Ethan
"Maya, let’s break up."
I looked at Maya, my girlfriend, and said this.
I knew she would be upset, but I thought this was the best choice.
We were too different.
She was the daughter of a farmer.
I was from a wealthy family.
From the beginning, I knew it would be difficult, but I still couldn’t help myself from falling for her.
However, now that I’ve thought about it carefully, I really think we should just break up.
It’s better for her.
Otherwise, if my family finds out about our relationship, you know what will happen.
Maya looked at me.
At first, she thought I was joking and didn’t take my words seriously.
But when she saw my expression, she finally realized that I was serious.
She grabbed my arm.
"Ethan, what’s wrong? Did I do something wrong?"
Seeing her anxious look, I wanted to take back what I just said.
But I knew that I couldn’t.
I gently removed her hand.
"It’s not you, Maya. It’s our differences."
I repeated softly.
She looked at me, hoping to see a glimmer of hope in my eyes.
But I knew that I had to be firm.
This was the best choice for both of us.
She nodded slowly and let go of my arm.
Her grip loosened, and she took a step back.
The weight of my decision settled between us like a heavy fog.
Later that evening, I met Meiyi at a quiet café.
She listened intently as I explained the situation, her expression thoughtful.
"I’ll help you," she said finally, her voice steady.
We discussed the plan over coffee, deciding to attend an upcoming family event together.
Maya's voice interrupted my thoughts, her tone a mix of confusion and hurt.
"You're going with Meiyi to your family's event? Ethan, I thought you said it was over between us because of them."
I hesitated, knowing this was the moment to reveal the truth.
I stood in the dimly lit café, Maya's searching eyes locked on mine.
Her presence was unexpected, and the tension between us crackled like a live wire.
"Maya, I'm sorry," I began, my voice steady but firm.
"Meiyi is just helping me face my family. It's still over between us."
Her expression shifted from confusion to a mix of understanding and pain.
She nodded slowly, her hands clenched at her sides.
Meiyi watched silently from our table, her gaze flickering between us.
Maya turned and walked away, leaving a silence that echoed louder than any words.
