CH. 118: Doing Your Job, Doing Your Job

"Without saying anything I got myself down and then just like that left. I couldn't instantly get back up my feet but I am living now, so don't worry too much. I had hurt you even because of this, right? I am the one who should be apologizing not you. And if you keep on doing this, feeling apologetic towards me, I would keep feeling bad as well."

She smiled at him, "So let's stop here brother. Whatever happened back then. We are long past it. It is time to move forward again. It was a painful lesson for all of us but at the same time a beautiful one. Because we grew one more step, we learned another thing. The reason why it is beautiful because we get to become stronger as well. Not instantly because overcoming it is difficult but we still did. And I am proud of that me back then. So, please stop beating yourself anymore."

Dexter stared straight in her eyes and she did the same, not looking away but smiling back even.
