A Truthful Lie: Ch 28: Just Right

Ch 28

She woke up the next morning and walked into the guest room where Ron was still sleeping. She didn’t know why he had come up to her place in the middle of the night...but she knew it wasn’t because he missed her. It was always like this. She was his rock, his shoulder to lean on...and he said that he would do the same for her...but for some reason the time for her to lean on him never arrived.

He slowly opened his eyes to realize that she was standing at the door just looking at him. A smile appeared on his face at the sight of her still in her PJs.

Ron: Good morning beautiful

Myolie: Good morning

Ron: No coffee today?

Myolie: I just woke up as well

Ron: Ah...how about we both just go back to sleep...I mean...you can join me here...and we could just cuddle up

Myolie: I think you forgot that you’re in a relationship

Ron smiled: That’s true...for a moment there, I thought we were together...

Myolie smiled: I think you’re still asleep...since you’re obviously dreaming...I’ll give you some time to wake up, while I go wash up and change

Ron: Aww...but I like you in your PJs

Myolie: Oh well

With that she smiled and walked back into her room.

Ron slowly got up and out of bed towards the bathroom. He looked himself in the mirror and wondered just what exactly he wanted. Why was he here? Did he really want to talk to her, or was he there because he wanted to simply see her? He quickly washed up and walked out to the living room where he sat there waiting for her.

Ron: Do you really need to take that long

Myolie: What? Do you want me to walk out naked?

Ron: Honestly, I wouldn’t mind if you did...it’s not like I haven’t seen you naked before

Myolie: That doesn’t count...we were five. How do you even remember?

Ron: How do you remember?

She walked out and threw a pillow at him

Ron chuckled: Since you can’t beat me with words, you’re getting physical now?

Myolie threw another pillow at him: And what if I am?

Ron picked up the pillow and started going after Myolie with it.

Myolie: Ron Ng...You better drop that pillow, or else

Ron: Or else what?

She went head first and tackled him onto the couch. The both of them broke out in laughter.

Ron: This was your ‘or else’?

Myolie: Yup...what do you think?

Ron: I like it... (he slowly wrapped his arms around her)...I like it alot

Myolie instinctively pushed him away and got back onto her feet.

Myolie: Ron...you’re getting carried away again...

Ron: Right...sorry...but really, it’s not my fault...there’s something about you that makes me...I don’t know

Myolie: The great Ron Ng is lost for words...I think I’ve accomplished a nearly impossible feat

Ron smiled: Thanks

Myolie: For what?

Ron: For being you...for letting me in, in the middle of the night...for waking me up...and throwing things at me...and tackling me down...

Myolie smiled: That’s really sweet...but again, if Tavia heard you say those things...

Ron: I think she always knew that you had and always will have a special place in my heart

Myolie: Ok...so, you came in the middle of the night...because?

Ron: I’m not sure

Myolie: You’re not sure...Ron...you do realize we’re not kids anymore...you can’t come to my place in the middle of the night because you feel like it

Ron: I know...but...why not? I wouldn’t mind if you come over to my place in the middle of the night...

Myolie: Really? Do you even know how many times I’ve done that...and you weren’t home. Sometimes I wanted someone to talk to too...but you just weren’t there. I feel like in this odd relationship between us...

Ron: I’m sorry...I guess...I haven’t been the best of friends when I should be. It’s just...sometimes I just really really want to see you...and I have no logical explanation as to why. Like last night, after going out with Tavia...without even realizing where I was going, I ended up in front of your place. I pretended that I wanted to fill you in on my date with Tavia...but...what I really wanted to do...was see you.

Myolie: Why?

Ron: I don’t know...maybe...you can help me answer that one?

Myolie: I think it’s best if you can sort out your own thoughts...oh...my dad asked if we were going to be dance partners at the company ball...I think we shouldn’t

Ron: Why ?

Myolie: I think I need a little break from you...cause I have some thoughts to sort out as well

Ron: Ok...if that’s what you want...

She took a seat next to him

Ron took a hold of her hand: I promise I’ll be around more in the future...and if you ever want to talk to me, just give me a call

Myolie smiled: Sure...but...I also wanted to talk to you about something...

Ron: Ok...what is it?

Myolie: Since we’re not going as partners this year...I agreed to go with someone else...

Ron looked at her: Mr. Chan?

Myolie nodded

Ron: Interesting...do you think I should break up with Tavia?

Myolie: What?

Ron: I don’t know...lately I’ve been questioning whether or not I’m really in love with her...or if it’s just an infatuation...

Myolie: Vanilla ice cream...

Ron: I guess...I don’t know...

Myolie: So, what made you question it?

Ron: It was when I embraced Leila...

Myolie: So, you’re in love with Leila now?

Ron: No...I don’t think I am...it’s just this feeling that I get...it’s hard to describe...but when I’m with Tavia...we just feel like this old couple who are together cause we’ve been together...if that makes any sense. Whereas with Leila...I feel as though I make her heart race a bit, I make her blush...it’s nice to be able to do that...

Myolie: And...how do you feel when...we’re together

Ron looked at her: It feels right...not sure what that’s supposed to mean...but...ya

Myolie: I’m glad it feels right...and...Ron, I think Leila might be in love with you...

Ron: I guess that’s a possibility...and would explain her blushing, and raised heart rate...but then...

Myolie: I think you should go home and think things through...

Ron: You’re probably right...ok...since you want some time...I guess I won’t be randomly appearing in front of you any time soon...so we’ll talk again at the ball?

Myolie: I’d like that...a lot

Ron smiled: Great

The two of them got up and walked towards the door...before leaving, Ron wrapped his arms around her and embraced her...and he was right...it did feel...just right

=========================

What? Another Ron and Myolie filled chapter...what's going on? Ah...I don't know either. I think it was expected and...the next chapter will also be the second last chapter...yes...this fanfic is coming to an end. The next chapter will be filled with TaRo as well as RL moments...and I'm really anticipating the RL scenes that I have planned...it's going to be...nice.

As for TaRo...I think we all know what's to come and...I hope that if you're a TaRo fan...keep an eye out for The Stalker...which I will update next week. I also have another installment of Off the Records in mind...a TaRo filled installment...but...I think I'll do that when it's closer to my exam as a stress reliever.

Anywho...I really need to stop rambling. Please, remember to leave me a comment or many comments. I always look forward to reading them, and I thank you all for reading my fanfic. 

Randomness...OUT!!!

Have a fantabulous day!

Take 2: Ch 23

Howdy folks,

This update is a week late because last week I got my wisdom teeth taken out and I was basically in bed and in pain. I hope you still have some faith in me...and continue to read my fanfics lol

===========================

Ch 23

Ron: Study time? I feel like that’s more to my advantage than yours

Linda: Well...we’ll see about that when the final comes

Ron smiled: So, when would you like me to pay you back?

Linda: It does seem like you want to get rid of me as soon as possible...

Ron: Oh...I...

Linda smiled: I’m just joking...anyways, you won’t be able to get rid of me so soon. I have to get going...but I’ll see you around. And remember, you owe me

Ron: Bye...and...thanks

Linda: For what?

Ron: Everything

Linda: You always say that...but I don’t think I’ve done anything

Ron: You’ve done more than enough...trust me...I know

Linda: Ok...bye

He got back into is lying position, closed his eyes and continued to listen to his music. Her smile is beautiful, he thought to himself. He then quickly got up, looked around and spotted her just walking off. He got to his feet and ran after her. Tapping her on the shoulder, he tried to catch his own breath.

Ron: Linda, wait

Linda: What is it?

Ron: I...don’t know

Linda: What? You just ran here, and you don’t know why...Ron, that doesn’t make sense

Ron: Maybe...subconsciously I...

Linda: You subconsciously what?

Ron: I don’t know

Linda: You don’t know...interesting.

Ron: Oh...uh...I...maybe...

Linda: Ron...breathe, then think, then speak...try it in that order

Ron smiled: Ok... (He took a deep breath, then looked at her)

Linda: And

Ron: Much better

Linda: So...you came running because?

Ron: Um...if you see Leila can you tell her to check her email

Linda: That’s it? You ran all the way here to tell me that? Sure

Ron: Well no...I wanted to tell you something else too

Linda: Well...

Ron: You have a really nice smile

If It Was A Fanfic: The Break-up: Initiation

So, lately I've been glancing at the 'huge' controversy that arose from the break-up between Shirley Yeung and Gregory Lee. My mind seem to have come up with a million different explanations for their break-up and everything that's going on...thus, I thought, why not write it. So, this is my version of why they broke up and all of the things that seem eerie about what's happening between the two of them. I hope you enjoy it.

Shirley: Gregory, we need to talk, about the wedding...

Gregory: What about it? Is it the flower? See, I told you from the beginning that those expensive champagne colored roses are just hyped up flowers for weddings...we should stick to the more traditional red roses

Shirley: It's not the roses...I want to call off the wedding..

Gregory: I guess we could just fly to Vegas and do it there, it would be a lot more intimate that way

Shirley: Gregory, listen...I don't want to get married anymore

He looked at her, a bit confused but regardless he placed his hand on hers...

Gregory: I know you're getting cold feet...but, we've been together for nine years...we love each other...

Shirley: It's not cold feet...I just realized that I only agreed to get married to you because we've been together for so long...I thought that marriage was the inevitable...I thought that we would have this lasting relationship that everyone in the industry will be jealous of...but...I just don't feel that way about you anymore

Gregory: What do you mean? Don't you still love me?

Shirley: I do...but...it's not the same...

Gregory: Not the same? Shirley, you just got to calm down and think about it, everyone knows we're getting married, I'm still deeply in love with you...don't you think this is just your nerves before the wedding...it's going to be ok, we can get through this...and if you really want, we could postpone the wedding, until you realize that what you're feeling now, isn't what you really feel...

Shirley: I know what I want, I want to break up with you...and if you want me to be happy, then please...

Gregory: You're being unreasonable...give me a good reason why we should even consider breaking up

Shirley: I'm in love with another man

Gregory: What:? Who? You're just making up stories now...I know you had rave reviews playing as a villain in The Brink of Law...but...it's just not working this time around

Shirley: I'm not acting, I'm really in love with another man...and you can ask him yourself

Gregory: Is it my brother?

Shirley: No! It's Andy...

Gregory: What? Andy Lau is married...and I don't really know him...

Shirley: My friend from highschool

Gregory: Really? Him?

Shirley: Yes, him...see you just don't understand me. You always think you know what I want, you always think you know the answers to everything...but you don't. I didn't care about the fact that I made more money than you, but you insisted that you should pick up other jobs and do this and that...which just ended up in us spending less and less time together. You think that I want to have a bunch of kids, but all I want is to have two...everytime we discuss our wedding plans, you always insist that you know what I want

Gregory: Then why didn't you say anything? Why are you doing this now?

Shirley: I didn't say anything because I respect you and love you...but I can't take this anymore...and I realized I can't live the rest of my life like this either...so, if you really love me, just let me go

Gregory: You want me to let go of this relationship we've had for so long...I can't just let go...I can't stop myself from loving you, but...because I love you, I'm willing to sacrifice everything for you to be happy (a tear trickled down his cheek)

Shirley: Thank you...and...could you tell your family about it...and I'll tell mine...I wouldn't know exactly how to face your parents...since they've always treated me like a daughter, all these years

He nodded: But, my birthday is coming up, and well...my parents are expecting you to be there...so if you could come, one last time as my girlfriend

Shirley: I think that's the least I could do

He gave her a warm embrace, but her heart didn't flutter at his touch...and she knew this was how things should resolve for them...

============================

Leave a comment and tell me whether or not I should continue with this thing...the next part, would be called Public Exposure...but if you find this 'stupid' and it just doesn't spark any interest...I shall stop here.

Randomness...OUT!!!

PS. Also, there's a new poll up...make your decision...

A Truthful Lie: Ch 27

Ch 27

A month or so had pass, Leila had written her BAR and was still questioning whether or not she should take the opportunity that Ron had given her, to study and work abroad. The idea of being closer to her son was something that she very much liked, but the thought of not being with Ron was one that was capable of wiping that smile off her face.

Leila wanted to tell him that she was in love with him, and that he wasn’t in love with Tavia...and what he felt for Tavia wasn’t love but was almost like an obsession, a distorted infatuation that was mistaken for love. But she was afraid that if she told him, she’d lose him forever.

Over a month’s time, Ron and Tavia had gone on a few more dates, Ron had given Tavia a few goodbye kisses on the forehead, a few pecks on the cheek, and they locked lips once. They were indeed trying to take it slow, Ron didn’t want to rush their relationship, but rather let it progress at its natural pace.

As Ron drove Tavia home, they were stopped at a red light where they saw a young couple walking down the street, hand in hand, simply in a euphoric state powered by love.

Ron: I remember how I used to love walking you back

Tavia: Ya...I remember that time when you gave me a piggy back ride cause I sprained my ankle

Ron: And your place was up like two hills

Tavia: You could’ve driven

Ron: But I wanted to spend more time with you

Tavia smiled: I know

The light turned green and he continued the drive to her place. Once they got there, Ron parked the car and as Tavia was getting ready to leave...

Ron: Wait

Tavia: What is it?

Ron took a hold of her hand, raised it to his lips and kissed it

Ron: I don’t want to see you leave so soon

Tavia smiled: Then I’ll stay here just a little bit longer

Ron smiled: That would be perfect

After a couple more minutes, Ron had finally let go of her hand, got out of the car, opened the door for Tavia and stood facing her, in front of her place.

Slowly he wrapped his arms around her body and brought her closer towards him as he embraced her under the moonlit sky.

Ron: Do you think that starting over is a silly idea?

Tavia: Why do you say that...?

Ron: Because we’ve been through so much back then...

Tavia: But it wasn’t all good...and we both know that as a fact

Ron: I know...but saying that it didn’t happen is a silly idea. I hurt you, that’s a fact...

Tavia: And I hated you because of that...but I only hated and resented you so much, because that was how much I loved you

Ron: Do you still?

Tavia: I...don’t know...

Ron smiled: That’s ok...I guess we need some more time...

Tavia: Ya...but one thing I do know is that ever since you came back into my life, I’ve had the chance to release all that resentment and all of that bitterness I had built up over the year. I’ve created this barrier around myself to make sure that I won’t ever get hurt again. And now, thanks to you...that barrier, that wall is slowly crumbling down...

Ron: I think I had the responsibility of doing that, since I caused it all...and I’m glad that you’re back in my life. No more, what ifs...but rather...what’s going to happen next...

Tavia gave him a quick peck on the cheek: Goodnight Ron

Ron: Goodnight

He watched her walk inside the building, and entered the elevator. He heaved a sigh, and smiled knowing that things between are indeed getting better. But what he didn’t know was what will happen next. The question of whether or not they were really meant to be continued to linger in his mind as he got back into his car. And whenever he was in such a state of confusion, there was only person to go to...the person who knew soul.

Without truly thinking about it, he drove into the night and ended up in front of Myolie’s place. He knew that she would be home, but wasn’t sure whether or not she’d still be awake. Recklessly, he got out of his car, had a mischievous look on his face as he started to pick a few rocks from around the parking area. After finalizing which window was hers he started to throw the rocks at it, until the light came on.

Myolie opened the curtains and stared down at a smiling Ron who was still throwing rocks at her window. Finally she opened her window...

Myolie: do you have any idea what time it is?

Ron: It’s time for me to come see my best friend?

Myolie shook her head, closed the window and trudged down to see him, who was now standing in the main lobby

Myolie: What if that wasn’t my window?

Ron: I’d defend myself in court? Or pay the fine?

Myolie: Really? That’s your answer? What were you thinking?

Ron: I was thinking that I wanted to talk to someone, next thing I knew I drove to your place. Then I thought about what I used to do as a kid, throwing rocks at your window, and how you’d run all the way down to greet me...so ya...

Myolie: And how old are you now?

Ron smiled: As old as you are...so...are we going to continue this conversation in the lobby, while you’re still wearing your lovely pink polka dotted PJs or...are you going to invite me up to your place?

Myolie had forgotten that she was still in her PJs, and without any make-up on. She glared at Ron, and the two of them took the elevator up to her place.

Myolie: You could’ve called...and I thought you had a date tonight

Ron: I did

Myolie: please don’t tell me you’re here to tell me about your date

Ron: Well...I might be...but...I just...really wanted to see you...

Myolie yawned: Couldn’t you wait till morning?

Ron shook his head: I just had to come now...come here

And with that he wrapped his arms around her and embraced her. There was this level of comfort between them that just made things feel so right when they were together...and Ron just knew that this was what he wanted at the moment.

Myolie: How about, we talk in the morning...I’m really tired right now

Ron: Ok...do you want me to carry you into bed

Myolie looked at him: That’s not such a bad idea

Ron smiled and carried her into her bedroom

Myolie: Your toothbrush is still in the bathroom...and I think I still have your old stuff in the guest room since you never seem to come and get them

Ron: That’s probably because I know that I’ll be spending a few nights here anyways

Myolie: Whatever, goodnight Ron...remember to turn off all the lights

Ron: Goodnight 

He gave her a slight peck on the forehead, pulled the blanket over her, turned off the lights and walked out, closing the door behind him.

================

This is getting exciting as it is nearing the end...I believe I intend there to be about 30 or so chapters. I already hinted to an open ending...and so...I might keep my word with regards to that. Also, I wanted to point out that Take 2 is also nearing the end...thus, that leaves all of us with two fanfics, The Stalker and A Series of Unexpected Events. So...this year, I plan on starting a brand new, approximately 15-20 chapter fanfic in September...like most of my fanfic, the male lead will be Ron...and as for the female lead...I'm contemplating between Myolie and Leila at the moment...so...please leave a comment telling me who'd you prefer

Also, please comment on this chapter...and it will probably be updated in a few weeks' time...I can't guarantee every two weeks...nonetheless...I hope you enjoyed it, and...remember, COMMENT, COMMENT AND COMMENT!!!

Randomness...OUT!!!

Take 2: Ch 22

Ch 22

Yes, I do have the worse hiatuses...but...it’s really because I’m an indecisive person who never seems to be able to finish things. And then when the end slowly approaches, I find myself avoiding it...

But...here it is!

==================

Sitting there waiting for an immediate reply seemed to be a foolish idea, but maybe Ron was a fool. He sat there hoping that she would reply as soon as possible, maybe in a long email like he had written her. He hoped for a day when she would accept again, as a friend but deep down he knew that he still wanted to be more than just her friend. At the same time, he also knew that if he kept on pushing her to accept him, he’ll just be pushing her further and further away. But what was a man like him to do, in a situation like this. Moving on...was just too difficult.

But the time he spent waiting was futile, for she didn’t reply at all. So all hopes were once again gone, and he only wished that they would be renewed the following day. But at least, he got some studying done.

The following day, he woke up to the sound of his alarm and quickly ran to his laptop to check whether or not she had replied. Once again, there was no such luck of a reply.

He knew it would take her a while, and he realized maybe this was a good opportunity to collect himself. Maybe it was a good opportunity for him to practice, practice what he would say to her or make plans for what they were going to do. Yes, this was an opportunity.

~ University grounds~

The weather was pretty nice out, just a few clouds floating in a lovely blue sky with the sun out. Fresh air, and sunlight...that was probably what we wanted more than the stench of the glue used for the binding of old books found in the library. He had his earbuds in his ears listening away to his favourite band under the sunlight, with his eyes barely open until he found himself covered by this shadow. He looked up to see her standing meters in front of him, and immediately sat up and pulled out his earbuds.

Ron: You’re covering my sunlight

Linda: I’m trying to prevent you from getting skin answer, the least you should do is thank me

Ron smiled: Thank you

Linda: Now that’s more like it (She walked over and sat down next to him)

Ron: Shouldn’t you be in the library?

Linda: Shouldn’t you be studying?

Ron: I wanted some peace and quiet along with fresh air and sunlight

Linda: Me too

Ron: Oh

Linda: So...any progress

Ron: I haven’t exactly started studying...

Linda: No...I meant between you and that girl or did you talk to Leila?

Ron: I emailed her last night...

Linda: That girl?

Ron: No, Leila

Linda: Oh...well, good luck getting a reply

Ron chuckled: You know I can’t talk to her over the phone...it probably would waste her minutes and mine considering it’ll be a complete silence

Linda: I guess that’s true...well (She placed her hand on his shoulder) at least you made some progress

Ron nodded: I guess...

Linda: So, what did your email say?

Ron looked at her: I never took you for the nosy type

Linda: Well, if you don’t want to tell me...I guess it’s really none of my business (She slowly got up)

Ron: Wait (He took a hold of her hand as she was about to get up)

This was probably the first time he initiated any physical contact...it was probably the most bizarre thing but for some reason the moment he found his hand touching hers there seemed to have been this rush of euphoria.

Linda: You want me to stay?

Ron nodded, and let go of her hand...

Linda: So then...tell me

Ron: Umm...I just told her I wanted to be friends again, and how I was sorry I kind of blew up in front of her and how I’m kind of scared being around her

Linda laughed: Well, she’s not going to eat you

Ron: Oh, thanks I didn’t know that

Linda: Is that all?

Ron: And I asked if she’d like to go for another walk...

Linda: I see...Ron, tell me...did you always wanted a dog when you were younger?

Ron: What?

Linda: A dog...you know, four-legged furry or hairy creature that barks and...

Ron: I know what a dog is...but I don’t understand why you’re asking

Linda: You always like asking her for a walk...so...you know...I just put 2 and 2 together...

Ron chuckled: What an interesting observation...but...I do have a dog

Linda: Well, I guess I was on the right track

Ron: Or maybe, you’re completely off and it’s just a mere coincidence...and besides, I like walks cause usually they’re rather quiet so we could talk. But, hopefully she agrees to it.

Linda: I hope it’ll work out for the two of you

Ron: Me too...it’ll be nice having her back, so we three could hang out some time

Linda: So you’re saying you’re tired of seeing only me all the time

Ron: Oh no, I don’t think I can ever get tired of seeing you...you really make my day

Linda: That’s really sweet (She gave him a hug)

Ron: Thanks for the hug

Linda smiled: You know, they’re not free

Ron looked at her: What?

Linda: You owe me...some study time

=======================

I think I've finally figured out what I'd like to do with this fanfic, as well as how I'd like it to end...so...I guess I'll be updating it...once every two weeks or so.

Anyways, please leave a comment...and if you're a reader of my other fanfics...I'd also like to tell you that you should check back here tomorrow...because I will most likely be updating A Truthful Lie.
