“What’s wrong?”

“The reason I wanted to meet you here is that I think we need to talk.” He stared into my eyes and said in a slow gentle voice. “I think we should see other people”

I stared back into his beautiful eyes in disbelife. And with that he stepped backwards.

“Good-bye Ali. I’ll miss you.”

And with that he turned around walking back into the darkness in which he had emerged. As I watched him walk away I felt a tear trickle down my cheek and fall. By the time the tear splashed on to the corse ground Ryan had vanished into the unforgiveable darkness.
