Miss Time Novels & Stories

Only once did Manang soften like that so I got up from my seat and took my bag from the table to come out. "Are you coming home, ma'am?" Amber asked when she saw me walking towards the exit door. I stopped walking and looked at her direction. "Yeah, why?" She slightly bowed her head and looked in a different direction to avoid eye contact. Do I look intimidating! "Ammm you’re meeting with Mr. Aguilar will start 30 minutes from—" "Cancel it." “Hmm I don’t think we can do that, Ma’am. It's only 30 minutes and s-start— ”

It was as if time had paused, as if that could be our last moment together. A sob escaped him, the sound of his pain echoing through the silent camp. "Promise me, if we meet again, even if it's in the next lifetime, promise me you'll find me." I fought back my own sobs, my chest tightening with emotions too complex to express. "I—" "Move!" The Miss's voice interrupted, sharp and menacing. "Move, or I will kill both of you!" The urgency in her voice jolted me back to reality. Killan's embrace loosened, and he moved away from me, leaving a gap that felt like an abyss. We locked eyes once more, a silent exchange of emotions that words couldn't encapsulate.

I imagined it would be a surreal experience, jyst the two of us, gliding through time and living each other's company, but even I had to admit that that ship had already sailed for us already, but that didn't mean we couldn't still talk on the phone. I missed him like crazy but time zones as well as our contrasting schedules were ruining everything. Like on some days, he'd be free and ready to talk but i'd just be returning from work, exhausted and ready to just fall asleep as soon as my head hits the pillow. Or for instance, I would be free and ready to talk but He'd just be waking up and preparing for work.

She chuckles, telling me to enjoy before walking away to attend to other guests. I drink my milkshake happily, basking in the positive mood I'm currently experiencing. It's not long that my cellphone rings and disturbs my moment. " Hello." " Hello, Is this Miss Grey?" " Yes, this is she?" " My name is Michael and I'm calling on behalf of the Sattfire Restaurant mam, I believe that you had come by today for an interview, regarding the Hostess position." I sit up straight when I hear the name of the restuarant.

I added, giving series of mirthless laughs. "Why don't you save your relationship?" she asked. I pivoted my feet and looked at her. "I no longer chase anything or anyone, Mae. I do not have the energy to chase for what is not for me," I mumbled. "Life too short to run miles for people who don't take steps for me." "Y-Yeah," she said, nodding. "It can be difficult to see the good in this situation but well make sense if it when we can," she added as she removed her mascara in her cheeks using her makeup removal.

24 hours prior…. Adrian POV Missy’s face as her tears spilled over tore at me the whole way while driving to the bank. I wish I had time to stay and make things better, to kiss away her worries and reassure her that she was the only woman that could ever have my heart, but I can’t let my daughter down. After tomorrow, I will do whatever I can to make this up to her. I believe in us. I believe that we can overcome this.

She'll forget everything after hearing my voice. It's not reachable. My smile vanishes as I discover the time. 12:02. I missed it. And why is her number unavailable? Maybe, network issue. Should I call auntie? No! Can't disturb her all the time. I'm already late to wish her. So, there's no point to bother anyone. I keep calling her but the result is the same.

Me: I just don’t, maybe you aren’t trust worthy. Timi: How can I gain your trust? Me: I don’t know, but you just might. Timi: How about we go somewhere for the rest of the holiday season. Me: Don’t push it. Timi: A man has to try right? Me: A man can try, but not this girl. Timi: I have missed you. Me: Says someone who disappeared for almost three weeks and just showed up today. Timi: I was giving you space and again, I am sorry.

"I'm gonna get a new phone before I come back. I miss you so much sis." "I miss you more honey bunch. GTG, my class starts in twenty minutes." Draya pressed the send button again and kept her phone aside. She missed her best friend every single day despite the fact that they sent messages to each other everyday. Well, that's what Draya thought. This was the similar case with Kenny. He always received messages from 'Avatia' every single day and they would chat for long. But face timing was never possible. The person who had Avatia's phone was that smart. ***

But suddenly she remembered yesterday. Selena smiling. Saying— I missed you. Marisa locked the phone again. No. Work first. She opened documents. Her eyes moved through the schedule. Her chest slowly tightened. Then she stopped. Looked at another document. A different date. Different room. Different preparation schedule. Her eyes stayed there. For a few seconds. Then— very slowly— she copied the wrong one. Not dangerous. Not enough to ruin anything. Just inaccurate. Enough to protect the real meeting.
