Happy Birthday

"In the early days after I left home, I always told myself that 'I am going to find a way for my grandson to recover'. But year after year… my failure to find a method that works for you is pushing me away from you.”

Liam was silent. His gaze became gloomy, and the light in his golden eyes dimmed slightly.

“And I don't know when… I started to give up. Until it makes me unable to face you and see your face even more."

The two of them stopped walking.

The woman slowly removed her hand from Liam's arm and looked up to see the face of her grandson who was taller than her.

“Liam… will you forgive Grandma?”

Alameida's green eyes stared straight at Liam. It took so long for Alameida to muster up her courage and express her guilt to her grandson whom she loves so much.

Her grandson… who had suffered so much.
