But Wendy had no intention of going to prison. Still kneeling, she quietly gave Elsa a look, signaling her to keep pressing the matter with John and Simon.

Elsa immediately caught on. She sniffled and let out a delicate, trembling sol, like a blood–weeping cuckoo. “I don’t want my mom to go to jail. I’m so scared she won’t be there when I die…”

“Lily, that’s enough.”

John pulled Elsa tighter into his arms and snapped at Lily, voice sharp and stern. “Stop deliberately upsetting Elsa! If anything happens to her because of you, I’ll never forgive you!”

“Wow, this so–called terminal illness really is a get–out–of–jail–free card, isn’t it?”

Lily’s beautiful eyes were cool and full of mockery.

“So Elsa’s life matters, but mine doesn’t? Just because she’s dying, I’m supposed to give her everything? Just because she’s dying, nearly getting killed and destroyed myself was somehow deserved? What kind of logic is that? I don’t believe it, and I won’t accept it.”

She sneered, voice growing sharper. “John, you love your precious Elsa–then you sacrifice, you protect her, you give her everything. She’s nothing to me. Who are you to demand that I sacrifice, that I suffer for her? She doesn’t deserve it. And neither do you.”

Her tone turned chilling. “Ha. And if it turns out one day that Elsa’s illness is all an act, wouldn’t that be something.

John’s brow furrowed.

He thought accusing Elsa of faking her illness was harsh. And he hated seeing Lily so full of thorns, so defiant and difficult.

But there was something about the bitterness behind her sarcasm, the hollow look in her eyes–it made him feel like she was slipping further and further away from him.

That sensation–that he was about to lose her–made his chest clench.

Unsettled and anxious, he forgot to argue. He just hugged Elsa tighter and muttered, distracted, “Elsa, you’re coughing up blood. Let’s get you to a doctor first.”
