Chapter 1143


    Nicole spoke to Nina slowly, hoping to help her out of the agony she was in. “Nina, you’ve fallen too deep


    into the whirlpool of your emotions. Listen to Mommy. He’s gone, and you won’t meet him again. Think of


    him as a dream, one that will fade away with the wind, and live on for yourself.”


    A dream… Fade away with the wind…

    The idea of forgetting her love made Nina’s heart ache, and she felt as if she was suffocating.


    “Mommy, I can’t do it. I’m not thinking about him. I-I don’t want to be like this, but the harder I try to forget


    him, the clearer he appears in my mind, messing around in my heart. Mommy, I… I really can’t do it. I


    can’t forget about him…” Nina cried out in agony.


    Her mother’s heart ached when she saw her pain-etched face, and the former took Nina into her arms.


    “Nina, wounds will heal over time, and especially heartbreaks, they take a longer time. Don’t force


    yourself and let time do the work. Mommy believes you can do it one day.”


    Tears rolled down Nina’s face fiercely as she cried for her unrequited love.


    If I forget about Chris one day, will I be someone different? Will my heart not be the same?


    Nicole whispered words offort as she gently wiped her daughter’s tears. “Nina, don’t lock yourself up


    and be alone. Try to make yourself busy. It’ll help you in forgetting him.”


    At that, Nina nodded.


    “Alright. Drink some water and get some sleep. After you wake up, go help Maya with her preparations


    for the Gourmet Conference. You’re her older sister, so give her some support, okay?” Nicole suggested


    Nina help Maya, hoping that that would give Nina a break from reliving the memories that only caused


    her pain.


    “I understand, Mommy.” After drinking a ss of water, the girlid on her bed, tossing and turning as her


    mind kept imagining things. She couldn’t seem to fall asleep.


    Nicole sat at the front of the bed, apanying her daughter. “Nina, calm down. Sleep well and once


    you wake up, go help Maya.”


    Nina closed her eyes and nodded faintly. Clearing her head while gripping on her Mommy’s hand, she


    finally fell asleep.


    Looking at her daughter suffering from lovesick, Nicole’s heart was bitter.


    Nina’s so young, yet she’s going through heartbreak.


    What can I do to make her feel better?


    I must think of a way to help her. This must not go on.


    Nicole waited until Nina fell into a deep sleep and covered her with nkets before exiting the bedroom,


    closing the door without making a sound.


    By the time Nina woke up, it was already nighttime. Sitting up on her bed, a faint smile found its way up


    her face.


    She had a dream, a dream with her beloved in it…


    She dreamt of Chris teaching her about customizing new skincare products. The man was gentle when


    he took her hands in his and showed her the way to determine the better ingredients. He also showed


    her the different colors each ingredient may show when they were mixed with the others, helping her


    write everything down clearly so that she could try them on her own.


    When he finished jotting down the notes, he looked at her. “Nina, I heard that there’s a Rose Garden at


    your house and that there are many flowers in the garden. Let’s go pluck some flowers. I’ll make you a


    flower wreath.”


    Nina looked at him, surprised. But a sweet smile soon appeared on her face, and she chirped, “Sure…”


    She woke up from her dream after that scene. She was still smiling, but tears started welling up in her


    eyes.


    Chris, we can still be together…


    I can be with you in my dreams.


    I’ll study hard during the day and see you in my dreams during the night. Will that mean we’re still


    together?


    Tears trickled down her fair cheeks as she thought of her the man she loved.
