"Please... I can't lose you too.. Not again.." I can feel my eyes tearing up. I hate crying in front of people.
"I'm sorry, Baby," he looks pained too, "but you know I have to go."
"No..." My voice cracks. I can feel the lump in my throat, now fully formed. It's choking me. I can barely breathe. I'm so broken it physically hurts, yet an overwhelming feeling of numbness is still lingering there.
He just wraps his arms around me while I silently cry into his shoulder. I may never feel this again. I may never be this close to him again. This could be the very last time.
"We... We have to at least t-try.." I can barely speak through this big lump.
"We will, Baby. We will." God, I love him so much. I can't lose him again. The first time already hurt enough.
Silence looms over us, just adding to the pain.
