Chapter 127: Leave It To Me

While sitting there and comforting her it had occurred to Bryan that she had likely been so upset over the prank because she had lost someone that way in the past, and the prank had brought back the painful memory. 

Sonia drew in a deep breath, and then cleared her throat, "My biological father. He worked as a lifeguard at a beach," Sonia explained with a distant look in her eyes. 

She had been just ten years old when her father died, and although she loved swimming because it reminded her a lot of her father who had taught her to swim, seeing Bryan in the water earlier had made her feel like she was about to lose someone special to her once again to water. 

"I'm sorry I brought back such a painful memory," Bryan said apologetically.
