She Approved the Split He Fell Apart

Chapter 21

021 Innocent Ava

Sebastian’s POV

I have never seen Scar so happy with her laughter reaching her eyes….when she left with her friends.

She never laughs with me, she just smiles at me- she used to smile at me, but not anymore. Not for months. But even before when she did, it was different from the laugh she had with her friends. Her smile at me was always timid and restrained, like a puppy scared of being hurt, but also desperately flatters people for food.

She wasn’t happy with me. I made sure of that.

I thought I was just “not loving” her. I didn’t. I don’t! And because of that, I never cared if I was hurting her. She forced my hand, and I used that to justify everything.

The past three days were really rough for me.

I couldn’t stop thinking about Scar’s accusation, of how horribly we have been treating her. I felt sick of myself every time I think of the phrase “blood vessel“. I kept searching in my memory for clues to justify my actions. Maybe she deserved it, maybe she brought that to herself, maybe things didn’t have to be that
