After Carmen leaves, Miya delivers hangover soup to Alex, and then walks to Aileen to help her up.
Miya frowns and asks, "Why do you drink so much?"
However, Aileen smirks. Later, she becomes unconscious. The corners of her eyes are glittering, but her tears have never fallen.
She says, "Miya, you look so beautiful."
"Why are you crying?" Miya can feel Aileen's abnormality. She remembers what the children have said. She asks, "is it because of Aaron?"
Aileen, who laughs regardless of the image, suddenly stops. She is still half sitting on the ground at the moment. When she hears Miya's words, she is a little stunned, then slowly raises her head to look at Miya's face in confusion.
Miya has never seen Aileen in such a way. In her impression, Aileen is arrogant. Even if she becomes easy-going recently, her arrogance is not lacking.
But now, Aileen's hair is messy, her clothes are dirty without any vigour.
"Tell me, okay?" Miya's voice is very soft, she raises her hand to tidy up Aileen's messy hair, and touches Aileen's face like her own child.
Aileen's eyes turn red in an instant, she raises her hand to hug Miya tightly, and buries her head in Miya's neck. "Miya, I'm really wronged."
Miya feels moist on her neck, and she can't ask about the things in the newspaper. Perhaps, she should not ask Aileen...
Miya comforts Aileen's back. She knows what Aileen is thinking, so even many comforting words are ready, she doesn’t speak out.
After a long time, Aileen finally lets go of Miya, she sits up, raises her head, wipes her tears, takes a hard breath, and then looks at Miya and says, "Miya, I will never love that person."
Miya looks at Aileen's firm eyes. She will choose to believe what Aileen says, but she will not ask why.
Aileen has been sad for a long time, she suddenly stands up and looks at the sky, "I will definitely rely on my own efforts to show him who looks down on me, he misses an excellent lady. So..."
Aileen squats down again and takes Miya's hand and says, "So, Miya, please help me. I want to become better."
Miya sees her firm eyes again and is silent for a long while.
"Miya, help me." Seeing Miya keep silent, Aileen thinks she doesn't agree, so she frowns, and her expression becomes more pitiful.
