Pierce's POV

I'm exhausted, dizzy and sleepy when | got inside Lexi's condo unit. Mom was the one who greeted me. and she

looked worried

| held her shoulders and hugged. "Mom. Where is she?"

"She's still in the bathroom. How's Kelly? I'm sorry. | just couldn't convince Lexi to cout."

| nodded at her. "You can go hnow and rest, mom, I'll handle this."

She nodded. "Okay. Talk to her calmly. Whatever your decision will be, I'll be here to support you."

Clenching my jaws, | nodded again. After mom left, | knocked dn the bathroom.

"Lexi..."

"Pierce?" Her voice was shaky and hesitant.

| took a deep breath. "Cout. Let's talk."

The door swung open and Lexi threw herself at me. She looked so happy but when | pulled her arms from my

neck, her smile slowly faded. "Let's talk about us now.

She smiled again. Her eyes twinkled. "You're here because you chose me, right? Let's get married. | already

chose my wedding dress and your- ""Lexi, | want out."

Her forehead creased. "What?"

| clenched my jaws and sucked my breath as | stared into her eyes. "I'm tired of this, Lexi. I'm sorry."

"What? What?" She screamed. "What are you saying? You can't do this to me. Pierce! | will really kill myself this

time!"

| laughed sarcastically. "So, | was right? This was just your scheme?"

Her lips trembled as she realized what she just said. She slowly shook her head and tried to touch my cheek but |

took a step back and looked at her with anger. "No! No, Pierce. You can't do this to me. You can't leave me!"

Tears rolled down her cheeks. | don't wanna hurt her more. | can't be with her when my heart yearns for Kelly.

This will make the both of us miserable. "I'm sorry, Lexi."

"No, Pierce! No! No! | can't live without you. | can't..."

| shook my head. 1 can't stay with you anymore."

"No!" She burst into tears and tried to reachagain but | took another step back.

"This is my fault," | said. "If my feelings weren't messy, this would never happen to us."

"Pierce, please... Don't I-leave me. I-l won't pull this stunt again. I-l can't live without you. Y-You know how/

| fought for us. You setfree, Pierce. You gaveanother reason to live. If you leave me, what's the point of

weak, helpless and crying. "P-Pierce..."

"You deserve someone better. Someone who will love you the way you deserve."

"No! You're the only one for me....

| shook my head. "No, Lexi. I'm not the one for you. I'm sorry for ruining your life. I'm sorry for hurting you. I'm a

jerk for hurting you like this. It's my fault. I'm sorry. "Pierce!"

so much pain while crying so hard, but I didn't look back.

This is the right thing to do. Letting go is hard, but | know she will get over me. She's just another victim of my

messy feelings. The fault is in me.

there. Scattered in front of a burning house were firemen, trying to control the huge fire that's conquering the

house I left last night.

"The guard said there's a woman and a baby inside that house since the man left last night."

my way.

"Sir, you can't get close. It's dangerous

"Sir, the debris is falling."

"I SAID NO! | NEED TO GET INSIDE AND FIND THEM!"

"NO! NO! THEY'RE STILL INSIDE. | NEED TO SAVE THEM!"
