8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdhJkDBQMQz

The train came to a smooth halt.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLf09O4ViPh

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

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiFedAQRoKx

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

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIo5SGdoYxo

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

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnIz2RXD8oR

She looked at him and laughed softly.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVcuJSidqSo

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

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIu3G6NYxUt

He didn't answer.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKUtmJ7S7Ht

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

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvZP2wCEoLV

Valindra stood there for a second before shaking her head.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFsMOac3MHJ

"What a strange man..."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnFUYXLpFxp

The train's departure alarm echoed through the station.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd8j42feZTN

Methon kept walking without looking back.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU69d2e05Ql

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

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcwFdVxwP3w

"Hey!" she shouted.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSl7HQdfi4t

"The train is leaving!"

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3HjuGZ9rrg

He didn't stop.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJGBqhe0qj7

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

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKQh832vs7P

Still no response.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIk55iWXSpq

The doors began to close.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHPTuPbYf8M

Valindra looked at the moving train...

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkTJTtncM7P

Then at the lonely man walking away.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUeWR4SoGnM

"Oh, come on!"

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUdcgCJEAbY

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

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFgkphXf843

The train disappeared from the platform.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKM83uWrYKe

Only then did she realize what she had done.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7i6bnHlIeu

She had missed her train.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvgmjxVx7IK

Again.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5aaLHHLg7M

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

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtLMgaPlQbR

"What do you think you're doing?"

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL28Fa3vObO

Methon looked at her without any expression.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6khG9U8MRO

"You made me miss my train!"

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTwWJpUi9tU

"I told you to get back on it."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBYuiDTtBuL

"You didn't listen!"

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD6bok3j0Qb

"And because of you..."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9kd8FZdKLO

She pointed at the empty railway track.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqRjnJULW3c

"I missed it too."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNSWjWUZB8G

Methon sighed.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo3wFrMP66E

"That wasn't my fault."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdhrS6Wn8Y3

"It absolutely was."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLy7fHL0WPB

He shook his head.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbJj0bfGG6M

"I never asked you to follow me."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZyr42adML

"Exactly!"

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFmNFmQorF4

She folded her arms.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuDNrjqLxPR

"You never ask for anything."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz1RxlcmFPD

"You don't talk."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeigkU5yLEV

"You don't smile."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVnKs2ouViZ

"You don't even get angry properly."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0guO6P3dyB

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

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkxVh1jSOVG

For the first time...

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIIRaBrT5dC

A tiny smile almost appeared on Methon's face.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡygUXRRvY0B

Almost.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4aNdFUlOM9

He quickly hid it.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLs1YOga1ML

Valindra noticed anyway.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnENQskM3pn

"Aha!"

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLyhRD9WMDy

"I saw that."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvcUYFDQCRx

"You almost smiled."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrY9REz88Dc

"I did not."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiFf5sF6d8l

"You did."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEWcF3xLE6D

"I didn't."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0drbnT8dpp

"You definitely did."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi3SiqKJtEe

Methon turned around and started walking again.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt9aOK5LEv9

Valindra happily followed him.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZPpSHpksfV

A few minutes later, they reached the station exit.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5p7ZdMNzub

Night had already covered the city.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcUMIDBFW12

Valindra stopped walking.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaWyrXfiSLR

She looked around.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXsQ7NK7daN

The station was becoming emptier every minute.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4kUBVGRdo0

Only a few people remained.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRMglhdKey4

She suddenly remembered something.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnc3bTtjgMc

"My train..."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ1Ko8MSGNN

She sighed dramatically.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuN2wPfOQXI

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

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Cu9UqeP2r

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

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ73Y9XXDqEB

After getting the information, she stepped back outside.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX5C2FwcTgB

The streets were much quieter now.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQnXdPs11bT

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

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGmQWflaT4h

Their whispers slowly turned into laughter.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNRuHLp6uHH

Valindra ignored them and continued walking.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLg1etfUANQ

One of them stepped forward.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmN6ChhR2zf

"Need some company?"

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaZ9qjukICx

She stopped immediately.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjTmycWfC2S

"No."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHichMwS9nF

Another one laughed.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz4yLq9mcHZ

"Don't be rude."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZCe3KqtjrW

Valindra looked straight into his eyes.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwwW5NpW8GY

"If you take one more step..."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdtHdINsxIf

She said calmly,

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGB4nEr3KiW

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

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6grH7upR7d

The boys laughed.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCHWKxRFSzW

She didn't.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdJTi4NTqUz

Without waiting another second, she turned and walked away.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1O8Y8p9Pbn

The footsteps behind her grew louder.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgX7rS8Pxwf

They were following her.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtrVy62dfXE

For the first time that night...

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpYxsSdLxsM

She felt uneasy.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFoc4ilP0Mw

She looked around desperately.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb9ZFqebzhi

Then she saw a familiar figure walking ahead.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9FpJKazlI4

"Methon!"

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7HiHcdJVrZ

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

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdy2VMYwjEi

He stopped in surprise.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb2HB2ntEr2

She stood beside him, trying to catch her breath.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNqzlCcMZPz

"Thank God..."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDmJigCacol

"I finally found you."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1432GglYH6

Methon looked at her in confusion.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVpesHr0t9P

"What happened?"

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJVOJvPQGbS

She glanced behind her.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8zCcrWDXAX

The boys had stopped following.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjHs2K8tJyZ

Only then did she let out a deep breath.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz9YyaEr7pv

"I'll explain later."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ8fDFgh3Kn

"But for now..."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPsp7Xk5knN

She smiled weakly.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYMmKmmtnWr

"I'm really glad you're still here."8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqIxbPjakl1
