrapped on Kenji's arm, it's visible on their faces that something was wrong. "Did you guys forget your laughs and happy faces at the resort? This ride seems so quiet!" Greg noticed. He just got back and everyone feels like they have lost a tournament or something. "Just freakin' drive. We are all tired because we had a bonfire last night," Mafu told him. "You guys had--" "Shush it, Greg!" Kenji snapped. Before focusing on driving, Greg glanced at each one of his passengers through the rearview mirror. This will make him fall asleep, this is no more fun than when they were heading to the resort. And to think it's hours and hours of driving. When it was lunc

After that trip, every one of them had gotten so busy preparing for college. Even though some of them are going to the same university, they're separated by departments. It's a big place and it is sometimes scary. It has been three days since Hayley moved out of their unit and Kenji feels lonely. It's like those days when Hayley didn't come home to him for days. He feels left alone. He got used to having her by his side that whenever she's not here, it feels damn lonely... so lonely. It's a chilly night out at the rooftop and he's just leaning against the rail, watching the city lights, the cars which are passing by so fast. Somehow, it made him recall the days when all he had was himself, his plans and the reasons why he is married. He looked up, laughing sarcastically at his self. A year ago, he told himself that he would chase his dreams, his plans without his father's help. He remembers, swearing to his brother's grave that he'd not lose himself. He

It's been three months since Jasper bought the condominium unit Greg helped him with. Mafu, Kenji and Eren have helped him with the interior design.

It's just when he got there, they were not in a pleasant mood. Jasper hopes that when he gets there today, everything is good so he can go on with the surprise.

Mafu was giving Greg a ride home when suddenly his phone rang. It was Kenji and when he answered in speaker, they heard somebody else's voice that had them frowning. "Hey, uh... this is a bartender from Paradise Bar. The guy's wasted, please pick him up." Before answering, Greg and Mafu looked at each other with a here we go again look on their faces. "Yeah, we'll be there in a few minutes." Then the call ended. As they make a u-turn, Mafu sighed. This scene has been replaying almost every night now with Kenji. He seemed to be slipping away from the Kenji that has plans, the Kenji they all know who is composed, playful and happy. "He's getting addicted to drinking. Do you think we should tell Hayley about this?" Greg asked Mafu. "I mean she can tell him to stop. He will listen because it's her." "It won't work," Mafu muttered as he plasters a poker face. "Do you see how she's treating him? She sees how he is wasting himself, she sees how

Hayley has been having a hard time the past few weeks. Her midterm projects are coming up and the girls had gotten her doing all these other works that she needed to do. Honestly, she is so fucking stressed out. It's been many nights and it's not easy to think when you are sleep-deprived. There are way too many cups of coffee that she had and one is still half full on her table. This is fucked up, she thought, swearing that after this project, she would go home and spend time with Kenji. She has not been able to spend time with him and she kept missing celebrations too. Two in the morning and she isn't done with her sketching yet-- almost done, just some slight touches so she can submit it tomorrow. She was doing it, focusing on it when suddenly her phone vibrated making her shift her gaze. Hayley put down her pencil and slide to answer her phone.

The room was quiet, only her soft cries were heard and the air was so hard to breathe in. Kenji was just staring at the wall, thinking over how things had led this way. Once he sorted everything out, he displayed a faint smile. "I guess I become a bother to you now, huh?" He glances at her but she just looked away. It's best she doesn't meet his gaze. "I mean it when I said I want to stay with you. I told you I'd lose myself if you leave, you still went anyway. I guess I left you less choice, huh?" Kenji laughed sarcastically, standing up. He turned to her and asked, "Are you really done with me, Hayley?" It hurts her but she nodded. Just then she hears him laugh again, grunting as he suddenly takes the bottle and throws it at a wall, its shards went everywhere startling her. Hayley tried to remain composed. "I'll have Carter come and take my things," he uttered, biting his lower lip hard before continuing. "This unit is yours if you want it. I only c
