Love Like Falling Petals
After a moment's hesitation, Sophie continued, "Earlier outside, I saw a man. He was kneeling in front of the police, only asking to see you. So, you already had the happiness you wanted, but you never took it seriously."
Helen instantly burst into tears, staring blankly at the door.
She knew that the man who loved her had always been there outside the door.
But it was too late now and she was too embarrassed to see the man again.
As Sophie stood up to leave, Helen passed her a note from inside.
"Please give this to him for me."
Sophie reached out to take it and nodded gently.
When she walked outside, the man was sitting dejectedly on a chair.
She walked up to him and handed him the note.
