Chapter 788. Hitting Me Harder

Mera Ambrose

This isn't the first birthday of his that has passed... It isn't the day of his d- it's not that either. Though somehow today, this birthday is hitting me harder.

I kindly ask the guard not to follow me as I rush out to the garden. Even here, in the garden filled with flowers and greenery, I can't breathe. So I keep walking, I know that if I walk some more I'll be out of the Keep and that's exactly what I want.

Guards are probably following me but I can't hear or see them so it's fine. My vision is getting a bit foggy but somewhere on the horizon, I see water. Maybe the sea? I don't care. I rush toward it.

It's late at night, no one is here. No one would be.

My legs can't hold me up anymore and I drop onto the warm sand. Silent tears roll down my cheeks.

I'm trying to keep my breaths steady but it's impossible. I miss him so fucking much. And I feel so fucking guilty.
