Mercy Chapter 1

"Is it true that not everyone can be happy at the same time?" I dropped my shoulders.
"I just want to hold her, love her, and kiss her. I took that away from her because I was afraid to deal with her pain." I cried as Kaiden just looked at me.
"I left her because I couldn't handle watching her hurt." I wiped my eyes just thinking how could a man be so afraid to love someone.
