" I will love you for eternity, " he said.
Never in a million years did she expect him to do what he did. Never mind if the love had died. He owed it to her to stay, to make this relationship work. Why? Because she had given up everything to be with him. All she had was him. Family, friends, in fact, everyone warned her that he was pretending to be nice only because he needed her then to fulfil his dreams. As long as she was around to provide him with a home, he could work on his dreams to be the next big thing on stage.
Now, five years later, he tells her that they were not meant to be. That she was not ambitious enough for him.He had met someone who is able to take his career to the next step.
"Not ambitious? I gave up my dream so that you could have yours!" Anna was heartbroken. She was too numb to even shed a single tear. "What happened to Eternal love?"
Well, she could only blame herself. But she won't, she did it for someone she loved. For the man who made her smile, who made her heart flutter and put knots in her stomach with a single kiss. Surely, he had felt something for her. She did not have to know. She just needed to live knowing that it was all worth it and the beautiful memories she would carry in her heart for eternity. For to Anna, she meant every word she had uttered to him.
"Goodbye George! Thank you for all that you were to me and I wish you well," her last words to him. The last time he would hear her voice or ever see her.
Great attempt! Love the setting Keep writing
ReplyDeleteThanks for the encouragement. I realise that writing short stories are a little more manageable
