In My Desperate Time

It was a beautiful moment, but now it feels weird.

I know I must have asked the wrong question.

"Well, if you don't feel like talking about it, then pretend I never asked," I say to Frances with embarrassment.

I am having mixed feelings.

Sabina thinks wrongly how much I mean to Frances, and unfortunately, I've made the same mistake. I thought I could ask something like that because I felt I was special to him. How ridiculous!

Just when I think Frances wouldn't tell me, he speaks slowly.

"My father died ten years ago."

I look at him quietly and wait for him to continue. However, he falls silent.

I knew his father died ten years ago. So, can he tell me more?

But that is not going to happen. Therefore, I must fish.

I quickly search for the right words in my head. After organizing my thoughts, I say to Frances, "Well, look, no matter how it happened, we got married. Should I go with you to pay respect to your father at his tomb?"
