Thanks be to EBT.
32 minutes.
She's been sitting across from me on her bed and looking out the window for 32 minutes.
And she hasn't said a single word.
She knows the truth.
She knows everything.
And I know that there's nothing I can do now, nothing more I can say.
I'd give anything and everything to take it all back, to undo what caused the vacant look on her face, in her eyes.
She's like a statue.
And I did that to her.
I did that to her.
And I have nothing to show for it but the tears on my face and the loss of… everything.
My regret and anguish are overwhelming, and I feel like I'm about to literally explode.
But Bella's voice stops everything in its tracks.
"He asked me to marry him."
Thank you for sticking by this story. It means more to me than I could ever express.
See you later today.
