Outsider

Peter looked at Helen's pretty face sadly.

He hugged her tightly. "I don't want to lose you in this lifetime!" he blurted. There were so much pain and sadness in the tone of his voice.

Helen rubbed his back. "Honey, what's wrong? Why you acted weird today? No one is leaving you. I'm not going to leave you in this lifetime!" she assured him. "Tell me quick! What's wrong?" she implored him, feeling nervous all of a sudden. She disengaged from his tight embrace, looking deeply into his eyes.

She knew something is wrong!

Peter took a deep breath and cleared his throat. "You need to know something..."

"Whats is it? Tell me quick!" she demanded. Something tells her that what she's about to hear from him, it's gonna be bad news! based on the troubled expression that she saw on his handsome face.
