Lahat ng Kabanata ng When You Least Expect It: Kabanata 41 - Kabanata 50

I visited mom two days later and she was quite shocked to see me there again so soon. When I was sure she was okay and I updated her about happenings at home, I went to the hospital cafeteria to get a snack and hopefully catch a glimpse of Katherine. I was halfway into a meat pie before I saw her. She walked alone thankfully, so it gave me that extra boost of confidence to wave to her.

I didn't tell her anything about that night because I didn’t want her opinion of me to change but her dad knew some of the stories behind that night.

I arrived at the address Katherine texted me and looked around. The gallery was across the street so I waited for a break in traffic to cross the road.
