You're So Far Away From Me Novels & Stories

“But don’t take too long. Because I won’t stay silent forever and let you stay away from me.” And in the distance, their bond trembled once more, as if in response.

That's why I call him Fatty -in a loving way- because he's overgrown and that makes moving around very hard for me. I sigh and grab my phone. My friends are asking why I didn't stay to talk to them, but they know. I've been distant for months, of course today was not going to be any different. “I’m still here if you need me. Love u,” Remy says. And I know he is, but I don’t want to be around anyone. Not even him. I would just bring a black could to their happy lives. I close my eyes when the left one starts to hurt and I sigh, deciding to get a little nap to recharge.

Done loving a man who could destroy me without even trying. I want to go away. Far from Roman. Far from this world. Far from the girl I was when I first met him.

So as I read the text, I had to stop myself from falling to pieces. "Despite the distance between us, I love you more and more every day. While you may not be next to me right now, my love for you grows because I'm reminded just how much better you make my life and how happy I am when you're here. We'll end this once and for all. I will get you back, regardless of what mountain I need to climb, or ocean I need to cross. Stay safe, we love you."

I booked it two days ago. I wasn't being impulsive as you accused me of. Whenever I see your face on my phone screen, you look so tired and lifeless, especially since school has started. You told me about your job and how your impulsivity of making decisions makes it even harder for you, and I want nothing but to be there with you to cheer you up. I want to give you massages to release the tension on your back. I want to hug you and hear your hardships while I do so. I want to kiss you senselessly until you forget about everything for a while. I want you to be happy all the time.

"How will leaving for Dubai make me safe? You're cruel." He went silent again, stroking my hair gently. "I love you." "What if I stop loving you because you're too far?" I wondered aloud. I knew it wasn't possible but what if it happened? My love for him was still growing. "It doesn't work that way. Being far away from the ones you love strengthens the love. When you miss me, you'll love me more." "I hope so." "I'm certain. I'll create time to talk to you frequently." He promised.

he asked again. "Just me," I replied. I heard him exhale deeply on the other line. "Sorry," he said softly. "Huh? For what?" I asked, furrowing my brow. "For not being able to accompany you. Sorry for being so far away from you," he replied heavily. I took a deep breath before speaking, "Come on, it's not your fault if you're far away from me. So you don't have to apologize," I replied, biting my lower lip. "And you? Is your practice over?"

"Is there something more you need to say?" "No, Felix. I just wanted a break-up," I said as I took a long sigh. "Are you having a hard time with me now that I'm far away?" he asks. "It's so hard for me, I don't think I can handle a long-distance relationship," I said in between my cries. There's another pause, and I can hear him taking deep breaths on the other end of the line. "Fine, Iris. If that's what you want," he says, his voice cold.

Even though I couldn’t see him, I felt the distance growing, like warmth leaving my side. No. No, don’t go. Stay. Please. Not again. But he was already stepping away.

“D-Does any one need a reason to love someone? I-I just do.” For a moment, I thought my words got to him. But instead, he ripped my hand away from him, “It doesn’t matter. If you stay close to me, you’ll get hurt. You need to go far away.” Tears spilled freely down my cheeks now, but I shook my head furiously. “Aren’t you listening? I can’t live without you. I love you!”
