For a few more moments, I could only hear sobs in that room even the sound of the machine attached to him. I felt the movement of his hand I was holding, so I was alert and quickly looked up at him. My eyes watered when I saw him staring at me with a small smile on his face.
"H-Hector!" I exclaimed and cried again. "W-what happened? Why… Who did this to you?"
"I-I'm sorry…" he said in his hoarse voice so I was stunned and looked up at him again. His eyes were full of guilt as he looked at me.
"I-I'm sorry I didn't get to protect you. I'm sorry I was late… again. I'm sorry, Solei. I'm sorry," he said repeatedly and his eyes finally blinked because of the tears that came out of there.
There was some kind of pain that drew in my heart as I watched him. He was so remorseful that he started to cry like this. Only now have I seen this side of him. I always see him as a cold, stone-hearted man. I don't know how I'm going to feel but I feel like I'm hurting too.
