Summary

Paul has reached a point where he considers himself healed, mostly at least. A new man in the making, he returns to Ruben with his heart in his hands and the ultimate goal of continuing where they left off. But Ruben has moved on in the worst way possible, and Paul is forced to realize that what he wants isn't what his Ruby needs. Can something still come of what they lost regardless of the consequences, or will letting go be the reckoning proof that Paul has truly healed?

Intro

You left.

I’m sorry.

I still have the ring. Does it still mean anything?

It means whatever you need it to mean.

Well, I need to know I’ll see you again.

I will see you again, right?

I don’t know.

I feel like us coming together like that just made everything worse.

And I think you might be better off without me.

Even if that were true, I’d rather die than never see you again.

And I’d rather you live, regardless of me.

I’ll come find you, Ruby.

I swear I will.

Paul, I love you.

I love you to the moon and back.

But?

No buts. Just get better.

Don’t worry about me. Don’t worry about us. Just get your head on straight and get better.

I will, Ruby.

And I will come back for you.

I swear.
