In My Desperate Time

I really don't know what I can do to help.

I've said harsh words to Steven before. I even haven't contacted him or meet him recently, except at their wedding.

I've thought that should be enough.

But I haven't expected that he would be so persistent.

"I don't know. I really don't know. That's why I come to beg for your help." Violet holds my hand tightly and says sincerely, "I know that I've done something wrong. It's OK if you want to hit me or scold me, as long as you can cheer Steven up. Even if that means I have to divorce him. I really love him and don't want to see him this upset."

Even a divorce?

Violet must really love Steven that she would rather let him go to make him happy.

Steven is my friend and I will help him even if Violet doesn't come to ask for my help.

"I see. I'll try. Give me some time to think about it and I'll contact you as soon as possible."

"Thank you, Jane. Only you can help Steven now."

Violet says to me gratefully.

Then we chat about something else, but she's obviously absent-minded.
