Losing you

HIM

"Let's break up."
Who could have known that just three simple words could have hurt so much. I tried not to show my pain for her sake.
"It's because of her isn't it."
I didn't need a clear reply, nor any sort of explanation. The slight nod of her head and small smile was enough. I pulled her into a tight hug. I didn't want to let her go. But I understood how much your friendship meant to her. She loved me. But she didn't want to loose you. Is this what it feels like to be sacrificed for a friendship.
"Promise me you will make her happy."
"Okay."
I didn't know what else to say. I still wasn't interested in you. But I didn't hate you either. I would do anything to make Yeji happy, and I had to keep my promise.
"I promise."
I intertwined my pinky with hers and gave a faint smile. I couldn't show my pain. If at that moment I could look into the future and see what would happen. Would I have held her tight and never let go?
She still didn't tell you did she?
That's why she was breaking up with me.
Happy things don't last forever, same as relationships. Even if you live with the love of your life until you die, you still get separated after death. I guess this was for the better. I still regretted letting her go, until you spoke to me for the first time.

Until I finally realised how much you loved me.
