[Alex's perspective]
My voice trembled, and I asked carefully with all hopes that Charlie won’t run away again.
He looked embarrassed and was silent for a long time. I closed my eyes and told myself over and over again that I shouldn’t cry.
"Let's talk about it."
He gave a vague answer.
After saying that, he moved forward and wanted to leave this sad place.
"If ... if you can!”
“Please send me a message!”
“Just say you're safe!”
I rushed forward, trying to hold him, but I was afraid to drive him away again. I only dared to follow him closely. I couldn't resist it and said those words to him.
He seemed to be moved by me.
"Ok."
I was a little happy, but I was still sad. Looking at his distant figure bit by bit, I can't say how uncomfortable I was. I can't help but ask myself, can he and I really not go back the way we used to be?
No one can give me an accurate answer.
