Seconds ticked by and slowly, it became an hour ever since Mrs. Wyatt left Arissa all alone in her room, after giving her some words of comfort and encouragement.
Arissa's heart was heavy as she lay down on her bed, staring out her window in thought. She kept on wondering about what Mrs. Wyatt disclosed to her and it increased her fears of having kids.
She began to ask herself if all parents are the same. Her parents are monsters and going over to Nicklaus's mother, she does not know what to name the woman as, and for fuck sake, why would Nicklaus call that woman his first love?
After hurting him as heavily and damaging him as she did, Nicklaus had love for her. Was he alright?
Arissa believed he must have been still little when he experienced all of these. It made her put herself deeply into his shoes and she began to understand and see reasons why he said no one would ever love him.
