I remain

AUBREY INHALES, SITTING STRAIGHTER AFTER RICHARD'S COMFORTING WORDS.

"Aubrey, I don't exactly know what happened but I know that you didn't mean for whatever it is to happen. You're a good person, I can see that. Your brother probably just misunderstood."

Aubrey forces a smile, staring at the can of soda seated beside her. She will love to think that's the case but she knows that every single step and choice she took when it came to Brady wasn't a mistake. She deliberately chose Kai over her own Brother even when she said she wouldn't. "Yeah, a misunderstanding." She shrugs, suddenly feeling better that she has cried her heart out and spoken to someone. Then she feels embarrassed, "Gosh, I can't believe I just cried my eyes in front of you." She puts her hand over a face.

"It's oaky." He laughs out loud, "You do have a variety of emotions when you're sad— I've not seen anything like that before."

"Oh so, it was entertaining?" She attacks.
