Wayne Bailey frowned, unable to count how many times he had fallen, only to get up from the snow again.
His knees were raw to the bone, yet he felt no pain…
Furrowing his brow amidst the wind and snow, his head throbbed uncontrollably, unable to distinguish which way led home.
What echoed in his mind were Anna Jadwin's words from inside the Globe; her every bit of grievance and her unspoken love for him.
He thought of Anna Jadwin's promise to him, that no matter what happened, she would never push him away or leave him again…
She promised him she would always be by his side, although in the end, it was he who drove her away.
But she had also said, as long as he needed, she would be there for him.
Saying that when she saw him hurt, it pained her more…
Wayne Bailey looked at his hands, rubbed raw and bloody, his breath growing increasingly faint.
Raphael Bailey's car was far away, monitoring Wayne Bailey's every move through a pair of binoculars.
