The Seventh Casing
I lifted my eyes, no love in them and no hate, only a flat, indifferent calm.
"There's no need."
"Once the love is gone, there's no meaning left in making anything up. Dean, I gave you seven chances. I gave way at every step and all it bought me was you tearing apart everything we ever had with your own hands. We’re even. From here on, there's nothing between us."
Every word clear, final, clean, with no room left in it.
I stepped around his frozen frame without another look at him, and turned toward the brightest lights in the room.
