They Regretted It After I Gave Up Chapter 28

Later, Tessa got married.

She married an ordinary man, not Beckett.

She never saw Beckett again.

She had a daughter and named her Nora.

Eleonora. Light.

I knew Tessa never forgot me.

She never forgot the sister she had never really known.

After Beckett was released from prison, he disappeared.

No one knew where he went.

Some said he left the country.

Some said he joined a monastery.

Some said he was already dead.

I didn’t know.

I didn’t follow him, either.

Because I no longer cared.

Hating someone forever is too exhausting.

I was tired enough when I was alive.

I didn’t want to carry it any longer.

Later, I drifted higher and higher, farther and farther from the ground.

The houses shrank below me.

The rivers became thin, silver lines.

Even the mountains no longer seemed so tall.

In the end, I couldn’t see anything at all.

There were only clouds.

I took a deep breath, even though I no longer had lungs.

Then I closed my eyes.

“Mom, Dad, goodbye.”

“Tessa, goodbye.”

“Beckett, goodbye.”

“If there’s another life, I hope we never meet again.”
