"Sabrina, do you mean it? You really don't want to be with me anymore?" His voice came out hoarse, but the pleading edge to his voice could not be missed.

Sabrina clenched her fists and lowered her head. “It's not that I don't want to be with you, Tyrone. You're the one who pushed me away."

“I admit I was wrong. I shouldn't have hidden it from you or made my decision without consulting you. Sabrina, can you give me another chance?" Tyrone pleaded.

"I've given you many chances, but you failed to seize them. What else do you want me to do?" Sabrina rejected.

Tyrone's eyes closed, an expression of despair settling into his features. He took a deep breath and said, “This is the last time, okay? If you give me another chance, you have my word that if I do anything to disappoint you, I will never badger you again."
