บท 28: Chapter 28

Marylin's POV

He really did it for me, I thought as I broke down in his arms, crying. "Shhh", he tried to soothe me but I cried harder. For five years he was miserable too. I thought he didn't love me but he loved me too.

Alessandro hugged me close to him and I didn't hold back the sob that racked through my body. He cradled me into his chest like a mother cradles her newborn baby. It seems like hours when I stopped crying.

"Why didn't you told me before?", I said hiccupping, still clinging onto him. I don't want to leave his arms just yet.

"Because I knew you'd have come with me. You said you wanted to become a doctor because that is the only way you'll feel close to your parents so how can I take that away from you?", he said, bringing me closer to his body.

I hugged him tightly, afraid that he'll pull back. He understood what I'm thinking so he wrapped my legs around his waist and cradled my head in the crook of his neck.
