Dear Soldier, Put Your Gun Down

Chapter 16 I’m Not A Cheater

Benjamin’s eyes glistened with tears. Winona’s answer drove a dagger through his heart. Had she slapped him a few times, or yelled at him, he might have felt better.

All this time, he wanted to ask her if she had ever loved him, but when the time came, he simply said, “Sorry.”

Winona smiled lightly. “I know it wasn’t your fault. As the head of the Larson family, you can only take on the family’s interest as your own responsibility. Even if they asked you to marry Aileen, you won’t hesitate.”

The Larson’s family was a shell of its former self; it needed the Winston family’s assistance to stay relevant, to maintain their political influence.

The understanding and care she displayed embittered him. After all, she was the only person he loved for so many years.

The night wind billowed, messing up her hair. He yearned to gather it up, to help tie her hair back like before, however instead of doing so he patted her shoulder weakly.

“Winona, only you would know me that well.”

She smiled. Strangely enough, despite his broken promise, she felt no anger towards him, no strong emotions such as love or hate. Only gratitude. She wondered whether she had any feelings at all.

“Benjamin, thank you for your kindness over the years. Both Aileen and I will not forget it.”

He swallowed the bitterness inside him and smiled, “Enough of that, Winona, or you’ll make me feel worse.”

The two fell silent.

After what seemed like an eternity, he turned and looked at her. “Winona, can I hug you?”

Winona was silent for a long moment before she finally nodded.
