In My Desperate Time

I don't even dare to imagine how long these painful days will last.

Knowing that Penelope's illness is so serious, and even not knowing how much longer she can live, how can I bear to be separated from her forever?

If this continues, there might never be a chance for us to see each other again.

However, I also know very well that the decision Frances makes is the best.

Before I know the truth, I might have misunderstood his motive. But now, I understand everything. I should believe in his decision.

In the end, I can only take a deep breath and hold back my tears, whispering to him, "Frances, is this the only way? I'm really reluctant to part with you and our children. I'm afraid I won't be able to control myself."

"You can do it. For the sake of my and our children's safety, you can do it. Darling, wait for me. Also, you can't tell anyone what I told you today. The less people know about this, the safer you and the children will be. I even hope that your memories will be erased immediately and you will forget what I said."

"However, before that, Jane, can you take good care of yourself? You've lost too much weight in the past year, and you're haggard. I feel really distressed when I look at you."

He lowers his head and kisses me on the lips.

I finally calm down a little, and I nod at him.
