That constant ringing
Looking at the documents, Akira sighed.
She already had a huge responsibility on her shoulders and taking this up meant piling boulders on top of her head. But that meant more of Raymond, more of his hopes, more of his dreams and more of his presence around her. So she couldn't say no.
Katherine had already signed the documents and all that she had to do was to put her initials on the paper and seal it.
Taking the pen from Katherine, she again looked at them, who gave back nothing but a warm assurance to her through their kind eyes and smiling face.
Once she was done signing the papers, Katherine took the file from her hands and placed a box in front of her.
"These are some of his things that I want you to have".
Akira looked at Katherine and said,
"Not now Katherine. I am not ready yet".
"Yes, you are. How long will you try to escape from the reality Akira? Even you know that my brother is..".
"Just stop. Katherine, please. I beg of you".
