Love Began with the First Meeting

"Yes," she replied with a forced smile, but her eyes filled with sadness. "When I fell down, you weren't there," she accused him.

Tears began to pool in her eyes. "Brian, you said when I could not see, you would stay with me. But you were gone. You weren't here," Becky's voice cracked.

Her words crushed his heart and Brian's face crumpled. He looked at Becky's sad face and felt guilty. She was the woman who stayed with him through tough times and the woman he cared for in the past. But now…

He heard her sniffle as she tried to regain her composure. The action only added to her sorrow. Her nose twitched, and tears again began to form in her eyes. "Brian, you… you don't love me anymore, do you?" She needed to be blunt. "If you don't, then I will leave. I will not stubbornly cling to you. And even if I am never able to see for the rest of my life, I won't pester you anymore. But I need to hear you say that you don't love me anymore," Becky said while holding back sobs.

He opened his mouth, but nothing came out. Brian didn't know what to say because Becky's words were embarrassingly close to home. Finally, he managed, "You can't see, and you can't go anywhere!"

Even then, his tone was cold and his manner overbearing. Tears streamed down Becky's face when he said that. She threw herself into Brian's arms and broke down. Her hands clutched at his clothes helplessly. She choked with sobs that were both sorrowful and frightened. "Brian, I don't want to leave you," she pleaded. "Don't leave me alone, please. Please!"

Frowning slightly, Brian held Becky in his arms to console her and gently patted her on the back. Speaking softly but in a voice that was still mesmerizing, he vowed, "Until your eyes recover, I will not leave you."

In between sobs, Becky asked doubtfully, "You promise?"

"Yes!" Brian said comfortingly. In his heart, he was apologizing to the woman, 'Becky, I'm sorry that I can't love you anymore. Please let me help cure your eyes to make it up to you.'

Soon the ward became quiet. There was no other sound except for the occasional sobs from Becky.
