I let out a bitter chuckle. "Did you think everything would be absolved just because you didn't mean to and we love each other? That we can continue to be together without any hard feelings?”
"You've been lying to yourself this whole time too. Just ask yourself if we’re really meant for each other."
Theo cast his eyes downward, his aura turning even colder now.
I covered my eyes and fell into a despondent mood. "I tried letting go too. I tried forgetting those painful memories. I thought perhaps we could try for a child, but fate likes playing tricks on me. I can no
longer conceive. That also means that I have no way of making up for my regret over losing my child. I have no way of covering up those painful memories for the rest of my life."
I was an emotional person, not an emotionless robot. It was perfectly normal for me to be tormented by painful memories.
Sometimes, I would cast envious gazes at mothers carrying their children on the streets. When that happened, those painful memories would come out to haunt me. In other words, I could not spend the rest of m y life with Theo without any hard feelings.
To save the two of us from being in more pain, I made a firm decision to leave him.
After both of us fell silent for a very long time, Theo got up to leave.
I heard him giving Keith a call and asking him to bring two sets of clothes over.
He entered the bathroom after hanging up the call.
Keith came in no time at all. There was a knock on the door. Theo came out of the bathroom to open the door.
He came back with two bags in his hands. He was not embarrassed about putting on his clothes while standing in front of the bed.
