My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna)

I didn't want to blame my miscarriage on her, but she had triggered me. I knew that I, too, should be responsible for the death of my child, but she kept accusing me shamelessly. I couldn't stand the fact that she kept accusing me as if she were on some moral high ground. I was flooded with hate and resentment towards her.

I really have no idea how to pay for my sins. I just wish that I can help the person I love to get past these difficult times!"
