"I told you, what happened to me is not your responsibility. What I did was purely because I wanted to protect you. There's no debt between us, if I don't I'll regret it for the rest of my life."
"I feel like I owe you my whole life."
"You've paid for it by looking after me this week. We got here don't have to discuss any debt." And my eyes warmed up as she said it while smiling lightly and without burden.
"Why are you so good to me now. You weren't like this." He breathed hearing my words.
"I was late realizing I was looking to the wrong place until you snatched the other one. Like I said, I regret not treating you better before and when I realized you were with someone else. It's not wrong that you can't accept me, my own fault, all this time we were more like good friends and even close family. What I told you all of a sudden like that was unfair. I do suck. I told you it's my only regret if I die." He laughed a little, I could not answer him and could not return his gaze.
"That's it... I know this conversation cornered you. Forget I said this." He patted my arm gently and averted his gaze, turning the conversation to a few things later.
Andrew was good, I was touched that he understood what I felt about his sudden confession and was willing not to force things. As he said, my heart already belongs to another.

I went back to Montreal, Auntie was at her house when I drove Andrew to her house, it was my duty.
"Darling thank you for taking care of this big baby. Auntie knows you're the best and most reliable."
"Auntie is my duty, I owe Andrew a great debt."
"What debt, he did it because he loved you. Not really my son." I can only smile not knowing how to answer this.
"Alright, thank you for reminding Auntie she intends to work with her unfavorable condition. He's not going anywhere until the doctor lets him."
"Andrew has always attached great importance to Aunt's work."
"Eliz, go home." He told me to go home now.
"Well, if you need anything, you know where to find me. I'll see you tomorrow." Anyway in front of Aunt I have to behave better, Andrew is hurt because of my problems.
"Yes I'm fine, you don't have to worry. Go home." He kindly threw me away.
"You can come whenever you want, baby. Anybody can be here, this is your house too." My aunt smiled at me and wished our relationship was more than it should be.
"Yes later I will definitely be here again Auntie. I'll go home first. Andrew I'm home." I'm just in the position of saying I'll come again because that's what I can promise now.
"Yes go home. Don't worry about me, I'm fine. Do your job."
Somehow I was able to survive Aunt's expectations, I hope she didn't push me too far, however it's our personal feelings. Although Andrew understood, .. but if he did talk to my mother and my mother supported him, I had to prepare for the disappointment of many people.
I hope Mom lets me choose according to my heart.
