A few minutes later. Theo walked to her while bringing a water bottle. "Have you calmed down?"
Rea didn't dare to look at him as she was too embarrassed from her breakdown earlier. She never realized it before, but she had been carrying too much burden this entire time.
It might be the first time in her life that she showed her weakness to someone else. Even when her palms were full of blisters or her body was about to collapse, she always smiled and assured others she was fine.
Theo might not carry her burden, but he showed her how to carry it easier. This action lifted that burden to the point she had leeway to cry.
'Ugh. Even my family never saw me crying.' Rea was too embarrassed recounting what happened earlier. 'And to think that the one who saw it was Theo, not someone from my family.'
