Why Is He Back??

Unearthed Regrets

As Zack drove towards Olivia's home, a knot tightened in his stomach. He knew he had to face the consequences of his actions, but he also hoped for a chance to make things right. Spotting Olivia's car near the Queen Mary London Cemetery, he felt a pang of curiosity. What was she doing here?

Parking his car nearby, Zack approached cautiously, his heart pounding with apprehension. As he drew closer, he saw Olivia kneeling in front of a grave, her shoulders shaking with silent sobs. His initial reaction was jealousy, but as he listened to her heartbreaking confession, jealousy gave way to a profound sense of remorse.

"Olivia, who is Oliver?" Zack demanded, his voice tinged with frustration and guilt.

Olivia looked up, her tear-stained face a mix of anguish and fury. "Oliver was our son, Zack," she choked out, her voice quivering with emotion. "Our son who died because you weren't there!"

Zack felt as if the ground had been ripped out from under him. The revelation hit him like a freight train, leaving him reeling with the weight of his own negligence.

"I... I didn't know," Zack stammered, his voice barely above a whisper. "I didn't know about Oliver."

Olivia's eyes flashed with a mixture of pain and anger. "That's the problem, Zack. You never knew because you were never there!"

Unable to bear the weight of Olivia's grief any longer, Zack crumpled to his knees beside her. "I'm so sorry, Olivia," he whispered, his voice choked with tears. "I'm sorry I wasn't there for you... for Oliver."

Olivia remained silent, her grief too raw for words. Zack reached out to comfort her, but she pulled away, leaving him alone in the cemetery with his guilt.

As he knelt beside Oliver's grave, Zack found himself unable to stop the flood of tears that poured from his eyes. "I'm sorry, son," he whispered, his voice breaking with emotion. "I'm so sorry."

Eventually, Zack gathered himself and made his way back home, his heart heavy with regret and determination. He knew he couldn't change the past, but he was determined to make amends for the future, for Olivia, for Zivia, and for the son he had lost without even knowing.
