Joshua Sulliven stood at a standstill, staring at her hands stubbornly moving beneath the soles of his shoes, somewhat dazed.
Keira Leaf's teardrops fell one by one, pattering onto his shiny leather shoes, reflecting the lighting from the private room.
Joshua watched her tears, pursed his lips, and kicked away the fragments by his feet, which also served to move his foot away.
Keira, supporting her somewhat shaking body, kneeled on the ground, picking up the already damaged camera, trying hard to press the power button, but the screen wouldn't light up; instead, more fragments fell off.
For a moment, Keira's eyes overflowed with tears like a deluge, bringing with them all the grievances she had suppressed for so long, surging forth.
Keira hastily gathered the pieces, her heart congested, turned her head, and ran towards the door outside, not looking back at him again.
Joshua Sulliven's dark eyes dimmed, and with a raise of his hand, he pulled her back.
