Zak's POV
Letting her go
I knew that it would have come down to this again, but this time I was man enough to tell her. I knew that it would break her heart but it was something that I could move on from eventually, she deserved to be happy with someone other than myself.
The look in her eyes were sad and subtle and the tears slowly ran down her cheeks immediately after hearing what I said, it broke my heart to see her crying and as much as I wanted to comfort her I didn't move from where I stood.
Nothing else was said between us so I watched as she walked out of my life again, I let out a deep sigh before sitting down on the couch next to Gracie who had been sleeping peacefully until I woke her up. I decided to stop thinking about what just happened so I packed an overnight bag and drive to Aaron's house so we could head to the office before we headed to our destination.
I knew that her name would be brought up eventually but I would talk about that when the time come, she was a lovely woman but it scared me to know that she wanted to spend the rest of her life with me and I didn't want that for her so I did what I felt was the right thing and let her go.
Aaron: you did what?!
Zak: I decided to let her go...
Aaron: you can't be serious, she was the one for you.
Zak: I know, but she deserves better than me...I can't make her happy so I let her go so she could be happy.
Aaron: and if she comes back?
Zak: I will cross that bridge when the time comes...
I didn't continue addressing the choice I made because I did it to allow her to find the happiness she deserved, if she come back it was because she wanted to be happy with me. I wasn't content with her not being here but knew deep down that she would be better off without me in her life and I truly hoped that she would move on with her life and settle down with someone other than me.
