Chapter 49 Confrontation 2

• I close my eyes, hoping he would go away. I don’t want to do this….I don’t want to have this conversation with him. I know I owe him so much more than I’m able to give, but I’m not ready. I haven’t been given time to prepare for this.
• Don’t get me wrong….I’ve imagined this a few times. I imagined we would run into each other, and I would have the chance to explain myself. I have to say that reality is very different from the dream. The reality is harsh and hurtful. I no longer want any part of reality; I rather live in the dream world. “I’m not leaving until you answer me.” I close my eyes and let out a breath.
• “Th…the past is the past, Evan. We should leave it there.” What am I doing? Why am I denying him the one thing we both need? Why am I having trouble taking this opportunity to speak?
