A gentle pat on his back startled him. He turned around, staring at the person who

approached.

Jeremy gave him a look that said ‘follow me’ and started walking away.

As they stepped beyond the boundaries of the quaint farmhouse, Zavier asked, “What

brings you here?”

Jeremy glanced towards the distant cabin, “I couldn’t rest easy knowing Cornelia was

headed to such a secluded spot alone, so I followed discreetly. I won’t intrude on her time

with friends. I just need to know she’s safe.”

Zavier offered a wry smile, “We used to say you were incapable of love, but it turns out

you’re the most loving of us all.”

“Really? Still planning on winning Skyler back?” Jeremy probed.

“Using your words, as long as I know she’s alive and well, that’s enough for me. I can’t

dare to hope she’d return to live a life with me,” Zavier replied.e2

“That’s a good realization,” Jeremy approved.

Zavier looked again towards the lit cabin, where the three friends were surely deep in

conversation. After a long pause, he asked, “Marc, do you think I still have a chance?”

“In my opinion, loving someone isn’t about possession, but about their happiness. If we

can’t provide that happiness, we need the courage to let go and allow them to find it on

their own,” Jeremy advised.

“Remember when you thought you wouldn’t last long and pushed Cornelia away? Was she

happy without you?” Zavier countered.

“Our situations aren’t the same. Think about it for yourself. But remember, love isn’t about

legally binding someone to you, and marriage isn’t a license to hurt,” Jeremy reminded

him.

Marriage wasn’t a license to hurt.

Zavier was hit by the realization that, despite being legally wed to Skyler, he had hurt her

in ways that were inexcusable over the years. Under the guise of love, he had been cruel,

no different from an abuser.

He was seized by a fit of coughing.

Jeremy patted his back, “You should see a doctor.”

Zavier muttered, “Even if I died in front of her, she probably wouldn’t be sad.”

Raising an eyebrow, Jeremy said, “Life is precious. Don’t test anyone with it.”

Zavier chuckled, “You always see right through me. Don’t worry, I won’t pressure her

anymore. Knowing she’s out there, being able to watch her from afar, what more could I

ask for?”

Jeremy’s phone vibrated in his pocket. He pulled it out to find Cornelia calling back. He

answered immediately, “Cornelia.”

Her voice, slightly slurred with sleepiness, came through, “Jeremy, I’ll be home in a couple

of days. Don’t worry about me.”

He nodded, “Alright.”

“Is the little guy with you? I want to hear his voice,” she said.

“It’s way past his bedtime. He’s asleep,” Jeremy replied.

There was a pause before Cornelia said, “Honey…”

A warmth spread through Jeremy, “I’m here.”

“Take care of yourself while I’m gone,” she urged.

He smiled, “Will do.”

“Honey…”

“Yes?”

“I’ve only been away a day and I already miss you so much. I miss your embrace and your

kisses. But you’re not here, what do I do?” she lamented softly.
