Klaeb knew before she told him. And truth be told, he wasn't surprised in the least.Something had been bothering Laeran for months. In fact, it was a relief to finally have it said. Their union was over. He didn't want this, but she did, and there could be no union if she did not want one. "And this is what your heart truly wants my dear? The end of us?"
She had the courtesy to at least look sad.
"Yes Klaeb, it is. And I am so sorry it has come to this, but I just don't love you anymore."
"And how do you want me to react to this my dear Laeran? I still love you very much. This is not fair to me! I demand to know why it has come to this. You owe me that much."
"Such passion, such desire, dear Klaeb, where was this fire when it would have helped? It is far too late to save "us" now. So, please, save yourself the aggravation and just accept it. I haven't loved you for months. I just didn't know how to tell you."
"Well, you have certainly figured out how."
"I truly am sorry Klaeb, but I could not bear to live like this any longer."
