I love him too much to ask him to leave his family for me. He had tears in his eyes when I left him. He wanted to hold my hand but I didn’t let him. I didn’t want to complicate things for him and for me. It seems highly unlikely but I hope he’ll forget me. The sooner the better. But I could never come back again. Every place in this city is like his ghost spot. Everything will remind me of him.

I don’t know why but I told him the time of my flight. It’s my time to say goodbye.

But there he is, walking down the lane towards my apartment. He probably wants to say goodbye too. That would be the only reason he’s coming this way. I wouldn’t want to get my hopes up.
