Bab 281: 281- Get Lost, Rafael

(One week later)

"Marissa!" Marissa almost jumped in fright when Sophie placed her hand on her shoulder, "I'm sorry. It's just me."

Marissa raised her palm and turned back to the window. Kids were busy playing in the garden while Abi was sitting at the side with Georgie beside her. She was talking to him with wild gestures of her hands.

"She is just like Valerie," Sophie remarked casually.

"Yeah. But a better human," Sophia nodded with a smile, 

"No doubt in that, buddy!" Sophie walked away from the window and that was when she found the untouched bowl of chicken corn soup placed on the nightstand.

Oh, brother. Marissa isn't ready to focus on her diet.

 Sophie's smile faded as she turned her attention to Marissa, "Look, Mar. I know this isn't easy… None of this is. But life keeps moving, even when it feels like it has ended for you."
