Sweet Sorrow

Three days later, Nicole's mother was transferred to the general ward.

Nicole hadn't slept well for the past three days. Obviously, she looked haggard and thinner.

"Sister, you stay here and look after mom. I'll go buy some porridge. Mom may want to have some when she wakes up." Seeing that his sister was in a bad mental state, Jim put her down on the chair beside the bed, picked up his bag and walked out of the ward.

Nicole, who had stayed up for several days, was slow to react. When she nodded her head and agreed, Jim had left.

Nicole turned her head slowly and stared at her mother lying on the bed, motionless.

In the past three days, she had thought a lot, including high school, University, marriage and divorce, her miserable past, and her black future.

And she also though about Jacob.

If she hadn't met Jacob, she would have been just an ordinary girl who had a normal relationship, or met a scum like Austin, or she wouldn't have met one. She was thinking about that kind of life. What she saw was grey, dull, lifeless and without waves.

And in her memory, only Jacob was colorful and dazzling. He was light. A flying moth darts into the fire. Jacob was the fire. Perhaps in the eyes of others, moths were overconfident, but only moths knew how dazzling the fire was.

When she knew the reason why her mother fainted, she hated both Jacob's mother and even him.

But when Jacob was away these days, Nicole calmed down at one point one. She knew that it was not his fault. And she couldn't live without Jacob.

Swoosh... Judy, who was lying quietly, suddenly let out an uncomfortable gasp. Startled, Nicole stood up all of a sudden.

"…… Mom? " She clenched her fists to suppress the excitement in her heart and called in a low voice.

"Nicole..." Judy slowly opened her eyes and closed them again because they were stung by the light.
