Never Late, Never Away Chapter 366
He grabbed her arm gently and pinned her on the cupboard door. Stroking her cheeks, he asked helplessly, “Vivian William, what is it that you’re so scared about?”
What am I afraid of? Vivan asked herself the same question.
The way Finnick protected Evelyn; how he was stunned when he saw me wearing the same clothes as Evelyn; his cold face when he told me he didn’t like Blue Enchantress and wanted me to throw it away; his smile when he wished her happy birthday… Multiple upsetting images flashed across her mind.
How could all of these memories revolving around Evelyn not make me fearful at all?
He can’t seem to forget Evelyn. She has such an impact on him when she was dead, what more now when she’s not?
Thinking about all these, Vivian’s was so broken-hearted that her tears slid down uncontrollably. How long can our relationship sustain? What would be the last straw, the reason for us to split?
Keeping quiet, she continued to lower her head. Within moments, pockets of tears plopped onto the ground.
Finnick lifted her head, only to find streams of tears running down her face from her swollen, red eyes.
He sighed while attempting to use his thumb to wipe away the tears. “Is it because of Evelyn?”
Vivian did not know how to respond to his direct questioning.
Yes, I’m very bothered by Evelyn’s presence in our lives because you’ve loved her so much. Not a day has gone by with you forgetting about her in the last ten years. Her necklace, ball pen… each item left behind by Evelyn was treated so preciously. Now that she’s back, how could I not care nor think about her?
