After Jessi left him with such questions and statements, Ayden still couldn't digest it clearly. His brain suddenly lags and can't think straight.
That woman was just joking, right? He's just asking a question that requires an answer and not a statement, right?
Why does it hurt so much to hear that? Coronary arteries? Ayden felt like he just wanted to laugh.
It reminded him of a bitter incident twelve years ago. When he was only twelve years old. He could already understand what made his biological mother gone. It is the disease that is so evil that it has the heart to snatch its mother back into the arms of the almighty.
And when you heard Jessi say that? It felt like Ayden had returned to feeling the way he used to feel. His fear, his sadness, he didn't want to lose again. Even though it was Jessica, a person he just met.
