Tomorrow I call up Chris.

“Hey, can you come pick me up. I need to talk to you.â€?

“Ok, everything alright?â€?

“Ya.”

Within a couple of minutes I hear the honk of the horn. I come down the stairs and kiss Edwin bye.

“I am going out for a momment, be back soon.â€?

“Ok,â€? He kisses me back.

I run out the door and go into his car. We drive to the lake. Music is turned up like usual, but this time I did not sing. When we arrive, we walk and sit on the grass.

“Chris?â€? I say getting his attention.

He looks at me with a smile, but it falls when he sees the concern on my face. I look down and sigh.

“I can’t do this anymore, being here with you. Edwin has been through so much…â€?

“This is all about him?â€? He interupts, “What about what you want?â€?

“It doesn’t matter what I want, I am going to be married Chris. I can’t…â€?

“What? You can’t be with me because you feel bad for Edwin!?â€?

“I am sorry…â€?
