DEVON
The cold water that cascaded down my naked body did nothing to uncoil the tension in the muscles. It didn't cool down the fire that burned in my head and heart.
The day Elena got to know one of the truths about me shouldn't have gone this way. But it was late,.... too late for that.
Things had been on the verge of breaking, yet my stubborn self didn't find any regret in me. I did the right thing!
But how am I supposed to make Elena understand that?
I shut my eyes close as her teary eyes full of disappointment and uncertainties flashed in my mind. Her face was shocked as if I had cut her last string of hope.
She looked like a person whose lifetime dream had been crushed ruthlessly, and now they were left with no direction and no faith.
Not hours before, I promised to always keep her happy, and now she was hurting, wailing while locked up in the other room only because of me.
