Our kiss was long and laden with emotions, a silent farewell to everything that could have been. When we separated, Aaron's eyes were full of sadness. "Goodbye, Rebecca," he said, his voice a whisper. "Goodbye, Aaron," I replied, feeling a lump form in my throat. He left, and the door closed with a thud, leaving an emptiness in the room and in my heart. I stood there for a moment, trying to process what had just happened. Loneliness and sadness enveloped me, and I realized I was devastated by the moment we had lived.

But when I woke up, I was still alone, paying for sins I'll never outrun. "Goodbye, Gina. I wish you and Ryan nothing but joy. In the next life, I swear I won't let you down." I shook the envelope, and a necklace fell out. It was the one that held the ashes of our first baby, Jeremy's last tether to the past, but now he had given it to me. Behind me, Ryan called out, asking me to cut the cake. I called back, slipping the letter into my drawer. Then, I fastened the necklace around my neck and walked toward him.

Lawrence called my name, but he couldn't force out the next sentence. It was as if no matter what he said, it would be rejected. As if no matter what he said, he wouldn't get the answer he wanted. "I don't need your flowers. I'm leaving now. Goodbye, Lawrence Schwartz." This was the first time in five years I had seriously called him by his name. I hoped it would also be the last.

What was left for him looked no different from a staged model home.

That's how it was, I said goodbye to him, but that was life, if I wanted to achieve my dreams I would have to put aside certain things, I remembered a phrase that familiarized me "Saying goodbye is also growing up" But in this case it was not only a goodbye, but a "See you later"

Goodbye to everyone, goodbye to having a pathetic life, goodbye to the voices in my head, goodbye to having to pretend to be okay when I'm not, goodbye to being a painful reminder, goodbye to being an asshole, goodbye to Sarah, and lastly, goodbye to Temi. My stomach churned and twisted as my heartbeat pumped faster and faster like it was going to burst. I could feel my eyes starting to close and I let out a scream in agony as a sharp pained pierced and tore into my heart. It slowed down, till it finally stopped beating, my eyes closed as I welcomed the darkness. If anyone could see me, I imagined they took a glimpse at the sad smile that had rested on my face. Goodbye father. Sarah Present

Mark isn't my friend, but I can tolerate him more a little, which will help if I ever let Sam go. Goodbye Father, stand by me, Above the clouds forever free, Always brave, and always true, It's my time to remember you, Goodbye Father, I'm your blood, The waterfall defeated you like a flood, Always in my memory as I sleep, It's time for me to let myself weep, Goodbye Father, remember me, Always my hero, forever free...

he said. “It feels like the part of the work that was always missing.” I wiped my hands on a cloth and crossed to him. “The restaurant feeds people in public. The garden feeds the seasons we can see. This feeds the ones we can’t. The quiet months. The ones that used to feel empty.” He drew me in and kissed my forehead, then my mouth, brief and deliberate. “Then we keep it standing.

Now that the contract has expired, the time has come to let you be happy with the woman you love. I ask for your forgiveness for having been a hindrance in your life; the time has come to leave, and I will quietly step out of your life because I couldn’t bring myself to say goodbye. I never wanted anything but your love, so I waive any compensation. Take care of yourself; from the bottom of my heart, I wish you much happiness. God bless you, Goodbye, Elizabeth
