Closure.

"I really did love you," she said, and there was not as much hurt in her voice as finality and disappointment. "But now I've seen that you didn't really care in the first place. I tried to give us a chance, you know? Hoping that we could still be friends or something. You just gave it up... So I gave up on you too."

He stared at her blankly, and there was a pregnant pause for a moment. He attempted to say something, but the words were caught in his throat. She went on flatly, "Yeah. I guess that's it. I was just hoping for closure, and I just had to say all this to you. Thanks for all you've taught me, and all I've learnt? Even though I went through so much pain the past year, I've become stronger."

She waited for him to say something else, a word to hold her back, but he shrugged simply. "If that's it, then goodbye." He replied quite simply, and shoved his hands further into his pockets.

"Goodbye." She brushed past him, and walked briskly onto the pavement. The sun was shining, the sky was cloudless; yes, it would be a fine day. It was a new day, and she would put the past behind.
