“ Then they told us you had probably fallen into the deeper part of the cliff . Philip coldly said . If we can’t find het , then we can’t . The dead can’t come back to life . ” And then they held a funeral for you .
“ But Morn really cried for a long time , holding your portrait . I remember she stayed with your black – and – white photo , not sleeping for days and barely eating . ”
Teresa paused and then continued , “ And you know what ? Right before i got the news of your car accident , I had just come from Nareigh General Hospital Mom had been hospitalized for many days ”
Jennifer froze and asked , “ What happened to her ? ”
Seeing the concern in Jennifer’s eyes , Teresa reassured her “ Don’t worry , it was just some complications caused by the flu and high risk childbirth She’s fine now . One day , let’s go see her together , ”
“ I don’t want to see her I don’t want to acknowledge her , I won’t go , Jennifer said , lowering her head
