Shadows of Destiny

I took a deep breath and turned around to see Leo approaching.

Avery chuckled, knowing I had been avoiding Leo.

“We faced ours.

It is time for you to face yours,” Linda said, laughing at me, and before I responded, she and Avery walked away giggling.

They were just naughty.

“Hey,” Leo said softly when he approached me.

“Hey,” I replied, and he sighed.

“Do you mind us talking in the lounge? I promise I won’t take too much of your time,” He said, and I looked at him.

There was a time he did not need permission to talk to me at all.

Everything had changed, and my heart had left him behind.

“Sure,” I said and led him to Sylvester’s lounge.

“Sylvester said we can be friends,” He said while we walked, and I frowned and looked at Leo.

“He did?” I asked, and he nodded.

“Yes.

He said we had a history together, and he did not want to erase that.

Moreover, he trusts you,” he said, and I smiled, knowing that Sylvester could say something like that.

We entered the lounge and went to sit on the couch.

Leo sat on the couch next to mine so he was close.

There was an awkward silence between us, and he broke it with a sigh.

“Tamia,” he said, his voice shaking and broken.

“I am sorry,” He apologised, and I shook my head, wanting to stop him, but he covered my mouth with his palm gently, and I looked into his eyes.

They were pleading with me to let him speak, so I relaxed, and he withdrew his hand gently.

“I fucked up.

I had just one thing to do, and I fucked up,” he said with misty eyes.

“I threw everything we had away on that Balcony that day.

I should have remained by your side, and I should have let her go, but I was weak and stupid.

I guess deep down, I thought you would always be with me.

I thought you would stay with me no matter what.

I thought I could handle it.

My twisted mind thought it would be okay.

The hurt in your eyes when I told you she was pregnant let me know I failed.

I threw it all away.

Love, life and peace.

I threw it all away.
