Chapter 126: Winning her back
Caleb's POV
The rain fell heavily on me as I was weak, my body barely moving. I wish to die, she never deserve me.
Everything faded before me and sadness enveloped me.
Never have I imagined I'd be this way, remorseful and shattered because of a woman.
I was crazy.
Is this how love feels? I couldn't breath either as I shivered under the cold, heartbroken and too stunned to do anything properly.
My heart skipped as I exhaled deeply, sitting at the bridge, the same one we met for the first time in 5 months and I'd never get to see her.
I rake my hair, cussed myself and grew more weak. She must have been traumatized by me and I just couldn't tell why I didn't realize it.
Amaris wasn't like the other women who I treat like trash and still wants me. She was right, I was a monster.
I coil myself where I sat, broken and devastated. She really meant it when she said it's over.
I meant well this time, to make it up but it turns out I'd never get her but I won't still give up on her.
There was no one here, I was paralyzed, too shock to move or make a call. The ring she had ditched in my hand still remains.
I won't lose it because I know, I'd get her back. While I sat there, I suddenly felt an umbrella over my head.
The horrible stroke of the rain wasn't hitting me anymore, rather I was basked in a shield.
Slowly, I lifted my head to see who it was. My heart skipped as I fluttered those lashes at who I saw.
Her worried face, her shivering eyes and when she stretched her hand for me to grab on.
Time stopped and having nothing to say or do, I collapsed.

My body felt warm as something fluffy and heavy was on me. I squint my eyes, letting out a yawn and stretching my hands.
Anxiously, I spur my eyes open and realized I was laying on a large couch that could fit for a mini bed.
My ears heard the clicking sound of spoon in or on a cup, the humping sound of a refrigerator.
The room seems to shrink me in as I inhaled softly.
My nose was hot with a vanilla fragrance and soft music began to play. I rubbed my eyes to send clearly for myself where I was.
That's because it doesn't feel like home.
"You finally woke up" her voice came in, which was replaced by her footsteps.
I curiously wanted to send her and she appeared in front of me, with a short and t-shirt while pointing a mug of coffee at my face.
Unfortunately, she didn't turn out be the person I desperate needed.
It was Kiara, gesturing to me that the drink wasn't poisoned and so I should drink it and get better.
I scoffed and took it from her while rising up from the couch with a forlorn gaze as the memories from last night hurts and I could develop a heart ache any
moment son due to the words amaris said to me.
It was heartbreaking that I felt like dying.
"Drink up Caleb" she scolded, taking a chair to sit opposite me.
"What happened?" I questioned before taking a sip and I remembered amaris.
She brews a perfect coffee and the few months we spent together was heavenly to me.
"You collapsed and I brought you over here, it's the closest place to the spot where you were laying" she narrates and I just rubbed my forehead, feeling
headache and weak.
"Have you been stalking me?" I mused taking another sip of coffee and exhaling the sweet narcotic scent it was sizzling out from the mug.
"It's coincidental" she defended although her eyes avoided me which proves she followed me which was bizzare.
I licked my lower lip and dropped the mug of coffee, having no idea if to ask her such question as winning a woman's heart.
I needed amaris, she's mine and i'd make up for this pains if she'd just give me a chance.
"Let me guess, you were over there for amaris" she began, curiosity etch on her face and I couldn't still phantom why she wanted me to find amaris.
I found amaris and lost her at the same time and bringing her back seems to be the hardest job ever.
"Just don't talk about her" i snapped rubbing my eyes and intending to rise but I fell back on the couch, feeling nausea and worn-out.
"And I guess she said no right?"
I gave her a glare as her assumptions alone proves that she was certainly there when amaris came in.
I don't want to lose amaris.
"Life goes on Caleb" she advised and I scoffed. I was tired of that phrase all the time. My life can't go on with amaris in it.
I just realized the feeling I had been bottling for a while was love and I should have treated her nicely.
Why was I realizing now.
"Don't say that to me Kiara" I mused feeling sweaty and wanting to return home, to think of a way to win her over.
Despite the phrase she spoke about having a daughter together. That was a good idea, she'd carry my children and we'd love them together with care and
humanity.
They'd never be me and I'd marry her properly, help her out and...
"What are you doing?" Kiara suddenly asked interrupting my thoughts. I realized I was placing my palms on my chest and smiling like I was in some kind of trance.
It must have freaked Kiara out for her to ask me.
"Kiara?" I called nervous and facing her properly.
She shoved her gaze at me, ducked her head and stared with probing eyes.
"How do I win over a woman?"
