Chương 81: The end of the beginning

Narrator

When Bella returned to the house with Carl, they meet Ray sleeping on the floor beside the mini bar. Bottles of beer were seen laying on the floor beside him. He is dead drunk Carl commented looking at his friend. There was a hint of irritation in his voice. He wondered if his friend got drunk because of Bella or he was still affected by what Ammy did to him years ago. Carl sigh and pushed the thought from his mind.

Bella nod in agreement and felt hurt seeing him like that. She was so angry at herself for leaving him like that. Why did she not clarify? She asked herself.

Yes, she asked him if he loved her but he did not reply but she could not deny, the fact that she noticed he got angry, when she asked him the question. Why on earth did she even ask about his ex. Ray obviously tried not to mention her. He talked only about the child. Bella let out a long sigh before taking in a deep breath.
