The Love that Never Really Dies (Sasha and Sebastian)

Upon hearing that, Ian fell into silence.

Ian's face was flushed with embarrassment and panic. In fact, he looked like he had done something shameful, and he had nothing to say to defend himself. Susan then saw Ian running back into the apartment.

Right then, disappointment crushed Susan like a boulder.

She had no idea how to describe what she was feeling at that precise moment, but if being on Ian's back was heaven, then what she had just encountered had made her feel like she was in hell.

She had never felt so devastated before in her life.

"Susan, what you did tonight was brilliant, but did you see that? You've lost. He actually cares about these things. Although you keep saying there's nothing going on between the both of you, I don't think he's on the same page as you.” Sigrun stared at her and added salt to her wound.

Hearing that, Susan felt even worse.

That night, she had no idea how she returned home, nor did she know how the night went by. All she could remember was that when the sun came up, she was still sitting in her chair and staring blankly at the window. Back then, he wasn't the slightest bit bothered. On the other hand, it was me. I was scared, and I had backed away. That was what caused US to separate in the first place. After that, Ian decided to forget all about it. Why does he care again now that I'm back? Is this karma? Is this what I get for being a coward back then?

Susan couldn't help but shiver when those thoughts ran through her mind.
