Chapter 41 - Hard To Forget
Adrian got desperate for some peace and finally stopped his car at the bar to get some peace for his heart. He felt like a big fool to love Katherine for six years. He hoped that he could salvage his relationship with her before she hurt him again.
Adrian was sitting in the bar, sipping on some whiskey. He looked at the objects around him, he was feeling a little down, a little disappointed.
He missed Katherine and couldn't help but get very depressed when he thought about her. He started to wonder why he loved her all this time. He thought about the time when he first met her. He remembered how they were together, how they loved each other. He remembered how she used to be a very happy person. He remembered how she would be excited about things, she would be smiling.
He remembered when she got the courage to tell him that she loves him. He missed that time in his life and he couldn't help but wonder what happened to her. He remembered the first kiss on a rainy night.
He got mad thinking why she left him and what was the reason that she lost trust in him.
Adrian got a little teary-eyed and he felt like a baby again. He wiped his eyes and sighed. He shook his head and looked at the window. It was almost night and the bar was about to close. He wondered if he could stop thinking about Katherine for a moment.
He talked to himself for a while, he was going to have to stop thinking about her. He needed to consider other things. He needed to stop thinking about Katherine if he wanted his heart to stop hurting. He needed to be strong as he was going to make a different decision
Adrian gulped down some more whiskey and put his hand under his chin as he looked at the window. He was going to have to put Katherine out of his head.
He had done it for the past months. But then she was in his head again. He wondered if there is any way to get her out of his system. He wondered if he could be free from her. Maybe that was impossible, but he needed to try.
He was hoping to get some closure. He looked at his watch and he decided to leave. He knew that if he didn't leave right now, he might be too late. It was almost midnight and he needed to leave before the bar closed.
He wanted to be alone with his thoughts. He thought it was about time he started to be happy again. He would have to be strong, he had to make different decisions.
He wiped his eyes one more time and got up from his seat. As It was late and the place was shutting down. He was the last customer there, everyone had gone home.
He put on his coat and walked out of the bar. He looked at the sky and it was dark. He looked back at the bar and saw that it was just about to close. He sighed and walked towards his car wobbling.

Katherine picked up Sam from preschool. She found him waiting for her with a gloomy face.
" You are late today. " Sam whined.
" I caught up with work in my company. It will not happen from now..." she pleaded, holding her ears with her two hands.
Sam pulled Katherine's hands so that she could be to his height and said, " You are forgiven" and kissed her cheeks with a small smile.
His words made her realize that Little Sam is an exact carbon copy of Adrian. She took him in her arms while remembering how Adrian used to take the opportunity to kiss her. He used to punish her with kisses whenever she was late from her ballet classes ( she used to learn ballet dance during studies) whereas he used to wait for her. He never used to get angry with her and even if he got angry it would last for a few minutes.. Thinking of him, the tears spilled out of her eyes.
