Chapter Forty-three
Henry
I knock on the door slightly before walking in. I look at Jayde and watch her wipe off the tears from her cheeks.
I don't know why she's doing this but it shows how brave she is. I've been trying my best to stop myself from falling in love with her because I don't want to be left alone and I don't want to face the penalty that comes with it.
"Hattie, why are you here," I ask her instead. Her face is reddish from crying. I wonder why it's so painful to her. Is it because I said I never loved Hattie?
But well, I never did. It was her fault, she shouldn't have fallen in love with me.
"There's something she wanted to tell you but she couldn't do it herself. So, she came here to beg me to do it on her behalf. What are you doing here by the way?"
I look up at Declan, " I was going by and I decided to say hi."
" There's something you need to know."
