Can’t Win Me Back

"Oh? Hey, Jasper." A look of surprise flashed across Justin's face.

He was still holding up the bowl in his hand.

Jasper snapped back to his senses.

In a low voice, he responded, " Hey, Justin." "Since Jasper's here, it won't be appropriate for me to stay." Justin placed the bowl down gently and gave Alyssa a caring smile.

"Ms. Alyssa, remember to eat and rest up well.

I shall not stand in the way.

See you." "That's alright!" Without warning, Alyssa grabbed onto Justin's arm.

She forced herself to hold back her tears and appear indifferent.

"Leave after I finish the soup." "But..." "Even though Mr. Jasper is here, I don't feel it's inappropriate for you to stay, Justin." Suddenly, Alyssa glanced over at Jasper, who was standing straight over there.

She curled her lips upward into a smile he hadn't seen in along time, stimulating his senses.

"Mr. Jasper, you don't feel that it's inappropriate in any way for you to meet with your own brother, do you?" Jasper uttered, "Not at all." Alyssa smiled.

"That's good to know." They used to be a couple who loved one another so passionately and deeply with their souls.

Yet, they were even more distant than estranged spouses at this very moment.

Jasper's chest rose and fell slightly.

He walked to Alyssa and presented the bouquet of lilies to her with both hands.
