She did not know how long they stayed hugging before Michael let go of her as he wiped his eyes.
He said, "Monica, I'm sorry."
Monica's heart hurt even more.
"I shouldn't have hugged you just now..." Michael apologized.
Monica looked at Michael's expression and felt extremely guilty.
If she had known earlier that he was going through so much in his life, she would have…
Even so, she could not give up on Finn.
All in all, she just felt bad and sorry for Michael.
"Monica, thank you for accompanying me to meet my parents today and for comforting me just now." Michael suddenly forced a smile on his face. Then, he said, "I'm going back now."
He did not pester her or beg her to stay with him because he was down.
He was sensible and educated enough to leave. He would never do anything that would make things difficult for her.
Monica looked at Michael sitting in the car with his eyes still red.
