Chapter 341: A Present in Which! Do Not Exist.-2
“We lived together again
I say finally, my voice softer now, and at the same time, more vulnerable.
I smile slightly. I think it’s the first time I’ve smiled like this, with pain.
“We tried again.”
I look at her.
“And it worked.”
Her eyes don’t change.
“We got engaged again…”
I continue.
“I asked you to marry me again.”
I remember that moment, so clear, so vivid.
“You said yes…”
My throat closes slightly.
“You put that ring on again.”
I look down for a second.
“We got married…”
I look at her again.
“It was… different… More intimate, more real… More us.”
She listens, but doesn’t connect. I see it, I feel it.
“We went on our honeymoon…”
I add.
My voice softens.
“To a place I… always wanted to see with you.”
A short pause,
“And we did.”
Silence… Nothing, not a reaction, not a spark, not a crack… Nothing.
My chest tightens.

“And not only that…”
I say, even though I already feel like I’m falling apart.
“We were trying…”
I swallow; this weighs more.
“We were trying to have a baby.”
I look her straight in the eyes.
“Don’t you remember?”
She frowns slightly, observing me as if I were speaking another language.
And then… She shakes her head, slowly, gently, definitively.
“No.”
That single word… destroys me more than anything else.
“That doesn’t make sense to me.”
She adds.
“I…”
She pauses.
“I wasn’t there with you.”
I press my lips together.
“But you were…”
My voice trembles.
“You were, Clara.”
She looks down for a second, then back up.
“I’m not sorry.”
She says bluntly.
“And that’s all I have now. I don’t want to hurt you…”
She continues.
“But I can’t pretend to be something I’m not.”
I feel the blow, it hits me straight in the chest. Unfiltered.
“For me…”

Her voice drops.
You’re the rnan i divorced.”
That’s it… That’s the point. That’s where she is.
And I… I’m somewhere completely different.
“And that man…”
She continues.
“He hurt me.”
I close my eyes for a second, I breathe, but it doesn’t help.
“I know…” I murmur. “I know…”
I look at her again.
“But I’m not that man now.”
My voice cracks slightly.
“I’ve changed.”
I take another step, closer.
“For you, for us.”
She watches me, but there’s no recognition.
“I can’t see it.”
She says.
“Because I wasn’t there.”
