Chapter 265: Triggered.
"So what happened this time? Why are you so sad and cursing at yourself?" Adele asked immediately They parted the hug.
Arissa’s breath hitched at the question. She closed her eyes for a split second before opening them again with tears almost spilling out of them.
The whole air around her screamed for comfort and as if played, both Adele and Jocelyn took hold of both hands and squeezed them softly. She was the baby between all three of them and they made sure to treat her as one when she needed it.
Arissa turned to Jocelyn and looked into her eyes, "I wish your words this morning happened," she began and turned away from Jocelyn.
Jocelyn nodded in understanding. She sensed another argument becoming the story of the day long ago. "Tell us all about it." She urged her to drop the sadness in her heart and speak up.
Arissa’s heart tightened. Now, she has to remember all of it, from her hurtful words to how he tried to comfort her and down to the last hurt and sad look in his eyes before he left her all alone. However, whichever way, she has to share it with them.
Unhurriedly, she drew both of her hands away from their grip. She gave them small smiles and stood up from the bed. She felt nervous and disappointed in herself but she dared not to show it so openly.
She sat down on the extra seat in the ward and stared down at her feet, "Our notice turned out to be true."
"What notice?" Adele inquired.
