Too Late

"But... I can't. We can't be anymore." Just as he said that a single tear slipped down his cheek. He quickly wiped it away.

"What..? What happened? Did I do something?" We were so happy just now.

"No. You didn't do anything."

"Why?" I dare not let a single tear slide out. I'm not gonna look weak in front of him.

He looked up at the sky for a moment then looked back at me. "I'm... I'm sorry." With that, he turned around and left me standing there. Got in his car and drove away.
