He doesn’t have a heart to begin with. His chest is a wasteland where no heart, no flower will ever grow.
“So promise me.”
“Promise you.” I nod, my neck in his grip, my head feeling heavy.
“Promise me this is the last time. And maybe one day…”
“One day what?”
“One day I can meet someone and I can fall in love with him. I want to fall for someone. A different guy. A good guy. A guy who doesn’t hurt me like you do.”
That the guy who gave me this pain is also the one who took it away. He’s the one who soothed it.
“Yes. I want this to end, Reed. I don’t want to be broken anymore. I don’t want you to be haunted. We need to move on. We need to forget about each other. We need to forget that we ever met.” I look into his eyes that have turned even harsher now. “I need to forget that I ever met you. That I ever fell in love with you. I need to forget you, Reed. I want to. And I want this to be the last time.”
“I don’t know if you know this, Roman, but you don’t have to give her everything she wants. You can say no to her.”
“Why would I say no to her when I want to give her everything she wants?”
"I figured it out four weeks ago.”
“Figured out what?”
“That you’re in love with me.” His eyes pierce into mine.
“You figured it out.”
“Yes.”
“How?” I go up on my tiptoes.
“Because I’m smarter than you.”
His chest is not barren after all. There’s at least one flower in it. For her. For our baby.
