He thinks about her more often than he should. He watches her more closely than is right. He delights in spending more time with her than he should.

Rain lashed down, mirroring the tears that streamed down his face. "I'm sorry, Areum," he sobbed, his voice hoarse with grief. "I'm so sorry I was too late."
