That landed.

Hard.

“I don’t want confusion,” I continued. “I don’t want overlap. I don’t want to be in something that already has legal baggage attached to it.”

“It’s not like that”

“I need distance,” I said.

“From this. From you. From whatever this is becoming.”

“Lydia…”

“No,” I said gently.

Not angry.

Just done.

“I need to think.”

He nodded slowly

“Okay.”

No note.

No message.

Just…

Return to sender.

That night, I lay in bed again.

Staring at the ceiling

Processing.

Dave.
