Can we be together now? J.J

"Can we be together now?" He asked, barely above a whisper.

"I um," I whispered. "We can't be together. I have someone else."

"But what about the promise we made a year ago? I waited one year for you, but did you wait for me?" He asked.

"The promise was: During the one year period, we'll try to find other people. If we didn't, we would come back to each other." I explained. "I found someone. You had one year, and you wasted it."

"I didn't find anyone. I only like you." He replied.

"I'm sorry. I have to go." I mumbled before leaving him standing alone, speechless.

I love you, but I can't have you.
