1. I’m Too Tired

Kara still faced the door. Her vision was blurry. The tears couldn’t

stop flowing.

‘What will Frank do? Can he handle all this chaos?’

Sighing in resignation, Kara turned around, about to check on the

twins. However, before she had time to move from her position, the door to Susan’s room opened.

“Mom?” Kara swallowed hard.

Through a movement of her head, Susan signaled her to come in. Kara complied.

“You cried for that jerk?” Susan asked as she walked towards the chair. When she turned around, she continued, “Why?”

Kara tried to catch her breath. Her head moved to match the rhythms.

“I don’t know, Mom. The thought just came to me, just like this feeling. I do not understand too.”

“Come to your senses, Kara. That man has ruined your life. He’s already left you. You still dare to pin your hopes on him?”

Kara bit her lip. She didn’t know what the right answer was. When she saw her mother sigh in disappointment, she finally chose honesty.

“Mom, you once said that I don’t have to always be tough? If I want to cry, just cry. Maybe, I’m too tired, Mom.”

A drop of sadness melted again on Kara’s cheek. Susan quickly looked away. She couldn’t think straight every time she saw her daughter’s pain.
