Lucas gestured for the nurse beside him to take care of Thalia, then left hastily.
Claudia was also in agony. She walked over to Thalia defeatedly, wanting to pull her up, but both ended up collapsing on the ground together.
"Claudia, oh Claudia. Sob! Tell me this is all fake! They must be lying to me. Everything was fine when we left this morning, and now they're saying Dad is in a vegetative state. They're lying to me, right? Tell me!"
Thalia shook Claudia repeatedly, who could only cry. She could not accept the truth herself, so how could she convince Thalia to accept it?
Although Thalia always acted tough toward her dad, they both knew she loved him deeply. Every little prank she pulled was just to get Henry's attention. She was just a mischievous child.
'Thalia must be in unbearable pain for having to face the fact that Dad might never wake up,' thought Claudia.
She hung her head in shame, believing more than ever that it was all her fault that Henry was in a vegetative state. She leaned on Thalia's shoulder in anguish, ignoring her resistance. At that moment, Thalia was the only family she had left to rely on.
Lucas remained silent with his fists clenched; he was unsure of how to face this reality. He felt like the outsider, the least qualified to tell them not to be sad. What could he do?
"I'm really sorry..." His apology was drowned out by the sisters' cries, and no one responded to his apology.

The readers' comments on the novel: The Day I Kissed An Older Man
I haven't skipped any chapter at all. Though the story is good, it keeps going back to base one. I think this has no ending at all and somehow after reading more than 2500 chapters it's kinda tiring already. They have drained all the thrills....
Great writing! I almost cried when Helen hit Melody! So sad! 😠can’t wait to see how the relationship with her and Lucas develops though. So tired of the repetitive problems with different people....
Yikes my body tenses so much, my moods change as the scenes change. It leaves me wanting to continue reading....
my heart breaks for melody, so many ups and downs, i shed a few tears when lucas walked by melody carrying thalia, and melody stayed quiet while watching them leave. i find myself getting into character as if im one. i dont remember ever feeling like that in any other books. im thankful the 10 chapters/day. waiting for the next 10...
We have updated progress from 7 chapters/day to 10 chapters/day.<3...
i love grandma Beatrice, there needs to me more people like her in the world straight forward and to the point, no beating around the bush and worrying about offending anyone, why pretend to be someone your not....
