“Mom, I’m sorry. I couldn’t protect myself, and now I’ve made you sad.” Stefan’s voice was calm.
Francine looked at Stefan sadly. Her son used to be such a proud man and now he was so depressed and melancholy. The light in his eyes seemed to have disappeared. Francine was devastated seeing her son like this; it was so painful that she could hardly breathe.
“Stef. Oh son. What have you been through?” Francine hugged Stefan tightly. She couldn’t imagine the kind of torture Stefan had been through during his disappearance to become like this.
“It’s over. I don’t want to talk about it” Stefan said indifferently. He did not want to reveal anything and forbade Seraphina from saying anything.
Stefan believed what he had suffered was the consequence of his past actions. It was to repay what he owed to Renee and he deserved it. The debt was cleared and the two no longer owed each other anything. There was no need to get involved with each other again.
“Okay. Let’s not talk about it. I’m glad you’re back. It’s good that you’re back…” Francine silently wept stroking Stefan’s back the way she did when he was a child. She said softly “Don’t worry I’ll do everything I can to heal you!”
Stefan fell asleep the minute he got home. Francine however was unwilling to give up. She wanted to know who had the audacity to do this to her son.
Francine knocked on the guest room door. “Seraphina? Are you awake?”
“W-Who’s there?” Seraphina asked in a terrified voice. She had changed into her pajamas after washing up and was now curled up in bed trembling.
“Don’t be afraid child. It’s me.”
“Miss Francine please come in.” Seraphina got up and turned on the light in the room.
Francine walked in and closed the bedroom door behind her. She sat on the edge of the bed and rubbed her hands wanting to say something. “Child it’s late. You should be resting. I shouldn’t have bothered you…”
“It’s fine Miss Francine. How can I possibly sleep after all that? I’m glad you’re here to talk to me.”
“Yes I thought so too.” Francine hesitated shortly before asking bluntly “Stef was in a bad state earlier and didn’t want to talk about what happened. However I have to do something or I won’t rest in peace. You have to help me… Can you tell me about what you two have been through? Why are Stef’s eyes like this?”
Seraphina let out a long sigh and looked very sad. “Actually it was all my fault. Maybe this wouldn’t have happened if I hadn’t been selfish.”
“Your fault?” Francine was puzzled. “What does it have to do with you? Aren’t you and Stef happy together? Why would you harm him?”
“It’s precisely because Stefan and I were so close that I got him hurt.” Seraphina’s eyes were watery. “Miss Everheart is the reason why Stefan is blind. I guess she did it out of spite… Maybe she couldn’t accept how she was abandoned and retaliated in this way. Maybe her love has turned into hatred!”
“What? Renee made him blind? She doesn’t seem like someone who would do something like that.” Francine was shocked but sceptical. After all Renee had been her daughter-in-law for many years so she knew her character well.
