Bitterness
Two weeks later,
everyone gets busy in their lives. It has been two weeks since Mathew's funeral.
Bella and Eva reached France for Mathew's funeral. Aeryn didn't cry or say a single word. He did the rituals silently, but Eva knew his heart's condition because, back in his school days, Aeryn often talked about how his father didn't live with him and his mother, but he loved them, and they also loved him.
Eva tried to console him, but he didn't say anything.
Bella tried her best to ignore Gavriel, and she tried not to face him.
Gavriel was busy at the funeral with Aeryn, so he didn't talk to Bella. The situation was not right.
At Mathew's funeral, Lisa also came, and she tried to get close to Aeryn, but Eva wouldn't let her.
After a week, Bella went back to France while Eva stayed with Aeryn. He told her to go with Bella as he was alright, but Eva insisted on staying. Eva knew. He acted to be strong, but how broken he really was, Eva knew.
