swear it again

chapter six

"Hello? Yolanda? How come you did not come to the airport to pick us? I really missed you." "Hi Bryan, I missed you too. Could you meet me somewhere later. I need to speak to someone now." "Ok. Are you ok?" "Yes, I'm ok. See you later, at my house." I hung up the phone. I can't believe my eyes. I read the article five times, trying to make sure I did not get the facts wrong.

The doorbell rang and I ran to open it. Bryan came in. "Hey! What's the matter? I rushed here as fast as I could." "Oh Bryan! Is it true? Is it? Nicky is marrying Georgina?" I cried as I squeezed Bryan's hands. "You have heard about it?" He said as he turned his head away from me. "You knew about it already? Why didn't you tell me? Why?" I screamed. I was turning hysterical as I pulled away from Bryan's arms. "Why? Why?" I cried as I covered my face with my hands and cried.

"Listen Yolanda." I ignored him and continued crying. "Look here! Nicky is marrying Georgina and there's nothing we can do. He loves her and you know that! I did not want to hurt you. That's why I did not tell you. Besides..." Bryan paused for a moment before he continued, "Yolanda, I love you. You are the one I loved. Not Jessica. Kian loves her."

I looked up, into Bryan eyes. His blue eyes looked back at me. What a fool I am! I have always like Bryan and he has been good to me. He was always there when I needed someone most. And I thought he was just a good friend. He has liked me all along!

"Oh Bryan. I'm so stupid. You are always there for me all along but I never realised it. I was always thinking of Nicky when someone who loves me has always been by my side." "It's ok Yolanda. I just want you to know that I love you and I always will. You are different from all the girls I have known" He held me close to his body. "I'm never gonna say goodbye, 'cause I never want to see you cry. I swore to you my love remain, and I'd swear it all over again..." "I love you Bryan..." I whispered into Bryan's ears.

Bryan bent over, closer...closer...our lips touch for the first time. I could feel his warm breath on my face as we kiss. His lips are warm.

For the first time in my life, I've finally found true love. "I'm never gonna say goodbye, 'cos I never wanna see you cry. I swore to you my love would remain, and I swear it all over again and I...I'm never gonna treat you bad, 'cos I never wanna see you sad. I'd swore to share your joy and your pain, and I'd swear it all over again..."
