Even If I Can't Love You?
" What's wrong with you?!"
"......."
" Why can't you just be honest with yourself? Can't you say that you love me too?!"
A seemingly fierce voice echoing in her head, with her head down. She didn't say a word to explain anything to him. It was just as she had expected, but her heart seemed much more messed up than the sad expression on her face.
" ..... AAH, you're just.... "
He sighed, seeing her like that as if he had suddenly realized something and held her in his arms.
" ... I'm sorry .... I shouldn't have shouted like that.... "
"......"
He kept apologizing, but he didn't hear a word from her. Holding her face with his hands, he said in a sweet voice.
" Hey, look at me. Won't you show me your face at least..."
She looked up at his worried face with a complicated heart. She was struggling to understand her feelings, but she didn't want to deceive him in any case.
"....."
" W-What's wrong? I-I'm sorry for shouting... can you please not cry like that... "
Tears falling down without her realizing it as if she had been holding on for too long. He hugged her tightly. It was the first time he had seen her cry.
" It's alright if you don't want to talk to me, but please don't cry. I swear I won't do anything to hurt you again."
He tried hard to calm her. Seeing him trying so hard, she didn't want to worry him any further and tried to smile but it was just not easy to smile.
"... It's nothing...."
" How can it be nothing when you suddenly start crying and..... And you told me that you want to... breakup with me. "
" ...What if I say that I can't love you anymore. I can't keep lying to you."
" .... I'll understand even if that's the case. But , why are you crying suddenly?"
She couldn't give him an answer. She knew that he loved her, but it was hard for her to believe it. He was willing to do anything for her, but he never wanted to part ways with her.
" I don't want to keep going this way. I just don't understand it. Maybe it's better for you and me to.... "
He kissed her out of the blue and didn't let go. He just didn't want to hear her saying those words anymore.
" Can't you see that I've been patient enough to wait for you for years, and now you want to leave me. Can't you show me some mercy?"
She never expected that the person who always remained cool and indifferent to everything could say that.
" No matter what happens, Kiara, you are mine. If something's wrong then we can always make it better, but there's no out of this relationship once you have stepped in. I won't force you, but I won't leave you either."
"......."
He never intended to be dominant. He always kept calm in front of her but that didn't work today. He was adamant to persuade her. He hugged her again and again just to see her smile. She had promised not to trust people again but, decided to give it a chance for him.
But was that really a good decision or would she end up getting hurt as always?
