"Auntie! What does this have to do with Dorothy? It was his girlfriend who had the fight with him!"
Karen was the first to snap back to reality, quickly positioning herself in front of Dorothy.
"Why don't you ask what the fight was about, and who caused it!" Sienna couldn't hold back any longer, even lashing out at her own niece, "And you're defending her? Do you even care about Kenneth's well-being anymore? If it wasn't for your introduction, Kenneth wouldn't have ended up meeting such a person! Dorothy, right? I see you as nothing but trouble! If you didn't want to be with my son, why didn't you make it clear sooner? Let him move on? Instead, you had him help take care of your kids for years!"
In that moment, Sienna let out all the anger she had been harboring.
"My son wasted so much time because of you, and with a simple 'we're not right for each other, I don't have feelings for you,' you just left him hanging, and then had the nerve to say 'let's be friends'? What kind of friend does that? You were just leading my son on!"
"Auntie, Dorothy wasn't leading Kenneth on, she had already rejected him! And Kenneth was paid for helping with the kids. How can you blame Dorothy for that?"
"If she wasn't leading him on, then why has my son been unable to forget her for so long? Kenneth already had a girlfriend, they were even talking marriage, and yet, he still accidentally called out Dorothy's name!"
"..."
Dorothy understood then.
That was the real reason.
It was because Kenneth had called out her name in front of his girlfriend, which angered her and led her to storm off.
So much time had passed, and Dorothy thought...
That Kenneth had moved on from her.
"Dorothy, are you hurting?"
Karen pulled her aside, her voice filled with guilt.
"I'm fine, really." Apart from a dull ache, the pain had mostly subsided.
"I'm so sorry, I didn't know the whole story when I brought you here..." Karen said, lowering her head, feeling awkward, "This has nothing to do with you, Sienna is just frantic. Don't hold it against her."
