Chapter 902

Abigail did not let Xander speak. "I know you were good to my grandma, and you helped me take care of her so we were happy in Florivera. I know all the good things you do. But why didn't you tell me the truth?"

Faced with her question, Xander's eyes behind his silver glasses were full of guilt and panic. "Abigail, do you know what it feels like when you try really hard to reach someone, but you just can't?"

Abigail answered, "Yes. When my dad left me after the car accident, and now with Grandma gone too, they were right there, but no matter how hard I tried, I just couldn't reach them."

"I feel the same way right now. I'm scared because even though you're beside me, I feel like I can't reach you." Xander pushed up his glasses and suddenly laughed, his laugh deep and low. "I don't even know when you became so important to me. I'm scared to think about living without you. I love you, Abigail, and I'm afraid of losing you. That's why I act so nervous and different when it comes to you.
