Seven Years Together, But Never Forever

Before the wedding, Daniel looked at me with a mix of hesitation and hope. "Can you give me a month?" he asked.

He wanted to try rekindling his relationship with his ex-girlfriend. If he succeeded, it would prove they were meant to be. If he failed, he promised to return, marry me, and leave her in the past forever.

I didn’t argue. Instead, I smiled faintly and replied sincerely, "Go ahead, give it a try. After all, life shouldn’t have regrets, right?"

That night, he drove off, looking relieved, almost happy. Meanwhile, I quietly packed my belongings and called home.
