Chapter 306: Jeslyn’s heartbreak
Jeslyn was seen in her room, standing by the floor-to-ceiling window as she stared at space, lost in thought.
The thunderstorm from the horizon, coupled with the rain that was slapping against her window jolted Jeslyn back to reality. At that moment, the rainborite stone on her finger shone brightly, but this time, it was a pink light that shrouded Jeslyn for a fleeting second before it disappeared again.
Jeslyn looked at the ring for a long time. She realized yesterday that the rainborite stone does not only shine when the temperature changes but also does that when her mood changes.
Another thing she observed was that, when the stone shines, she starts to feel relaxed and dizzy.
Jeslyn yawned and returned to bed. In no time, she fell asleep.
In the middle of the night, Pink entered Jeslyn’s room and sat beside the head of her bed. Looking at her daughter who was sleeping peacefully, Pink took Jeslyn’s hand in hers and slowly started to massage it while talking to herself.
"Child, I’m so sorry for everything I’ve made you go through for so long. I’m also very sorry for not telling you the truth a little earlier. I tried to speak to you, but I couldn’t. It was too much for me to tell you... I’m scared you’ll get angry and run away from me. I’m deeply sorry, child."
...
The next morning...
Jeslyn saw her mother smiling and running towards her with her hands spread out to hug her.
"Mom?"
