Final Breakup: No. 100 Chapter 28
During my days at the university, I threw myself into studying and competed in an international piano competition. My grades and performance were exceptional, and before long, I'd become something of a name in the arts circle.None of it would have been possible without Ocko's help.After I decided to be with him, I brought him home to meet my parents. The moment my mother saw him, she took a liking to him right away, praising him as the man most suited for me.I blinked, puzzled, and asked why.Her smile deepened as she patted my hand. "You used to be the one always chasing after someone else," she said. "Now someone else is chasing after you—someone who cares for your every joy and sorrow. That's how you know he's the right one."I thought about it and realized she was right. It was always Ocko running toward me, never the other way around.My mother's smile grew brighter, and she urged eagerly, "Find a good time and get engaged already!"I laughed shyly and nodded.Half a ye

After that incident, I heard from some other students that Thor had come down with a severe cold and had been hospitalized.Some of them even egged me on, suggesting I visit him. I snapped at them—clearly, they just wanted drama.After his illness, Thor seemed like a completely different person. He no longer chased after me; instead, he returned to that old, detached version of himself. But his former pride and confidence were gone too—replaced by a quiet, unsettling stillness.Rumor had it that he was suffering from depression.I was stunned. Depression? Really? It didn't seem possible.A week later, I ran into Thor on campus. When his eyes met mine, he looked straight through me and walked past as if I were a stranger.At first, I was surprised. Then I decided it was for the best.'Let's just be strangers,' I thought.Sometimes I'd see him sitting silently on the bleachers, staring blankly in the library, or picking at his food in the cafeteria. Every now and then, his gaze w

Ocko and I were both taken aback. After asking around, we learned that it was Thor who had paid the bill.I was speechless. So now, instead of pestering me in person, he'd resorted to following me around in secret.Ocko frowned, curiosity flickering in his gaze. "He did so much, and you don't feel even a little moved?"I didn't hesitate. "I'm not that stupid."He couldn't help but laugh, his eyes soft with quiet concern. "Good. I was worried you might go soft on him again."I shook my head firmly. "Never."Relief washed over his face.A woman's intuition rarely lies—I could feel Ocko's care for me. He looked after me, guided me, comforted me, and sometimes… he stirred something in me I couldn't quite name.But he never said it aloud, and neither did I.Some things are best left to unfold naturally.When I returned to the dorm, Ocko handed me a small box.I opened it, puzzled—and found a music score inside. The cover bore my photo.He took a deep breath, as if summoning cour

On a quiet park bench, I sat beside Ocko. I let the words spill out—everything about my past with Thor, all those years of love, heartbreak, and regret.When I finished, Ocko sighed. "He's not worth looking back for."I curved my lips into a faint smile, agreeing silently.He didn't say anything more. Instead, he reached into his coat and pulled out a small box. Inside rested a flawless slice of tiramisu."I know you like this," he said with a gentle smile. "Try it."He remembered.The simple gesture stirred something in me. I took the dessert from him and began eating, smiling without realizing it.Ocko watched me the entire time. There was no pressure, no demand—just warmth.I knew how good he was to me, how patient. But I couldn't give him anything back—not yet. Sometimes, the heart takes longer than we'd like to open again. We both understood that, though neither of us said it aloud.The next day, the university held its annual club showcase. As a member of the piano clu

My voice came out calm, but beneath it lay the quiet edge of something unforgiving."It's over, Thor. Let me go… and let yourself go too."I rolled down the window and scattered the torn scraps of his letters into the wind. His face turned ghostly pale. "Do you have to be this cruel to me?"I met his gaze. "Weren't you cruel to me first?"Grief clung to him like a shadow, the pain in his eyes so raw it almost made me pity him."I've already admitted my mistakes," he said hoarsely. "Can't you give me one last chance to make things right?"I gave a short, bitter laugh and pointed at the fluttering paper outside."My heart is like those scraps—once it's shattered, you can't piece it back together. Even if you tried, the cracks would still remain. No matter what you do, it'll never be whole again."That was the longest conversation I'd had with him in a long time. But this time, I wanted to make sure he understood."Thor, I gave you countless chances. I kept hoping you'd turn ba

I lost my temper when Thor wouldn't listen. I snapped, "You bastard, wake up!"He froze, stunned, looking at me as if I'd said something impossible. In all the years we'd argued and threatened breakups, I'd never called him names. Now I did—on purpose—so he would finally let go."Thor, listen to me. I'm done with you. I've given up. I don't want you."The blow hit him like a physical strike. He sagged into himself, the color draining from his face; the confidence and light that had once defined him crumpled away. I'd lost count of how many times I'd pushed him away, stepped back, tried to leave—yet he still hadn't understood. I felt exhausted.He calmed himself, loosened his grasp on my arms, sat up a little straighter, and spoke in a low, contrite voice."Aisha… can we talk? Just talk. Afterwards, I'll let you go."I tried to open the car door again—still locked—and finally relented, if only to end the scene. He drew a long breath and let the confession spill out, each sentence
