love triangle
"You can just leave everything behind and live your life happily. You have everything. Why do you still want more? Why are you making yourself suffer through all of these?"
Orme said and just then a song started playing in the shop.
People like to tell you what you're gonna be
It's not my problem if you don't see what I see
And I do not give a damn if you don't believe
My problem, it's my problem
That I never am happy
It's my problem, it's my problem
On how fast I will succeed
"I hope that you understood my point of view," she said ignoring Orme's disappointed looks.
"Bad things happen in our lives but it doesn't mean that you need to kick out positivity from your life, my love," Orme signed in disappointment when he noticed that she didn't bother responding to him.
"Ok, let's leave all of these. You got a blind date today evening. He's a doctor. I hope that you are going to like each other as he seemed quite well behaved to me," Orme said before sipping water from a glass.
"I don't have anything to do today evening anyways. I will go there. Tell him to meet me at Rosé Garden Restaurant at sharp 8 pm," she said yawning.
"Umm, well, he has already booked a table in Royale Palace for tonight. He also asked me to get you there by 7 pm," Orme said clearing his throat.
"Are you fu*king kidding with me right now? You know that I hate that restaurant and yet you let him book that restaurant," she screamed.
"Calm down, Eleena. I didn't ask him to book the table. He booked in advance before informing me. Had I known it before, I would definitely stop him," Orme said clearing his throat.
"It's never too late. Tell him to cancel the booking. I will pay him back thrice but we can't go there," she said before standing up with a thud.
"This won't look good. You both are going to meet each other for the first time today. This will leave a bad impression. And think about the plus points. By going there, you will prove that you don't care about him anymore. It will show that you have clearly moved on," Orme smiled when he noticed her thinking about his proposal for a second.
She slowly nodded her head before sitting down.
He left a sigh of relief and mentally started cursing that guy.
"That bast*rd, couldn't he find any other restaurant? Why did he have to die there," he thought while his stomach growled all of a sudden.
"Seems like I am hungry again," he chuckled.
Eleena gave him an amused look.
"When you aren't hungry? I am sure that you must have eaten a few hours ago."
"I did but as you know that I have a habit of eating little by little. I had half a bowl of salad two hours ago. That barely filled my stomach but I didn't feel like eating again," Orme said clearing his throat.
"I was just teasing you. You can have as much as you want."
Orme called a waiter.
"What would you like to have, sir?"
Orme looked at Eleena who again turned cold. The playful side of her was long hidden.
"Would you like something else?"
Eleena shook her head before pulling her phone out of her bag.
"I will have spicy dumpling ramen with cheese on top and bring me two bowls as well as chopsticks," he said looking at the waiter's face, blankly.
"Anything else, sir?"
Orme shook his head.
The waiter nodded his head before leaving from there.
"Why did you have to order spicy dumpling ramen in the first place if you had to ruin its taste with cheese?" Eleena gave him a nasty look.
"I can't tolerate spicy things and you know that, don't you? The cheese is going to make the spiciness fade away," Orme said pouting.
Eleena's playful side was back and a mischievous look covered her face.
"Aww, poor baby. Do you want me to call him back and ask him to mix milk with your ramen? This will make it taste sweeter," she said with a naughty glint.
"I will kill you, girl. You made me have the spiciest ramen by saying that milk will make the spiciness fade away but it became stronger because of it," Orme said glaring at her.
"That's science," she said before scrolling through her phone.
"What are you watching?" Orme said trying to take a peek at Eleena's phone.
Eleena pulled her phone out of his watch and kept it back in her bag.
Orme kept on staring at her for a few seconds without saying anything.
Then he gasped.
"I know it! You are in love with someone. You are secretly dating someone that's why you agreed to this blind that this fast. You just wanted to distract my mind," he said giving her accusing looks.
"Aren't you being overdramatic here?"
"Of course, I am not. You didn't even bother sharing this news with me. You aren't denying it either. You are clearly in love. I knew it!" He said standing up.
"Uff, you are so dramatic. I was just- wait, I am not going to explain anything to you. All you need to know is that if I date someone then you are going to be the first one to know," she said before pulling his hands and making him sit next to her.
"I better be!"
Soon the waiter came with food and Orme thanked him.
He put half of his noodles in one bowl before starting to eat from one of them.
The other one stayed untouched.
In the middle of eating, he pushed away the other ramen bowl.
This action of his alerts Eleena.
"I swear to my gun that I am going to shoot you if you say that you can't eat anymore now," Eleena said glaring at him.
Orme gave her a nervous chuckle.
"Well, you see, God gave me a little weird trait. I am always hungry but when I try to eat a lot, it becomes impossible for me. I tried to convince myself that I should eat but my heart refused to eat anymore."
"You always do this. You know that I hate someone wasting food in front of me but still!"
Eleena gave him a disappointed look.
"I am sorry," Orme slowly said before pushing the other bowl towards Eleena who started eating the rest with her chopstick.
"At least, you aren't a messy eater," she before eating.
She had the hugest appetite according to Orme.
She could easily eat one ramen even if she's already food and this food doesn't even suffocate her.
But in order to keep her body in shape, she has to work out almost every day.
After paying they both started walking around.
Even though Eleena had a lot of drinks tonight, she wasn't drunk.
Not even a bit tipsy.
She had a good alcohol tolerance, unlike before when she couldn't stand still after having a few shots.
A guy was playing guitar while sitting in a corner.
He looked familiar to Eleena and her eyes widened when she finally noticed who he was.
Her heart started beating faster than before.
"Stop you, dumb heart, you can't beat when you are around him. You don't care about what he does, remember?" She cursed herself mentally.
There goes my heart beating
'Cause you are the reason
I'm losing my sleep
Please come back now
And there goes my mind racing
And you are the reason
That I'm still breathing
I'm hopeless now
He didn't notice her but he could feel like she was close. His voice holds the pain of separation. It seemed as if he was suffering.
I'd climb every mountain
And swim every ocean
Just to be with you
And fix what I've broken
Oh, 'cause I need you to see
That you are the reason
His eyes were the only part of his face shown yet they were successful in expressing his emotions more than many top-notch actors could.
There goes my hands shaking
And you are the reason
My heart keeps bleeding
I need you now
If I could turn back the clock
I'd make sure the light defeated the dark
I'd spend every hour of every day
Keeping you safe
The pain and suffocation of regret could be easily understood by his glossy eyes.
Someone said correctly, ' Eyes are the mirror to our heart. Everything we feel is reflected in our eyes.'
And he wasn't some exception.
I'd climb every mountain
And swim every ocean
Just to be with you
And fix what I've broken
Oh, 'cause I need you to see
That you are the reason
Orme who noticed all of these could only smile bitterly. He was feeling just as much pain as them both.
Why won't he? After all, the person he did all of these for was so easy to be taken away.
The girl he loved could never be his anyhow.
Three souls, all of them were slowly dying yet no words were left from their mouths.
