The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

Sophia then checked the subsequent results. Alas, they all pointed to the same possibility. She felt her mind splintering, but it was only momentary, for it then reverted to normal. In reality, she’d already guessed the verdict while waiting for the results.

Putting down her cell phone, she placed both hands on her stomach. A jumble of complex emotions roiled within her. Am I happy? Sad? Conflicted? Regretful?

Meanwhile, Robin had been preoccupied the entire afternoon. When it was almost dusk, Logan came over to the shop, seemingly dropping by on his way elsewhere. However, when he didn’t see Sophia upon coming in, his brows creased slightly. “What happened? Did Sophia take the day off?”

Her voice sullen, Robin replied, “She didn’t come over the entire day. It seems that she isn’t feeling well.”

“She isn’t feeling well?” At this, Logan became a tad anxious. “I’ll go and visit her, then!”

Robin, who was cleaning the place, abruptly stilled. “You’re going over to Sophia’s place? May I tag along? I want to go and visit her, too.”
