Clearly, Tyler had practiced more than one song and was trying his best to win Vicky’s favor.
Vicky had grown accustomed to him being forceful, and his sudden act of kindness merely pushed her deeper into sorrow.
Don’t be so nice to me,’ she thought. Tm not worth it.’
She desperately wished she could throw herself into his arms, name a few songs that she knew he could not have practiced just to tease him, and force him to think of other ways to cheer her up. She wished they could go back to how things were in the past, but that would be impossible.
“It’s fine.” Vicky remained expressionless. “It’s getting late, so I’m going home.”
Tyler stared at her in silence, his gaze lingering.
When Vicky noticed Tyler was not saying anything, she turned to leave.
Suddenly, Tyler pulled her into a tight embrace from behind.” Don’t go.” His lips brushed against her ear, his voice low and pleading. “Vicky, please don’t go.”
Vicky remained silent for a few seconds before she coldly uttered, “Let go.”
The familiar sense of unease and panic surged within Tyler again. It was a feeling of losing something, and he had experienced it once five years ago.
After their initial breakup, he told himself he would not make a fool of himself again. He vowed to resent Vicky and never to love her again, but what he did not realize was that resentment would not exist without love.
Tyler held her tightly as if he wanted to meld her into his very essence. He felt lost, his voice carrying a desperate explanation. “There’s really nothing between me and that woman. If you don’t believe me, I can call her—”
“I’m not misunderstanding anything,” Vicky interjected.” Tyler, misunderstandings have never been responsible for pulling us apart.”
Tyler tensed. Of course, he was more aware of this fact than anyone else, but he simply could not let go. Allowing her to leave was more agonizing than his own demise.
Her behavior mirrored what he experienced five years ago.
Back then, he could accuse her of giving up on him so easily and lock her up as if it was his right, but he could no longer use the same excuse.
He held her as if his life depended on it. Alas, it felt like she was slipping his grasp.
“Vicky, what do I need to do for you to stay?” Tyler asked as his lips quivered.
Vicky closed her eyes. “I can’t be certain whether your feelings for me are because of your illness.” She turned her head slightly, meeting his deep gaze calmly. “You have always taken the lead in our relationship, and that’s not fair for me. You should know that this can never lead to lasting connection, so I want things to be fair and square.”
Tyler looked at her intently. “What would you like to do?”
Vicky smiled gently. “When I had an accident, you hypnotized me to forget everything. For the sake of fairness, you should undergo hypnosis too. If you forget about me and still fall in love with me after that, I’ll believe that your feelings are genuine and stay with you—”
Vicky’s words were cut off by the man’s furious interruption.
