15 "I will be always...the first one!"

Noah's POV-

So, I was basically leading a dreamy life in my high school. But the sad part of the dream was that the validity was only for 6 months! That was our little secret! I even basically announced my relationship with Luna in school & Baek almost got a heartattack! Lyn was so shocked that he didn't come to school for 7 days!

All the girls were extremely sad after losing me! Well that's what you can expect from a popular guy's crazy fan following!

I was proudly boasting my love life everywhere! And Luna kept her promise too! Neither she objected anything, nor she admitted! All she could do was glaring at me while I was enjoying this happy atmosphere!

Everyday we used to have lunch together in the bench near the cherry trees. It was a paradise for me! I used to act all lovey dovey in front of others to make them believe that we are actually dating! Luna always gave me cold shoulder or irritated expression but I was satisfied with that. Atleast she doesn't shove me away from her!

"Hey! You are acting too cheesy with me nowadays!", she complained to me one day while we were having lunch.

"Why honey?", I tried to act cute in front of her.

She gave me a death stare with an extremely frustrated expression, " hey? do you want to die?Don't even try to act like all cheesy when we are alone!"

I got chills in my spine from her death stare.

"Ahh, I was just kidding! I know my limits dear Luna!", I was covering up for my unnecessary cheesiness and trying to save my life from her rage.

She sighed while looking at the sky, "ahhh God! Why did I get entangled in all this? Why did I ever transfer here! I am getting tired of everything already!"

Somehow my heart started aching! While acting all lovey dovey I actually forgot that we are just acting! This was just my deliberate attempt to stay by her side & to protect her from other approaches. And the validity of our acting will be over soon!

My face darkened. With a sad look I asked her, "w-will you ever miss me?"

She looked at me intensely. She however understood my feelings, that my eyes were portraying.

"Yes. When I will live in peace, I will eventually remember a bug used to annoy me so much!", I understood Luna was trying to lift up my mood.

I smiled a bit, "even if you remember me as a bug, it's enough for me."

"Gosh you are too cheesy! You are talking like a sad kdrama lead!", she said while staring at me.

"Yeah! Maybe that's why it's my sad love story", I replied gently.

"Do you want to taste my food? I-I don't share my food with anyone! But as you are sad so I can allow you to taste a bit! Here, go ahead!", she gently smiled at me while handing her lunch box to me.

"Th-Thank you!", I smiled with my sad eyes.

Eventually like everything comes to an end, my happy high school life came to an end too. It was our graduation ceremony. All the students were extremely happy after getting their degrees, however most of our parents couldn't attend the ceremony as they were always too busy!

I wasn't happy at all. My heart was aching terribly from the morning. I think, that's what we call the fear of separation!

I didn't want to face Luna, I knew this was the last day of high school as well as our contractual dating! But still I wanted to run away from the reality..

"Mr. Han!", A voice called me from behind.

I reluctantly looked back, and it was Luna. With a bunch of roses holding from her graduation ceremony she smiled at me like a divine angel.

I stood there frozen. She slowly came towards me.

"Were you running away without greeting me?", she asked me.

"N-No!", I answered coldly.

"I just want to say something to you, since it's the last day here", she said politely.

"La-later! I have some work to do today! I think we should just leave today!", I tried to escape the situation. I didn't want to hear what's she was going to say!

"You have been always kind to me! And you are the first person with whom I have opened my heart a bit! You have always tried to make me happy! I have been unnecessarily rude to you many times! Still you never left my side! Thank you!", she was smiling gently.

"Hey! Why does it seems that you are saying goodbye?", I asked her coldly.

She was silent for sometime. "I even went to a festival for the first time with you! I saw fireworks in such a beautiful view for the first time! With you I have experienced many things I never thought to live! I have always said you that I don't make friends, but you are someone who made me smile from my heart for the first time!", she had a sad smile while saying.

"Fuck! I am about to cry! Come on Noah! Men shouldn't cry!", I tried to console myself.

"Are you in verge of tears?", she asked me sharply.

"Me? Huh? Why I would cry? Men shouldn't cry!", I tried to act strong.

"It's fine! It's not a taboo for men! You can cry if you are hurt! But make yourself so strong that nothing could make you cry again! Built a cold-armour around you heart too!", she said while gently patting my head.

I couldn't hold myself any longer. Tears started rolling down, it was too painful for me to let her go! But I knew eventually this day will come..

"W-wont I be able to see you again?", I was sobbing bitterly.

She silently smiled at me with teary eyes, "if our destiny brings us together- we will surely meet again someday!"

I was trying hard not to make an eye contact with her. I was actually embarrassed to let her see this weak side of mine...

"I wish you a good life! You taught me many things! You taught me how to open up to people! You...made my high school life more joyful!

Thank you.....Noah!", she said softly.

It was the first time she called me with my name! I didn't expect to hear that while parting our ways!

"I will leave now! Goodbye!", she smiled to me & started walking slowly towards her car.

I stood behind and watched her leaving....

My vision was blurry, as my eyes were filled with tears. Somehow, a terrible pain teared apart my heart. All I could do was letting her go...

Baek quietly came and stood beside me while patting my shoulder, I understood he was even more sad to see my miserable condition like this...

When she left, I looked up at the sky with rolling tears, "I...I am happy with the fact, that I will be always the first one to make her smile....to break her cold barrier.....to fall in love with her....and to have my heart broken by her.....

I will be always the first one....", I silently uttered.

~12 years passed by, I, eventually lost the hope to see her again! But I saw her in my dreams many times, but the dreams were very weird!! In these years, I have dated only 3 girls after her, and all of them were named Luna...Maybe I was silently searching the Luna I lost a long ago within them...

Sadly, none of my relationships worked out. My mom passed away too..I was left all alone in this world with a broken heart while fulfilling the duties of a company owner.

But that day, while sitting in the cafe, I saw her again! After 12 years! She was sitting with someone else but the expression in her eyes was very different to that she had for me in the school life. She never looked at me with so much emotions...

I was extremely frustrated. I went to her table shamelessly when they were in the middle of talking something..but I just couldn't bear it...

~ After 12 years, I am going to meet her properly in her cafe. She doesn't even know how much I have waited to see her again! I know, I am nothing more than a well wisher for her, she didn't even consider me as her friend! But for me, she was someone I dreamt to stay beside my whole life...

My first sad love....
