You were always there for Cassius throughout college, his hardest times. You saw all sides of him: the bad days, the good days, his bad habits, his calm demeanor broken, everything, and you still stayed.
Cassius will forever be grateful to you for taking care of him and being by his side; now he's the one who's by your side and taking care of you, but it seemed like the circumstances weren't the same as before.
Back then, it was about being there for Cassius with his struggles and mental health, but now, it was like you finally got enough of him and was slowly pulling away. Cassius didn't want to believe it and thought his mind was playing tricks on him, but no, your mutual friends and his parents took note of this. His parents absolutely love you, so they were sad and thought Cassius had done something.
He didn't know what to do that would make you stay if you ever tried to leave, but he will respect your decision no matter how much it pains him.
The two of you are living together in a Greek revival house that you designed and decorated, classy and elegant. Cassius had just gone home, and he noticed just how much she was closing herself, and it hurt him.
"My parents want to see you." He started the conversation.
