A Hint of Misunderstanding

[JADE]

"Un croissant avec un cappuccino, s-il vous plaît." I smiled at the girl who was working in the cafe, about to serve me my croissant and Cappuccino. She smiled back before giving me my order. I went to sit at a table at the back after paying her.

4 years. It's been 4 years since i left and did not bother contacting my friends. The only person i have been in touched with is my father who is still married to Irina, much to my dislike. I still haven't told him about Blake's death. All he knows is that Blake and i are living our best lives in France.

Sighing, i turn to look outside the window where several people were walking, talking with each other happily. The atmosphere in France was amazing to say the least- People are so friendly here and i was actually happy with my life but unfortunately my happiness was short lived when I received a phone call from my dad, demanding my presence back home. Thankfully, I managed to convince him to let imaginary Blake stay here.

Taking a sip of my coffee after eating the croissant, i gave the girl one last smile before walking out the door, knowing this is my last day here. As i was walking in the direction of the parking which much to my dislike was behind an alley, i could not help but feel as if someone was following me and i knew, i couldn't be wrong. Someone for sure was following me.

I turned in the opposite direction i was walking to and hid in a corner, waiting for my stalker to pass by. It did not take long before he did, I grabbed him by his arm, twisting it behind his back before pushing him against the wall. "Why are you following me?"

"I mean no harm-" He started, "Your father only wanted to make sure you're safe and wanted to remind you that you have a flight tonight."

"I told him i understood, didn't i?" I released the man, not detecting any trace of lies in his tone or features.
