Chapter 5
The emotional pain became unbearable late at night, manifesting physically.
I clutched my cramping stomach, biting my hand until I nearly lost consciousness.
Vaguely, I felt strong hands lift me up, his usually calm voice now panicked.
In my haze, memories flooded back like a tide.
My relationship with Alex wasn’t always smooth sailing – we’d once completely fallen apart.
It was in our second year together, without warning, when he suggested we separate.
I was planning our first vacation with my rare time off when he said it. It felt absurd.
He looked at me with distant eyes, as if detached: “I can’t give you what you want.”
Just moments before, he’d spent ages fretting over my burned hand.
I thought long and hard, but besides money, I couldn’t imagine what could stand between us.
“It’s okay, we can work it out together.”
“We’re so young – if we just keep trying, we can have everything we want.”
“Besides, I don’t need you to be rich…”
He cut me off, gently patting my head as if we’d never meet again.
“Emma, I’m sorry. I hope you find someone better.”
We were young then, proud and stubborn, believing no one was irreplaceable.
So I didn’t beg, didn’t cry, just feigned calm dignity: “Alex, the truth is you’re a coward. You just don’t love
me enough.”
“If that’s how it is, let’s end this cleanly.”
