"But | don't believe you can just let go."
After his mother passed away, he was heartbroken and downcast, wanting to vent the sadness within. Dorothy
could understand all that, but she couldn't grasp how Everett could claim he was suddenly over it, ready to let go
of their relationship. It just didn't sit right with her.
Over a decade together wasn't something you could just drop like a hot potato.
"I need sspace," Everett admitted, knowing full well that simply stating he was over it wouldn't convince
Dorothy.
"So, all this time, when you said you needed space, you were actually figuring out how to let go of me, of us?"
Dorothy felt her heart being squeezed at the thought!

"lI won't let you do this! Everett, you've spoiledso much, who else would ever treatlike you do if you
were gone?"
In this world, she was convinced there would never be another who could fill his shoes!
Everett looked at Dorothy, wanting to mention Kenneth, but he stopped himself before the words could escape.
He feared Dorothy might do something rash in a moment of desperation... "Everett, please, giveanother
chance."
"You've done nothing wrong; you don't need a ‘chance’ from me."

"But you're leaving!" Dorothy's eyes welled up, though she fought back the tears, "You want to let go of our
relationship, and it terrifies me."
She was willing to admit to anything, apologize for anything, whatever it took!
Everett clenched his fists, holding back the urge to embrace her. He had to act fast, to ensure Dorothy's safety
above all else.
"Dorothy, remember? | was always afraid of you leaving, you were always so decisive."
"It was always you taking the tto think about us. Now, | need to do the same."
Everett took a deep breath, "This will be my last night at Bay Residence until I've figured things out. | won't come
back."
"Everett..."
"And don't let the kids call me. You didn't use them to hold on towhen you left."
Dorothy wanted to explain she
hadn't intentionally had Abigail call him, but Everett's words made it
clea he had made up his mind. Any explanation seemed pointless now.
Though Kenneth's leg wasn't amputated, it was nearly as useless. The doctors said that even with aggressive
rehabilitation, he might manage a few steps at best, and with a limp. In the hospital, everyone kept the severity
from him, but Kenneth knew his leg was beyond saving.

Seeing her, Kenneth smiled, showing no resentment.
"Sit."
Eleanor nodded and took a seat beside him, "I'm sorry | haven't visited..."

"Who could've seen it coming? You couldn't have known."
"Kenneth." Eleanor spoke softly, "No matter what happens, I'll take care of you for the rest of my life."
