Love Began with the First Meeting

Even with her words, it never felt enough. There was a constant nagging feeling in her heart. There were signs to it; his avoidance of her visit and his disappearance with Molly.

Howling in pain, she fell on the floor, crouching and hugging herself in misery. The cold, dark room made her aware of how alone she was. There were many thoughts racing on her mind, confusing her more. All of Cindy's, Lucy's and Rory's words were echoing on her mind, replaying ceaselessly. Then, the thought of getting blind made everything worse. The constant fear was overwhelming her with pain.

Brian and Eric, engrossed on their respective minds, remained in Molly's hospital room. At this moment, it was safe to wake her up but they remained on their ground, refusing to disturb her sleep.

Eric was on his documents, reading and signing them as he kept vigil for Molly. He needed to keep up with his schedule in case Frank suspected something.

With his eyes on the screen, Brian remained fixated on typing data on his laptop nonstop. He wanted to finish his work soon. As soon as he deleted a data, another one was sent to him. Letting out a sigh, he closed his laptop and promised to resume some other time.

There was an unknown emotion in his eyes.
