Still You Still Me Still Falling novel Chapter 81

Sheila watched that video several times before finally saving it.

How could Tilly be so adorable?

She just didn't know what was really going on between Tilly's mother and Edmond.

For the next few days, the interactions between Edmond and Sheila could actually be considered peaceful.

Mainly because Sheila seemed to have suddenly changed her tune, no longer clashing with him.

Even when Edmond was being overly critical and completely unreasonable, she didn't lose her temper.

It takes two to tango, and no matter how he verbally provoked her, Sheila simply didn't take the bait.

She faced him calmly and responded indifferently. It was only then that she realized how truly awful Edmond's attitude toward her was.

She didn't understand what right a cheating scumbag had to criticize her approach to relationships.

Maybe it was because of that "just playing around" comment she made when they broke up.

It had trampled his male ego into the dirt.

Even after three years, he was still holding a grudge.

But he never stopped to think that when she said it was just a game, she might not have meant it.

Meanwhile, he was the one who had actually been two-timing, having the time of his life playing the field.

But Sheila wasn't going to bring up the past with him now.

Whatever Edmond was doing now, or whatever he did in the future, had nothing to do with her.

She just needed to do her job.

His attitude and opinions of her didn't matter in the slightest.

Yet, ironically, the more she tolerated and backed down, the more... bizarre his attitude became.

Yes, bizarre.

Sometimes Sheila wondered if Edmond was losing his mind.

Otherwise, why would he become so moody and unpredictable?

He had previously claimed Cecil was the temperamental and moody one.

Clearly, he was infinitely worse.

"If I stay in this room any longer, I'm going to grow mold!" he complained.

He was dying of boredom!

Sheila quipped, "You've been in the hospital so long, you're devolving?"

Cecil burst out laughing. "Can't a guy make a joke? I'm sick of this room, walk with me outside?"

That she could do.

The two of them headed to the hospital's small garden.

As they chatted about funny memories from their childhood, bright smiles lit up both their faces.

Although they had been poor back then, they had shared so many genuinely happy moments.

It was hard to find anything that brought such pure joy nowadays.

But back then, a single piece of candy, a pack of cookies, or an ice cream cone was enough to make their hearts soar.

As they were laughing, Cecil suddenly stopped in his tracks.

Sheila followed his gaze and saw Edmond.
