I averted my gaze and sighed, trying to grasp my emotions, which felt different now compared to before, especially when I saw him. Perhaps I was too emotional back then because I was pregnant.
"I don't hate you, Zairon. I was just really angry at what you did, but it's in the past now, and there's no point in holding onto that anger," he nodded, looking straight ahead.
"I... I regret what I did to you, especially when I found out about our baby," a sharp pain pierced my heart. I kept my head down, unable to meet his gaze. "I'm sorry for manipulating you... I was just too desperate."
He took a deep breath. "I don't want to get married, Laurene," he suddenly added.
I met his gaze again, and we locked eyes. "I don't want to get married because I'm afraid of loving someone. I fear that if I love someone, they'll end up like the people I cared about the most. The more I showed that I care, the more they started to hate me, as if I were a nuisance."
