Imelda's soft words cut Lola so deeply that she resumed sobbing aloud.
Lola shut her reddened eyelid tightly. She wanted to badly vaporize from the surface of the Earth.
'What was the point of living when the people she cared about the most betrayed her in the most hideous manner?' Lola pondered.
"I loved him..." Lola's croaked voice echoed in the room as she continued to cry bitterly. "He said he loved me too. I swear I've never cheated on him with anyone. How could he do this to me? How could he cheat on me with my best friend? All I did was try to save his life and I got abused for it."
Imelda was moved to tears by Lola's heartbreaking revelation. She blinked severally to stifle her tears while consoling Lola.
"Shhh... It's okay, sweetheart. Don't hurt yourself any further by thinking about it."
Imelda's attempt at consoling Lola proved abortive as the latter kept on voicing her grievance.
