The Love that Never Really Dies

“Yeah. He kept himself locked up in his room and rarely ate anything when he first got here, so we were really worried about him. But then, all of that changed the moment you arrived today!” Mrs. Hudson explained with a chuckle.

Sasha froze when she heard that.

He did what? Oh, right, how could I forget? He came all the way here precisely because he wanted to run away from the world! I told him I wasn’t afraid of him and swore to myself that I wouldn’t rub salt into his wounds, so how could I let him return to that cruel, hostile world?

“Yeah. We had a little fight, but we’re all good now.”

“See? I knew it! Either way, I’m glad you two managed to work things out. He looks like a really great guy, and you have no idea how much he missed you during your absence!” Mrs. Hudson said what came to mind.

If Sebastian really did lock himself in the room without eating nor drinking, how would she know that he’s missing me?

Noticing the strange look that Sasha was giving her, Mrs. Hudson explained, “He once saw me giving my husband a back massage. After spacing out for a bit, he said his ex-wife had been really nice to him too. That’s you, isn’t it?”

Sasha froze.

Sebastian told them I was really nice to him? I’ve never heard him say that to me before… Wait, does that mean he acknowledges everything I’ve done for him in the past? I mean, I never gave him back massages, but I did write him letters for a good ten years! I’ve dedicated my all into loving him and protecting him since I was eighteen, so I guess I really have been very nice to him!
