Ivy

“I love you, Ivy. I'll never stop loving you."

She leaned against the winsow, looking out on a pale and glittering night. She looked through tears.

I prayed for one more chance to reach you," he said, "to tell you how much I love you and to tell you to keep on loving. Someone else was meant for you, Ivy, and you were meant for someone else."

She stood up straight. "No."

Yes, love," he said, softly but firmly.

No!"

Promise me, Ivy-"

I'll promise you nothing but that I love you," she cried.

Listen to me," Tristan pleaded. "You know I can't stay any longer."

The pale, glittering night was raining now, and fresh tears gleamed on her cheeks, but he had to leave.

I love you," he said. "I love you. Love him.
