Chapter 40 - CHAPTER 40: Harsh

I never imagined I would find myself in this situation—Saru wrapped in my arms, our warm bodies touching. I gazed at her pretty face, which was once filled with pain and distress, but now seemed peaceful and calm. However, I knew that Saru had not truly healed from what had happened between us. I wondered if our connection would lead her to fall for me genuinely or if it was merely a fleeting moment of sympathy.

I don't remember when I fell asleep while looking at her, but when I woke up in the morning, I realized Saru was not there. I called out, "Saru, where are you? Saru!" but she didn't reply. I got off the bed and started looking for her, but she wasn't in the room. This made me anxious and worried. I picked up my phone and dialed her number, but she didn't answer.

Then, I suddenly looked out the window. There she was, hugging Abhimanyu. The moment I saw it, I felt as if I had been plunged into darkness; my heart shattered. It took me a moment to process the situation. I opened my messages and saw a text from Saru that said, "Thank you for always being by my side. I think it's time for both of us to take different paths in our lives."

My eyes filled with tears, and my body went numb. But I knew there was nothing I could do. At the same time, I thought this might be for the best. She was going to have the life she always wanted, being with her true love. This made me realize that a boy like me could never be truly loved by someone.
