Chapter 72

“But why hasn’t he reached out either?” Vivian asked, dropping the knife and turning to face Megan, “He just hung up and never reached out again. He didn’t even try to hold on or fight for me. He left like he’d been wanting a reason to leave and I handed it to him.”

The tears were flowing again, and now she was sobbing. “Oh, I hate him so much, Megan. I miss him so much and I love him. I love him, Megan and I hate that I do”

Megan wrapped her hands around her, letting her sob on her shoulder until she was gasping softly.

“You could call him…” Megan suggested softly as she rubbed her back but Vivian shook her head.

“No” she said, “I have to let him go. With or without the other lady in the picture, it would never work between us. He doesn’t want a real relationship and I want more. I want a commitment and he’s not willing to give me that. I will have to get over him one way or another. Might as well be now. I just don’t understand why it has to be so hard.”
