Karen truly detested flip-flopping on decisions.

Besides, bringing up the matter with her dad...

Well, if it ever cto that, initiating such a tough conversation would be challenging.

She found herself second-guessing. Agreeing to meet up with Jeffrey had been too hasty, lacking the deep thought it deserved.

Perhaps the best course of action was to discreetly schedule an appointment for abortion, and then let bygones be bygones.

However, now that she had promised to see him, backing out wasn't an option! Might as well hear him out and see what Jeffrey had on his mind. Then, she'd decide.

As Karen walked toward the clinic, a nagging thought kept prodding her. Jeffrey had set their meeting at the hospital-was it to show her ssecurity footage, to prove his innocence? Considering his attitude towards Paige before, it didn't seem like he was keen on rekindling anything with her. Maybe it was just his buddy asking for a favor to check on her? And Jeffrey, probably not wanting to say no and anxious about upsetting her, simply turned off his phone? Endless possibilities swirled in her head, leaving her in a chaotic mess. No matter what, it seemed none of the options were what she desired.

A few short hours later, when they met, Jeffrey seemed to have aged prematurely, the vitality that was once present in his eyes now diminished. His tall frslouched slightly against the car, a cigarette dangling from his fingers, adding a touch of defeat to his posture.

Despite this, he still managed to catch the eye of a few passing girls.

Karen had to hand it to him; his charm was something the women around him cultivated-a steady stream of them, never-ending, so no wonder he took it all for granted.

Paloma hadn't lied; Jeffrey's hands were bandaged with traces of blood seeping through, likely from his post- breakup rampage.

The man was a walking emotional roller coaster! Spotting Karen, Jeffrey straightened up and tossed his cigarette to the ground, crushing it beneath his shoe.

The awkwardness of breaking up in the morning and meeting again in the afternoon wasn't lost on Karen. "You... you're here to see Kenneth?" he asked, trying to cut through the tension.

"How did you know?" "I called Dad...I mean, your dad. He told me." Jeffrey's eyes flickered away, unable to meet hers.

They stood in silence, each lost in their own thoughts.

Impatient with his muteness, Karen eventually prodded, "Didn't you want to talk about something? Why son quiet now?" Jeffrey's head hung lower. "I don't know how to start..." "If it's that hard to say, maybe you shouldn't say it at all." Until now, she still believed he wanted to reconcile, which explained his hesitance. His struggle irritated her for no clear reason.

Why seek her out if he hadn't made up his mind? Karen turned to leave, but Jeffrey, quick on his feet, caught her wrist. "Karen, wait! Just givea moment to find the right words!" "You don't need to. If you can't even be honest, I don't think we should even be friends, let alone see each other again." "I chere to be honest!" Jeffrey was clearly anxious, his words catching in his throat, "Look, didn't you say you had something to telltoo? You go first." "It was you who wanted to meet. You go first." Karen couldn't possibly reveal her pregnancy first! She wanted to gauge Jeffrey's attitude.

"Alright, I'l say it," he said, his voice dry and tense, his whole demeanor restless. "Uh, it's about Paige Paige again! Karen had assumed he was going to talk about reconciliation! "Why does she always have to be a wedge between us!" Karen's brows knitted in frustration, "Are you sure she's your ex-girlfriend?"
