Scars Of A Broken Bond by Calv Momose

Chapter: 781
It seemed like he had a disagreement with Sabrina Last night and ended up getting drunk by himself.
Freshened up and with hair towel-dried, Tyrone returned downstairs, taking a seat next to Jennie. “Your aunt dropped you off?”
Jennie nodded and said, “Yeah. Did you two have a disagreement yesterday?”
Setting aside his towel, he met her gaze and hesitated for a moment before asking, “Did she mention anything about it to you?”
“She told me that if I ever bring you up again, she’ll start resenting both of us.”
“In that case, don’t speak of me around her. Whatever happens between adults shouldn’t affect you. If you cherish her, keep
doing so.”
Jennie’s disappointment in Tyrone was evident. She chastised, “Uncle. do you realize that choosing to run away from it is a
cowardly decision? And numbing yourself with alcohol? That’s even worse. Why cave so easily? Have you truly given up on her
after just one little hurdle?”
Tyrone’s expression grew somber, and a rueful smile tugged at his lips.
Memories of Sabrina’s words the previous night surfaced. “Jennie, it’s more complicated than you know...”
“You know, I might not understand it all, but it seems Like you threw in the towel way too early. You wanted my help, and yet
you’re quitting before I do.”
“Your aunt has feelings for someone else.”
“Trevor? He’s nowhere near worthy of my aunt! Do you really believe you’re second-best to him?” Jennie retorted with clear
distaste.
Tyrone explained, “It’s not about comparing; it’s about how your heart feels towards someone. When you like someone, your
heart naturally gravitates towards them. What others do doesn’t matter much.”
“Didn’t Aunt Sabrina like anyone else before?” Jennie queried with genuine curiosity.
Taking a deep breath, Tyrone responded, a tinge of sadness in his voice, “Yes, she did.”

During their marriage, Sabrina had feelings for someone else.
He hadn’t managed to uncover who that man was.
Jennie, raising her finger as if lecturing, said, “There you have it.
Even if Aunt Sabrina had feelings for someone else, she still chose you. Isn’t that proof enough? As grown-ups put it, love and
marriage are like two different puzzle pieces. Sometimes, even if you care for someone a lot, you might not end up as a couple.
It’s Like waiting for the perfect puzzle piece to fit into your life at just the right moment. Even husband and wife can divorce. Aunt
Sabrina and Trevor’s relationship is nothing. Uncle, are you just giving up now?”
Tyrone was taken aback, lost for words.
Jennie’s words enlightened him.
She had a point. Relationships and marriages could end. Just because two people were in love didn’t guarantee a fairy tale
ending.
