LAST GOODBYE
CHAPTER TWO
❝THERE'S ONE STAR AND ONE OF YOU, THAT'S MY MEMORY OF THE NIGHT. EVEN IF I HESITATE IN SAYING 'I LOVE YOU' I'M NOT LYING. YOU'RE ANGRY AND QUIET, THAT'S MY MEMORY OF THE NIGHT. I CAN'T SLEEP IN THE DARK, YOUR VOICE IS WEEPING.❞

      He had everything planned out in his head for when he saw her again. But all of a sudden he blanked as nothing came to mind. It was as if the sight of her numbed him completely. And Tom understood why, after all, it's the first time in months since he's seen Rosé, the last being the time of her car accident. Immediately his eyes flew to her neck where he could see a dark, red scar across her left collarbone.

      Rosé looked down to where he was staring and understood immediately. Her posture relaxed as she giggled at the worried expression on his face. "I'm doing better now if you're wondering," she said as she broke him out of his trance like state. Rosé shrugs as her fingers hesitantly touched the scar. "Just this ugly thing to remind me, but other than that I was able to buy a lot of cute turtlenecks."

      Tom nods his head as he quickly caught on that the topic is something she doesn't want to talk about. He clears his throat as he walks to the chair opposite of Rosé's and took a seat. "When did your flight arrive?" he asks as he attempts to start a new conversation. "Harrison and I arrived about seven hours ago. You must've come earlier, right?"

      His best friend smirked in amusement as she sat back down. She handed him her cup of coffee, most likely a latte that would be overly sweet for his taste. On the rim was a bright, red lipstick stain that didn't seem to be going anyway any time soon.

      "I've been here since last week, Tommy Boy," she informs with a small laugh following right after. She refers to the script that has been thoroughly marked in pen, severely highlighted, overly underlined, and circled to a terrible extent. "I hate coffee, you know that. But with the lack of sleep I need it. Had a little spat with Jon and we finally finalized it. Right now I'm marking tomorrow's lines."

      Tom couldn't help but whistle. To say he is impressed is an understatement. Rosé's work ethic is no joke and Tom could see how passionate she is about her job. For as long as he's known her he's never seen Rosé work so hard for something she loves.

      It was to the point where Tom couldn't help but wonder countlessly on Rosé's future. Whilst he always expressed his love for the arts and acting, Rosé was always indecisive. Annie Shin had signed her daughter up for several lasses in hopes that it'd spark something inside Rosé. She took piano lessons, then violin, and then guitar. For two years she attended figure skating lessons only to drop out because she hated practice with a passion. And even gymnastics only to find out that Rosé couldn't even touch her toes.

      Then again, Rosé never expressed her interest in art or writing. Tom has never even seen her doodle on homework or draw in general. Even for homework that requires art Rosé would always use chicken scratch sketches of stick people.

      "How are you?" he asked abruptly. She was taken back by his sudden question, but the serious glint in his eyes showed that he didn't regret it whatsoever. "It's been awhile. I hope you're not keeping secrets from me, Rosie Girl; Or else I'm going to be very hurt."

      I'm hiding so much from you and I want to tell you, but I can't, was all that screamed inside her head. Her hands, which were out of sight, gripped her kneecaps. The soft skin turning red from how rough she was handling it.

      Maybe working among actors and actresses has some sort of influence on her. Because right now she's able to sit right across from Tom and smile and act like nothing was wrong when everything is. She smiles and shakes her head before she leans forward, her chin resting on her folded hands. "Nope, I'm an open book, remember?" she teases before she pinches his cheek. He groaned in pain, but did nothing to stop her.

      Rosé laughed at the pout on his face as she released his cheek. She handed him the extra script from her drawer before she tapped it with a highlighter. "Come on, Tommy Boy, listen to your fabulous producer and focus, okay?"

      "Don't forget that your mum used to ask me to watch over you and Noah whenever we had play dates."

      "Don't forget that I could make you say some really embarrassing, dumb shit if you mess with me."

      "Yes ma'am."
