"<b> How this book should have ended...</b><br/><br/><u>Alexa</u>: Caine, I love you<br/><br/><u>Caine:</u> I don't love you. I'm not the guy you are looking for...but maybe we could be **** buddies?<br/><br/><u>Alexa:</u> **** buddies? Yep...that title isn't going to work for me. Look Caine, I am a beautiful business savvy independent woman, who is worthy to be loved by a man that worships me and would never label me as "**** buddy". Also, both of our childhoods sucked, so you literally had no excuse to treat me like **** in the first few months we knew each other.<br/>AND NEWS FLASH, I will move on from you...though it will take loads of wine and mindless sex with strangers, but I will eventually move on and meet a wonderful man, who loves, respects, and trusts me. YOU , Caine, will still be alone in ten years. You may get the sex you need, but every night you will come home to a lonely blank apartment and bury your head in work because you hate the fact that there is no one to hold your hand at night or laughter to fill your halls. <br/>And I hope you remember me in those moments of clarity, because that is the only love you will have left from me. <br/><br/> <img src="https://media.giphy.com/media/l4HodBpDmoMA5p9bG/giphy.gif" width="480" height="480" alt="description"/><br/><br/>-The End-<br/><br/>The book would have been a lot better if Alexa had just said what she felt to Cain and left his ass so she could do her dream job. It would have been a great story.....a short story, but a story nonetheless. <br/><br/>All well. 🤷<br/><br/> <br/><br/><br/>"
