Heartstrings on Fire

Chapter 201

Jared’s voice was low, “So I’ve always felt guilty about Ryder and my sister, because I didn’t protect him back then. He was actually a cheerful kid who loved to laugh when he was little.”

Agnes saw Jared beating himself up, and it broke her heart, but she had no clue how to comfort him.

The next day. Agnes and Ryder cycled to school together.

However, the whole trip was spent in silence.

After school in the aftemoon, Agnes, on a whim, went to see a shrink.

By evening. Agnes headed to the East Hall for a rehearsal.

The drama club members hadn’t arrived yet.

Only Kerri was there, sweeping the hall.

Seeing Agnes looking down, Kerri hurried over, “Have you figured out what’s up?”

That was Ryder’s privacy, and of course Agnes couldn’t make it public.

Agnes said, “It’s about some stuff that happened when he was a kid. But it’s a tough nut to crack because I went to consult a psychiatrist in the afternoon.”
