"I am sorry Mr. Grey, your mother didn't make it" the doctor said.
Christian looked as he had been struck, he took a deep breath and I saw on his face that he felt terrible pain inside. He wasn't close to his mother but he cared of her deep down.
He took his phone from his pocket and dialed a number.
"I want you to take care of a situation" it's all he said to the phone and then he just hung up.
He looked at me and said "let's get you home"
"What? no... No, Christian, I am staying with you, I know how hard this is for you"
My answer made him nervous. "I said let's get you home"
I wanted to say so much but instead I just nodded.
All the way home we didn't talk. when I arrived home, he still didn't say anything he just waited for me to get out of the car. And I did. I closed the car's door as I felt a big wall growing between us. He chose to be alone , to hide his emotions from me. I know he felt pain, but he chose to keep it from me. He said he loved me, but he didn't enough, because if he did he would never let me go...
I felt betrayed. I knew you can't trust people with your emotions, I knew they will eventually hurt you and leave like nothing ever happened.
I wanted to cry, I needed to cry but I wouldn't let me. I was a strong person. I was perfect the way I was and I did not need any person in my life to be complete. I was complete.
I wanted to call him, tell him I want to be near, but I know he didn't want me near. I knew he needed time alone. And I let him have it. I knew he'll call, he will come back.
It passed weeks and he never did. Then it passed months and he never did. Then it passed years... he never did...
Now after 5 years I have a new man in my life. I love him and we have a perfect family. There are days when I still think of Christian. The memories make me happy. I got to know what was true love. I've learned a big lesson from all of it. Sometimes we meet our soulmates, but it doesn't mean we have to stick with them all our lives. Soulmates are made to teach each other a lesson. I got to open myself and be honest with my childhood situation and accept it. Accept that everything that happened in my life is part of the person I am now. Every bad moment , every good moment makes you who you are. I know we were meant to meet with Christian, but we weren't meant to be forever together, we were meant to show each other that we are perfect the way we are.
Thank you for reading. I think this is the end of the story. I hope you enjoyed reading the story.
