And him, hearing her weak voice on the phone, his fingertips trembled slightly, even his heart felt like it was being tightly bound, causing a sharp pain.
How long had it been since he felt so flustered and lost?
He thought that in these past few years, he really had built an impenetrable wall around himself, stable as a mountain. But after just a few days with Ariel Morris, he lost his composure, lost the calmness and poise he had always prided himself on.
Turns out time doesn't just change a person, it can also deepen certain things, like longing.
He always forced himself to forget Ariel Morris, but eight years only made him miss that beautiful youthful time even more.
Arlo Seys sighed, turning to look at the person still unconscious on the hospital bed, fury rising in his eyes.
Ariel Morris, it was you who told me we should break up and then left! If distancing yourself from me is what makes you happy, why can't you live well?
Why can't you be doing well?
