Chapter 34: I Have to Know

Those moments where I stood on the marble balcony, fighting with all my thoughts and fears, they reminded me of my thoughts in the past.

I thought finding true love would solve all my problems, we would fight everything and we would succeed, since love could overcome everything.

When I took a glimpse at my life now, I saw that love was the reason for everything. It was the reason for my downfall.

I came to this country with high expectations, but never counted on the feeling of loneliness I would face the day I arrived.

Max found me, in the middle of my solidarity. He relieved my wounds, made me feel like a part of two halves, rather than a soul wandering around among millions of others.

But it didn’t end well.

Then I met Aiden, the man of my dreams. The man I immediately fell in love with, even at first sight.

Would this end well?

Would I go to the end?

"Lara," my thoughts got interrupted by Aunt Rhea.

"Aunt Rhea," I said while trying to pull myself together.
