Finally looking up at Akira, Josh was a little shaky, and seeing Akira with tears in his eyes only made him feel worse. “You can’t believe that.” Josh whispered and closed his eyes yet again. “I surely believe that I deserve someone as amazing as you compared to someone as pitiful as her. And I’m not sure if I can stop the marriage…I’ll have to talk to Elizabeth face to face. She’s coming over tomorrow.” Josh said with a bit of hate in his voice now.
“I have to try to stop it. I cant spend my whole life with someone like her. I’d go insane…I’d hate my life.” Josh looked into Akira’s eyes, barely noticing his own maroon eyes glistening with tears that didn’t dare fall. “I’ll try.” he whispered finally.
