"Because you are leaving?" Adam asked when he saw the woman who a few years ago promised fidelity and eternal love. Yet exactly at that moment, she seemed to want nothing to do with him.
Alejandra, who was the one who suffered the most from the situation, gave him a look full of pain. She hoped he understood that sometimes love was not enough, as he had endured too much the bouts of contempt and indifference he had from Adam.
"There isn't much I can do anymore, I knew you couldn't change and ... even so I tried to help you, to help us" He held the suitcase tightly and tried to continue speaking calmly. "It took me too long to realize that you are not going to change, that you will always treat me the same way. Adam, you are broken and you destroy everything in your path ... I don't want you to continue destroying me, you have done enough these years, no I can do more"
"You said you weren't going to leave me, you promised! Damn it"
"I think it was your mistake, you thought that I would always be there no matter what you did but; it is not like that. I hope that the day you realize the damage you do to people is not too late and you can change.
