She Belongs With Me CHAPTER 38
"What?" Elena asked, trying to be sure she heard him correctly."I'm sorry, it's just...a lot is going on and I don't think this is right for me," "You're kidding, tell me you're kidding, Gavin." She said seriously, her voice void of emotion."I'm not, I can't keep going on like this with you," he said, not even bothering to look her in the eye while he talked."Like what?" She asked, trying to hold back tears. Gavin didn't reply, he just looked away. "Tell me, Gavin! Like what?!" "This! You have so much going on too, and your sister doesn't even like me—""Where is all of this coming from Gavin? You ghosted me for several days and now you're breaking up with me?!" She yelled, and a few people turned to look at them but she didn't care."Yes, I am. I know it may be hard for you to understand it properly but it's for the best, I mean you're still in love with someone else and I..." he trailed off again.Elena didn't say anything to him she just stared at him. She told him all of this

There was no way Elena could pay that fee and still be able to afford her house rent and her feeding for the next few months. She had also promised Emily to spare some money to cover up some of her expenses for the trip. So far things were not going as planned.Elena was snapped out of her thoughts by her ringing phone, she quickly answered it. It was Emily. "Hey, you texted me about a test?" "Yes, I did. I'm at the hospital and the doctor wants to get your cough checked out,""Oh," it was quiet at the other end of a while, "and how much would that cost?" "Emily, the cost doesn't matter. I told you not to worry about expenses," elena said, even though she had no idea where she would conjur up the money from."I know, but I'm still a bit worried. If you want we'll cancel the trip and I'll work and—""No," Elena said, cutting her off. "You have been sick for fat too long, you need to take a break and live out those experiences you couldn't have," "I know, but it should not have to co

"Just a few more days sir, I'm begging you!" Elena cried. She was out of options, she did not know where to go and what to do now."I have given you enough time, Elena! Pack your things in two days or else!" Her landlord did not wait for another word, he stormed out of the apartment. Elena sunk to the floor, her eyes watery with tears. She was exhausted, she had spent the night at the hospital after her 12-hour shift and she had come home to her quick notice. She did not blame her landlord, Mr. Blain, he had been very kind to her. He had given her extended dates but her bills were piling up and he was losing money; he had no choice.She had tried her best to meet up with the deadline, she had worked too many extra shifts her boss had told her there were no extra shifts left for her to fill. But no matter how many times she worked it was never enough to pay her bills. She had to look into other options, her sister's health was quickly deteriorating and she needed to raise the money to

Elena opened her eyes slowly, she was scared. She did not feel any pain, was this what death was like? She was blinded by the headlights that were still blinking at her but the car had stopped a few feet away from her. Elena stumbled backwards and blinked several times, trying to understand what was going on. The owner of the car opened the door and walked towards her, "Are you okay?" Elena was still trying to understand her surroundings so she could not fully register his words or what he was saying."Lady, are you okay?" Elena looked up at the man now, her vision was coming back and so was her memory. "I— I am,""You were not paying attention." He deadpanned. Elena walked backwards and tried to get a better look at him. He was so tall, he towered over her, dressed in an expensive-looking suit; his dark hair was messy, his nose pointed, lips pursed, his jawline was one of the best she had ever seen with a smooth stubble coating it and his brown eyes examined her to see if she was ok

Elena walked into her sister's ward in the hospital, her heart was racing and she had been jumpy since. Ever since she took the money from that strange man she was on an all-time high. She paid her landlord all her outstanding rent that day and then paid in full for her sister's bills, she still had enough left over to fix her beat-up car and pay off some part of her remaining debts."Ellie?" Her sister perked up from the bed the moment she stepped in."Emily," Elena always got emotional when she was in that room. It was a different kind of pain seeing her sister strapped to several tubes to keep her organs working.Emily was a shell of her former self, she was easily tired, her smile had weakened a long time ago, her full hair had now become a thing and short, her eyes were dull and she was a lot thinner; seeing her like that always made Elena tear up but she held it in till she was away from Emily."I was not expecting you, don't you get off work by seven?" Even her sick sister was

Sitting directly opposite someone but being alone seemed to become Elena's life for the next few weeks. She had reluctantly gotten into a relationship with Marcus, and it was not because she was a gold digger or anything; even if sometimes she felt like that. It was because Marcus asked, he looked bored when he did.It happened one night, they had just gotten back from another terrible date where they ate in silence, and before he dropped her off he said, "Elena, will you go out with me?" He looked straight ahead like he could not care less about her answer."Like tomorrow?" She asked sheepishly, Elena was trying to avoid coming to terms with what she thought he was asking. She knew for a fact that he had felt the terrible vibe between them, and there was no space for a romantic pursuit but he had asked anyways…could he not see it?"Like date me. Be my girlfriend, officially." Elena could not tell if the fact he was not looking at her was because he was shy or nervous, but he did not

It was a late night. Elena had just finished her last shift and she was too energetic to go home. Marcus was busy with work, and it was way past Emily's visiting hours. Elena decided to just walk around the breezy city since she had no one else to spend the night with.It made her remember her college days before she dropped out. She was studying business administration at a college not too far from where she grew up but she was not exactly concentrated.She remembered being so young and stupid. She would skip classes a lot, get into trouble with authority and go out drinking or smoking on school nights. She was a smart girl, she had always managed to cover up some part of her syllables just enough to get a B in the exam and move on to the next year. Her parents had tried their best to make her some sense of responsibility but they were too far away to monitor her every move. She remembered Emily being so young, always looking up to her big sister that could do no wrong.No matter how

"So when I was a kid, I used to get this same ice cream combination every time and it drove my mom crazy, she always wanted me to try something new," Gavin said, a smile on his face as he recounted his experience to Elena, who just watched him gleefully."Same. My sister is the adventurous type, any time we went out for ice cream it was a new flavour and a new combo, she was always so ready to experiment but—""You just wanted to stick to a safer option, huh?" Gavin asked. Elena smiled and nodded. It was as if he could read her mind. "I know what that feels like. Maybe one day we should try something different," Elena cleared what was left of her ice cream and stared at Gavin."Maybe, I'm willing if you are," Gavin smirked. He reached for a napkin and reached over to clean a smudge off Elena's cheeks to her utmost surprise. She blushed in return."Sorry, sorry. You just looked too cute with ice cream on your cheeks," Elena laughed. "Are you always this flirty?""No, I'm kind of shy a
