'Were you not the one who dumped me?’
Angeline was aggrieved. "I know I’m not pretty anymore. I can’t do anything. I can't hold you back from all the good that is left in this world... Jaybie, I don’t want to hurt you anymore."
Jay was distraught. "I always thought that my life's purpose is to make your life better. But I didn't expect that I've pushed you to a dead end. Angeline, if you jump down, I will follow you..."
Angeline shouted angrily, "Why won’t you let me go?"
When he saw that she had let go of the railing, Jay ran forward and hugged her tightly. "I will never give up o n you. I have no reason to give up on you."
"You obviously don't want me, so why won’t you let m e go?" Angeline cried out like a child in pain.
Jay was beginning to figure it out. He remembered the look in her eyes when he woke up this morning. At that time, her eyes were bright, but they were full of grievances.
Had she been mad at him since then?
Jay felt that he was misunderstood. "I don't despise you, how would I ever?"
"It's so obvious! You and I slept in separate beds..."
Jay suddenly laughed. She still loved him! She was just bothered by his unconscious alienation.
"You didn't allow me to get close to you!" Jay sounded like a child.
Angeline did not know what to say.
When had she said such a thing?
"Alright, I'll take apart that single bed when I get back. If you ever kick me out of the bedroom, I won't have a place to sleep anymore," Jay held Angeline's face and said joyfully.
