"I ... No.

- Okay, that's all I wanted to know.

- Are you finally going to stop hoping? He told me

- Yes. I really wish you to be happy with her Brad, she looks great.

- What will you do now ?

- Move on ? I smiled thinly.

- With Tristan? He asked

- I don't know. But if I keep in touch with the guys we risk being led to meet again so I would understand if you don't want ...

- I'm not going to forbid you to talk to them Mia

- Thank you...

- It will make me weird you know... He told me

- What are you talking about ?

- If you date Tristan

- Brad, moving on doesn't necessarily mean dating someone else

- I know ... you know what, I think it would be hard to see you again often. You are part of my past and I know we cannot be friends. So maybe we need to avoid each other.

- Brad...

- Please Mia ... If there is one last thing you can do for me is to get out of my life ... We were unhappy together

- I was happy with you ...

- Well not me ... I was not satisfied with you whereas with Julia I am

- How can you say that ...

- You have to move on. I'm saying this for you... He told me, staring at me

- Don't pretend to think about my condition now

- You can't blame me. Your actions have spawned everything that is falling on you right now. He looked up at the sky. I gave everything in this relationship. I really wanted it to work. I thought I would end my life with you. But life has decided otherwise

- Brad...

- You're the one who fucked up while I was waiting for you. In the end I started my life over and you can't turn the page. Life may not be so bad after all

- You are the one who kept my head above water ...

- And you are the one who made me sink ... Tears appeared in the corners of my eyes following his words. Look, I don't want you to cry ... The last time we discussed this, we ended up hating each other. I don't want to get angry tonight. I just wanted to be honest about my feelings. He told me calmly

- Don't ask me to leave you ... I don't want to do it again ...

- Mia... Despite all that, you're important to me, I could never live my life normally if you're in it. You have a too important place...

- Well. So ask me not to try to get you back and get out of your life and I would do. I said with the deepest hope that he contradicts me. A silence settled between us then he opened his mouth

- I want you to stop trying to get me back and get out of my life. He said staring at me "

His sentence took a while to reach my brain, but when It did, I took my heels that I had removed earlier and turned my back on Brad to go to a taxi outside the room. It was his decision and I couldn't change that. I got into the car without even turning around to look at it, it was the last time I would see him for a while.
