The Last Thing He Told Me Amazon Novels & Stories

Alejandro stood there, the man who once filled the space with confidence and charm, now reduced to a shadow holding a coat he no longer needed. “I’m telling you the truth,” he said one last time. Without turning around, Amelia replied, “And I’m telling you goodbye.”

Lennox announced. And that was the last thing I heard from the home I would never see again.

I didn't realize that there were tears in my eyes. "We're going home," I said shakily. "I love you..." That was the last thing he said to me before he passed out completely.

Before my parents died in an accident the last thing my mom told me was that I was born for greatness. I am not sure what greatness they were talking about, all I know is that when it comes to making coffee, I sure am the best at it. “Athena,” my manager called me, motioning me to follow him to his office at the back of the store. “Yes sir,” I said once I was in his office. “The owner of our shop will be using the place later,” he said as he scanned the papers in front of him. “Make sure the last order will be taken at 1 PM and the shop is closed at 2 PM.”

He is physically taller then me, so he just leaned in and kissed my forehead. Okay that's cute. "You look good", I complimented. "You look great ",he replied and we got into my car. "So uhm, what Movie are we seeing?", I asleep. I was so excited to go out with him I completely forgot to ask him which movie we were saying. "Stranger things, Final season", he said. "Oh my God I loved that movie, I gave up on it cuz it took like forever to release the last episode.", I said starting the Engine.

I just never expected Ares' last words. The others also decided to leave to give us space to talk. It was just me and James inside the room now. I looked for James and I found him already at his table. He took a liquor and poured it in his glass. I crossed my arms, waiting for him to speak. “This will be the last time you will talk to him.” I was stunned in my direction when James uttered these words to me. My mouth widened, my heart pounded so fast. “Wait, what? You're telling me to stop talking to Ares?” I mumbled, disbelief evident to my face.

His eyes never left mine. “Can you just get it done and over with?” he muttered through his teeth. “You’re stitching me up too slow. We're going to be here till dawn.” “Just shut up and let me concentrate,” I scoffed. By the time I finished, his breathing had slowed. I wrapped him with gauze, tight and clean. Pressed cold packs to the edges. “I’ll ask you later,” I said quietly. He blinked. “Ask what?” “The last thing you said before you left me back there…at the warehouse… it’s stuck in my head. But I’ll ask you later.”

"It was the worst hot chocolate I've ever had in my life, and I drank the whole thing because you looked so proud of yourself for thinking of it." He laughed, real and unguarded, a sound I hadn't heard directed at me in so long it startled something loose in my chest. "I was proud of myself. I thought I was being smooth." "You were not smooth. You spilled half of it on my shoe walking over." "I did not." "You absolutely did. I still have those shoes. There's a stain on the left one that never came out."

I watched his thoughtful gaze and heavy silence before he spoke, “Amara, the last thing you should worry about is my money. It does not run out. Trust me. This is not suffering at all. And if you think it is. Then fine. I do not mind suffering for you, little one.” He finished, then turned and left. I had nothing to say. I said goodbye in silence. He returned it with a mysterious look, then drove away. The rest of the day dragged painfully slow. I could not stop thinking about his words. Or the burning touch of his fingers. Or his eyes when he looks at me like I am everything. I was sitting on the floor, my hands on the table, trying to understand my homework. Coffee beside me. I promised my

By the way, didn't you have an appointment today? —Yes, I'll be off in two hours. —Then, you should be getting ready, instead of talking to me. Don't worry, I have everything under control. —The last time you said that, I had to deal with 3 trade wars. Because of a poorly manufactured product that didn't even belong to us anymore, yet they were pouring water on us. —True enough, those people had the guts to stand up to the company's management. But as soon as you showed up. They started to back down. What a good memory. He says this last while laughing out loud. —Goodbye Jack. He said that and hung up without giving the man a chance to say goodbye.
