8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSAliV1B3c9

The train came to a smooth halt.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZTGVyLnUMi

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

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdvkP8VQx4s

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

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ0bQkYHdz1

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

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaMrZgpeTXW

She looked at him and laughed softly.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuXEfrvVAxn

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

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbEjJY2mM9F

He didn't answer.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Yc7FgscvJ

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

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxQLVCOA383

Valindra stood there for a second before shaking her head.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Kb35LZs0x

"What a strange man..."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeIWhPspFUc

The train's departure alarm echoed through the station.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrE8EY0FWXI

Methon kept walking without looking back.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRCmI9kCcIs

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

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ98vuQ75egZ

"Hey!" she shouted.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB5Ulmdx5AR

"The train is leaving!"

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgYzRNAl7G5

He didn't stop.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmxrLGrR75X

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

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ49diYIGzNN

Still no response.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVsPSzkdP6g

The doors began to close.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpJqqq6hDHA

Valindra looked at the moving train...

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeK3Hzt2ao1

Then at the lonely man walking away.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5EBp4qj92i

"Oh, come on!"

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG50wRdKejE

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

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8yBeUkxdSc

The train disappeared from the platform.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYETfE7TQaN

Only then did she realize what she had done.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRSCE1BWb3X

She had missed her train.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZfjw1soUdD

Again.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtt1BbEF1ll

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

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvzSBm6JpKP

"What do you think you're doing?"

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLrd1Ql7AGY

Methon looked at her without any expression.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdo3Gw0pyFF

"You made me miss my train!"

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ73VjtXBF2d

"I told you to get back on it."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs66UtLpb62

"You didn't listen!"

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ13fyJFH5W4

"And because of you..."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkn6Wpc4Abm

She pointed at the empty railway track.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfyfxkg4NSc

"I missed it too."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr3Rs8qCiy9

Methon sighed.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVx7vQLvbQ1

"That wasn't my fault."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeuJ13ves73

"It absolutely was."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3wp9pfVWdf

He shook his head.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡprqPKiaXjo

"I never asked you to follow me."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaAI7DynRmJ

"Exactly!"

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIuY4fI8uCY

She folded her arms.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQAUumiqULS

"You never ask for anything."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7l13B8MgLq

"You don't talk."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgMFJsSeEur

"You don't smile."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGpowviOWQT

"You don't even get angry properly."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAm41VqcZru

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

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWlBF513FkB

For the first time...

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgEaXIdJD8j

A tiny smile almost appeared on Methon's face.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSTBz0nFopQ

Almost.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2zhtuSPzot

He quickly hid it.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe5qb8BXfwL

Valindra noticed anyway.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqDWg8DoOHS

"Aha!"

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE4TeXU4MLb

"I saw that."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJUbCCSAfIJ

"You almost smiled."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2fdZjudPA

"I did not."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzMoWgHH4nR

"You did."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5v8y1MBPCl

"I didn't."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOu0n4S0uH1

"You definitely did."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo5zH6r8t2t

Methon turned around and started walking again.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH4LjRPX8tT

Valindra happily followed him.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgONWkZMncj

A few minutes later, they reached the station exit.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkwJCCaTv0u

Night had already covered the city.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPbXONv7yEZ

Valindra stopped walking.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvVhDco0uc

She looked around.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ19MQfg4NIH

The station was becoming emptier every minute.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2yMc1mbkst

Only a few people remained.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTB6rE3dESb

She suddenly remembered something.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDJ51E8tDSK

"My train..."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdDFBwvNfv8

She sighed dramatically.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY62kCmYnQ3

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

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH4f1WcbN5b

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

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUiC89LunoY

After getting the information, she stepped back outside.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvoS6BKAdvQ

The streets were much quieter now.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpB9s4mS52J

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

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNwMHs5U2Md

Their whispers slowly turned into laughter.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlRj3W52wGy

Valindra ignored them and continued walking.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOoIOdPNoBU

One of them stepped forward.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ30EQcajJll

"Need some company?"

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ031gcRK7lL

She stopped immediately.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaueCIpMbua

"No."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFwI2qYNrAt

Another one laughed.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe7D4CT3OW5

"Don't be rude."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxcg27bZglA

Valindra looked straight into his eyes.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz4xUkn9Puf

"If you take one more step..."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡshotWlWO45

She said calmly,

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡICQV6dtYUP

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

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTexjfKk135

The boys laughed.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWuEISd4B77

She didn't.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYdBusifxqZ

Without waiting another second, she turned and walked away.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQM2zdTy57X

The footsteps behind her grew louder.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ45Is9vNo0k

They were following her.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ25o0cqnyDF

For the first time that night...

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKAKhlabLIU

She felt uneasy.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4e04B3TutN

She looked around desperately.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmcYyUa0nA3

Then she saw a familiar figure walking ahead.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMf5KMgBIqa

"Methon!"

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVWESZSVp2a

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

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqytNHsdkGs

He stopped in surprise.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZQqFeBM8aj

She stood beside him, trying to catch her breath.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmep3upvkph

"Thank God..."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4RgrnJGqa0

"I finally found you."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUtPQQH9O1y

Methon looked at her in confusion.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡumjPUH828q

"What happened?"

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQE0rbLkvoz

She glanced behind her.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFziq7hmGY3

The boys had stopped following.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Cnl7HMixc

Only then did she let out a deep breath.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDMocOLIaa5

"I'll explain later."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIiQivHeGNU

"But for now..."

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb9MLO0K13W

She smiled weakly.

8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSxE9P4NfgF

"I'm really glad you're still here."8Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkH9idXfIfY
