7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLxn0C1C2Qc

The train came to a smooth halt.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKBIlYrj5jo

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

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ndF53aBfl

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

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ99HMB0xxpi

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

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ97a20PAKq

She looked at him and laughed softly.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbPb4ynEAbk

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

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7JhngW7ug2

He didn't answer.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhJchmEmTMd

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

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsNQap83fOW

Valindra stood there for a second before shaking her head.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnpNbLNP5qb

"What a strange man..."

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsAeOO1GGPc

The train's departure alarm echoed through the station.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUlTzrE0vKg

Methon kept walking without looking back.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYQICnP4Pwx

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

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK5b5R94srb

"Hey!" she shouted.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPdnV3NyW0b

"The train is leaving!"

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8fUbEfDfZX

He didn't stop.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBcrCk6oVqS

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

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ0k4aXB3TO

Still no response.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzx5tnuEoFb

The doors began to close.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK2tysobaUD

Valindra looked at the moving train...

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgX8PXGMe9w

Then at the lonely man walking away.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfB8DCnUe4H

"Oh, come on!"

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcH5j0QekWb

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

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIzJXRGSGuM

The train disappeared from the platform.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1pW6GZFo3a

Only then did she realize what she had done.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡftKLKoHkol

She had missed her train.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLqHYdrMy40

Again.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeeti3zOH19

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

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSG1ZLHIHz4

"What do you think you're doing?"

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt2qU4V2B7q

Methon looked at her without any expression.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0e6qlfXeZR

"You made me miss my train!"

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS3m1z7XWxH

"I told you to get back on it."

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6DQXCsalZu

"You didn't listen!"

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4H2fTrChNB

"And because of you..."

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTSK7QQUlsJ

She pointed at the empty railway track.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSzdxmfYs0s

"I missed it too."

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBwpe8wSUZE

Methon sighed.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWedqNPxwfT

"That wasn't my fault."

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2PyR18aUJD

"It absolutely was."

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1u467N8oTM

He shook his head.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2DQhtWvvLy

"I never asked you to follow me."

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9bo6NPrVXp

"Exactly!"

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVN2ihIMQPF

She folded her arms.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡexfrkDGp3g

"You never ask for anything."

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRrgsxc5Q51

"You don't talk."

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc2NhPKU8uN

"You don't smile."

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ11fDvt7OSH

"You don't even get angry properly."

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvKz9VlJYt0

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

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHUEczaeLsV

For the first time...

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDMkRFhWGo2

A tiny smile almost appeared on Methon's face.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8AzEFls8D6

Almost.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMqSNEbx3fG

He quickly hid it.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4jUanO0Lr4

Valindra noticed anyway.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEoviHbXbYB

"Aha!"

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7y5ZGib90A

"I saw that."

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMTS5Qb1deC

"You almost smiled."

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRDVNYbU8wZ

"I did not."

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEqgDJuQIfQ

"You did."

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1rPL8Tl8m8

"I didn't."

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ3OEDbxAYm

"You definitely did."

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwfkq8W32AN

Methon turned around and started walking again.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmSa8clXJZW

Valindra happily followed him.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhJPvtxZmJa

A few minutes later, they reached the station exit.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDhd32NU9fU

Night had already covered the city.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkuFzRQ2O9X

Valindra stopped walking.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG2CnaRTlsq

She looked around.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxWWWeaBAxV

The station was becoming emptier every minute.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ9Z26xnsji

Only a few people remained.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkkyWH6QpA2

She suddenly remembered something.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMDChvMVNpC

"My train..."

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ZlV6udPPa

She sighed dramatically.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJdbd2ZenEq

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

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKIES5XAuvL

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

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO1d68ZCsJH

After getting the information, she stepped back outside.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQolrtA2ey

The streets were much quieter now.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVncPkFsCVD

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

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0n4UAdiGbs

Their whispers slowly turned into laughter.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYooZO3pVTP

Valindra ignored them and continued walking.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡelcisLROPf

One of them stepped forward.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTiV78Vh3Om

"Need some company?"

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGUaAhs3081

She stopped immediately.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHJ2rSCDDxh

"No."

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtCWyiwowdd

Another one laughed.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCaGXClb2Ta

"Don't be rude."

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7CcZX4EvLc

Valindra looked straight into his eyes.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFKfBLuKZUf

"If you take one more step..."

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs5OYHiruvR

She said calmly,

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI9OGL2xINm

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

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPkJccMx45w

The boys laughed.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6U57nmMhTF

She didn't.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9mahVov5Ms

Without waiting another second, she turned and walked away.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6HeweKPbRk

The footsteps behind her grew louder.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD71RBytmJp

They were following her.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzqu3mYMPHw

For the first time that night...

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHT0oSBEXnP

She felt uneasy.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtdHUzpoi8s

She looked around desperately.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9eslzGsb24

Then she saw a familiar figure walking ahead.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr3qbDa1wer

"Methon!"

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhle2f5xk2H

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

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbrcxcHWale

He stopped in surprise.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh2E2khdqV2

She stood beside him, trying to catch her breath.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLgq0fQ8KEq

"Thank God..."

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSJrNgeDNkl

"I finally found you."

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrWuSHdEv6h

Methon looked at her in confusion.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFWuBW2ZncN

"What happened?"

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6pWf9ez3AL

She glanced behind her.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB6ecofu3fO

The boys had stopped following.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyj7YW822ef

Only then did she let out a deep breath.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4EOXoDR1kg

"I'll explain later."

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9SxM8rvKx0

"But for now..."

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Cc0B1MsFl

She smiled weakly.

7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB18DRi0yps

"I'm really glad you're still here."7Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt67qV3bkJT
