Whispers Turn to Whimpers: Could He Ever Change?

Francis's brows were furrowed so tightly, a rare spark of urgency flickered in his eyes, "You can't talk about Gilbert like that!"

"What do you want me to do then? Just the thought of my Gilbert being gone... and him taking Gilbert's place, it just breaks my heart... Gilbert, my dear Gilbert! Sob..."

Chasing after Gilbert was definitely not an option now.
