"You're leaving?" I asked quietly.

"What do you think? Clearly you have better things to do," was his response. He turned to look at me, but I wouldn't meet his eyes.

"Do you really want this? Us? he asked, face hard.

"I do, it's just.. you wouldn't understand Camrin, it's-"

"You've never given me a chance to understand what's going on with you. I'm not sure if I can trust you anymore. You've lied to me repeatedly and continue to make lame excuses for your behavior. If you say you want this, then show me that you do or else let's just end things".

I whinced. His words stung like lashes.

"You want to end things?' I asked softly.

"Only if you want to. Niya you of all people should know that I don't like playing games with my heart. "

I didn't respond and silence stretched between us. I didn't want to end things with Camrin, but what choice did I have? He was right. Love demonstrated only with words isn't really love. Love is action and clearly my actions didn't portray that.
