I can feel how painful, heartbreaking, and soul-crushing my emotions are right now. Instead of reacting to what Nathan said, I just stood there, speechless. I wanted to run away from him, hide, crumble, and just cry. But instead, I couldn't do anything but stand there and watch Nathan repeatedly apologize to me. “I'm confused about my feelings, Leah. I love you. I admit that. But I still have some feelings for Isabella, and it's difficult for me to let go of her.” I bit my tongue because every word he uttered felt like a million daggers piercing my heart. Why does he have the audacity to say these words to me? Is he really like that? Selfish? He doesn't even consider how this will affect me. He tightly holds my hands while I, on the other hand, want to let go of him. It's chaotic.
