Chapter 196

I could not let him go and make myself stay for the sake of the child. He did not like me. He was only letting me stay and taking care of me because of the child. That was it!

The more I thought about it, the more upset I felt.

It was already dark outside. I was exhausted after a long day. I told Miss Woods about it before getting up t o go upstairs and lying down.

As I lay on the bed, I tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. I had been sharing a small bed with Cecilia the last few days and the abrupt change of location made my heart empty since she was no longer around.

The wind was billowing outside the window, followed by a heavy downpour.

Unable to sleep, I looked at the time. It was midnight. I got up and stood at the balcony, looking out at the strong winds and heavy rain outside the window. I had a sudden urge to rush out and be in the rain.
