Yasmine.
Nicholas stoppedin front of the car. ‘Can't you sparejust half an hour?"
The wind was stronger today, and my words carried a coldness as | spoke.
"I think you should make the most of your tand spend it with Tabitha. You don't have much tto bond with
her, and | left her at Coral Villa only because she doesn't reject you. Once I'm done tonight, I'll bring her home."
Nicholas's lips tightened until they were pale. He was silent for a long tbefore he finally spoke. "I saved you.
Can | ask for something in return?"
| lowered my eyes, keeping my tone calm. 'Of course. No matter what, I'm grateful for what you did. If not for
you, I'm not sure what would've happened.”
"There are things between us that we never cleared up. | have so many questions. If we could resolve them,
would it be possible for us to get back together?"
| wanted to laugh, but my gaze remained empty as | stared at something in the distance. "That's not just one
request, and they're all too hard to fulfill."
| couldn't help but think he was being unreasonable.

were gone.
Nicholas opened his mouth but said nothing. His expression was etched with despair. "I'm sorry."
| bent down and climbed into the car. Just before closing the door, | smiled at him. "It's alright. Cfind me
when you're sure of your answer."
Although I had been foolish during those four years, | was happy in my own way.
But that didn't mean | wanted no explanation from him. How could we start over? He couldn't even handle
memories of the most painful tin my life.
His figure grew smaller and smaller in my rearview mirror until it disappeared.
