further

intend on repeating past mistakes”

Bernard let out a painful laugh, “Yeah, used to…”
No one knew how much he loved her
Why did she only say she used to love him when he finally realized it

each other, and that’s enough. We shouldn’t be together again” She didn’t want to go back to the

to explain that it wasn’t because of Garrett, but he had already changed the subject. “Are you thirsty?”

away.

distance between them, with neither knowing how to cross this unbridgeable gap They sat there in
silence, not talking making the room even quieter
Eleanor felt that if she continued to be alone with Bernard, she would feel incredibly suffocated, so she
decided to break the silence.
Mr Laurence, how much longer do I have to stay here?”
Seeing her eagerness to leave, Bernards heart ached, and a bitter smile appeared on his face.
“Eleanor, do you not want to be with me anymore?”
Eleanor didn’t look up at him again.
