"For you," he asked, "what's the saddest word you know?"

She smiled and answered, "Almost."

He knitted his eyebrows, confused and she continued. "I almost fell for him. I almost trusted him. We almost had it. It was the most painful experience to me. I almost loved him. But it was never meant to be. In the end, I will always be the one to blame. I almost let him in. And I don't know if it will be a mistake or not. We got stuck between being friends and being lovers. It was exhausting so I ended it. I destroyed the bond before 'us' will happen."

"Why would you do that?"

"Because I don't deserve him."
