The Hardest Thing
Chapter 11
~*~~*~
I ran home and got in my apartment I ran to my room and dived on my bed but something disturbed the softness of the bed
I moved and pulled out a brown envelope I opened it and a CD dropped out along with a letter on the front said don’t
open until you’ve heard the song fair enough I thought and put the CD in my CD player and listened carefully
We both know that I shouldn't be here
This is wrong
And baby it's killing me, it's killing you
Both of us trying to be strong
I've got somewhere else to be
Promises to keep
Someone else who loves me
And trusts me fast asleep
I've made up my mind
There is no turning back
She's been good to me
And she deserves better than that
Chorus:
It's the hardest thing
I'll ever have to do
To look you in the eye
And tell you I don't love you
It's the hardest thing
I'll ever have to lie
To show no emotion
When you start to cry
I can't let you see
What you mean to me
When my hands are tied
And my hearts not free
We're not meant to be
It's the hardest thing
I'll ever had to do
To turn around and walk away
Pretending I don't love you
I know that we'll meet again
Fate has a place and time
So you can get on with your life
I've got to be cruel to be kind
Like Dr. Zhivago
All my love I'll be sending
And you will never know
There can be no happy ending
Chorus
Maybe another time, another day
As much as I want to, I can't stay
(Ooh)
I've made up my mind
There is no turning back
She's been good to me
And she deserves better than that
Chorus
I don't want to live a lie
What can I do
What this doesn’t make sense I thought listening to the song I opened the letter
“Dearthis might not make complete sense except for the line ‘We're not meant to be it's the hardest thing
I'll ever had to do to turn around and walk away pretending I don't love you but I know you like this song and I do love
you with all my heart but I know your heart belongs toand it’ll only keep the right beat if I let you go to be with
him it hurts me a lot to do this but I don’t want to cause you pain I’ll get on with my life and I hope you andare
happy together I’ll always love youand don’t worry I’ve cancelled the wedding officially you don’t have to worry
about a thing accept gettingback love Chad xxXxx”
I smiled slightly and picked up the phone and called
“What is it?” he asked coldly
“I really need you to come to mineplease” I asked
“Is everything ok?” he asked concerned
“It will be when you get here” I replied and hung up waiting for him it wasn’t long before he was at my door
“What is it?” he asked taking me by the shoulders
“Well listen” I said and played the song
“And read”did as I said and I could see the smile forming on his face he put the letter down by his side and I ran
into his arms kissing him like I always wanted to with the love I was allowed to give him without feeling guilty
“Thank you for this gift Chad” I said smiling
“He really ain’t a bad bloke”replied
“But he’ll never come close to you” I said aspicked me up and carried me to my room…
~*~Chad~*~
That was the hardest thing I had to do give her up but I knew I’d be holding her heart down if I didn’t let her go I’ll
learn to love again I wish her the best…
The End
