"I can't believe you're leaving me." He said, looking directly at me. He tried to reach for my hand. I stood still.    "I know. I'm sorry. But you know this is not right. Nothing is right. What is there left to do or say?"  "Well we'll make it right. I care about you, and I need you. I'll make time for you, and I'll love you like there is tomorrow and tomorrow will always be magical. Just stay and stay forever. Please. I don't know what I'd do without you, love." His voice cracked up; he grasped my hand and held it tight. A tear rolled down his cheek as he tried to smile.  "Oh gosh, I'm so sorry. I-I just have to go." I stuttered and a tear fell on my shirt. Before I release my hand that he held, I put a note inside the hand and left crying. I shut the door and no word was spoken.All Rights Reserved
