Regret Came Too Late

Anthony looked at Grace through the rearview mirror and suddenly said, "Maybe you can persuade Ed."

Grace looked at the flying snowflakes through the window, her gaze unfocused. "I don't know anything about his past. How can I persuade him?

"If he has an important reason for staying there and that's the only place he feels safe, is it really good for him when I ask him to leave in the name of love?"

As she said this, she slowly closed her eyes and leaned back. "There are so many times I don't even know how to get along with him."

She didn't know who owed the other in the first place, but she always instinctively felt the need to give in to him.

Anthony was a bit surprised, as he hadn't expected Grace to think so deeply. Grace was too rational-itwas easy for people to fall for her, but that clarity of hers was like a double-edged sword.

When the car stopped at a traffic light, he sighed. "Did he tell you about his brother?"

"He mentioned it a few times, but I don't really know anything specific."

She had thought Anthony would say something about it. But when the car started to move again, he didn't say a word.
