“You caused so much turmoil for others. The guilt eats away at me more and more every day that this happened to you. I know you’re a smart girl, but you let me down.”

This time it was my turn to see through blurry eyes. The guilt ate away at me too. I’d barely had a full meal since I’d been admitted to the hospital. I was afraid to see what I weighed. I clenched my eyes shut and tried to breathe. All I seemed to do was mess up everything for everyone and that truth fed my guilty side.

“In spite of what’s occurred, I find myself asking the same question often.” I frowned, opening my eyes. “If you hadn’t been training at World Cup, would we have ever found out that you were sick before it was too late? That is the one and only thing I can be grateful to Konstantin for—he watched you like a hawk and reported to me quite often. He was the one who reached out to me in the first place to advise me something was maybe wrong with you. I’ll never forget getting the call or what he said. I’ll forever be indebted to him for that, but I’ll never forgive him for what he did to you. He was more than just a friend. So if you think that as time passes I’ll have a change of heart, I won’t. One day…” He paused as his voice started to crack. “One day when you have kids, because you will make me a grandfather,” he said, and tears streamed down my cheeks, “you’ll understand how I feel and why I’m doing what I am.”

I let out a sob. Using my sweater sleeve, I wiped my tears away.
