adding you to the group i tilt my head back forcing the tears to stay where they were So what? Just apologize in the group Say you were only joking and that you don't mind

Lena's crying really hard right now She feels terrible She thinks it's all her fault It felt like a hole had opened in my chest

Letting the cold air pour in So as long as Lena cried I had to bow my head to the people who humiliated me My vision blurred with tears

My voice broke as I interrupted him Ethan We're done Ethan hadn't even heard what I said

On the other end of the line came the rustle of clothing Followed by Lena's muffled sobs It's all my fault Ethan spoke to her gently, with endless patience

Don't cry Clara said she doesn't blame you She was just being too sensitive Come on, wipe your tears

The ceremony's about to start Didn't you want the perfect wedding photos today? After a brief silence, he spoke to me again Go apologize in the group

I don't have time to deal with you today Then, as if he had finally remembered what I'd said earlier Besides, you wouldn't actually walk away from me, would you? Ten years together, he knew exactly how much I had sacrificed.
