I didn't cry, I didn't scream. I left his office got back into Anna's car and just withdrew.

I understood why everyone hated Max. My soul was tied to his. If I had died, the fabric of fate would have ripped. The tear would have been so destructive and definitive that Max would have been emotionally wrecked. Max would have instantly known the minute it happened. 

He would have been the only one who could have confirmed, with absolute certainty if I had died. 

Max lied and told everyone I had died. That's why they stopped looking for me. Thats why I wasn't saved. That's why I was held for seven years. He took the cowardly way out and let the world bury me so that he could move on. He betrayed me.

I shutdown. I just stopped feeling. All I could see was that simple gold ring around his finger. The shock, too much to comprehend. Too much to absorb. The only thing that was clear was that my dreams were over. I had built them on a false hope.

 I guess I wasn't worth fighting for.

No, I wasn't worth waiting for.
