Thalassa’s words reached the tip of her tongue, but suddenly she paused, unable to continue.
What’s the point in telling him all this?
She had been forced into losing her virginity and ended up pregnant because of it.
For the past five years, she was busy taking care of her child, with absolutely no time or energy to date.
She already had four kids, which was more than enough for her.
Did she really need to bring him up to speed with all this?
Over the years, all her thoughts had been on her kids, with no time to dwell on the past.
She no longer gave a damn about whether he betrayed her or not.
To Thalassa, Leopold was just a passerby in her life, with no connection left now.
Seeing her stop mid–sentence, Leopold urgently urged her, “Why? Tell me.”
Thalassa took a deep breath, not wanting to continue. She averted her gaze, whispering, “Just drop it,
don’t waste your time on me anymore. We broke up five years ago, just stop trying to find me.”
He cheated, and that’s that, no excuses needed.
Besides, she’s now a mother of four. There’s no room for Leopold in her life.
It’s better to cut him off for good, letting him start anew, than to give him false hope and keep him waitin
g.
Waiting for something that’s never going to happen was just wasting prime years.
With that, she turned and headed towards the staircase, not looking back.
Leopold didn’t go after her. He watched her retreating figure with loss, his hopes crushed once again.
Seeing her resolute figure, his heart ached even more. He gritted his teeth and said, “Thalassa, I won’t
give up! You’re my first love and the one I’ll love for life. I won’t ever give up on you!”
By now, Thalassa had turned the corner, out of Leopold’s sight downstairs.
Her strength drained away in an instant, and she leaned against the wall.
Her heart was trembling in pain, and tears were flowing without warning.
Her mind was filled with memories of her days with Leopold at school, their youthful days, and their inn
ocent love.
He was her first love, and she was his too.
If it weren’t for what happened five years ago, she and Leopold might be married now, living a peaceful
and happy life.
The past was so beautiful, and the present was so cruel.
What had happened in the past can’t be changed.
The issue at hand wasn’t something an apology, explanation, or compensation from him can solve.
From the moment she got pregnant and had the child, it was destined that she and Leopold would be li
ke parallel lines, never crossing paths.
Leopold waited downstairs for a while, but Thalassa didn’t come back.
He hung his head, got back in his car, and drove off.
There’s plenty of time. One day, he will make Thalassa face her feelings and be with him again.
At the playground in the neighborhood.
Elowen and Sophia were having fun on the slide.
Elowen suddenly tugged at Evelyn’s hand, saying, “Mom’s back, let’s go home.” Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
Curious, Evelyn asked, “How do you know Mom’s back?”
Elowen replied, “I saw her in a black
car. A very handsome man was dropping her off.” Elowen’s voice was soft and clear and very sincere.
Evelyn heard every word clearly.
Thalassa was in a black car, dropped off by a very handsome man.
Elowen didn’t just call anyone handsome. Only really good–
looking guys, like Atticus and Dorian, would earn that praise.
