Abigail’s Second Life

"I'll go to the car and get you a bottle of water," Josh said, pulling Xavien, who didn't want to leave, and dragging him away. Sean watched as Abigail retched for half a day without vomiting. He reached out and gently patted her back.

Abigail's body stiffened. Even though she was very reluctant, she quickly pushed him away. "Thank you, Mr. Graham."

While Josh was still chatting with Xavien, Abigail's slender figure approached.

He paused for a moment and looked behind her but did not see Sean.

Abigail walked up to him, took the mineral water from his hand, twisted the bottle cap, and walked toward the flower bed.

Xavien got into the car.

Josh watched him drive off to pick up Sean, sighing helplessly.

It wasn't until Abigail got into the car that he spoke up, "Did you talk to Sean?"

"About what?" Abigail asked back.

Josh scratched his head, pondered for a moment, and then slowly said, "About what happened in the past six months. You should explain things. Are you just giving up without explaining anything?"

"He already has a girlfriend. What else is there to explain? I didn't want to live like I did because of Joan. I don't want to be that kind of person. We are all adults now. Since we have chosen to break up, let's move on." Abigail looked out the window, the light from the street lamps occasionally falling on her face, making her look very calm.

"You say you're moving on, but you've been drinking heavily. Is that your way of moving on?" Josh asked with a hint of concern in his voice. Because he was her brother, he understood why Abigail was behaving this way.
