Prologue

"I know it was all just a big fat joke, Drew. And I admit, I fell for it."

I didn't know what else to say. After all he has done, he's running after me saying he's sorry? I just can't believe it. I have loved him. I gave my life to him. How could he do such thing? And of all the billion people living in this world, why me?

"I'm sorry Emma. I didn't mean it. Believe me I really don't. Just please listen to..."

I cut him off immediately. 'He's lying Emma, don't fall for it again' my subconscious trying to stand by my side. I can't deal with him right now. Everything still seems to be so fresh in my mind.

"Would you please leave me alone? I'm tired of all these shits Drew. You just played with my feelings and now you're asking me to believe in you? What the hell Drew? I'm leaving and you can't stop me."

He grabs me by the hand and pulled me towards him. He hugged me tight and I cried. One touch of him, one touch and here I am again. I can't move. It feels like there's a magnetic force in the ground I am standing that keeps my from walking away. I know I'll miss him. The way he hugged me every time we fought, the way he gently kissed me telling me how much he loves me, those priceless moments we have that I know I cannot easily throw away. But I have to wake up. That was all just a big mistake. A mistake I shouldn't have done. If only I could just turn back time, if only I knew what was going to happen. But no. This is the reality and I need to open my eyes. I want to hug him back saying it's okay but I don't want to hurt myself anymore. I took away his arms and pushed him away.

"I'm done Drew. I'm done."
