34. Unusual Attention

After Wela closed the door, Frank moved closer to Kara. One of his hand rose to stroke her pale cheek. His movements were so light as if he was afraid of increasing the pain there.

“I’m sorry,” he whispered softly. “If I knew this could happen, I would have let you eat Ben’s chocolate.”

Frank thought he would feel better after saying those words. But apparently not, the image of Kara stumbling into his arms recurred more and more often. Her groan pierced his heart.

Kara looked around for a moment. “I want to go home.” No thanks followed. Instead, she took her bag and phone on the table.
