“Truthfully, I already knew about Savannah’s relationship. I was only scared you would be hurt and never dared to mention it.”
“Let’s return home. Let’s go home, alright?”
“I will stay beside you, stay beside you while you step away from the past, stay beside you while you release Savannah.”
Held in Ravena’s gentle embrace, Draco slowly lifted his head.
He gave one final glance toward where I was.
Then he angrily threw the cake in his hands onto the ground outside my door.
He swore that in this life he would never meet me again.
He wished that I would live forever with regret and hurt.
I stared at the screen before me.
Watching him and Ravena lean into each other, moving toward the early light.
Watching him leave me forever on that freezing night.
Not long afterward, Draco and Ravena had a wedding.
Those two slowly met, grew close, and cared for each other, staying side by side for their whole lives.
They turned into a well-known loving pair inside their social group.
Meanwhile, I was cut apart by the murderer and thrown away in open fields.
I turned into a lonely wandering soul in the far hills.
Those thoughts stopped, plus just when I planned to breathe out softly.
