As Long as You're Happy
~~~
(Part 1)
~~~
(Her POV)

I kept telling myself that everything i did was for the best... that i was doing it for you. And I was; everything I did I always did for you. I remember constantly telling myself: as long as you're happy, then everything is gonna be okay. I consistently told myself that no matter what happened, as long as you were happy, then the outcome wasn't important. I saw that you were deeply in love with her, even though she treated you wrongly. Even though I was crazily in love with you, I put everything aside. It wasn't up to me. As long as you were happy, I supported you. I had always told myself that my own needs or wants weren't important as long as you were happy. I just wanted you to be happy. So... when you told me that you didn't want me in your life anymore... because it would be the best, I assumed you would be happy with that decision, so I didn't protest. I let you walk away and live your life and be who you are. And I kept telling myself over and over and over again- as long as you're happy, then this is for the best. But I also asked myself the same question:
Why did you leave? What was I doing wrong that drove you away? I did everything I could to make and keep you happy and I always put you before me. Was I not good enough for you? Did I not do enough? I wish I knew. But if you avoiding me and keeping me away helps you, then as long as you're happy, I'll be content with it.
