In My Desperate Time

"My dad? What happened?" Frances asks lightly.

I find it strange. Fernando has been dead for ten years. Why does Sabina say that it was related to him?

"A few days ago, I dreamed about your dad."

When Sabina speaks of Fernando, I see the sadness in her expression.

"He told me he was really sorry that he left me forever before he could build a music park for me. It was not until then that I recalled before we got married, Fernando once told me he wanted to build a music kingdom for me and the location was the Golden Bay. Now, he's gone, but I still want to have his wish met. So, I'm going to buy the land. You know, although the land area is not large, its price is not cheap. I had no choice, so I sold that ring."

Now, the truth has come out.

Frances sits there without saying anything for a long time.

I don't know what he's thinking. I just sit beside him and gaze at him quietly.

I hear him say to Sabina in a hoarse voice, "You could tell
