Chapitre 40: Be Prepared

Elena reached out and held Gemma's hand, gently squeezing it.

"Gemma, I'm so sorry, I have no idea how those pictures got out. I didn't even know pictures of you both were taken."

"It's not your fault. I know how they got out. I was stupid enough to think I was having fun. But I was doing it at my expense. I should have listened to you and remained home that night." Gemma had tears in her eyes as she spoke.

"Gemma, it's not like you to regret your actions, it's already happened, and there is nothing that can be done to change it. You just have to focus on getting better and move on with your life."

"No Elena, it's not that easy. I…." Gemma's voice broke and she stopped talking.

"You need to focus on getting better first. Forget about the pictures that were released, besides your family already took them down."
