8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9rehjb6dLD

The train came to a smooth halt.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpAs9OlsHR2

"This is my stop," Valindra said cheerfully as she adjusted her backpack.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4shyZxtHXu

She stepped out of the train without waiting for another word from Methon.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdiYJiUXV5U

A few seconds later, to her surprise, Methon also stepped onto the platform.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZfaovaElLZ

She looked at him and laughed softly.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡknL9huK8wl

"Don't tell me this is your station too."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhHZGQ5gUuH

He didn't answer.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzErGqkzTGL

Instead, he simply walked past her with his hands in his pockets.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHcns6OIDlF

Valindra stood there for a second before shaking her head.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuOtf3XzTzP

"What a strange man..."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9EZig1IXew

The train's departure alarm echoed through the station.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡycBtZwWz8l

Methon kept walking without looking back.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv0bbbSyZaf

Valindra suddenly noticed that he wasn't even trying to board another train.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjaOE6xn0lB

"Hey!" she shouted.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh8JtP1pYTl

"The train is leaving!"

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6eQlktDXQP

He didn't stop.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ825SwzceEQ

"If you don't get in now, you'll miss it!"

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKb4KxYF4Ie

Still no response.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3lBHKxqDWr

The doors began to close.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWWPWg3Xwyu

Valindra looked at the moving train...

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzDezg2RIQU

Then at the lonely man walking away.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtGyNil650Y

"Oh, come on!"

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuAazQlcmlv

Without thinking twice, she jumped away from the train and ran after him.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvVdzGCVAM8

The train disappeared from the platform.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHj9xXKnwgZ

Only then did she realize what she had done.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtgTC89kGFM

She had missed her train.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7MsVceLLQp

Again.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsTAeTuDg3j

She finally caught up with Methon and stood in front of him, slightly out of breath.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ70Fzn7nCGL

"What do you think you're doing?"

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsZtdNttbgn

Methon looked at her without any expression.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡySAg2CvZN7

"You made me miss my train!"

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR3onTcXSIU

"I told you to get back on it."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUE94RQzqgo

"You didn't listen!"

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlIVuFZPASs

"And because of you..."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqjQJBHjADY

She pointed at the empty railway track.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJdbQdwGu5E

"I missed it too."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡil5pq8WzIl

Methon sighed.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYVGJAa4mFV

"That wasn't my fault."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC9Jryitr5u

"It absolutely was."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzzc4zWwOhM

He shook his head.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNLWa6jVbEr

"I never asked you to follow me."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu6LhaVuMS2

"Exactly!"

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF0F0CbPqvC

She folded her arms.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs3o5TiuKME

"You never ask for anything."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ZmBE0HqRV

"You don't talk."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDyp2bTVCkX

"You don't smile."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj7xNhgRXoq

"You don't even get angry properly."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1j2JqrN4Un

"For a man who looks so handsome, you're unbelievably difficult."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5M3Z4hSvNQ

For the first time...

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV4j4fXFWDu

A tiny smile almost appeared on Methon's face.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRhrSGZkNci

Almost.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4rB55LEpbe

He quickly hid it.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl9mSSm1G0E

Valindra noticed anyway.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHx7covKFqr

"Aha!"

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsLP9t0YD1F

"I saw that."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYoMcnLjgbH

"You almost smiled."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyNWJYKOVqu

"I did not."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK5gg23XXDj

"You did."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9MwCXwjEM9

"I didn't."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq6YJwLAkn1

"You definitely did."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk03JjugpMy

Methon turned around and started walking again.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTF93wTqghI

Valindra happily followed him.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkPlZJiWdvu

A few minutes later, they reached the station exit.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4aXFY2UfhB

Night had already covered the city.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnc4Tkk0Gfz

Valindra stopped walking.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLja3WXL9R8

She looked around.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfsPI7kbzWR

The station was becoming emptier every minute.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnK8QSYG08C

Only a few people remained.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFiCjfD0lxh

She suddenly remembered something.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSgmia0oFwn

"My train..."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYmE0vfjUs8

She sighed dramatically.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRDPLgVS5nt

"This is the second train I've missed today."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbO8BqW3i6n

She walked toward the station help desk to ask about the next available train to her hometown.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7XoC2oH0Oq

After getting the information, she stepped back outside.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHWqt4SBM3H

The streets were much quieter now.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUxsClp2Ml5

A group of young men standing nearby began staring at her.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBga4LVDgFC

Their whispers slowly turned into laughter.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkBQMMJbcVP

Valindra ignored them and continued walking.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVHCKbH5Tqh

One of them stepped forward.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7gDMtUObRV

"Need some company?"

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkiwbOaRinc

She stopped immediately.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsR8CKwaTO0

"No."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAAoa4o00vg

Another one laughed.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbuqupB1Bva

"Don't be rude."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwtrkmnyLHo

Valindra looked straight into his eyes.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdoYrzRKLqe

"If you take one more step..."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkmadPj8Ale

She said calmly,

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGtuuiKZydF

"...you'll spend the rest of your night explaining to the police why your nose is broken."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr1z3AEbdcO

The boys laughed.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoJ3hJlvDYu

She didn't.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvoUnVZcys2

Without waiting another second, she turned and walked away.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeZ90osjThw

The footsteps behind her grew louder.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTJZliNwZRo

They were following her.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9xBDjL15W8

For the first time that night...

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPRQjRgHndj

She felt uneasy.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeCXyXHfdvE

She looked around desperately.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9BdCFuqSIB

Then she saw a familiar figure walking ahead.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDozGAUZJC

"Methon!"

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiICiGs1AlI

Without thinking, she ran toward him and grabbed his arm tightly.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyPuLsg14yB

He stopped in surprise.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2TKfqJSqe1

She stood beside him, trying to catch her breath.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWvmMr6oloa

"Thank God..."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJEflfEUQAq

"I finally found you."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEcIaFFnJsQ

Methon looked at her in confusion.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5c7XgSlyju

"What happened?"

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp46DwqyU9n

She glanced behind her.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKZtYvxmclE

The boys had stopped following.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUaxQLtM1jC

Only then did she let out a deep breath.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTfVjncT4FM

"I'll explain later."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1LifgoFgVM

"But for now..."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6LsQy1MBoN

She smiled weakly.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAgDIv5dffl

"I'm really glad you're still here."8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjaExk1CXGC
