The Last Time I Loved Him (Autumn and Ryan)

When Ryan called, I told him I was having dinner at his uncle James's house.

He begged to come along.

I refused.

A hint of jealousy crept into Ryan's voice:

"Baby, I want to come with you!"

"Just thinking about how you used to have feelings for that old man makes me nervous!"

"Please, honey, let me join you?"

"Maybe next time... I have to go, he's here to pick me up."

"Fine, fine, but knowing you're having dinner with him makes me so jealous."

I smiled, though it was tinged with bitterness and tears.

"Ryan, I don't go back to people who've hurt me before!"

Whether it was James... or him.

Though he knew I meant James, Ryan's heart skipped a beat, sudden panic gripping him.noveldrama

After a moment of silence, he rushed to speak, as if unable to accept the possibility. "Autumn, don't worry, we'll be together forever. I swear! I can't live without you. Like I said. in our vows for richer or poorer, in sickness and in health, I'll love you forever." But his words only stabbed at my heart.

He claimed he couldn't live without me, yet he still cheated.....

Over the phone, he tried telling funny stories to cheer me up.

I listened in silence.

"Autumn, are you upset? Did I do something wrong?" he probed carefully.

"No," I finally spoke. "Just watched a movie with a sad ending.

Ryan exhaled in relief, jumping to change the subject. "Don't watch those kinds of movies

alone anymore. Wait for me to come home, we'll watch together."

Psmiled, gazing silently into the distance without answering.

The future?

We had no future left.
