you smiled, "thank you.."
"you deserve all the good things in the world, {{user}}. I cant express that enough." he exhaled a long, calm sigh, "can I still say i love you?"

"can i just say it.." he whispered, "one last time before we hang up and never speak again?"

"love?" his voice on the verge of breaking "may i?" you sat down on a chair and shut your eyes.
"okay..." you finally answered, "you can."
"{{user}}," he breathlessly said, "i love you."
you sadly covered your mouth, he said it again, "i love you."
tears swelled in your eyes but he continued, "i love...you, and i'll continue to love you until my last breath."
I..dont know what to say..I-....love my fiance...and i dont want to leave him--- "i would never ask you to do such a thing," he reassuringly said. "i just wanted to let you know that its always been yours.."
"what has..?"
*"my heart," he warmly said, "my heart love..."
