Sarah couldn't hold back her tears when Michael finally came out of the bedroom. She tried not to feel hurt by Michael's words, tried to appear strong, but seeing Michael looking angry like that hurt her, and she kinda deserved it.
She had lied to the man, Michael deserved to be angry and cursed at her, but her heart ached and tears just came out of her eyes.
Why… Why can she still feel hurt by that man's behavior? Does she really still love him? Well… that's a stupid question. Her heart ached like this, of course she still loves him.
After a few minutes of crying silently and feeling much calmer, Sarah slowly got out of bed to grab her pants and put them back on.
If she thought about it, she was always fighting with Michael when she was wearing nothing. Can't they fight when they're fully clothed?
It seems that the author has to find other ideas and be more creative.
EHEM
Sarah then sat on the edge of the bed and took a deep breath, trying to calm herself, who was still sobbing every now and then. She then looked behind her at the bed that had been her bed with Michael for over a month.
However, today, she would not sleep here again.
Michael's words had brought her to her senses. This is Michael's apartment. She's only here temporarily. sHe also had her own apartment, although it wasn't this big, and it would be best if, from now on, she should live there.
Sarah could feel her chest thumping wildly as her hand gripped the knob of her bedroom door. What if she ran into Michael outside? What should she tell the man? Does she have to explain everything?
Sarah sighed once more. She owed Michael an explanation and she'd better do that. Explained what happened and… said goodbye to the man.
She still loves him, but they can't be together. Michael has a fiancé whom he is going to marry. After this he would probably go to that model and explain what happened.
Sarah then came out of the room, her heart beating faster every time she went down the stairs one by one. Soon… she would meet Michael.
However, the atmosphere of an empty apartment greeted Sarah's sight. Michael was not in the dining room, in the living room, or on the balcony.
"Did he go out?" Sarah then checked Michael's car which was still parked beside their living room, showing that the man had not gone out. It made her a little relieved, at least, Michael didn't go to see his fiancé right away.
"But where is Michael now?" thought Sarah, confused. She wanted to give an explanation, but she couldn't find the man.
Sarah finally decided to quickly get out and go to her apartment, tomorrow she still has to go to work and she needs time to sleep.
Before Sarah opened the door to leave, she turned and saw the apartment she had lived in for over a month.
She could see herself and Michael standing by the balcony looking out over the city. She could see the two of them in the pool. She could see them doing massages on the living room sofa. Those who eat dinner at the dinner table, those who wash the dishes together in the kitchen.
Without realizing it, Sarah's tears just came out when she could see their happy faces.
"Goodbye," said Sarah then opened the door and stepped out with tears streaming down her cheeks.

Sarah didn't know how she came to work this morning when she couldn't sleep at all last night because she kept crying. She had parted with Michael before, but she didn't think that she would still feel the pain she had felt before.
"Sarah?"
Sarah flinched when she felt someone touch her hand. The face of the man who had blond hair with blue eyes immediately greeted her sight.
"Are you alright?' Steve asked with a worried look on his face. This was the first time he had seen Sarah out of focus. The woman's favorite sandwich was also completely untouched by her.
"Yes, I'm fine. Looks like I have to go back, Steve," said Sarah then decided to leave before hearing the answer from the man. She's not in the mood to eat at the moment.
Steve looked at Sarah with a confused and worried look, then looked at the sandwich that hadn't been touched at all. He then suddenly stood up, took the sandwich, and ran after Sarah.
"Sarah! Wait!" Steve caught his breath as he caught up with Sarah and stopped right in front of her.
Sarah's brow furrowed, confused by Steve's behavior.
"Here!" Steve said then gave the sandwich that was still wrapped.
"I don't know what happened to you, but you should at least eat to have the energy to get through the day. You're a doctor, do it for your patients. OK?" Steve continued with a smile and took Sarah's hand and handed him the sandwich.
Sarah was still silent, processing what had just happened. Did the man run after her just to give her this sandwich?
"Then I'll go first. Ohh… I'm so hungry," Steve mumbled, walking past Sarah.
Sarah's lips involuntarily smiled when she saw Steve's behavior, as usual the man was very… weird, but in a good sense. She then looked at the sandwich that was now in her hand.
Like Steve said, she's a doctor. She had no appetite, but she had to.

Sarah sighed when today she couldn't find the figure of the man who for the past month had been waiting for her in front of the hospital. She knew that Michael wouldn't be coming to pick her up again, but Sarah's heart was hoping that he would be waiting for her outside the hospital, and that they might be able to talk.
"What did you expect, Sarah? He's probably with his fiancé right now," Sarah thought subconsciously with a sad smile.
"Oh yeah, I have to talk to him and explain what happened. Should I call him first, or go straight to his apartment?" thought Sarah who was still standing in front of the hospital.
She doesn't live in his apartment anymore, so she should contact him first, right?
"Sarah!" Just as Sarah was thinking about what she should do, she suddenly heard someone calling her name, which made her turn around and see Steve running towards her.
"Steve? What is it?" Sarah asked with a confused look. Why did the man have to run like this?
Steve didn't answer right away, his chest rising and falling trying to catch his breath.
"Dinner. How about we have dinner?" Steve asked, looking at Sarah gently.
