Korra POV

It was Iroh. He was looking worried at me, his eyes looking over my clothes and stopping on my bag.

"Korra, what…?"

"I'm leaving" I just told him. I had to be strong. I didn't want to cry in front of him, but it didn't seem like my eyes agreed with me as they filled with tears.

"What? Why?" Iroh was standing in front of me in a matter of seconds. "Korra, why would you leave? You were going to get married to Mako"

"No, I'm not. The wedding is off"

He just looked shocked at me. I actually just wanted to get out of this castle. It was like everything in here reminded me of Mako and what had just happened. Even Iroh reminded me of him.

"What's going on?" Iroh asked me as he put his hand on my shoulder. I fought the urge I had to push it off me. "Mako loves you, it's…"

"NO!" I yelled at him. Surprised he took a step back from me. I wasn't a person to yell a lot, so I guess it seemed a little off, but I didn't care. My heart was broken, broken beyond repair. I wasn't myself anymore. I hurt so badly, I just wanted the pain to go away, and right now the only idea I had to do that was to get away from here. "He doesn't love me, Iroh. If he did then he wouldn't, he wouldn't…."

I probably sounded like a lunatic.

"What did he do? What did he say to you, Korra? Please tell me" I wasn't sure I wanted to, but what had I to lose.

"He chose money over me." I lifted my head and looked him in the eye. Suddenly I had a urge to tell him everything. "I asked him to lower the taxes so the people can survive, but he refused, even when I said I would leave if he didn't. This wedding was a bad idea from the start…"

"No it wasn't. You love him, he loves you it's – "

"Normal?" I laughed. An empty cold laugh, that sounded nothing like me. "I shouldn't have said yes, I barely even knew him"

"Bolin asked Asami a week after they started dating"

"But they have known each other almost their whole lives." I felt myself almost breaking dawn. "I have to go" I turned around to leave, but Iroh took a hold of my arm.

"At least wait until Asami and Bolin come home in about a week"

I gently pulled my arm out of his grab.

"I'm sorry Iroh, but today this is goodbye" I told him still fighting tears. I never thought of the friends I had got here at the castle. It wasn't just Mako I said goodbye to.

"Don't say goodbye" He almost begged me. "Please don't…"

"Goodbye" It was barely a whisper. I quickly turned around and ran the rest of the way to the big door leading out of the castle. I hurried into the stables where Naga was. I was lucky that she still was wearing her saddle. I quickly led her out of the stables and got on her. I ignored the voices calling me back as I hurried out of the gate and on my way home, fighting the tears which now ran down my cheeks.

A part of me hoped the tears would somehow drown me, so I wouldn't have realize I wasn't going to see Mako again.

I didn't know how long time it took before Naga stopped in front of the well-known house. I just walked over to the door and knocked on the door. The second it opened I gave up. I fell down on the ground with my broken heart, sobbing like a mad. Katara didn't say anything, and either did I. There was no need for word. I just laid there on my needs while Katara slowly ran her hand over my back. But even she couldn't heal my heart. I was afraid it was impossible to ever be healed.

Mako POV

It couldn't be. Korra wouldn't seriously consider leaving me, would she? I know she said that she would, but people say so much when they are angry. It didn't mean that she really would do it.

These were the thoughts that ran through my brain as I walked back and forth in my room a while after Korra had left. It was like my brain couldn't find out what exactly had happened just before when Korra and I talked, or more like fought.

But I had to be sure. I had to be sure that she didn't leave. I quickly got out of the room and headed towards Korra's room. I had forgotten everything about the meeting we were having, and I didn't care much about it anyway. At least not until I was sure Korra hadn't left.

Finely I was standing in front of the door. I stood there a moment before I gathered enough courage to open the door.

"Korra, I…" I stopped the second I had a free view of the room. It was empty! I walked into the room and looked around. All of Korra's things were gone, leaving the room look… empty. It was unbelievable how much space those small things took. It was almost as if Korra never lived here. That she never existed, but the hole in my heart told me something else.

That was when I saw something shine in the sunlight on the ground. I bend down and picked it out. It was her ring. The ring I had given her. The ring that was proof of my love and engagement to her. She really had left. She was gone.

"Mako" I looked up and saw Iroh standing in the door looking at me. There was something in his eyes. Disappointment. He knew.

"You know" I just said as I sat down on the ground.

"Yes."

"Did she tell you?"

"Yes."

"so…"

"Idiot"

I looked up on my best friend. I was confused and shocked.

"What?"

"You heard me. I said you are an idiot. How could you even tell her something like that?"

I quickly got up and stood up in front of him. How dared he?!

"Don't make me sound of the bad guy here, Iroh" I almost spit his name out. "You have no idea what she did. You only heard her side of the story"

"I only needed her side." Iroh told me. "You are a egoistic idiot.."

I gripped his collar, but Iroh didn't react at it.

"How dare you?!"

"I dare all what I want Mako" He just said calmly. "I am supposed to be your best friend"

"Who date my fiancé?" I accused him. All my anger and sorrow just came out now.

Iroh just laughed at me. "Date? Really Mako? I was just there for her. You didn't have time, so I did it instead." He starred seriously at me "At least I didn't choose money over me love"

And with he pulled himself out of grab and walked out of the door.

"She will come back!" I yelled after him "I give her maximum a week, then she will be back" I sank down on my knees. "She will come back" It was barely a whisper now "She has to."
