The way she helped her with her son’s treatment was such a kind gesture and Delinda wanted to pay it off with empathy. “You said you are a single mother,” Marissa asked Delinda whose smile vanished from her face and was replaced by a frown. “Yeah.

Your kids‘ father also died?” Delinda asked, curiosity etched on her face. “Oh, no. No. That’s a long story. I loved him but he ditched me. Didn’t trust me. Now when he is aware of his kids, he is ready to accept them, but he doesn’t want me in his life.” Marissa smiled sadly. “So, he is your ex… and you are his ex too.

Marissa had to blink several times to control her tears, “He has moved forward and is only here in my life to meet kids.” “What if he is also thinking the same?” Delinda whispered again. “Meaning?” “What I mean to say is… Marissa… what if he also thinks that you are letting him into your life because of kids and you have moved on too.” They both jumped in panic when a loud voice rang in the hall, “Ladies and gentlemen.
