CHAPTER 30: Engagement Party

CLAIRE’s P.O.V.

The moment that I saw Darren standing a few meters away from me, I instantly felt secured. Maybe he did feel the same way as me... Just maybe.

“C-Claire...” That voice struggled to pronounced my name.

I turned my gaze upon him, surprise seeing him for the first time after we fought in this place. I tried to uttered some words, but I couldn’t. I can’t believe that Darren will find me right after what happened to us.

He ran towards me before giving me a tight hug. My heartbeats undergo palpitation as soon as his body touched mine. I wanted to say something to him, but I can’t find the right words.

“I-I’m sorry...” I heard him whispered.

He set me free from his embrace before looking at me straight in the eyes. I’m still stunned, looking at him unbelievably as if I’m still dreaming.

“I’m sorry, Claire... I didn’t mean to... I wanted to... I just... I can’t say it.”
