CHAPTER 34: SOMEONE'S POSSESSION
* * *
Finally, Theo left. I dropped my body onto the long sofa and closed my eyes.
My body was still all sore. And then Theo dropped by and spent a little while for coffee, alone with me.
Ah. I have to go to the hospital soon, but I am exhausted. I need a nap. I told mama that I would just come over after lunch, and she encouraged me to get rest instead. I don't want her to see me like this, and then she will worry about me again.
Am I starting to like him? But he has a girlfriend. Besides, I had no right to like him now that I was someone's possession.
That's the right word for it. And Theo belongs to someone else. Why is it happening to me when I meet him?
For the first time, I want to love a man. But for my part, it is the last thing I should feel.
Why are things complicating my life? Do I have to chase happiness every time?
