The words Shane said the previous night had genuinely hurt her.

The man did not even want to see her. As a result, she did not have the chance to tell him about the identity of the two children.

“Damn! He’s taking it out on the children. Why’s he acting as such! It’s ridiculous!” Joyce scowled in dissatisfaction.

Natalie put down the towel. “His attitude did a sudden one-eighty yesterday. Even until now, it still feels so unreal.”

“Nat…” Joyce looked at her worriedly.

However, Natalie shook her head. “I’m fine. I just feel a little tired. I still don’t know how long he’ll ignore me for though.”

“What are you afraid of? Just talk things out with him,” replied Joyce.

However, Natalie smiled bitterly. “It’s not that easy. I already thought of doing that yesterday. I tried to talk to him twice, but he refused to say anything. That’s why I feel so tired.”

She then looked up at the ceiling.

A frown appeared on her friend’s face as she chided, “I really don’t know why he’s keeping all this in his heart. It’ll only worsen the misunderstanding between the two of you.”

 

“Yeah. But if he doesn’t want to talk, what can I do?” Natalie shrugged.

Joyce then looked her in the eye and said, “Find a chance to talk to him again.”
