EXCERPT
My mind goes into free fall. This is it? We have to part ways? So early? We had just started knowing each other. I want more time with him. I don’t want him to leave me. He slowly releases my hand.
“I .. I don’t want to go alone” I confess. My eyes have tears pooled in them. I hadn’t felt this attached to anyone so far, I am sure not even in my earthly life. He has given me a reason to think about someone so preciously like never before.
“Why should it end here?” I ask with pain in my voice.
“It doesn’t have to end, if you don’t want to” he answers with a weak smile on his lips.
I don’t understand his reply. He is leaving my hand and yet he is giving me a hope to be together? It is confusing. I can feel him withdrawing from me. I don’t understand what to do. The next instant, I wrap my arms around him and sob on his chest. He doesn’t scoop me. He stiffens, stays still and lets me cry. A strange emotion runs through me. I don’t want this to end ever.
