“I didn’t ask what you wanted.” I close my eyes. I never asked her what she wanted. And that was my fatal mistake. I never asked. If I’d asked… If that day, before pancakes… If I’d asked her and she’d told me, we could have stopped it then. It. Us. I tip my head back and breathe. What’s that bullshit saying? It’s better to have loved and lost… I don’t think so. Whoever said that is full of shit. Whoever said that never really loved someone.
