As soon as he got up, his eyes fell on the girl next to him who was sniffling like a child with tears flowing down her cheeks.
"Sweetheart! Why are you crying?" Adam asked her as he cupped her face with his palms. "I am sorry."
Stella didn't reply to him but her tears kept on flowing out of her eyes.
"I am so sorry. I didn't mean to hurt you." Adam apologized to her as he wiped her tears away with his thumbs.
He wanted to punch himself in the face so badly at the moment. How could he make her cry like this?
"Stella? Talk to me please. Say something, anything at all. Scold me all you want, but just don't cry." He spoke up bringing her closer so that her head was now resting on his shoulder. He hugged her tightly.
He patiently waited for her to stop crying as he rubbed her back trying to comfort her. Every now and then, he would ask her to stop crying.
