Bab 67: Messy Relationship

[Elizabeth's Perspective]

Anthony would listen to me as gently as before. He understood how I felt and wouldn't laugh at me. He would also help me deal with all kinds of things that I couldn't handle. I knew I should face all this myself, but I couldn't bear this alone. I had no choice.

As I realized that I was relying on Anthony more and more, I began to be afraid of this situation. I didn't know if I should rely on another person when I already had a mate, but I knew that we were going down a slippery slope.

I tried to play matchmaker to Margaret and Anthony, but it just wasn't meant to be. Margaret didn't care about him at all, and Anthony, while he understood me, got angry with me about it. I gave up and let myself sink deeper into my relationship with Anthony.

Yesterday afternoon, Anthony and I were left by ourselves.

Anthony gave me a hug.
