Bab 260: Chameleon

Abi rushed to the bathroom and washed her face. She couldn't let her grandma see that she had just cried again. She took a deep breath and fixed her hair before she left her room.

Chris was already waiting for her in the living room, sitting next to her grandmother on the sofa.

Since Abi was released from the hospital, Chris had been dropping by occasionally. He was always trying to cheer her up but Abi just couldn't make herself cheer up or smile like before. She learned how to fake a smile. She had learned how to smile with only her lips. She learned how to wear a mask. Because the pain she felt was something that even time could never heal. Her love for Alex was something that would never fade with time.

"Good morning, Chris," she greeted as she sat across him.
