Her Decision (3)

Watching Xyronos leave without a glance, Iris felt an unnamed agony tormenting her heart. No words could convey the depth of her sadness; it seemed she had lost him forever.

She clenched her hand so tightly it dug into her palms, yet she barely felt the pain.

Earlier, she confessed her true feelings, admitting she loved Xavier in this life. Still, she didn't wish to sever ties with Xyronos either. 

If possible, she hoped they could be friends. However, seeing how hurt he was, the possibility of friendship or crossing paths in the future seemed impossible. 

'Xy, if you can still hear me, I want to apologize again sincerely. I pray you find someone better, someone who'll love you endlessly. Goodbye, Xy. Take care...'

Iris waited for him to answer, but it seemed he had already left this place, or he deliberated to ignore her. She could only sigh silently, sitting in her seat for a while.
