Eddy stood at the door, his heart shattering into pieces as he watched Neema, her eyes glowing with a love so deep—but not for him. His hands trembled as his gaze landed on the engagement ring on her finger. Mark had taken his place. Mark was now where he once stood, and there was no space left for him anymore.
He had once been Neema’s everything. He had once made her happy, loved her, and even broken her—yet when he walked away, he never thought she could love another so soon. “All these years, and you forgot me in just one?” he thought, the weight of regret pressing heavily on his chest. But he had forgotten… he had left Neema in pain, abandoned in the ruins of a broken marriage, while he ran into the arms of another woman. Now, he wanted to believe she had waited for him, but the truth burned him—Neema hadn’t.
He tried to defend himself, to make sense of it all, but Neema’s eyes held firm. “Eddy, when you left, did you expect me to wait for you forever? I’ve moved on, please don’t drag me back.” And that was when he knew—Neema had healed, but he was still a prisoner of his own choices.
Eddy thought him knowing Neema and having the kids by his side would help him win her back just at one talk and some apologies, but alas! No room for such as Neema has already accepted the proposal ring from Mark and forgotten about Eddy.
