“Then I’ll help you pack.”

And she did.

When he pulled into the driveway of his little home, his heart was destroyed. He’d never felt this kind of pain before in his life. This was exactly what he’d hoped to avoid, and here it was.

It sucked.

Ivan knew that he’d never come back from this. Losing Blue and hearing her father tear him down was too painful. He’d never recover from what had just happened.

The sad part was they were right.

That’s exactly why he didn’t fight, he didn’t stay and argue, and he didn’t try to convince them.

Everything the man said was the truth, and he couldn’t deny it. He’d been less than her from the start, and being with Blue had been a pipe dream.

Now he had to let go.

He had to set her free.

Heading to his refrigerator, he pulled down a picture his mother had snapped of him and Blue on the porch swing. He took it down and placed it in the garbage.

He couldn’t see her every day and know he’d lost the woman he was supposed to marry. Opening the drawer, he pulled out a box. Before he left, his mother had given him the antique ring that had been his grandmother’s. It was nothing special, but it was delicate, pretty, and reminded him of Blue.

He’d wanted to give it to her that moment, but he knew he had to wait for her parents to meet him.

Then he was going to take her out ring shopping and let her pick out whatever she wanted.

It was one hell of a fantasy.

Only, that was never happening.

Ivan put it back in the drawer and closed it. He couldn’t look at it anymore. Tomorrow, when he got the chance, he’d mail it back to his mother.

She’d understand.

For now, he needed to find a way to numb his heart and soul.

Beer.

He needed a beer.

Opening his refrigerator, he found one and popped the cap off. He chugged it.

Ivan didn’t feel any better.

He felt worse.

Dropping to the floor, he crawled to his garbage, dug into the trash, and found the picture.

Then he held it against his chest.

And mourned.
