Quiet Goodbyes, A Love Without Tomorrow の小説・ストーリー

"I won't let you waste your life on me." He reached out, cradling my face, his touch warm, unbearable. "You're what I need, Leah. Don't you see?" I shut my eyes, letting myself feel it - just for a second - before stepping back. "I'm sorry." His hands fell, empty. "So this is goodbye?" I nodded, the weight settling in. "Yeah. It's better this way." He looked away, defeated. "I don't know if I can take that."

"We're not going out at all. This was one step, one small good-bye before we don't have to say good-bye ever again. Right? That's the plan." "That's the plan, Mia." I brushed a kiss over her lips. "Doesn't make it easier. Doesn't mean it doesn't feel like that path isn't way too fucking long right now. Doesn't mean I don't wish it could be different, and the good-byes were over forever." "They will be, baby." Quinn framed my face with her hands, and her green eyes were serene and certain. "One day, one day soon, all the good-byes will be in our past. And then you'll be stuck with me forever."

Tomorrow, we begin anew, a new chapter has been turned in both our lives and we are more than ready to imprint our stories as we find our place while sharing this unbreakable bond that we have. Our love is pure. Our love is true and beautiful. No one can tell us otherwise. Until we begin to mark our next chapter...I bid you all Goodbye!

He betrayed you, and he failed me, too. [If one day he truly repents, would you be willing to give him another chance? [I ask not for an answer. I only wonder… [Would you still be willing to believe in love, one more time?] I stood frozen for a long time as I held the letter in my hands. Only when night fell did I whisper to the empty room: “I’m willing to give myself another chance, but not him.” This time, I finally understood— Letting go didn’t mean we would never meet again.

"If Eleanor chose to leave, it just means she never really loved you. Someone who truly loves you wouldn't abandon you like that." Harrison snapped his head up, his eyes bloodshot and harsh. "Get away from me." Winona was startled by the look in his eyes, but she forced a smile and tried her best to stay composed. "I know you're hurting, but the person who stays is the one who really cares. I'll always be here for you, unlike someone who can leave without hesitation." "I said, get away from me!" His voice grew harsher as he surged to his feet. He looked down at her. "Stop hovering around me. It's irritating!"

"Gisselle! Gisselle! Darryl!" Kyson pushed open doors, checking room after room, but saw no signs of us. Darryl and I were really gone without even saying goodbye. Kyson sank onto the couch, his mind a turbulent mess of conflicting emotions. This was the silence he had always craved, yet he couldn't understand why his heart wouldn't settle. Was it that he had grown used to having us around in just a few days? But wasn't Jodie the one he loved?

It felt like riding a time machine, traveling through the rain back to my childhood, leaving behind the tears and heartbreak of the past few days. Before I knew it, we had arrived at the hotel. I unbuckled my seatbelt and thanked him, “Thanks for driving me back tonight.” Ethan turned to look at me. “No need to thank me. Talking with you has been fun.” His gaze lingered on me, carrying a hint of melancholy. As I opened the car door to leave, I hesitated for a moment. “Do you want to come up to my room for a cup of coffee?” “Sure!” he replied without hesitation.

"Good." The End.

Madeline stared at Tristan, who was hesitating while trying to speak to her, and said slowly, "I don't hate you anymore. I haven't, in a long time." Tristan was shocked. He didn't expect her to say such a thing. Had she truly forgiven him for good? But Tristan's joy was very short-lived. Madeline's next words sent him right off the cliff into the depths of despair. "You're just a stranger who doesn't matter to me anymore. Naturally, I wouldn't reserve any strong emotions toward you. "And as for the things in the past, I've already forgotten about them. I'm not the kind to hold grudges."

The uproar from the crowd grew louder and louder. Hayden's hesitant expression gradually turned firm. Just then, Ethan took out the divorce papers he had prepared earlier and threw them in my face. "Sign it! I don't have a wife like you! Your actions today make you unworthy of the Blackwood family! From now on, you and I have nothing to do with each other! Your parents treated me like their own son while they were alive. I'll handle their funerals. You don't need to worry about it!"
