The Love We Left Behind Novels & Stories

At my nephew's college celebration, I ran into my ex-fiancée, whom I hadn't seen in five years. She was dressed to the nines, surrounded by our former classmates. The moment Willow Radcliff saw me, her eyes went red. "You were alive this whole time, Orson. Why didn't you come back to me?" I looked away, wanting to leave.

Reo never expected if his love would be reciprocated so quickly.

And from the corner of them, i watched as she walked up to her bags. “Now i leave, Wu. Now i leave forever” She said and i felt my heart skip nearly two beats. “Now i walk and i— i will look back.

She didn’t know if she would return if she left the next morning, or if this was truly goodbye, but in that moment, she understood the depth of what she was leaving behind. The moon hung high in the sky, a silent witness to the parting of two souls, bound by love and duty, yet torn apart by forces they couldn’t control. And as the first light of dawn began to break, they remained in their separate worlds, each carrying the weight of a love they had been forced to leave behind.
