Paul grabbed her hand, stared at her, and after a long, long time, he leaned into her, weakly resting his forehead on her shoulder.
"Eva, what do I have to say, what do I have to do for you to believe me..."
He didn’t understand, he really didn’t understand. He had already expressed his feelings, told her he loved her, wanted to marry her, so why was it still not enough?
He was so tired, he had never been this tired before. This feeling was more painful than death itself...
"I know, you have let me go, you have moved on without me, that's why you rejected me so gently, but it hurts so much..."
He drank so much alcohol, but he couldn’t forget the image of Jayden pressing her against the wall and kissing her.
He felt like she was his woman, how could she let someone else kiss her?
He asked himself, why did he feel like Eva belongs to him?
He only just realized, he loved her.
"Do you know how close I was to being furious when I saw you kissing Jayden..."
"Why hurt me like this, why can't you come back to me? Why..."
His voice choked up as he said these words, the frustration of unrequited love made his eyes turn red.
