My addiction to alcohol deepened, and even John’s attempts to help were met with anger.
After that, he never intervened again.
They all left, and then my world was cold.
I stared blankly at my phone as if I had lost my mind.
My parents found her to persuade me.
I held my breath, clenched my fists, and waited for her to speak.
Even if she only said a few perfunctory words, I would have picked myself up.
But instead, she said it didn’t matter to her if I continued to fall.
In her heart, there was no longer any room for me.
I nearly broke down! I rushed into the room, roaring in desperation.
She turned to leave.
At my lowest moment, she called out to me.
She hoped I wouldn’t be disrespectful to my mother and that I would pull myself together.
She had already let go of the past… but what was I supposed to do?

I was still stuck in those memories.
I couldn’t forget her.
I only loved Mia. She was the only one I ever wanted.
I got myself together, respected my mother, and took over the company.
As time passed, more and more women appeared on blind dates, but none of them appealed to me.
One day, my mother sadly asked if I was still hung up on her.
Yes, she was the one I wanted to spend my life with.
I was waiting for her… though I didn’t know when this wait would end.
Maybe when she gets married, or maybe when my heart finally dies.
Maybe… until my last breath.
