When There Is Nothing Left But Love

Both of us took a few sips before I said, “You should build your career here in J City if you have the chance. Everyone’s here so someone could take care of you in the future.”

No matter how many people came and went into a person’s life, there would only be a few friends who would stay by their side. If they were separated for too long, then the bond would be gone forever.

He gulped down the rest of it and it was obvious that he was only doing it because of his bad mood.

“We’ll see in the future. I’m quite envious of your friendship with Macy. Both of you wouldn’t separate no matter what. Even though you have no family now, both of you still have someone loyal by your sides.”

Macy and I weren’t just simple friends anymore. We were each other’s only family now.

The wine we were drinking was quite strong so I stopped after taking a few sips. I started to get worried when Jackson finished a whole bottle after a while. “That’s enough! This wine is strong.”

His cheeks were tinted red, seemingly tipsy already. He then reached out to open up the other bottle. However, his voice was still clear when he said, “It’ll be fine as long as it doesn’t kill me. I doubt there would be anyone who cares if I die anyway!”

With that said, he started to gulp down the wine. His eyes reddened as he spoke, “Humans are ridiculous beings. They’d throw insults and humiliate you when they don’t need you. Yet, when you’re of use to them, they’d come and beg like a pathetic dog. How ridiculous is that?”

I couldn’t understand what he was saying and could only listen silently as I didn’t know what to say.

Macy, however, had already woken up and she said while lying on the couch, “Did your family in K City ask you to go back?”

Her words were obviously directed at Jackson. He narrowed his reddened eyes and nodded. “They’re all a family of greedy and ruthless monsters. They forced my mom to death and now they want me to cure that sick bastard. What a joke!”
