A Moment in Destiny novel Chapter 13

 

"Sherry, wait! I need to talk to you!" The woman said in a hurry.

 

Sherry and Celia exchanged a look, "Celia, take Daniel and leave first, I will be right behind you."

 

"Alright!" Celia took Daniel's hand and left the graveyard.

 

"I have nothing to talk to you about." Sherry said cold.

 

"Sherry, I know you blame me! But I really had no other choice back then!"

 

"Humph!" Sherry sneered, "Excuse me, I gotta go!”

 

"Sherry!” The woman said anxiously, "Please give Mom a change, I know that I was wrong."

 

"It's too late for that!” Sherry smirked, "From the day that you left me and Luke, you have lost your chances to be our mother. If it wasn't for you, Luke might still be alive!"

 

"L..." The woman started to cry, "I know I made a mistake!"

 

"You should apologize to Luke! If he can forgive you, then I will as well. But I am never gonna hear him say that he has forgiven you! Because some things are gonna be lost forever, once you have missed your chance! Like a person's life, once it's gone, then it's gone!” When Sherry finished speaking, she stood up straight, and walked pass the woman, and when she did, she only stared in front of her, she didn't want to see her tears.

 

She left in fast paces, but when she turned around the corner, she couldn't hold back her own tears anymore. Her mother had left her and Luke when their father died, and decided to marry another man.

 

What made her think that she could ask for forgiveness now?

 

Sherry ran away, she only wanted to get out of there.

 

Bang!

 

She ran into someone's arms, the scent of tobacco was entering her nose, the bump made her stagger, and she almost fell over on the ground, but the other person quickly reached out a hand and grabbed her.

 

A bundle of feverfew fell all over the ground, and the man yelled out angrily, "What is wrong with you?"

 

"Lam so sorry!" The tears blurred her vision while Sherry apologized to the man, but then she suddenly realized that the voice was too familiar.

 

"Are you always so rash?" The deep voice said again.

 

Sherry abruptly looked up, and she felt a rush in her head, then she took a step back and said, “Mister Rowland, how come you are here?"

 

"And what about you?" William replied after staring at her for quite a long time.

 

"Visiting a grave!” Sherry thought, that her question was weird, Mister Rowland must also be here to visit someone. He couldn't be there to just take a walk!
