So this must be what a breaking heart felt like.
Pain.
Total pain.
Curl-up-in-a ball- and sob- total pain.
Add to that total humiliation.
How was she ever going to face him again, she thought.
When she saw Kerry come breezily tripping
outside and then stop
dead, she thought her heart would stop
too.
How could he.
Never mind about Pete.
Never mind that until five minutes ago she had a ring on her finger.
She was the only one for him.
And now it was too late.
Her
fingernails dug into her palm as she felt someone slide softly
into
the chair beside her in the observation room overlooking
the
infirmary.
She looked up into Jacks fathomless eyes.
Maybe it wasn't too late...
