Love is Like Dust Drifting AwayChapter 1
After my mom suffered a sudden heart attack, Kendrick Alcott finally agreed to come with me to visit her.
But on the way, he got a call and left me stranded on the highway.
"I have an urgent matter to attend to. You'll have to visit your mom by yourself this time."
As the rain poured down, I looked around for help, but there wasn't a single car in sight.
I ran through the storm for two hours. When I finally reached the hospital, all I saw was my mother's body covered with a white sheet.
Just as I broke down in the morgue, sobbing uncontrollably, Kendrick's call came in.
"Kendrick, where are you?" I asked, still crying.
However, instead of the concern I expected, I heard a woman's flirtatious voice in the background.
"Kendrick, we're almost at the room. Don't be in such a hurry."
Then the line went dead. Suddenly, it all became clear.
I realized that at the moment I needed Kendrick most, he was busy with someone else.
"So this is your urgent matter?" I thought bitterly.
It wasn't until my mom's body was cremated that Kendrick finally replied with a message.
[Can you stop being so unreasonable? She really needs me right now!]
