BPOV
I blinked twice to make sure it was actually him!
What was he doing here?
"Bella... God! I missed you!" He said as he took me in his arms.
"I missed you so much!" He kept repeating as he hugged me tighter.
What the hell was going on?
"What are you doing here?" I asked as I slowly pushed him away.
I mean... This couldn't be real.
Why was he here out of the blue?
"Can I come in?" He said, "Please! I need to talk to you."
"Talk to me about what?" I said.
"About... a lot of things... Please..." he said.
I didn't get it?
What did he want to talk about now?
But I guess there was no point discussing everything standing at the door...
"Haah! You finally got this couch!" He said as he sat on it.
He had hated this couch when we tried it out, but I loved it... I bought this two months back because it was still available and I decided to go with what I wanted to have in my home...
But wait... What's going on here?
"Hmmm... It's not too bad actually! I guess I should have trusted your choice!" He smiled.
"Edward..." I asked with frustration, "Can you please tell me what's going on?"
"I love your new haircut!" He smiled, "It really suits you!"
"Can you tell me why exactly you are here?" I said with annoyance.
"I'm sorry if I'm annoying you..." he said, "I'm just... so excited and nervous right now..."
"Just come to the point..." I said.
"I broke off the engagement with Irina..." he said.
Oh!
I wasn't expecting that!
Or maybe it was expected at some point?
I mean, there was no fucking way Irina and he would have lasted!
"Oh..." I said.
"I don't know what I was thinking at that time... I wasn't in the right state of mind when I got engaged to her..." he said.
"Hmmm..." I said.
I wasn't really sure why he was telling me all these now!
"I'm sorry for... everything..." he said, "I know I've hurt you more than I can even imagine when it was not even your fault! I blamed you for something that your brother did... I cheated on you and I'm so ashamed of it..."
"Edward..." I sighed.
Was there any point of this conversation now?
"But I want to make things right... I want to do it the right way... I took a pause and try to see where I was wrong... I can see everything so clearly now... I know where exactly I was wrong..."
His eyes were full of pain...
He had been an asshole to me, but he had been through a lot... I knew what Alice meant to him...
"Edward... I'm really, really glad you can see everything clearly now..." I said.
"Can you ever forgive me for what I did?" He asked.
"I... I don't know..." I said.
I had stopped thinking about it altogether for the last few weeks...
I was so happy in my bubble with Edward that I almost forgot to think about my past...
Thinking of him... I glanced at my phone again... Still nothing! He was pissing me off so much right now! I mean, I could understand that he was upset because it was his wife's birthday and I should be patient with him... But why was he ghosting me? Why was he acting like an ass?
"You look upset and mad at me, and rightfully so..." he said.
"No... It's... No... I'm not mad at you right now..." I said.
"You are not?" A smile flickered through his face.
