Chapter 041

SEBASTIAN'S POV (Bro, why did you tell her right away? I thought you would avoid her when you were out of the Music Club. Did you suddenly change your mind when you saw Vienna?) Britt is the one I'm talking to right now. I told him what had happened earlier in the cafeteria. I don't know why that came out of my mouth, I surprised Vienna. I don't know if she will talk to me after my confession. "I couldn't stop myself from saying that, it just came out of my mouth. What do you want me to answer? That she's my ex-girlfriend? That I'm the guy she left before? That she was the reason why my life was ruined and I changed my view of women, especially in love?" I answered. I felt the pain in my chest again, this was again the familiar pain from the past. (I know that but I hope your answer won't be a reason for her to avoid you. What will she think about you? Your situation has become more complicated right now. Better yet, let's admit to Vienna while there's still time, hours, and days. Let's not wait for her to be the first to know about it and let's not make Vienna suffer for it) I no longer knew what to do, I was having a hard time as well. I wanted to give up, I was losing hope that all her memories would come back. But I have one word that I hold on to until now, I love Vienna, I love her so much. VIENNA'S POV It's already 6 pm, Sebastian and I have just finished our practice. My two friends also picked me up. Sebastian and I had good practice earlier, we didn't feel uncomfortable with each other. He played well, I also sang well and the flow of practice was good as if no confession had happened earlier in the cafeteria. We're out of the Music Club, he's with Brother Dim right now and they're just behind us. Michelle and Therese, on the other hand, just clung to my arm. I can't count how many times they've teased me. They both smiled steadily while I was annoyed, they were thrilled and I was annoyed. I still thought they hated Sebastian because of his behavior. But when I told them what happened earlier, they suddenly changed their mind about that guy. "Friend, how to be you? You have two handsome princes and they both like you." What's Michelle talking about? Tine like me? Impossible. "Yeah right, Vienna, which of them do you like?" Therese added. They make my mind even more confused. "Stop teasing me, my head hurts, don't add to it," I replied annoyed and they both stopped. "It's just a joke, stay calm, friend. It's just a guy. After all, like is different from love, so maybe Sebastian's feelings it's just an infatuation," Michelle said. "Is that still have today, Michelle? We're in college and not in high school. There's no time or day to like someone. You've been here at the university for three weeks, right? So, it's possible that Sebastian likes you," replied Therese. They both have a point but I don't know who I should believe. I still thought that when I asked Sebastian those things, I would feel better but I didn't. I also went home to the orphanage and just parked my car. My body felt so tired today that I didn't do anything else. "Hello, Brother RJ, why do you call?" I asked as I answer the call. I'll stay here outside for a while but I noticed a familiar car. (I just want to say hello to you, you haven't called me for a week. How are you? Have you ever composed a song? Vienna, it's already two weeks) I suddenly slapped my forehead. Geez .. why did I forget about that thing? There is a lot that happened last week, I hope he doesn't get mad at me. "About that Brother, I haven't done it yet. There's a lot that happened last week that's why I forgot. I can't make it now, brother, I'm busy," I replied. (It's fine, Vienna, I know you're busy but I hope you keep your promise to me. Call me if it's ready, okay?) "Yes brother, thank you." (You're welcome, take care, okay?) "I will, you too, Brother," then he hangs up the call. I'm ashamed of my older Brother RJ, he always takes care of me and he doesn't even complain. I'm thankful because he's kind to me that's why I want to make up for him. I also went inside the orphanage, I would have greeted but I didn't go on. What is he doing here? "Thank God, you're home," said Sister Fely when she got closer to my direction. But I was still looking at Tine, yes Tine Alvarez. I don't know why he's here, he didn't text me or call that he was coming. "I'll just get dressed, good evening everyone," I said and passed them. His presence is surprising, I never thought that at this time he would visit here. I also got into my room and when I entered, I went straight to bed. My body is really tired, I want to relax but I can't because Tine is here. "Vienna, it's Sister Fiona, I'm coming in." I got up immediately and opened the door for sister Fiona. Sister Fiona had already entered my room and sat down next to me. "Are you okay? I think you're not in the mood right now. You didn't even greet Tine, did you fight?" Sister asked suddenly. "I'm fine sister, we didn't fight. I'm really tired now because of practice. But I'll just ask, did he come earlier?" I answered and Sister Fiona nodded. "It was about 5:30 in the afternoon when he arrived. He brought food and toys for the children. We also talked to him and he let us know that you will be going out tomorrow," Sister Fiona said with a smile. How can I tell Tine that I can't go tomorrow? It's embarrassing, he already tells and asks permission from the nuns. "But aren't you here to practice with your classmate tomorrow?" Sister's additional question. "That's why, Sister, I can't go tomorrow because of that. I didn't talk to him at the university earlier because I also have a practice. I'm embarrassed sister especially since he said it to you," I replied. "Vienna, maybe Tine will understand you, just talk to him. I think he also hopes that you can go tomorrow. But why did he invite you out? Is he courting you?" she said making me shiver. When a guy invites you on a date, does that mean he likes you? "Get dressed so you and Tine can talk. You can do that Vienna, okay?" I nodded in response to sister Fiona. Sister Fiona also came out of my room then I got dressed. After that, I left the room and went to the living room but Tine was not there. I left the orphanage, I immediately felt the cold air. My skin hair stood up again. Why didn't I wear a jacket? "Tine.." He turned around immediately. He also stood up and approached in my direction. "Why did you go out? It's cold here, I'll come in," he said. "You're not inside that's why I went out," I replied. But he suddenly took off his jacket and put it on me. I stared at his face, why is this guy so nice and sweet to me? "Thank you, Tine," I replied and smiled at him. "You're welcome and I'm sorry if I surprised you earlier. I forgot to text you that I'm coming here. I'm just worried about you because of what happened earlier in the cafeteria." "I told you that I'm okay, right? I'm just really tired, Tine. But thank you for the effort, you came here just to make sure that I'm fine. Thank you, Tine, I appreciate your kindness," I said with a smile. "You're welcome Vienna, as long as it's you. By the way, I already said goodbye to the nuns for tomorrow. They all agreed as long as I'll take care of you," he said with a smile and I can now see the excitement in his eyes. The feeling that he was very happy because he was allowed to go out with me. And I don't want to lose all that because of what I have to say.
