He knew what answer she would give him, but he went ahead and asked! It just gave him another heartache in the end.
âHeartache?â He was startled. His hand loosened suddenly, and the phone fell to the floor.
His hand covered his heart. Every heartbeat seemed to be tingling with pain.
He had already hypnotized his feelings. Why would his heart still ache for her?
âStop! Stop!â
He kept screaming to himself in his head, but the pain continued and did not stopâ¦
It was as if the pain would continue as long as his heart kept beatingâ¦
A week later, Valda Theller and Brian went to the night market again to pick up the custom-made dolls.
The cartoon figures she drew were suitable for making dolls. They looked almost exactly like the ones she drew.
Looking at the two dolls in her hands, Valda Theller smiled, looking happy.
