Clara rushed to the balcony when she suddenly started to feel suffocating.
Alexander's words made her feel uneasy. Those words, his cries, the pleading everything felt so overwhelming that she started sobbing herself.
Clara was never used to seeing her father cry. It was shocking to her that a man who had always taken pride in himself was pleading with her.
Resting her palms on the railing, Clara took a few deep breaths. She was only concerned with getting better, and as time went on, she noticed that she was improving.
Clara stood there for a while and thought back to the times she used to wait for Alexander to share her stories. However, he lost sight of her, after he got his new family.
Clara knew that seeing him would bring back memories of the time she had spent by herself under his care, so she questioned whether she had made the right decision in agreeing with him.
