"I've been with you since I was 19 years old. I'm almost 24 now. It's been five years, and we've never put an official title to our relationship. How many more years will this continue?
"Should I spend the rest of my life being your mistress? Enjoying the glory and wealth you give me while bearing endless insults? Becoming known as a hated homewrecker? Is this your way of loving someone?
"You keep saying that I'm the only one you love, and I should be happy. But this kind of love hurts more than I can bear. And I don't want it anymore. Since you're here today, I'll make it clear. Flynn Hayes, I don't want the past to repeat itself. Let's break up." Queenie choked up.
Flynn's expression became frantic with a mixture of embarrassment and panic in his eyes. He rushed over in fear and grabbed Queenie. "No, Queenie. I never said you were a mistress! You're not a homewrecker either! You're the only one I love! Take it back, Queenie. I don't want to break up!
"Queenie, I know you resent me. You can hit me and scold me, but don't leave me! Queenie, I'll give you everything I have. Just come back with me. I'll transfer all my assets to you. Once Yanice gives birth to the child, I'll move back in with you. And I won't ever touch her again, okay?
"Come, hold my hand. Let's go home together. Come home, Queenie. You're the only one I love. Trust me."
Queenie suddenly burst into laughter. As her laughter grew, so did the desolation behind it.
I looked at her sadly and hugged her tighter.
Poor Flynn, he still didn't understand what love was. Someone like him didn't deserve Queenie.
