Whispers Turn to Whimpers: Could He Ever Change?

Could it be that he still had feelings for Sherilyn?

“Alright then.”

Gilbert, with a cigarette dangling from his lips, pointed to Sherilyn’s right hand. “Her hand’s injured. You better rush her to the hospital.”

“What?” At that, Edgar was shocked.

He hurriedly looked at Sherilyn, and upon seeing her hand, he clenched his teeth and smacked his forehead in frustration. “Damn it!”

“Don’t!”

Sherilyn quickly grabbed him. What was there to blame himself for?

“Let me see.”

Edgar, afraid to hurt her, reached out his hand tentatively. “Where’s the injury? How did it happen? Is it bad?”

“Here…”

Sherilyn lifted her right hand towards him. “Cut by glass. It’s not serious…”

“How can it not be serious? You’re bleeding so much…”

“Ah.”
