---- Erica draped her coat over my shoulders and touched my face gently. Ina tender voice, she said, "Then you should put on more clothes. Look at your hands. They're freezing. By the way, what did you wish for just now?" I stared at her blankly as she continued playing the role of a devoted wife. "T made some wishes for us... and for my father," I replied. Erica's expression stiffened, and she looked at me for along moment before she started preaching. "Jace is your half-brother, after all. You are family. He's heartbroken that Kenneth's gone too. You're each other's only family now. It's been three years already. Maybe it's time-" "T understand," I cut her off. "I won't make trouble anymore." I'd already gone to court, and Jace wasn't convicted. I didn't appeal back then. Even if I withdrew the letter ---- of forgiveness now, it wouldn't change anything. Erica quietly let out a breath of air she'd been unconsciously holding. She smiled and visibly relaxed. "It's so good that you're finally letting go, Julian. New year, new beginnings. From now on, let's live well together. We'll be so very happy. I just know we will," Erica rambled. I listened quietly without saying a word and went home with her. Tori had already left. Erica said she had some work to do in the study room. I sat in silence as emotions surged violently through me until I finished printing the divorce agreement. Without hesitation, I signed it and headed straight for the study. To my surprise, I found the door half open, but no one was inside. It was the first time I had entered Erica's study. It was tidy and clean. On the desk was a photo of Jace. On the ---- corner of the desk lay several pieces of paper, on which she had written his name over and over. Each careful pen stroke spelled out a deep-seated crush. I thought I would be able to face the truth calmly by now. But it turned out that I had overestimated myself. I felt a suffocating ache in my chest that threatened to tear me apart. It hurt so much that I could barely breathe.
