"Mira, I'm sorry. For everything," Kade said, his voice low and raw. I could feel his pain, his regret. But what does it matter now?
It's all happened. I couldn't act like his rejection and
I looked away, trying so hard to hold my tears back. I didn't answer.
I focused on wrapping his wounds, my hands moving on their own. Why now? Why after all this time he decides to say sorry?
"You don't have to believe me. But I never stopped thinking about you. I never meant to hurt you. I thought…. I thought I was protecting you. "
I scoffed. "Is that supposed to mean something now?"
"No." His voice was quiet. "But it’s the truth."
The so-called truth didn't matter anymore.
He rejected me. And whether he meant to or not, it broke me.
"You’re done," I said sharply, standing and stepping back. "You can leave now."
"Mira—"
"Kade. There's nothing else to talk about."
I didn't wait for a reply and walked out. His apology didn't mean anything anymore.
