บท 730: I Wish You Were Here

Day Seventy-Seven…

~~*****~~

Badum! Badum! Badum!

Kathleen's heart was running wild against her chest, her face blushing. She didn't expect that Stephen would suddenly hug her.

'Why? Why is he hugging me?' Her eyes filled with hope, thinking she had a chance to get noticed by Stephen. If he was heartbroken, then she might be able to fill the emptiness in his heart.

"Steph? Are you okay?" Kathleen finally found her voice.

"Kath… I'm sorry," Stephen apologized to her out of the blue.

She was puzzled as to why Stephen was apologizing to her. "For what?"

"For not reciprocating your feelings. I know how it feels to have an unrequited love. You can stop now… Kath. You deserve to have someone who will love you back."
