Mr. Edwards' Unraveled Life chapter 43
Chapter 43Kevin held Norah tightly, wishing he could take away all her pain. His chin rested on her head as he spoke with deep regret, “I’m here, Norah. It’s okay now, everything’s okay.”
Norah buried her head in his chest, her body still trembling. She cried out, “Why did you come so late? It was almost too late… I almost didn’t see you!”
Kevin held her close, his fists clenched in anger, but he kept his voice gentle, trying to comfort her. “I’m sorry I was late. Don’t be afraid. I won’t leave you alone again.”
He had rushed over because he was worried about her, but still, he had been too late.
Norah, overwhelmed by fear and anger, hit him on the chest as she sobbed, “You always leave me! Before, now, you always abandon me.”
She couldn’t even remember how many times she had felt abandoned, and each time, it left her feeling lost.
Kevin held her tighter, wrapping his suit around her protectively. “I won’t do that again, Norah. Please, trust me this time. I’ll never abandon you again.”
