Waylen’s body was cool, and Rena felt comfortable leaning against his chest.
He whispered in her ear gently, “Rena, can you tell me what you really think? I’m your husband. You can tell me anything… I’ll listen to you from now on, okay? I won’t do anything you don’t like.”
Rena didn’t answer.
Of course, he had heard what she said to the therapist. The whole world did.

He was afraid that he would irritate Rena, but after a while, Rena said softly, “Waylen, can you help me find another therapist? I’ll go by myself in the future.”
They shared two young children, and neither of them wanted a divorce.
Since she had mental problems, it was only right that she sought out the professional help of a therapist.
But as a fragile woman, Rena didn’t want her husband to know everything that was going on in her head. There were some wounds that she needed to tend to by herself, no matter how long it took.

Thanks to Aline, Rena’s wounds were torn open for the public to see.

The next second, she smiled. “It’s delicious! The matcha taste in this is very pure.”
Vera immediately waved her hand and asked the shop assistant to pack two more orders.
Rena couldn’t help but stare at her friend as she did so. When Vera turned around and met Rena’s intent gaze, she touched her face self-consciously and asked, “Why are you looking at me like that? You’re scaring me!”
Rena stirred the coffee gently and smiled. “Vera, can you believe we’ve known each other for twelve years?”
