"I'm so embarrassed," she sobbed, her words barely coherent. "I can't believe you had to see how much they hate me."Martins reached out and gently placed a hand on her shoulder. "It's okay to cry, Carina," he said softly. "Sometimes it's the only way to let go of all the pain."Carina choked back a sob, her chest heaving with emotion. "I just don't understand why they treat me like this," she whispered, her voice trembling with hurt.Martins furrowed his brow, his eyes reflecting her pain.

I hesitated for a moment, recognizing it as Luke's, but eventually decided to ignore it. However, he kept calling persistently, refusing to give up. With a sigh, I finally answered, steeling myself for whatever he had to say."Hello?" I said, my voice guarded.There was a moment of silence on the other end before Luke spoke, his tone surprisingly calm. It caught me off guard, considering our past interactions. He didn't waste any time with small talk, immediately launching into an apology."Carina, I'm sorry," he began, his words tentative yet earnest. "I know I've hurt you, and I regret it deeply."I listened in disbelief, not expecting such a remorseful tone from him.
