Looking into each other's eyes, Alyssa's bloodshot eyes gradually filled with tears of agitation and sorrow.

Jasper came out to see her.

Did he know she had been watching him the whole time? Did that mean that deep within him, he still had feelings for her and that she was someone special to him? Alyssa's lips parted slightly.

The tip of her nose was red.

As she lay on her back and looked at Jasper, she mumbled in a miserable and coquettish voice, "Jasper...

He glanced at her silently for a while before asking in a hoarse voice, "What are you still doing here?" A huge drop of tear rolled from the corner of Alyssa's eye, reflecting how weak and fragile she was.

She wanted to say something, but all that escaped her were sobs.

She couldn't bring herself to say anything.

Staring into her tear-filled eyes, Jasper frowned.
