“How is it possible for Isaac to forget about Camila in just a few days? They had a child together. He can't just simply forget about Camila after being sad for a few days. It would be too heartless of him to do so."

“I'm using a figure of speech," Willie pointed out. Willie felt an urge to roll his eyes in frustration.

Why did Aldrin have such a poor grasp of the situation?

Aldrin gave Willie a look as if he thought he were an idiot. "Do you really think Rowena can handle the pain? If you don't want Rowena to be sad in front of Isaac, then perhaps it's better to keep her away from him altogether. The pain of losing a loved one lasts a lifetime and it's not something that can be easily brushed aside."

Aldrin paused before continuing, "It's not realistic to expect Rowena to never see Isaac again as she is currently responsible for taking care of Joe. It's important for her to face the pain and allow herself to fully grieve. It's not healthy to suppress emotions and pretend everything is okay."
