Chapter 59

After what felt like forever, Amy stopped crying. She was leaning against Bryan’s chest while staring into nothing.

“Tell me what happened” Bryan said, breaking the silence. He gently stroked her arm to encourage her.

Amy breathed deeply, lifting her head from his chest to sit properly.

“He left the city because of me… I tried to talk him out of it, but his mind was already made up” Amy quietly explained.

“He stayed back all these years just to be close to me and I didn’t even notice”

Bryan listened to Amy with a heavy heart. She looked so lost while explaining everything, making him feel guilty. He should’ve just let her go the first time. None of this would’ve happened if he hadn’t listened to her tearful pleas.

“So, what do you want?” He couldn’t help but ask. He wanted to know what was really on her mind because he couldn’t quite tell, but she seemed conflicted.
