A little too late

They used to the blood and soul of each other until cruel fate separated them. Now, 10 years later, he is back,engaged. But where is she? Most importantly, how is she?

His heart beat wildly as he tore off in the car like a madman.

His heart wrenched in agony as he wondered how he could have missed all the signs. The self-sacrifice, the running away, everything.

"Tell me you love me" she had whispered that day, "I will be holding on until I hear it from your own lips". Of course, he being the despicable jerk he was, had never replied, not knowing it was the last time he would ever see her beautiful eyes infused with life. But he had known that she could see everything in his eyes. It was all in plain view like an open book. All she had wanted was confirmation. And all he had given her was misery.

"I love you, I love you!!!" he chanted over and over again as he raced down the roads, but little did he know she would never be able to hear it from him again.
