In My Desperate Time

What?

Steven's words are like piercing swords that just struck into my heart.

I sit with my mouth slightly agape, and I'm unable to say a word for a long time.

How is this possible? Steven has always known that it is Whitney that has done that to me, but he never tells me about it.

My mind is bombarded with too many thoughts and I'm overwhelmed with many complicated emotions. I don't even know how to react to him after hearing the truth.

I have trusted Steven so much. But, in the end, I realize that it is he who has caused so much pain to me. How can I accept this?

"Why are you doing this to me?"

After a while, I question him in a trembling voice.

"Because I love you endlessly and nothing is going to change that. I love you so much, so how can I watch you and Frances be together? The days when you were by his side were too painful for me. Do you know how happy I was when you had finally left him? I thought I finally have a chance. But even if you left him, you still have him in your heart. I am jealous, but I can't do anything to change you. I'm sorry for being too selfish."

Steven's expression is full of despair.

I think he must also be suffering in great pain these days.

But who should pay for the pain I suffer?
