Late at night, Finn stared at Monica.
All he could hear was Monica saying that she did not love him that much and that she did not want to live because she had depression.
He just… stood there in disbelief. It was as if he had been petrified, and he did not move at all.
He had thought of many reasons for Monica to leave him, but that was the only one he had not thought of. He had always thought that his lack of initiative made Monica feel ignored in the relationship.
He had always thought that the conflict between him and Monica was never about whether they loved each other or not. Their conflict was that he thought he had given Monica the best, but what Monica wanted was not what he thought she wanted.
He kept looking at Monica but did not leave or approach her. He simply watched as she looked back at him.
Was there no more love in her eyes?
Since when did Monica's eyes become so calm?
