"When I grow up I'll marry you" a cute boy uttered and gently stroke girls hair into place.
"R-really? But--"
"Freya why you looks so sad?"
"You're still going to marry me though I'm just an ordinary kid? I'm not rich as you too." Ryle Cyriel laugh at her worries, he never think that she may think about that.
At the age of 10 he was not an ordinary kid. He was accelerated because of his IQ and he is a top highschool student at his age, though, at some point he still can get along with some kids like Freya who's a grade 5 student now.
"That's not the bases of love, okay? Mom says that status is changeable and that's the reason why we're studying, right?" She show him a thumbs up then he pat her head.
"Let's have some snacks at home" Ryle hold her hand and she do nothing but nod.
It's Sunday and it's a special family day for Coleman's family.
"Mom? Dad? Hi granny Sha where's mom?
"Oppa! Hi sissy!" It's his 6 years old sister, Riena Claire who's an avid fan of K-pop and anime.
"Hi Rie" Freya wave at her.
"Hijo, just see them at the movie room"
"Thanks granny Sha" he responded and pull Freya yet his sister wants to have fun with Freya so he just let them. They're quite close to each other since Ryle often bring Freya at their mansion.
Granny Sha? She's Sharn, Masha for Raze and Mother Sharn for Lorence. She doesn't have a child so the couple decided her to stay with them as their family.
The other servants was given a chance to work at Raze's company and some was assigned at the grapes farm. They're happy now and thankful for the couple.
"Mom? Dad?" Ryle knocked.
"Hijo, just get inside." He enter then kissed his parents cheeks and he excited tell them that he brings Freya home again. Lorence, as a cool mom was excited too to see Freya, she treats her like her own too.
"Freya, hija how are you?" She started while walking down the staircase. Material © NôvelDrama.Org.
"Hi auntie, I'm fine" she wear her alluring wide smile.
"We bake earlier, let's have a snacks" she offered and ask one of their servant to get them.
"Mommy~" Ryle yells, he's now running after Riena because she get his sketchpad.
"Daddy look! He draw--"
"Shut up! Mommy, she opens my sketchpad without permission!" He complained, a real behaviour of a normal kid.
Everyone around was laughing at Coleman's siblings, Freya chuckles sweetly while "love, I don't want them to grow fast." Lorence suddenly uttered while watching his son and Princess while leaning at his husband's chest.
"I want to yet love I'm also excited for them to grow maybe it's already time to make a new gift." Raze whispered while stroking Lorence curly hair.
"Shhh!" Lorence pinch his cheek before they laugh together.
"I'll break your phone" Ryle's now scaring her and it always works. She loves her phone so much and she don't have the idea of buying new one.
"No! Oppa no! Jebal! White flag! Here oh!" She hand back his sketchpad while pouting, she kind of adorable that way.
They were always like that, they love to tease each other yet Ryle was kind of strict and protective brother towards her. Sometimes he was her nightmare but most of the time he is her shield and knight.
The following day, Ryle again go to school, his personality change because it depends on his surroundings and situation. After school he'll ask his driver to stop by at the elementary school to see Freya, it's always then they'll send Freya home after eating some street foods infront of the school. He only experienced that with Freya.
They were best friends and he thought he already fall for her yet the future was still unknown, unpredictable and not certain. There's no such a certain thing in the world right? Well, maybe the change which is also constant.
They're always together, laugh, cry together. In short they really know each other at the young age, weaknesses, strength and flaw, they don't want to missed each other yet one day after a couple of
years they have to say goodbye. She's now a Senior highschool student and he's already college at the early age of sixteen.
"Iya, I don't want you to cry when I'll leave, okay?"
"L-leave? Why?"
"I told you not to cry yet you're about to cry now!" He said, smiling and cupped her cheeks that turns red. How can he act like that? He is really different.
"I-I don't want you to leave" she said and began to cry. 'How can I leave when you're like this?' he thought, trying to calm himself as he wipe her tears using his thumb then he hugged her tight.
"I'm chosen to be an exchange student in Japan, it only takes little time so you don't have to be sad." He explained though he himself is dying inside. He is so brave to tell her be he can't even convince himself that it'll just take a short time. He had no choice, he's gifted and he already told himself that he don't have a right to reject offers that is connected to his inborn gift.
The schedule of his flight was already settled, he want to stop the time yet it's kicking and badly wants to run.
"Hijo, take care there. Okay?" His dad hugged him. Raze was sweet, gentle, super supportive and a coolest dad. They were lucky to have a hardworking and awesome dad like him, Mr. Full package.
"Thanks dad, see you there then"
"Oppa? Who will play with me? Who will capture my OOTD? I don't have a photographer when I do cosplay too!" She looks sad, she's hugging her sotf panda, Ryle gave it to her when he came from a regional journalism contest.
"Why can't you tell me directly that you're going to miss your handsome brother?" He smiled and pay her head.
"I'll miss you, take care. Okay?"
"Sure thing" he said and hug her too.
"How about mommy? You won't hug the most beautiful lady on earth?" She cutely spread her arms for a hug, she's didn't change. She's very hyper now.
"I'll miss you mom. Follow me there quickly. Please!" He cutely utter and give her a hug.
"We will son" she tap her back, before thay they hear a sob, it's Freya.
"I'll miss you!" He hugged her, a hug like it was the last.
"I told you not to cry, didn't I?" She nod.
"I just can't stop myself. I'm sorry!" She explained and wipe her tears before she finally smile widely.
"Take care" she said and wave her hands like Ryle's family do.
'I'll miss you starting as I you lost in my sight. I'm not used that I'll woke up without your noise. You're my alarm clock, my knight, my crazy best friend, my source of happiness and the owner of my heart. I'll wait until you come back, Ryle.' she thought yet this time she's happy and excited as well. Excited for the day that he'll come back so she's wishing it'll be very soon.
"Congratulations Freya!" Everyone congratulated her since she's the valedictorian, she's happy... extremely happy and at the same time, she's hoping.
"I thought he will comeback for my graduation yet he wasn't here!" She's quite disappointed yet, somehow, she understands him.
Whereas, Ryle was on his way bringing his present for Freya. A huge teddy bear, a necklace and a bouquet of flowers. His peach sports car was damn attractive that made everyone turn around as he pass by yet his eyes was pierced to a group of students, there's three of a man with a beautiful lady.
"Dad can you prepare our plane? I'm going back now!"
"Why son? It's her graduation day right?"
"Yeah! I already saw her. Bye for now dad, thanks!" He utter sadly, deep inside him he knows...I'm jealous.
He turn his car and head at Freya's house, he just left his gift there then leave after a quick conversation with Freya's parents. He leave Cazila without seeing formally and missing the opportunity to talk to her. His feelings itself ruined his system that even how many time he taught himself that what he do was unreasonable, it can't change everything now. He's a damn coward.
"Are you accepting the offer and that's permanently schooling here?" It's his professor.
"Yes sir!" He was serious and even his parents can't change his mind.
"We're glad to hear that Mr. Coleman. Congrats for you and to the school for having a top student like you." He just smile. He just don't feel like going back to Cazila after seeing Freya on someone's arms.
Meanwhile in Cazila, Freya got excited as she hear Ryle's name and thought that he is waiting and dismayed ruled her face as she only found Ryle's gift and a letter.
"Hello? Ryle?"
"Hey, congrats Iya. Do you receive the gift?" He lied.
"Yeah, I thought you would come. How are you?"
"I'm fine, do you mind if I'll drop the call now and I'll call you later?" He said that made her feel sad and thinking that he don't even miss her. It's been a while since the last time they're together. Years!
"S-sure, just take care. Okay?"
"Yes, you too."
7 years later, they don't have a normal communication. She feels like he temporarily forgets her...each other. Ryle has a multiple profession. He can be a pilot like his dad, he can be an architect, he can be a dentist yet he prior to be a lawyer and be the rest at anytime he like and he is needed. He is absolutely excited o go back at Cazila at the moment, he wants to see her again too and everything was planned.
"Ms. Alvarez you should give me the report about the latest accident." The director called her.
"Huh? I'm not a field reporter!"
"I need you there now, bring Tasha's cameraman! Boys, go now!" He commanded and she can't say no so they just drove to the area.
The place was crowded, the police patrol and responder was already there even the investigators.
"I'm Freya Alvarez from ZZ news, we're here today near the Cazila's airport and there's an accident as you guys can see. Let's talk and ask around here first."
"Sir I'm from ZZ news can I have a quick questions for you regarding the accident?" The man nods.
"Sir what time did the accident actually happened? Are you here when it happened? The car's crazily drifted near the cliffs boundary, it's terrible."
"Ah- I'm here and it happened 30 minutes ago."
"30 minutes? Why they didn't bring the person at the hospital?"
"They're still waiting someone!"
"What? That's insane! The responder was already here tho. Thanks for the information." She said and find new witness.
"Sir, sir? Are you a resident of this place?"
"Yes ma'am"
"Do you see what happened? What's the name of the person?"
"I heard he's the son of the famous businessman and a vlogger as well. He is.." her heart thump hard that made her hands tremble and her throat to dry.
"He is Ryle Cyriel Coleman" he added them suddenly she look at the person infront of the crowd that made her eyes widen.
"Ryle? Ryleeeee~" she runs towards him in tears. Only few person was assisting him and now they're done placing him at the stretcher.
He is showering on his own blood and she can't understand the kind of fear, a fear that she never felt before.
"Ryle?"
"Miss don't touch him!" One of the responders team.
"No! Ryle! Ryle woke up! Why you guys didn't bring him immediately at the nearest hospital?" She yell in tears.
"Miss please stay calm!"
"Calm? How can you say that? Look at him! Let's go now. Let's bring him at the hospital!" She cried more hardly, how can she calm at that point? Seeing Ryle again after the total of 8 years and in that condition drives her crazy. She wonder why the music started to play. It was her favourite song. Love someone.
"Waaah! R-ryle? Ryle!" She panicked as her man moves. She feels like everything stops, she can't believe that a bloody man can still move and bend infront of her.
"There are days
I wake up and I pinch myself
You're with me, not someone else
And I'm scared, yeah, I'm still scared
That it's all a dream" he hold her hand and they stood together yet she's still stiffened. She can't still absorb what's currently happening.
" 'Cause you still look perfect as days go by
Even the worst ones, you make me smile
I'd stop the world if it gave us time
'Cause when you love someone
You open up your heart
When you love someone
You make room
If you love someone
And you're not afraid to lose 'em
You probably never loved someone like I do
You probably never loved someone like I do
When you say
You love the way I make you feel
Everything becomes so real
Don't be scared, no, don't be scared
'Cause you're all I need
And you still look perfect as days go by
Even the worst ones, you make me smile
I'd stop the world if it gave us time
'Cause when you love someone
You open up your heart
When you love someone
You make room
If you love someone
And you're not afraid to lose 'em
You probably never loved someone like I do
You probably never loved someone like I do
All my life
I thought it'd be hard to find
The one 'til I found you
And I find it bittersweet
'Cause you gave me something to lose
But when you love someone
You open up your heart
When you love someone
You make room
If you love someone
And you're not afraid to lose 'em
You probably never loved someone like I do
You probably never loved someone like I do
You probably never loved someone like I do"
She blink twice, asking herself if that's really Ryle and he is, no doubt.
"I want to ask you one question! Who's the special man in your life that you want to be with until the rest of your life?" He is expecting a straight answer yet he end up being punched at his chest.
"How dare you to make me worry! How dare you to hurt me like this!" She cried like a kid, snapping his shoulders or where else her palm wants to land.
"Hey, stop that! The whole world see us and they may think that you're a bad girl." He smirked while she looks around and try to calm herself. He is right, there's a lot of cameras now, a lots of flashing sound and all she can feel was an excited aura from everyone.
"So now, Ms. Alvarez. I'll repeat myself again and I don't wish to repeat myself next time. Who's the special man---"
"Can you make it short? Why don't you ask if I love you or not?" She hissed and wipe her tears yet still, she's kind of annoyed but the power of something inside her heart wins.
'Of course it's you Ryle' she thought.
"I guess I don't have to. If you ask me my answer goes this way. I only love one person, a person who hear my promise when we're a kid it's ' when I grow up, I'll marry you ' that woman is you." She don't hear anyone, she can only hear the music of her heart that sings Ryle's name.
"I love you Freya!"
"I missed you and I love you so much Ryle!"
Then, the rain starts to fall... It seem to wash away the missed moments and wash away the doubts.
The world again witnessed how their story starts something new and in upgraded version.
"I promise, I won't leave you again"
"I don't want you to leave again, so , leave with me instead. Let's face the waves of life together. I'd love that than just seeing you in my dreams."
