"Do you still like me?"

| glanced at Leo's flushed face and the slight moisture in his eyes before quietly answering, "Yes."

He froze for a moment, then, as if grasping at hope, he reached out and grabbed my shoulders. "If you still like

me, can we get back together?"

| shook my head. "I do still like you, Leo, but it's not the skind of thing anymore."

"Why? Please, tell me." His voice cracked with desperation.

"I will give you everything! Luna's no longer with the company. | even went back hto get our household

registration book. We can get married now, buy a bigger house —I'l even set up a room just for your paintings. |

can help you start your own brand..."

He still didn't get it; I've found something more important to love- myself.

As he spoke, it remindedof how he used to listen to my plans, weaving beautiful dreams. But now, those

"I don't need any of it anymore."

"Leo, stop being unreasonable."

"You're part of my past now."

My future doesn't include you. It's tto move on for both of us.
