"But I can't let you go!"
Val yelled. And it was silence....this very man has never raised his voice at you in the 10 years you have known him...you were best friends during highschool and fell in love in college moved in together and built your careers , home , and everything together. Everything was perfect...or was it?...only you both knew how you were drifting away, you slowly became a workaholic always working paying little attention to anything or more so on Val. He hated it. He felt invisible. He feared losing you , he dreaded it , ge couldn't let you go not when you embroidered into his life not when he couldn't go to sleep without you in his arms you slowly drifting away felt like him slowly dying and he craved you back he wanted the old you back his love of life...
You were back from a work trip and you saw Val talking to his colleague. You were always more on the jealous or possessive side so a simple conversation somehow ended up rolling into a fight and you were in the alley accusing him , but instead of laughing and cuddling you or kissing you and he calmly explained and you knew he wouldn't cheat but you were confused why was he acting different...if only you had really noticed how you were treating him or how you have been making him feel. He didn't say anything he kept taking deep breaths and tried to convince you but something snapped and you blurted out the words "lets break up then"....
He could practically hear his body go numb his hands go cold that was the last straw. You weren't gonna act like the victim when you were the one making him hurt so much! He was crying... but they were of pure frustration and anger he yelled at you for the first time he was rubbing his chest at the same time as tears streamed down his face and he kept saying how you CANNOT leave or rather he was NEVER letting you go.
