JAYSON'S POV (Continued)
I quickly move away from there, and by the time I take my eyes to where I saw Cherry last, i can't find her anymore.
I sigh and move to the wine area, picking up some expensive ones and moving to the cutlery area located close to the wine area, I pick some really expensive mugs, wine glasses and carefully put them in my trolley to avoid them from breaking.
I'm about leaving the area, but turning left I collide with someone moving straight towards me, and if not for my strong composure, I would have fallen.
Looking at the person who I mistakenly bumped into, I'm shocked to see that I'm staring straight at Cherry Collins, my first love.
********
She stares at me for a while, then she looks away and reverses her trolley so fast to a different direction.
I jerk and follow her immediately, "Cherry, Cherry please wait, we need to talk, I want to talk to you." I say as I walk behind her but she continues walking and keeps selecting things from the shelves angrily, without even looking at them.
"Cherry, please calm down, give me a chance to speak, listen to what I have to say at least." I say, but she keeps ignoring me and continue walking.
"Please just listen to me." I say as she finally pauses and looks at me.
"What is it? What do you want to say again?" She replies coldly not even sparing me a glance.
"Cherry please, I beg you, I know I hurt you so badly, but please...." I pause going on my knees in public, and she doesn't even bat an eyelash.
"Please Cherry, forgive me and give me a time specially to explain everything to you." I keep on talking, bending my head feeling bittered and for a while, I don't hear a word from her and I decide to raise my head up and I can't find her around.
Oh my God, she just left me alone. I stand up and looking around, I check if I can see her anywhere but I find out that she has already left me. I sigh and taking my trolley, I walk away.

CHERRY'S POV
When I saw Jayson kneel in front of me earlier on, it really broke my heart.
I could not even stand the fact that he was asking for my forgiveness, I didn't even know what to say, and I just had to leave.
Immediately I took my things, while he was still kneeling without him knowing, paid for the things I bought, and left.
I could not take it anymore. I'm going to cry, I can already feel it, I walk to a hidden street bench at the corner to avoid being seen, and sit down.
Putting the things I bought down, I cover my face with my palm. I weep bitterly, I am so hurt to the bone.
I sniff and bring out my napkin and wipe my face.
Already tired, I'm already weak and don't think I can walk again, calling Mark, I tell him my location and tell him to come pick me up.
Some minutes later, he comes shortly with the car, I enter the car and he drives me home.
*********
I lay on my bed.
It's evening already, and I can't wait to leave this city.
Hopefully I would be going back to pack my clothes, making sure I don't leave anything behind.
When I'm done, I go into the shower and take my bath.
Creaming my body with my lotion, I wear my white pants and blazers, bring out my shades, and minimizing my accessories, I look at myself in the mirror, pick up my bag and head downstairs.
Rolling my luggages downstairs, the hotel porter helps me with the luggages, I go outside and see Mark already waiting for me, I get in the car and we leave for the airport.
This is what I need to do. Leave once and for all!!!
