Running Into You

Chapter 18: Broken

It is not easy to let go when you are not prepared for the fall.

Being left by the people we love is one of the most traumatic events,

We hope would never happen to us.

We may know at the back of our minds that nothing lasts forever but still,

We always hope that maybe, we are an exception to that and

Maybe we can live happily ever after.

Ryan smith POV

The meeting with Mr. Jones ended at 12 o'clock. We discussed about the amount of capital needed to finance our new project in New York. Cyndiana was looking at me throughout the whole meeting. I couldn't look at her without feeling the guilt of leaving her again. At the end of the meeting, I decided to tell her everything that she needs to know, my true feelings about her, I was really happy that finally we would be together , this was what I always wished for, until I got a text from dad that changed everything. I was taken aback by his words; he traded me for a business deal, now I have to marry one of his business partners' daughter. I knew this deal was worth billions but not more than my happiness, I thought he would understand me but now I know I can't drag Cyndiana into this mess. She deserves to be happy even if I'm not a part of it. I have to keep myself away from her and end everything that we have before it's too late to handle even if that means I have to hurt her to do so, I will have to do this, at least for her.

Cyndiana Collins POV

The meeting was over, Mr. Jones left leaving us behind. I wanted to talk to Ryan but he was not even looking at me, so I started to walk out when I heard his cold voice,

"I know I've kissed you but this doesn't imply that I love you and we are done, whatever we had is over and it was never real, I don't want to pretend that I care for you when actually I don't, I never liked you in the first place, you're just not my type, I only kissed you out of pity because you were about to cry, I felt the need to console you. I mean take a look at yourself, who would like you and it's no wonder why you're still single, you're just worthless and someone like me doesn't belong to someone like you, you're too low class for me and lastly to make it more clear to you, your feelings for me are just not reciprocated."

With all those words he just said, he ended each and every feeling that was left for him. Every word that came out of his mouth was like a stab in my heart. I didn't wanted to believe him, I felt weak and broken at that moment. Tears were threatening to roll down to my cheeks, I didn't knew what to say, I knew this was coming but somehow wished it never ended this way, I always hoped of having a happy ending with him. I should have known that he would never love me and never hope that he will. He stared at me with a cold and blank expression, his brown eyes holding nothing in them, without wasting anymore minutes; he stood up and left the conference room while I stared at his back. My heart was broken into million pieces, I tried hard not to cry but a traitorous tear escaped my eye and rolled down onto my cheek, I quickly wiped it away, I was not going to cry again for someone who never loved me in the first place and my tears are precious now available I'm not going to waste them on useless people anymore.
