But Karen couldn't find solace in those words.
Losing Kenneth, who loved her so dearly, was a reality she couldn’t accept.
“Honey, I think Dorothy might be awake… Do you want to go check on her?”
He thought getting Karen to move around might help, instead of sitting there, drowning in tears.
But Karen’s body stiffened, her eyes brimming with tears.
“I’ll go in a bit, I just need a moment to gather myself.”
Karen took a deep breath, her sobs breaking through now and then, her eyes red and swollen, her nose tinged with the same hue, “Even though I know that Kenneth made his own choice, it’s just so hard. On one hand, there’s Kenneth, who treated me like his own sister, and on the other, my best friend. I just—”
She couldn’t finish, but Jeffrey understood.
“If I could do it all over again, if it meant Kenneth could come back to life just once, I’d even kneel before Dorothy, begging her to accept my brother’s love, even if just for a day! So he could leave this world without any regrets.”
Karen knew that even if given another chance, Kenneth, being so hopelessly devoted to Dorothy, would still choose to sacrifice himself for her cure.
She couldn’t blame Dorothy, nor did she want to.
It was guilt that weighed on her heart.
Why hadn’t she helped Kenneth fulfill his wish while he was alive?
“Ever since we were kids… Kenneth always looked out for me.” Karen’s voice broke, unable to speak continuously, “Anything I wanted that our parents wouldn’t buy, I just had to ask him… and he’d get it for me!”
Jeffrey held her close, his own heart aching, “Stop, honey, please don’t.”

I don't agree with not letting him in. That just seems cruel and besides wasn't the whole point of getting pregnant again was for him to experience and travel the journey of pregnancy with her?...
Sometimes Karen can be such a drama queen and immature....
