His voice cracked, and Jason could tell the guy was about to get teary-eyed. Whether Nico had really given up on Percy or not, Jason couldn't imagine what it had been like for Nico all those years, keeping a secret that would've been unthinkable to share in the 1940s, denying who he was, feeling completely alone- even more isolated than other demigods."

About This Quote

It is never easy to give up on someone you love. When you make the decision to end a relationship, it can bring up emotions that you haven't felt in a long time. It is not easy to get out of the relationship because of that person who has been there for you since the beginning of your life. Nico did something that was very brave, he didn't want to feel pain anymore and he gave up on Percy because he looked for the best. As he said, "I gave up on Percy." He didn't want to be in pain anymore so he gave up on Percy and said goodbye.
