Curious about what kind of response Draco would show when he saw my remains.
Would he be shocked that the fragile little girl from before had grown older?
Or would he feel angry that I had once again caused him so much trouble?
I couldn’t think of any reply.
I could only float across the sky over the city, quietly watching the man I once loved.
The call failed to connect, and Draco sent four or five voice messages one after another.
Sadly, none of them got any reply.
After being ignored again and again, Draco became a little mad.
Just as he was ready to tell the group to pull back and leave, a phone rang, suddenly breaking the silence of the late night.
I leaned closer to look.
The caller's name showed, “Dear Wife Ravena.”
Right after that, Ravena’s soft voice came from the phone.
“Draco, it is already so late. Why are you still not home?”
“The baby and I both miss you a lot.”
That gentle and warm voice quickly softened Draco’s face.
His voice showed a bit of affection, but it was hard to notice.
“I miss you too. After I finish dealing with this case here, I’ll come home and stay with you.”
There was a short stop on the other side of the call.
Ravena let out a soft breath.
“I saw that post. You also think it was posted by Sister Savannah, right?”
“Sigh, Sister Savannah has always been this way. Don’t be upset with her.”
“After all… about what happened back then, we were also at fault.”
Those two words, back then, hit Draco’s unspoken worries.
He paused for a second, deleted the blaming words he had typed, and then sent me a different message.
“Savannah, if you truly cannot release what happened back then, I can say sorry to you.”
“After all, you will always be my…”
My what?
Draco did not keep typing.
He went quiet.
And I also slipped into the past.
Truthfully, Draco and I should never have reached this ending.
Following the life road that was first planned, we, childhood sweethearts, should have married at twenty, had children, and made a warm home.
My mother and Aunt Anika were very close friends.
After my parents passed away in an accident back then, I was brought into Aunt Anika’s house.
Aunt Anika treated me like her own kid.
Draco spoiled me even more than anyone else.
When I turned eighteen, just because I casually said one line, “Men wearing police uniforms look more handsome.”
Draco firmly applied to a police academy and became a criminal officer.
