"When will you face Mr. Montenegro? He just keeps coming back here," Yanah asked her.She was referring to Ethan, who was waiting in the shelter’s lobby, hoping she might finally decide to face him."Let him be," she replied. "No one asked him to do that."She turned to go back to her room. She was about to leave earlier while Yanah was assisting her, but when she saw Ethan, she changed her mind.A week after his first visit there with Shanna, Ethan had never missed a day at the shelter. Every day, he hoped she would finally meet him. But Ally’s heart was as hard as stone. She remained resolute in her decision not to show herself to Ethan.The truth was, when she first saw him, she wanted desperately to go to him. She missed him so much that no words could describe the emotions she fought to keep from showing.She loved Ethan, and even the word “love” was an understatement of how much he meant to her. That’s why, even though it hurt, she didn’t want to let him back into her life. She

“Did I scare you?” She asked Ethan.“Not a bit,” Ethan denied.When Ally woke up, she saw Ethan, who had fallen asleep at the side of her bed, holding one of her hands.He wasn’t kidding. He still loved her. She could feel it. She knew Ethan well. He wouldn’t waste his time coming here every day if she weren’t important to him. He was still the man she had loved and left two years ago.The same Ethan who was willing to defy even his own parents just to keep her in his life.He was the man who would move mountains just to be with her. But he was also the one she was trying to protect the most. She made the hardest decision when she left him because she didn’t want him to lose her through death. She thought that if he believed she no longer loved him, he would move on more quickly if he was angry.Compared to knowing she wanted to fight but that death would separate them.Then again, it seemed she had underestimated his love for her.“You’re lying,” she insisted. She knew he was scared.

"I'm sorry, Ethan. I overslept," Felicity apologized as she arrived.He stood up, pulled a chair for her, and gently planted a kiss on her cheek."It's fine, Siti," he replied, returning to his seat."So, why did you move our date to breakfast? You know I'm not a morning person. But don’t get me wrong. I’m not complaining," she said with a smile. Maybe she was just really curious.He gave a slow smile, contemplating how to tell her that he wanted to end things with her."I know that smile, Ethan," Felicity said, her smile fading. For a moment, Ethan thought she looked insecure. "I hope I'm wrong. But I'm starting to feel uneasy about this breakfast. You have something to tell me, don’t you?""How about we eat first?" he said gently. He didn’t want to break up with her before they had even had a meal.Felicity nodded, but she looked sad. The confident smile she had when she arrived was gone.They ate in silence. Although he occasionally asked her about her work, her answers were short.

"Ally!"After spending several years with Michael in the past, Allison knew he was soft-hearted about many things—often the small things. But never in their five years of college had she seen him cry like he was now, holding her hands and weeping."Michael," she said softly, her voice breaking on the mention of his two-syllable name."Ally, Kattie and I have been searching for you for so long," he said. "Why did you leave like that? Aren’t we your friends?""I'm sorry," was all she managed to reply.She was glad to see her friend, but she wasn’t happy with the way their meeting had turned out. Since Shanna found her, this had become the usual scene. People she had cut out of her life kept appearing, crying rivers when they saw her condition."It's not too late, right, Allison? There's still hope for you," Michael asked, his eyes still wet with tears.She shook her head. Did she need to repeatedly tell each person that her condition was already hopeless?Michael bowed his head, as if t

“Thanks for bringing Michael here, Ethan,” Ally said when Ethan entered her room after Michael had left.“He’s just the first of many I’ll be bringing here for you,” Ethan replied, taking a seat on a chair beside her bed. She was sitting on the side of the bed, so they faced each other directly. Since her bed was higher, she was slightly higher than Ethan. “Except for Kattie, I’m still looking for her.”She chuckled softly. Yes, she was no longer angry that he was back. It seemed she was even growing accustomed to it. When he arrived late that day, she felt sad thinking he might not come. But it turned out he had brought her friend along.“Thank you,” she said again. “Honestly, I didn’t expect to see even one of you before I’m gone. I thought I would just die a lonely death.”“There you go again, Allison.” Ethan sighed and took her hands, then held her gaze with his intense stare. “Can we make a deal?”“Hmn?” she replied, seeming to drown in his gaze. She felt lost in his eyes, just a

“Have those two not developed feelings for each other yet?” Ally asked, amused, as she watched Leio and Shanna joking around with other patients at the shelter.“Well, about that, I’m not sure I want to entrust my cousin to Leio,” Ethan said, affectionately adjusting the way her head rested on his shoulder.“Why not? Isn’t Leio your friend? One of your two best friends, actually.”“Yes. And so I know how he treats women. I don’t want my cousin to end up on his list. You know, Shanna is very dear to me. She’s like my sister,” he explained.“It’s not like there’s a zero possibility that Leio will change,” Ally said, chuckling a bit. “I still think they look good together.”“Ah, don’t encourage them!” The man laughed a little. “On a serious note, if those two do end up liking each other, I think it would be fine. Shanna is being picky. She doesn’t seem to like any of her admirers.”“Maybe Leio is actually the right one for her.”“If Shanna hears you, you’re in trouble,” Ethan joked.“I’v

“Mama,” he called to get his mother’s attention, who was standing near the glass wall of his office.Andrea Montenegro turned around and gave him a reserved, cold smile. Sometimes, he wondered if his mother even knew how to be a mother.She lacked any warmth.“What brought you here?” he asked.“Is that how you welcome your mother, son?”He felt like rolling his eyes. She was the one lacking emotion upon seeing him.“I’m just asking, Ma.” He approached Andrea and kissed her cheek.That simple gesture surprised his mother, though her expression only changed momentarily.“Well, I felt obliged to pay you a visit,” Andrea said as she took a seat, not breaking eye contact with him. “A Director raised a concern that you’re always unreachable. What’s going on, Ethan?”“Are you asking me, Mama, because you don’t know yet? Or do you need confirmation?” He knew her well enough to understand that she likely already knew why and who had been occupying his time.“Why are you not listening to your m

“She was in and out of consciousness last night, Mr. Montenegro. And today, she’s not waking up yet. It’s almost past two PM.”Ethan nearly sped his car to the shelter.He was in the middle of an important meeting when Yanah called. Just seeing her name flash on his silent cellphone had sent his heart racing. He let his phone ring while abruptly wrapping up the meeting. He lost focus and fervently hoped nothing bad had happened to Allison while he wasn’t by her side.And now, Yanah’s words felt like a knife twisting in his heart.“Please, be well, Ally,” he whispered as his vision blurred while he drove well past the speed limit.He just hoped he wouldn’t get pulled over. Just this once. He needed to be beside Ally immediately.“Wait for me, please…”When he arrived, he almost ran to her room. The tightness in his chest was palpable as he saw her sitting on the bed while talking to Yanah. The inexplicable joy of seeing her like this made him tear up.He calmed himself and dried his te
