After driving for almost two hours, Kevin stopped the car and said," We have to walk from here."
Silvia nodded her head and got down from the car.
" So how far is it?" Silvia asked.
Taking out the bag from the backseat, Kevin said," Not very far. We have to walk for max fifteen minutes."
" Which way?" Silvia asked.
" I'll guide you." Kevin said.
After walking for quite sometime, Silvia wrapped her arms around her and said," It's quite chilly here."
" The breeze is quite strong here. And you know it's almost Autumn so you should wear thick clothes when you come out." Kevin said before taking off his coat and placing it around her shoulder.
" You don't have to this-"
Kevin cleared his throat and said," You know Ms Silvia I am a gentleman."
Wrapping herself around the coat tightly, Silvia said," Ya right."
After walking for quite sometime, Silvia gasped when she realised where they were.
" This is beautiful." Silvia said.
They were currently standing in front of a cliff which had the most beautiful scenery that Silvia and ever seen in her entire life. The cool light breeze, the mountains, the clouds everything looked so beautiful and peaceful.
Grabbing Silvia's hand, Kevin said," Come with me." before dragging her forward.
Kevin stopped three to four metres away from the dead end and said," This was the exact spot where I had proposed Emily four years back and she had said yes."
Silvia could see sorrow and pain in Kevin's eyes. She could feel it and her heart ached for him. Does loving someone really brings so much pain? Isn't love suppose to be a wonderful thing? Kevin loved Emily and what did he get in return? Sorrow, pain and regrets?
Pausing for a while, Kevin said," Emily and I started our journey four years ago and she is only woman that I have been with. I thought we were happy. I thought she was happy with me but I was wrong. May be I could not give her something that she wanted and that is the reason why she chose Richard over me. I don't know whether I am angry with Emily or myself. Sometimes I feel that may be it's my mistake and-"
" It wasn't your mistake. Don't blame yourself Kevin. She is wrong so please stop blaming yourself." Silvia said.
Placing the bag down, Kevin held Silvia's hand and said," I won't lie to you Silvia, my feelings for Emily were really very strong. I don't know about her but I was really very sure about us and may be I still feel about her. I just don't know what I am feeling right now. It's complicated. I don't think that I have the strength to fall in love again. I don't think that I can feel this strong for anyone else now. I don't even know why I want to marry you and I don't understand why you want to marry me after knowing everything."
Pausing for a while, he continued," Since we are about to start a new journey together, I want to leave everything behind. I don't know whether I will be able to throw Emily out of my life or not but I want to at least take the first step. This is the place where Emily and I started our relationship so I want to end things with her here itself."
Kevin chuckled and said," I may sound girly but one of my cousin once told me that throwing your ex's gifts and cards helps to get closure."
Silvia laughed and said," Ya I heard it does."
Picking up the bag from the floor, Kevin said," So here are the things that Emily gave me when we were together. I don't know how much this is going to help but-" before throwing the bag down the cliff," I still wanna give it a shot."
Rubbing his arm, Silvia asked," Are you okay?"
Kevin smiled and said," Yeah I am fine."
" You'll get over this." Silvia said.
Kevin nodded his head and said," Come let's go otherwise you'll catch cold."
