No Given Space

People seldom say I love you. and when they do its either too late or the love is gone. but when I say I love you, it doesn't mean you have to stay but I wish you'll never go away.-Anonymous

The panic at his stomach started to rise through his throat. Seeing Barbie’s emotional outburst because of his sudden comeback in her almost “moving on” life, he had no idea whether he would still stand a chance and heck Barbie’s reaction stabbed his already pained soul. If only he knew it wouldn’t last forever, if only he knew it, he should have savoured each and every moment with her, he should have hugged her tighter than he did and he should have kissed her longer than what he used to do.

“Zai, have you heard about Barbie’s series with Peter Ho?” Vanness asked his daydreaming brother

Gaining no reaction at all, he tried to wave his hand in front of him to wake him up from whatever kind of thoughts were playing through his head.

“Zhou Yu Min!” His voice almost startled the diners in the place.

“Huh?”Confusion evident in his voice

“You’re spacing out..What’s wrong with you?”He asked curiously

“Huh..What’s wrong with me?” The serious look on his face when he pointed to himself made him look like total fool

Damned Hell. The most handsome man in Taiwan has some kind of love difficulties. Quite unbelievable, right? His upcoming drama is the most anticipated this year. His career is currently at its peak. Honestly, people think that he had no right to be unhappy.

“Zai, stardom has its perks but I suggest you stick to that something that makes your life worth living..”

Vic looks at him intently as if trying to absorb his advice. He was right. Fans, Dramas, Events, Fame, Career. For the past 8 years of his life, he knew nothing but to delight his fans, to act in front of the camera and perform much to every woman’s liking. When Barbie came to his life, he learned how to balance everything, to give himself a moment to be genuinely happy. But how about now? Barbie wanted to start over with Alan. What about him? Will he ever be happy again? What about true love?..

“Seeing her hating me like this hurts me to the guts..I can’t breathe anymore..” He confessed

“Try harder, Zai..” Wanting to encourage the man

“I guess I really have to give her space..” He sighed deeply

“Space?!.. If you love her, don’t give her space!!..He might fall for someone else while you’re away making a fool out of yourself because your stupidity made you think that what she needed was this freaking space!!..” He said it with so much fervor that made ZaiZai even more thankful for having him as his brother

He suddenly stood up from his feet feeling ever more hopeful than he was before. He quickly made his way to the door after his brother’s litany of “space”

“Hey! Where are you going?..” Vanness shouted

“I have to fill up my long lost space by her side!” He answered wittily and his boyish grin returning the color on his face

“Cancel all my events and schedules for the week..I have something important to retrieve..” He hanged up as quickly as he called without even listening to his manager’s scolding

ZaiZai practically ran to reach his car as if chasing for dear life. He quickly grabbed the pink glittery notebook which served as his emblem of hope and read “Stars in the Sky”

“I’m about to woo you until you can’t even remember Alan Luo’s name..” He silently promised himself
