A clear rejection is always better than a fake promise.
That's what Hena did.
"I don't love you."
She gave her answer.
No maybe.
No excuses.
Just a straight answer.
As Jammy had said.
She didn't use words that would comfort him. She gave him all the pain at once so that he could deal with it at once as well.
Silence reigned in Salmon's stomach as all eyes now focused on Draxus.
The man had gone pale after hearing those clear words.
No one had the heart to comfort the man.
He had loved Hena all his life, and that same girl said she doesn't love him.
That would have felt like a betrayal.
But was it?
"I want to say something." Jammy spoke.
All heads turned to the janitor.
But no one stopped him this time.
The old man might be weird but he somehow says the right things at the right times.
