Mark's POV
"Mark, I need to inform you something!" As soon as I came back from my office, Ella told me that she needed to talk about something which made me serious.
"Yeah, sure! Let's talk!" I responded while we both sat on the couch. I looked around and guessed Eva is still not home.
"Mark, my office is throwing a big event."
"Ohh that's great!"
"But I need to go to the U.S for this event." She sighed.
I know why she's feeling like this. We just started to live and she needs to leave me.

I don't know how to react because this morning mom first told me that she is going abroad for 1 month and today again at dinner she informed me that her company already booked her plane ticket for the next morning. It means tomorrow in which only a few hours have left. I inhaled the long breath feeling helpless. Everything is happening so fast that I can't even guess what's going to happen next after she is gone. For mom, I agree to not leave the house and stay with Mark on the same roof without her. But was it the right decision? I felt hesitant. "Eva! You are thinking too much again!! Just be calm!" My other half said to me. "Yes! That's what I need to do. Just look calm and cool! Like al
Author's POV"Eva, are you feeling upset?""Huh?" She looked at him a little surprised while their running turned slow. They both tried to match their rhythm for steps."I mean, Ella told me that you don't like to stay alone! And she needs to go on a business trip for a whole month! How do you feel about that!?" His eyes always focused on her face while she retreated her gaze from him and looked straight before answering him."Yes! Mom is right! I hate being alone! And yes, I'm a little sensitive! Because mom is the only one I have now!"His eyes turned soft to hear her words and understand the meaning behind them very well.
"Now, it's time for me to leave!" Mom said with a sad smile. My tears couldn't help themselves from coming out the next moment and I hugged her again."Mom!" I felt sad while resting my head on her shoulder."Sweetie!" She patted my back lightly."Don't cry, sweetheart! I'll be back soon!" Mom's voice filled with concerns."Yes, you definitely need to!" I asserted which made her chuckle the next moment and I also smiled."Yeah! I will!" She said warmly.We stayed in a hug for a few more minutes. Before finally releasing ourselves.

Eva's POVIt's almost going to be 3 pm, and all I can do turning over my bed with discomfort heart. I also almost cried thinking about Mark and my memorable moment in this room. I know crying will not change anything any longer, but I wish to see him last time alone and ask for forgiveness. I just want to simply apologise to him for rejecting the love he offered me for my selfishness. I don't want to see hate in his eyes when I leave. I don't want to face the cold shoulder even when this is my last time to see him. Though I'm scared to face him right now, my heart wants to go and say my last words to him. I feel so helpless at this moment because my heart still desires him, and if, any chance, he requests me any more time to stay, I don't think I can say 'No' to him even after being headstrong. And something like that, I don't want to happen. I don't want to divert my mind from the main motive. So, I can only imagine my dream of facing him for now. Staying in bed made me feel more

Don't worry." I respond in assurance."Hmm." She hmmed and said with an upset tone, "So, you are finally leaving tomorrow."I paused momentarily before responding, "Yeah, I guess so."I thought, after Mark knew I was leaving, he will do an argument with me, but to my surprise, he did not say anything. Now, I feel I need to apologise to him for all my actions and words. At least before saying goodbye, I need to thank him, to decide, stay with my Mom. He could leave without owing anything if he wanted, but he did not. He chooses to stay."Hey Eva, our friends want to come airport tomorrow to bid you farewell." Nish's words made me instantly stop packing and pick up the call, changing its mode from loudspeaker to normal."Nish, I have a request." I instantly replied." Request? For what?" Her
