Eleanor knew that it was necessary
But knowing it will not change anything. Her possessiveness of me is clear in her eyes. That's why to make her accept my decision, I had to be a scumbag.
"Then you will not change your decision then," Eleanor asked, but her eyes had already lost their light, her expression dim and lifeless.
"I understand." Slowly, she stepped back, her shoulders slumped in defeat, and said quietly, "Do what you must, I won't stand in your way." Her voice was like the words of a person who had given up on life.
Alicia moved to stand beside Eleanor and patted her back gently.
"Don't be sad, I know it hurts. I don't want to share him as well, but Eleanor, we can't always have what we want." She calmly tried to console herself, but Eleanor had no response.
'It seems like it was a hard blow for her,' Alicia thought in worry as she tried to support Eleanor.
I was also worried, but I don't have the luxury to console her now.
