The Love That Wasn't Enough | PEDRI

1

"Can you please just give me some time?". I ask as I look at him in the eyes, he's heart broken. I can see it. "No because I want to fix it". He says trying to touch me but I immediately back away. "You can't fix it". I whisper trying my best to hold back my tears. "Because you are not letting me." He yells.

"Because you are too late Pedri!" I respond quickly. He looks at me in silence.

"I can't do this anymore." I say quietly as I look at him. He is frozen still. I take a deep breath before I continue.

"I can't keep pretending that everything's okay when it's not." I say as he just stares at me. "We've been together for so long." He mumbles as he looks away from me. I sighed and feel my heart break. "We both want different things in life, and we're not making each other happy anymore."

He instantly looks back at me "But I love you. I don't want to lose you." He says, moving closer to me. "I know, and I love you too. But love isn't enough. We need more than that to make a relationship work."

"Nailea I don't want to give up on us." His eyes are crystal red, he's holding back his tears also. "We've already tried talking things out, and it hasn't made a difference. Sometimes, you just have to accept that things aren't meant to be." I say as I take his hand and hold it into mine.

"I'm sorry. I wish things could have been different." I stare at him and I finally let my tears fall.

I let go of his hand, grab my bag and leave.

I unlock my car and immediately go inside. I throw my purse in the passenger seat and start the car. I take one more glance at Pedri's house before speeding off.

I couldn't stop crying. I know I am at fault for ending our relationship but we couldn't keep going on like this. My phone starts ringing which immediately snaps me out of my thoughts.

I turn too look to my left quickly to hear my phone ringing inside my purse. "Fuck." I mumbled. I let my right hand go to be able to get my bag as my other hand is on the steering wheel.

I reach for my bag still not being able to get a hold of my purse or my phone which continues to ring. "Shit." I turn quickly to reach for my bag and then suddenly everything goes dark.

My phone stops ringing.

My hands are no longer on the wheel.

I am no longer driving the car.

All I hear is a loud crash.

And everything around me going black.
