Where it all began

"I wished I never met you because if I didn't, we will never be miserable."

When the last syllable slipped past Joaquin's lips, the two of them looked at each other. But this time, there was no hatred in their eyes, but only regret for ever meeting in this lifetime. If only the two of them didn't meet, they wouldn't be just as miserable as they were now. 

Because Joaquin couldn't imagine letting her go ever again and Aries couldn't stomach being with him for another second. The scars they left in each other's heart was way too deep and beyond repair. Yet, he couldn't let her go and chose to embrace this pain. 

He was already miserable, but he would rather have her in this misery. 

If that was not love, Joaquin didn't know what that was. Till death do them part and only death was would truly set them free.
