Chapter 19: Acceptance
"I became a joke... a really bad joke. Please tell me this is a nightmare!", Rina cried. Miguel hugged Rina tightly, he felt pained to see the woman he loves suffering this way.
“Hush now… I’m here, Rina. Sorry, I wasn’t able to take care of you.”, Miguel sounds regretful. He is blaming himself, if he hadn’t extended their practice and had asked Rina to wait for him at the park, everything wouldn’t happen.
“Paula brought me her… I just want to see him, Miguel. I just want to see Lambert… and ask him if he’s angry with me and… and…”, Rina cried weakly. Miguel felt pity for Rina and Lambert felt like his heart is being squeezed to see Rina this way. He despises Paula too much of what she has done to Rina.
“Don’t worry, Rina… you may stop now… Hush now, don’t cry anymore.”, Miguel tried to comfort Rina as he hugs her and rub her back.
