• In the following days, we spoke little and didn't see each other due to various reasons. He was a gentleman and told me that he wanted to talk to me, but only when we both had time and a clear mind to do so. Perhaps he thought that I hadn't fully recovered from my discomfort yet. He only saw me in a sad and worried state. Sometimes he would call just to check on me, sending me simple messages.
• "Ady... I'm just caught up in some things... but I promise we'll see each other soon," he says over the phone, confirming all my fears. Secretly, I fear that he thinks poorly of me, that I am a burden, that he's reconsidered our agreement, that he wants to separate from me. I mean, he has the right to do so, we can change our decisions.
• "Do you want us to end our deal?" I ask, almost afraid.
