Chapter 8

Chapter 8 

When I walked into Anthony’s hospital room, he’d just woken up, looking pale as a ghost.

When he saw me, his eyes, which had been dull, suddenly brightened with excitement and urgency. He sat up in bed, almost desperate.

“Kayla, you finally agreed to see Me,” he said. 

His eyes were bloodshot, dark circles under them, and he looked like he was desperate.

He said, “Kayla, I know I messed up. Now I realize what really hurt you was Sarah. I didn’t set boundaries between us. I just thought of her as someone who needed looking after, like my sister.

“My biggest mistake was not telling you she was my ex, and that made you think the worst. I never thought about things from your perspective, and I ended up hurting you. I’m sorry. Please, give me a chance to make it right.”
