Dr. Kruger leaned on the wall bowing her head as she heard the little sniffles coming from inside the room after Gina stormed off. She heard some of what those two talked about.
'Strong woman'
She doesn't like that phrase either. She knew people who others think as strong are the ones carrying greatest scars in their heart, weeping silently, when no one is looking.
She closed her eyes and her nightmare came to her recollection once more. That day, she thought she did the right thing for herself and for the sake of others she'd be helping in the future. But it backfired spectacularly and not a day goes by without her regretting that decision.
But no one knows that. Everyone thinks she is a strong and kind woman who is very happy because she is successful.
Sigh!
At least I got Jeremy!
Ah... Jeremy... I can see why you want to protect her.
She talked to him and everything he said seemed so surreal. She couldn't believe it all, but she didn't doubt Jeremy's honesty either.
