CHAPTER 20: Broken Ice

Andrew's POV:

I shouldn't have left her alone, it was my fault. I was too selfish, that I thought only about myself and I forgot that she too needs someone to be on her side.

Jessica is too proud to ask for help or to show some vulnerability, but anyone who cares a little can see how much she's crying for a lift. Even if she's steady all the time. Unbowed to the cruel reality.

It is kinda obvious for me. Because, well, we're similar to that matter. Except the fact that I feel a bit better since I've met her.

Jess basically softens my agony, when I look at her I feel like I still have a chance in this shitty life. Even if, in light of these previous events it doesn't look like our life is getting any better.

I still can't wrap my mind around the idea of her knowing or thinking about some other guy. Who is he? Is he better than I am?
