Can’t Win Me Back

All of a sudden, a glimmer flashed across Lauren's clear eyes.

She stared straight at the audience.

Her lashes fluttered, and her pink lips started quivering.

Her eyes turned red.

They glistened as she welled up with tears.

"Darling.

Darling? Are you okay?" Landon started panicking when he noticed that Lauren was crying.

"A-An-Angie..." Lauren stuttered.

Her lips trembled, and her voice was extremely raspy, as if she had been parched for a long time.

Though her voice barely rose above a murmur, Landon caught every word.

He heard her loud and clear! "Lauren! You...

You can speak?" Landon was so agitated that tears filled his eyes.

He lost it.

" Lauren! You really can speak?" "Lan-don..." Lauren lifted a finger and pointed to the spot below the stage nearest to them.

She had a wide smile on her face, yet tears were streaming down her cheeks.
