Chapter 18: Chapter 18

Aaron Samuel

The great Dean Samuel just passed away.

The person who built Samuel Corp. died. He built it from a scratch and he’s a really great role model. From small company to one of the biggest company in the world. A great person who always took care of his family.

I still can’t believe that he died.

The surgery was a success but as he recovered, he became weak. He talked to us for awhile and then his heart monitor showed a straight line. We all shocked and the doctor quickly came and tried to bring him back but God wanted him to go back to where he belongs.

My grandma cried so hard, she wasn’t ready for him to leave her alone in this world.

My heart broke, he was a person that always be by your side, a grandpa that always tells us weird jokes and spoils his grandchilds. I missed him.

I broke down at the corner of the room, I still can’t accept the fact that he’s gone. Seeing his heart monitor showing a straight line made me speechless. I screamed my lungs out hoping that he can comeback.

Now, it’s been 4 hours since he died. We all still can’t accept this. Everyone was crying, breaking down and comforting each other.

I walked out from the room and saw Jessica Mallow, her family was quite close to ours. Her grandfather was my grandpa’s bestfriend so our families were pretty close.

She came to me and hugged me.

I hugged her back because I really need this. Even though her hug was not as comforting as Sophia’s but I really need someone to comfort me right now. Where is she? She sad she will comeback. Suddenly Jessica held my hand and lead me to the lift.

“Let’s get some fresh are for awhile.” She said and I nodded. She pulled me to the hospital’s garden at the back. I breathed deeply and Jessica pulled me into a hug again.

I sneaked my arms to her waist hugging her back, she suddenly put her lips to mine kissing me slowly. I kissed her back and suddenly it got heated and we started kissing each other with passion.

She ran her hands through my hair, but my mind suddenly remembered the girl who comforted me a few hours earlier. She just hugged me silently and gave me a small kiss but why was it is more comforting than this girl who was kissing me hard and passionately? Jessica was just.. plain.

She cupped my face and kissed me more but my heart felt this is so wrong. She’s not Sophia, I didn’t feel the excitement. The sensation was not there and I needed the person who can give me that.

Where is she?

I pushed Jessica and left her there.

“Aaron!”

“Get lost bitch!” I said coldly.

“Aaron!” She called me again but I ignored her. I walked inside to the hospital again.

Why did I kiss her? I looked at the time, it’s 9:12pm and Sophia still not here. Did something happen to her?

“Aaron, we have take care everything.” Blake called me. I went to him and took care a few documents about my grandpa.

“Aaron.” Suddenly someone called me, I saw my friends came and I can’t help but smile even if it’s just a small smile but at least someone who knows me well was here.

“Hey.” Sebastian hugged me briefly.

“Sorry for the loss man.” Ken patted me and the others hugged me briefly.

“Blake, when will we bury him?” I asked as he walked pass by with his wife, Jean.

“Tomorrow, grandma said it’s his words.” I nodded.

We all went up to my grandpa’s room to find my grandma still crying so hard. I walked to her and hugged her tightly.

“He’s not gone yet.. He’s still here.” She cried. I controlled my emotions to stay calm, if I cried too, it will make her cry more.

The next day, we buried him. We all still can’t believe that he’s gone. We all went to his house and just sat there, missing every single piece of him. The memories of us talking still fresh in my mind.

I walked out to the garden and tried to call Sophia. I got nothing, her phone can’t be reach. I was pissed, where is she? Sad and anger came all over me making me snapped at everyone at the office.

What’s wrong with me?
