Aimee

Aimee was not just bored but also worried. She never went inside that diner again since that day, but occasionally, she had Gary park a few blocks away from it while she watched the entrance. Sometimes, she was lucky enough to catch a glimpse of Jayden when he brought out customers' orders for the delivery riders, but most times, she would just stare at the entrance, watching different customers come and go while Jayden never showed up.

Her friends had invited her to the city right before

  • Aimee & Jayden: The Space Between Us   Fifty two

    JaydenJayden had fallen asleep as soon as he fell onto the bed after taking a shower that night. He had actually thought he was going to spend the night going through everything that had happened at the festival, his confession and his possible relationship with Aimee, but he never knew he was so tired that he would fall asleep almost instantly.When he woke up in the morning, he felt feverish and wondered if he was coming down with something, but it had been so long since he got sick that he didn’t even have any go-to medication anymore. The last time he had gotten really sick was a week after his mother abandoned them, and that was already six years ago. Since then, he had only ever dealt with headaches or maybe a little cold, which a day or half a day of rest and aspirin usually fixed.So, he didn’t feel bothered and decided to get some aspirin on his way to work since he didn’t have any at home anymore. As he tried to carry on with his daily routine, however, he noticed that his

    AimeeAimee had found it hard to sleep last night. She kept replaying Jayden’s face with the fireworks behind him as he confessed his feelings to her. She would hug her pillow and squeal, kicking her legs in the air, then cover her flushed face and repeat everything all over again. She couldn’t find a comfortable spot to lie on her bed and kept turning and tossing around until the first break of dawn.Seeing the rising sun and knowing she would get to see Jayden again in the afternoon to confirm that they were truly dating now, she suppressed the excitement in her heart and forced herself to catch a few hours of sleep so that she wouldn’t be meeting her boyfriend with eyebags.Although Aimee said that, she still woke up after only a few hours of sleep, and no matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t go back to sleep, so she decided to find something to do to pass the time. But then again, time was sluggish, and even when she felt like at least an hour should have passed, it would end u

  • Aimee & Jayden: The Space Between Us   Chapter fifty

    JaydenHe did it!He actually did it. Wait, what does this mean? Is he dating Aimee now? Is she like...his girlfriend?Jayden’s face heated up immediately, and he was glad that there weren’t many people in the train, otherwise, how could he calmly sit while they watched him blush so badly?He glanced at the girl sitting beside him, her hands clasped on her bag and her hat tucked under her armpit. None of them had said anything since they got inside the train, and frankly, Jayden didn’t know what to say.Somehow, Aimee didn’t hold his past mistakes against him. He could still remember the way the fireworks reflected on her face, how a tear had run down her cheek after hearing his confession, and the panic that gripped him at that moment, thinking she was going to tell him it was already too late.But instead, Aimee closed the distance between them with slow steps and placed her head against his chest. Even thinking about it now, Jayden still stiffened just as he had back then. He never

  • Aimee & Jayden: The Space Between Us   Chapter forty nine

    AimeeAimee couldn’t get the image of Jayden laughing out of her mind. It was something she had often imagined but never truly believed she would witness today. When those women mistook them for a couple, part of the reason she had been so embarrassed was that she had been worried that Jayden would immediately correct them, leaving her too ashamed to even face those women again.But not only had he not corrected them, not only had he become just as embarrassed by their teasing as she had, not only had he grabbed her hand and run out of the café with her, but he had actually laughed along with her.She closed her eyes, and the scene replayed vividly in her mind once more. She had really witnessed something she never thought possible.Jayden...laughing.It wasn’t the small smile he had gifted her after the 100m race, nor the tiny smile that had appeared on his face during the school festival as she dragged him from one stall to another.Jayden had been laughing.A full, genuine laugh, w

  • Aimee & Jayden: The Space Between Us   Forty eight

    JaydenJayden had been shocked when he saw that Aimee had arrived earlier than he anticipated, and suddenly, every word he had practiced saying disappeared from his mind. But it wasn’t because she was early. Rather, it was because she had arrived looking even more beautiful than he had expected. Her gown looked so gentle and elegant on her, and watching her walk toward him beneath the warm summer sun, it felt as though spring had finally melted away the winter that had shrouded his life for so long.He was struck speechless. He wanted to say something, anything, but didn’t know exactly what.As they walked together, he was glad she was wearing a hat. The sun was still hot, but thankfully it was already beginning to set, so it would only be a matter of time before the heat eased. Different words remained stuck at the back of his throat, but none of them would come out. Instead, he kept stealing glances at the girl beside him.She looked beautiful. So beautiful that he wanted to tell he

    AimeeAimee stared at the time on her phone screen. It was five minutes to five, and the train would be arriving at the station in exactly five minutes. Which meant she was an hour early to Jayden’s six PM time.She still couldn’t believe it. When she had received that message on her way to the car that night with her friends, she had believed she had misread it, and had simply shoved the phone back into her bag. Throughout their stay at the karaoke bar, she couldn’t shift her mind from it, couldn’t concentrate on anything else.She would often bring out her phone to read the message again. No matter how many times she read it, she still couldn’t believe it. Even as she said goodbye to her friends when they dropped her at home. Even as she smiled and waved at Zack before answering him vaguely when he asked if she would be free tomorrow for them to meet up. She was still thinking about the message left on read in her phone.Even as she walked up to her room, even as she showered, even

    AimeeThe school was quieter in the morning.Not the kind of quiet that felt empty, but the kind that hadn’t decided what it was yet. Like the building was still half asleep, waiting for voices to give it shape.Aimee stepped through the entrance slowly, her shoes making a soft sound against the po
