NovelEnglishAfter dinner, | thought of going up to the rooftop to get sair, so | went up there on my own.
It was windy upstairs, but it madefeel more awake.
Putting my hands on the sidebar framing the rooftop, | closed my eyes and greeted the wind. It was cold, but it
cleared my mind significantly.
Suddenly, a piece of clothing was draped over me, and | looked back. Drover had also cup.
He put his hands in his pockets and stood beside me. "Marius askedto cup here and look for something
for him. | didn't expect you to be here."
Hearing this, | chuckled softly. "He has the best intentions, but he's very obvious."
Drover turned to look at me. His brows and eyes were curved, and he looked extra gentle on this night. "He is
quite obvious."
"He also toldtoday that the quickest way to forget someone is to pick a target and start over." | tilted my
head and looked at him as well.
His gaze becdeeper and deeper as we looked at each other. "Was he referring to me?"

"Yes, he was referring to you," | replied without hesitation.
Drover smiled slightly and looked into the distance. "Then, do | have the honor of being your target?"
| lowered my gaze and shook my head, my hand touching my stomach. "I'm the one who doesn't have the honor.
| have Theo's flesh and blood in my stomach. How can | have a target now?" Hand on my stomach, | could feel
the beating of the child. At this moment, | was happy.
Drover did not say anything and just looked atsilently.
"You're so gentle," Drover said suddenly.
Gentle...
| looked up at him and blinked. "Are you saying I'm usually grumpy?"
"You women really like to twist men's words," Drover turned away and said with samusement.
| also turned away and continued, "That's because men's words are never exact."
The moonlight was hazy and carried with it a hint of softness.
After lounging on the rooftop for a while, Drover abruptly said, "Let's head down. We don't want to catch a cold."
“Alright.”
It felt like we had spent a really long tup there as my hands and feet were cold. | nodded and went
downstairs with him.
Marius probably went out to have fun again.
"This guy can never sit still." Drover sighed.
"Marius enjoys having a good time. Fortunately, he owns a company. Otherwise, | would have thought that he
was a NEET. But | don't seem to know who he is or what his background is up till now," | said casually.

Drover smiled. "He has his own property back home, but he doesn't like to rely on his family. | suppose you could
say he's ambitious for coming out and going at it alone."
"Of course, he's a second-generation
rich kid, and his temperament is very
like one. He looks sloppy, but he's actually devoted. He also loves
having fun, however." | smiled
shook my head, feeling a little
and
helpless toward Marius. He was a
lovely person and someone worth
making friends with.
"What about me? What did you think ofwhen you sawfor the first time?" Drover asked suddenly.
| thought about it for a moment and
answered, "I saw you for the first tat the conference in Zenon. You were so radiant. You gave off this feeling
as if | could only watch you from a distance and not get any closer. You were out of reach at that time."
Drover was stunned for a moment. He did not seem to have expectedto make such a comment. He
narrowed his eyes and smiled at me. "I didn't expect the first impression | left on you to be like this."
"I wasn't involved in artificial intelligence at the time, so all those professional words you said confused me.
That's why | felt like that," | explained.
"What about you? Do you still remember your first impression of me?" | asked back.
