Love Me Just Once

In the end, loving his beautiful and cold wife, all that was left for Edren was her dead body. “I now hate you too.” Three years of marriage taught him there was a deeper abyss than unrequited love. Time reversed to the past. Meeting Ophelia again, Edren realized. No matter how many times he’s thrown into the abyss, returning to her was his fate. He was a quiet husband. Knowing his limits, never demanding too much. A man Ophelia wouldn’t regret turning her back on. “I love you…….” She never thought she’d say such words to him. Kissing the tear-stained and wounded cheek of her counterpart, Ophelia thought. Did you also ache and yearn like this? “I love you. I should have said it earlier.” To the man who threw a spark into the frozen sea, may all this not be too late.
