"But... in the past, when something went wrong, you would admit your mistake first. Miss, don't be so stubborn. Just apologize, like you used to. Wait for Mr. Bill to come back, everything will be fine. There's no lingering grudge between you two."
Laura lowered her head, reflecting on everything from the past.
Every time she and Darren argued, it was always her who softened first, even though those things weren’t her fault.
But she felt that her conversations with her mother had made Darren insecure about love.
So, she was willing to be the one to bow down. She was willing to compromise countless times for him, just to repeatedly confirm to him that she truly loved him.
But now, Melanie had been dating him for just three months before cheating and going abroad. Yet, Darren still loved her just the same.
Laura tugged at the corners of her lips, but she couldn't force a smile.
She only felt a sharp, sour pain in her throat, a sense of agony, as if everything was pointless.
What was she even pursuing? Love? But had Darren ever truly loved her?
Laura looked up at the overcast sky, her tears mixing with the rain, slowly eroding the last remnants of her love.
