Early in the morning, I went to the campus to meet with the professors and university officials to request a one-semester leave because I really couldn't concentrate on studying, or doing assignments, and I didn't want Leonardo to hinder me anymore. I don't want him to face difficulties again, but deep down, leaving him also makes me feel that it's wrong.
I feel like I'm only adding to his problems, hurting him, considering we've never been apart for too long before. But sometimes I also feel like he would comply with all my wishes because he hasn't tried to contact me since yesterday, I don't know why that makes me sad, worried if he's turning away. I can't imagine what it would be like if that happened if he loved another girl.
'Maybe I'll be shattered,' I thought with anxiety.
I walk through the somewhat quiet campus corridors, occasionally meeting students who have just arrived, and they always stare at me, especially at my stomach.
