A Weakness

Lucian noticed the tears falling down from her eyes, and his heart clenched painfully. Never did he think he would be seeing the woman in such a vulnerable state.

Because she had a weakness, which was him, she had to suffer from too long. How could he complain when he led a carefree and happy life, and as for her, she hardly had a purpose for carrying on?

The incident that happened a decade ago wasn't that clear in his head. As the type of person to easily move, he placed it behind his back, not caring enough to mull about it. He was pretty satisfied with his life after all.

But Valerie didn't have the privilege to do it.

Because of the sake of love she had for him coupled with the guilt, she continued to suffer at the hand of Arnold. If she could remain indifferent to him, then she might not have gone through half of that and would be easily out of his control.

The devotion she had was frightening and amazing.
