'Ash, you are the one whom I trust the most.' These lines were said by Serena to me when we were living back in Seattle. Well, I guess, I haven't been able to move on what happened. I am now feeling kind of... depressed.

I don't know why, but Serena with Calem, now makes me jealous. It's like that I can't see them together. It's not like I hate Calem, but something is hurting me. I don't know, but I wanted to be a part of Serena's life, but I guess I am late. I should have realised the love for Serena earlier, before the reunion. I should have told her my feelings before we went our own ways. Well, it's done now. I guess Serena's name was not written in my diary of life.

Alright, I have decided. I am goanna leave back to Phoenix tomorrow before the wedding. I don't know why I am doing this, but it's like if I see her wedding in front of my eyes, I will be not able to live my life.

As I entered my room, some unexpected happen. My friends excluding Serena and Calem were waiting for me in my room.

"What are you guys doing here?" I asked. Gary lifted his head and saw me.

"Ash, you are back. Are you alright?" he asked.

"Yes, I am fine, but what are you guys doing here?" I asked.

"Gary told us everything Ash." Drew replied.

"Wait, what?" I asked.

"Ash, me and Gary told them everything from starting to end about you and Serena." Dawn replied

"Wait, what?! Why?! Are you mad?" I asked.

"Ash, see. From the starting, I didn't liked Serena and Calem together. I don't know why, but I wanted you to be with Serena instead of Calem." May replied.

"So, why are we discussing this right now?" I asked.

"Ash, I think, we can fix this. There is still time. You can go and tell her your feelings." Clemont replied.

"No Clemont, it's late now. It's over." I said.

"Why is this over Ash? You love her, and that most matters." Drew replied.

"Yes, I love her, but it's not a matter of fact anymore." I said.

"Why?" Drew asked.

"Serena is happy. And that matters to me most. I guess, instead of me, Calem goanna care for her more." I replied.

"How can you say that?" May asked.

"What do you mean? You want Calem's love life to be ended, so tat mine is back alive again?" I asked.

"Ash, your life is more important. It's very rare that a guy like you is in love with someone. And talking about Calem, he's goanna be fine. He already as a line of girls." Dawn replied.

"Still, I can't do it." I replied.

"Why?" Gary asked.

"Because I made a promise to someone." I replied.

"What promise?" Clemont asked.

"Leave it. And I need to tell you all one thing. Tomorrow morning, I am goanna leave back to Phoenix before the wedding." I replied.

"Wait, why?" Drew asked.

"I got a call from the office. They need my help urgently. So, I am leaving tomorrow." I lied.

"Oh." Drew said.

"Alright everyone, I am going back to the party to have dinner. See you there." I replied and went off. Still I could hear Gay talking.

"Man, he really can't manage to see them marry." Gary said.

"Why? He said he is having some work so he's leaving. What's the problem?" Dawn asked.

"The problem is that, this month, the stock market is shut down by the government." Gary replied; hence my lie was caught. They all then turn to me, and watch my back.

I just continued waling forward. Well, I guess, I am not strong enough.
