"Dylan, the CEO of a successful company, sat in their luxurious living room, watching as Bella packed her suitcase. They had been inseparable since the day they met in college, and the thought of being apart from her was unbearable.
"Bella, please don't go," Dylan said, his voice laced with concern. "You don't need to work. I can take care of you."
Bella smiled weakly, her eyes welling up with tears. "I need to do this, Dylan. I need to pursue my dreams."
Dylan stood up, walking over to her. "Your dreams are here, with me. We can build a life together, just the two of us."
Bella shook her head, her voice firm. "I've already made up my mind, Dylan. I have to go."
Dylan felt a pang of sadness, knowing that he couldn't change her mind. He took her in his arms, holding her close. "I'll wait for you," he whispered. "No matter how long it takes."
Bella nodded, her eyes shining with tears. "I'll be back before you know it," she said.
As they hugged, Dylan felt a sense of emptiness wash over him. He knew that their lives were about to change forever.
