Fiona nodded slowly, her tears flowing once more. "It's just… it was so beautiful, Lena. What we had… it was everything I ever wanted. The envy of everyone. The very reason I wake up everyday with a smile on my face... And now, it's gone," Fiona said and Elena shook her head.
"I understand...."
"I'm not sure you do...."
"I certainly do. I understand, trust me," Elena said and sighed softly, brushing a tear from Fiona's cheek. "Life isn't a straight road, Fiona. It's full of twists and turns, and sometimes, the road we're on ends abruptly, and we have to find a new path. It's not easy, and it's not fair, but it's reality. And right now, your reality is that you have to move on. If not for yourself, then for your mother. You can't let Harriet win by breaking you completely and you can't keep crying this way. It's not just affecting you but your mother, me and our baby," Elena said softly.
