Andien told him. "Can I give you some advice?" "Go ahead!" "Are you immune when Kenan comes near you?" Tom asked curiously. "My heart and my feelings are dead, Tom.

My heart skipped a beat, my tears moist right then. I dropped to a crouch and held him, pressing my ear against his chest again. I could hear his heartbeat, thumping powerfully through his thin shirt. It was such a familiar sensation. It was Stan's heartbeat. As I closed my eyes, my tears flowed ever so quietly. We stayed like that for a while, and as I wiped my tears, I held Nathan firmly in my arms once more. "Please live a good life with Stan's heart." - Nathan walked with me to the gates of the orphanage, but I never once turned to look at him again.

the assistant replied. His assistant handed him the donation agreement that I had signed. Joseph did not take it. He turned his face away, and his shoulders trembled violently.

The station was in the same direction as the hiking spot where the hospital was conducting its recreational activity. Julia was riding in a black sedan with a special license plate that ensured the journey was a smooth one for her. The sedan eventually overtook the hospital's shuttle bus.

It felt as though something was quietly slipping away from his grasp. He noticed a black sedan speeding past the bus at that moment.

With her by his side, his vision returned, his memory came back, and his life turned around. Somehow, all that bitterness just faded away. Then, Sylvia came back.

After all those years of knowing her, how could he just watch her die? She only had a month left. Camille and him still had their whole lives ahead of them. They had decades together.

It poured down like rain over wounds I couldn’t see, washing away the chill of last night but not the ache in my chest. Vincent. I wanted him here. Even angry. Even furious. Even if it meant punishment. Because this emptiness without him… it was worse than anything he’d ever done to me. I stood under the water until my fingers pruned, hoping it would cleanse my soul, but when I stepped out and wrapped the towel around my body, the ache was still there.
