I Don't Want To

Max felt like he was dreaming when he saw Hazel slowly walking towards him. It was like a scene in a dream where she was actually his. But Max suddenly snapped out of it when he saw Hazel's indifferent expression. He felt guilty to even fantasize about her. It was pitiful enough that Hazel had to endure this, so he had no right to take pleasure from her pain. Although Hazel was only standing next to him, he didn't have the courage to even look at her. If he saw the emptiness in her eyes, Max was afraid that he couldn't even bear to stand by her side. "I'm sorry..." Even though Hazel did not answer, Max noticed that she was squeezing the flowers very tightly. It was obvious that she felt distressed. After that, Hazel blanked out and did not acknowledge the priest for some while. "Mr. Max Simpson, are you willing to marry Miss Hazel Wilkinson?" The priest looked at Max. "I don't deserve it," Max answered expressionlessly. Stunned, the priest had never encountered such a situation before.
