"I'm a monster? Nina, we have been together for five years. Have you ever made any sacrifices for me? I endured it when you went to accompany him on the day we moved to a new house, but I have been enduring it for so many years. I don't want to endure it anymore. Let's break up. I beg you to spare me and spare yourself."
I had been enduring it in my previous life, and I never thought of breaking up even when I was dying.
I understood why Nina reacted like this.
After all, as far as she was concerned, my request for a breakup came out of the blue.
And there were no signs.
After ending the call with Nina, I drove back home.
"Kenneth! You're back, finally! Didn't you say you were going to discuss marriage with Nina at her parents' house at noon? Why did you come back alone?"
My mother was having lunch. When she saw me, she quickly put down her fork and went into the kitchen to fix something for me.
"Mom, I miss you so much."
In my previous life, my mother also had cancer. But she kept it from me.
She didn't even go to the hospital, enduring the pain silently at home.
