Ch 43: I will let you have your way but I will remain InCharge [pt1]

“Maya, I know this is a tough time for you but you need to pull yourself together and act strong. Do you need me to help you get over this grief briefly?”

As soon as Yohan asked this question, he knew that Maya would agree to be helped. She was going through a grief-filled phase which made her emotionally vulnerable.

And not only that. She also had no one else to lean on right now. The only other family member, her mother, was all but a stranger to her. Because Yohan knew all that about Maya, he decided to confront her.

“You will help me forget my grief? Is that a good idea? I read somewhere that grief should not be suppressed and -”

“Shhhh. Everything will be alright Maya. you just need to let me help you. Let yourself go and forget your sadness.”

Somehow, Yohan knew exactly what to say in this situation. He could see that Maya was folding under his pressure.

“A-Alright. I trust you so I will allow you to help me.”
