"Why...I am very sure of my feelings for you and I am sure you like me too...please give us a chance" he sounded desperate but she had to act strong in front of him. "I trust you but I don't trust my fate," she said and walked away...breaking him, his heart into million pieces. Only if he knew how it took all her willpower to not look back and run in his arms and say soothing words to him...to express her feelings for him but she had to walk away. Scene #2 "I shouldn't have given up on her" Akash said, sighing and a tear slipped his eyes which he quickly wiped away. "You tried your best, Akash" Sid said and Akash looked at him. "But I didn't try enough," Akash said and Sid looked away. "If she decides to leave me, I'll let her go," Akash said.

This book is based on my favorite song by Ann Marie, Unlove You. I chose this title because I felt really inspired by her song. It's like all of her songs tell a story and I wanted to tell my version of her song. I feel a similar way in her song as she do as in still love him even though he put me through hell. If you listen to the song you will know what I mean. Her song is really dope and she's the star in my book. This is only my 2nd book and I started writing this book before I even finished my first one. I want to keep it going and no this book doesn't have anything to do with my 1st book "Jayce & Dreka" but this book may have a second book let's find out. This book takes place in Savannah, Georgia.
