Still Losing to You
Three years after the abrupt breakup, Amelia Brooks returned to Harborton, only to run into Elliot Jenkins, the ex-boyfriend she had ruthlessly dumped, on her very first night back.
At the time of their breakup, he had said, “Amelia, you are like rain, like a lake, so hard to cross.” Believing his pride and arrogance would never allow him to look back, she thought that was the end.
But three years later, to her surprise, he was back, relentlessly pursuing her, even showing up at her doorstep.
“Amelia, no matter who you’re with or who you fall in love with, you’re going to give half of yourself to me.”
Through mountains and rivers, through years that passed like fleeting water—yet facing you again, I still fall, defeated.
