Melvin’s lips quivered slightly as he took a deep breath, bracing himself for the familiar feeling of suffocation that seemed imminent.

“You’re not marrying Jocelyn, not because you don’t love her, nor because you don’t want to be with her. You have your concerns, right?” Yannick had figured it out. “Zephyr said that marrying Jocelyn would solve all your problems, but that’s when your symptoms started showing up.

The numbness crept over Melvin’s body again as his lips trembled more and more visibly. His gaze was growing dimmer.

Zephyr ignored the impatient honking from the cars behind him. Thankfully, the traffic was light at the moment. He quietly followed the them and suggested again, “It’s pouring, get in the car.”

Melvin stopped and said to Yannick. “You guys go ahead. I want to walk alone.”
