“Do you still have feelings for him?” Landon asked.
I thought about it seriously. “I’d be lying if I said I didn’t feel anything at all. After all, it’s been so many years.”
Landon suddenly bit me lightly. “Don’t say anything else, Christine.”
I said, “Let me finish. If you ask me if I feel reluctance or regret, it’s not that either.”
I gently touched his face. “Leaving him didn’t make me feel that much pain, so I might have stopped loving him a long time ago, I might even have been preparing myself for the breakup the moment he started losing interest in this relationship.”
“I won’t,” Landon suddenly said.
“What?” I asked.
“I won’t lose interest. I won’t be half–hearted. I won’t make you cry or hurt you.” Landon held me tighter and tighter, and in the end, he kissed me again. “Christine, be with me.”

But I didn’t respond to his kiss.
In the end, I even pushed him away. “Landon, I’m sorry.”
“Why are you sorry?” Landon looked down at me with reddened eyes.
“It’s my problem,” I said as I avoided his gaze. “I don’t want to be in a relationship anymore.”
