Chapter 165
\nThree Years Later, He Came Back Begging novel Chapter 165<\/p>\n
Her arms and legs were long and graceful, every move she made carried this quiet strength, almost like a swan gliding across the water. When Bonnie was a kid, she\u2019d tried out dance classes. It was just a hobby, nothing serious, and after a couple years, school took over. She never had the knack for it anyway.<\/p>\n
Back then, when someone complimented Hannah, Lawrence would always beam. \u201cOf course she\u2019s good. And she works hard, too. Next time she has a show, I\u2019ll take you,\u201d he\u2019d say, almost proud. Bonnie never imagined the three of them would end up like this.<\/p>\n
She was about to leave when another girl stopped next to her. \u201cHey, are you a fan of Hannah, too? Did you get tickets? This comeback is wild, the prices from scalpers are insane and I still missed out…\u201d The girl trailed off as Bonnie shook her head and walked off without another word.<\/p>\n
Once she got on the subway, Bonnie opened her social media. Maybe it was because she\u2019d searched Hannah\u2019s name before, or maybe that fan was right and the hype really was everywhere. Either way, Hannah\u2019s new update was at the top of her feed. She clicked in. There was a glitzy poster, some rehearsal shots\u2014her feed buzzing.<\/p>\n
In the comments, people were excited. Bonnie spotted a reply from Hannah herself: After the show, I\u2019ll have some good news for everyone. She didn\u2019t care what that meant, so she scrolled on. None of the comments touched on Hannah\u2019s personal life, just lots of love and good vibes. Bonnie backed out.<\/p>\n
Every time she refreshed, posts about the performance popped up. With a sigh, Bonnie closed the app, just as a message popped up from Helen\u2014she\u2019d sent a photo snapped at the mall of Hannah\u2019s event poster.<\/p>\n
Look what I found. She\u2019s dancing ballet and publicizing it everywhere, as if we\u2019d forget she can do this stuff.<\/p>\n
We walked past her posters all the way from dinner to the movie. She\u2019s even trending online. Bet she spent tons to buy all this hype.<\/p>\n
Well, I guess that\u2019s what happens when you\u2019re not famous anymore.<\/p>\n
Bonnie read the texts and could see exactly how Helen would roll her eyes. She replied, I\u2019m not interested in her. Are you free tomorrow? I want to go shopping.<\/p>\n
The ember burned down to his skin. He looked up at the winter sky, the moon glowing white, Orion clear above the rooftops. It brought him back to that night when he and Bonnie had watched a meteor shower together.<\/p>\n
That night, Bonnie had asked what he\u2019d wished for. Lawrence said he wished she\u2019d never leave him.<\/p>\n
Bonnie had hugged him, her arms around his neck as she kissed him, laughing softly. \u201cI don\u2019t need Pollux or Castor\u2019s approval. I get to decide this stuff myself.\u201d Then she kissed him again, shy but totally bold, her promise caught between their lips.<\/p>\n
While she gasped for breath, she whispered she\u2019d stay with him, always, that she\u2019d be his kite and he\u2019d be her wind. They\u2019d be together, forever.<\/p>\n
Lawrence rubbed out the last bit of his cigarette. His eyes stung. He wasn\u2019t sure who he could ask, who he could beg, who even had the answer for whether a promise like that could ever really last.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-833","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/833","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/kampoengnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=833"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
