171 We Don't Need You

2019, August.

Sniffles, Luna wipe her tears with the back of her palm. "There, I've told you everything, do you believe me now?"

Raymond was totally in shock and still silent. He did not reply to her question, instead, he grabs her forearm. "I'm sorry." He pulls her into his embrace and whispers to her. "It took me so long to realize it and I've..hurt you so many times. I'm sorry."

Luna pushes his body and looked at his eyes, "You promise to let us go, so, I beg of you..let us go. I'll sign the divorce paper but Alex mine. I raise him alone all this time and we…" She stops her sentence before she averts her eyes and hoarsely said, "We don't need you in our life."

It's hurt Raymond deeply when Luna says that. He releases her from the hug and he looks so dispirited. His eyes formed a pool of tears that only wait for time to roll down. "Will you be happy without me?" He asked, trying to not sound so broken right now.
