When Love Comes Late
He desperately clutched at branches and somehow managed to stop his roll.
Lying on the ground, he attempted to rise, but a sharp pain radiated from his back.
A subdued hiss escaped his lips as he slowly regained his feet.
Despite the cold and pain gripping his body, thoughts of Miley waiting spurred him onward.
His physical discomfort was nothing.
The pain increased, but Neville pressed on, one step at a time.

He wiped his face, his tense expression slightly softening.
He located the specified area from the message and cautiously opened the door to ensure the surroundings were safe.
As soon as he entered, he spotted Miley lying on the floor.
Neville rushed to Mileyâs side and helped her up.
The scars and the weariness etched on her face made him feel a deep sense of sympathy.
âMiley, itâs me, Neville.

His hand reached out for Mileyâs face, but it froze mid-air.
He was afraid heâd hurt her.

âAre you okay? Do you feel any discomfort?â
Miley shook her head, concern evident as she noticed the blood on Nevilleâs body.
âYouâre injured.
Does it hurt?â
Neville brushed off her question.
He casually glanced at the scratch.
âItâs just a scratch.
Nothing serious.
â
He then turned to the relentless rain outside.
âOnce the rain eases up a bit, weâll head down the mountain.
â
He grabbed his phone and confirmed what he expected-there was no signal at all.
He sat Miley up and settled beside her.
Mileyâs gaze locked into him for what felt Like an eternity.
A Lump suddenly formed in her throat.
She had many grievances she wanted to voice, but she knew it was inappropriate-theyâd already broken up.
