In the months that followed after Alix's revelation, things had slowly started falling back to normalcy - or maybe that was what Shui wanted to believe.
"Have you talked to Alix?"
Her sister-in-law, Nuo, asked her one day. It was evident to her how Shui had been torn apart between Jin and Alix. She especially enjoyed her friendship with Alix but now that was suddenly gone.
Shui looked up from her plate. They were currently alone at the dining area, so Nuo knew she could talk freely with her.
"I don't have anything to say to her…" Shui quickly focused back on her food.
"You look a mess, Shui," Nuo's voice was laced with concern. "I don't want you to think about her by just taking Jin into the picture. She is your friend too. You have a separate relationship with her."
Her gaze dimmed.
Friendship…I don't know what to think about that.
