Sebastian shook his head. "It dawned on me that I overreacted after I got my bearings, so I tried to contact Alex again, but I couldn't find him. I asked his family, but they said Alex had been out of it after his legs were broken, and he never cared about other people.
"One day, he left a letter and left his family. He asked his family and friends not to worry about him because he only wanted some time to be alone. After that…I can't get my hands on any of his news."
Vicky heard that and her eyes started to waver. She thought the dream she had last night happened because of the shocking truth she discovered. From the looks of it, it was more than what she thought.
By then, Missus Mills came out with a bowl of washed fruits.
"Missus Hart." She gave Sebastian a warning look before smiling at Vicky. "Please have some fruits."
Ever since Vicky was here, she had been calling Vicky 'Missus Hart'. It was an act of means to remind Vicky and also Sebastian of their situation.
