| had to leave this place and get away from Felix.
| needed to think carefully and make the right decision.
The 18-year-old Luna Lawson could be capricious, but the 22-year-old Luna Lawson was already an adult. | had to be responsible for every choice | made.
Wiping away my tears, | turned and strode away. Unexpectedly, | found myself in a firm yet warm embrace.
The man was holdingtightly. His proud head was nestled in the crook of my neck. His warm breath and clean scent of pine calmed my irritation and frustration bit by bit.
Lifting my blurry, tearful eyes to look at him, | saw that his deep eyes were brimming with indulgence. Behind that lay his worry and sorrow.
“Lulu, you look the prettiest when you smile. Don’t cry,” he murmured in a deep voice, each word striking my heart. “Whatever your decision is, I'll respect it. So, just follow your heart.” Look at this. This was how Colin spoiled me.
He just wantedto be happy and never troubled me.
Gradually, my heart leaned toward him.
“Why are you eavesdropping again?” | nestled in his embrace, breathing in his scent deeply. | felt utterly at peace. The anger provoked by Felix slowly dissipated.
Colin wantedto follow my heart, but | wondered whose heart mine rested with. How should | choose? I was unable to find an answer.
Smight questionfor not knowing who has been good to me. Was it so hard to make a decision? Was | simply greedy, wanting both? Or maybe | had never forgotten Felix and had been waiting for him to have a change of heart! | really didn’t know.
| wasn’t being absurd, really. | wasn’t as bad as smight think.
| just didn’t want to make a decision that I'd regret and would hurt others. | needed to think calmly and rationally.
“If I hadn’t eavesdropped, how would | have known that my beloved, whom I've loved for more than 20 years, lovesback? My love, believe me, I'll never let you go in this life.” “Stop saying such touching things. It’s hard enough to hold back my tears. If you keep talking, I'll cry again.” “Alright, if you wantto stop, then | will. But thinking about it, did | really do all those things? It must've been tiring forback then. Don’t you think | was silly? | never felt tired at all.” “Yeah, what should we do about that?” “You have to compensate me.” “How should | do that?” He releasedslightly and looked atwith his deep gaze. It was like the ocean, drowning 1. me.
“Be my girlfriend.” “I'm sorry, Colin. Can | have smore tto think?” 1 His bright, star-like eyes dimmed. A slight look of sadness emerged in them. Yet, he still managed to force a smile. “Okay, | won't ever trouble you. As long as it’s you, I'm willing to wait.” My tears, nearly dried by the wind, welled up again. They quickly streamed down my cheeks, a few teardrops making their way into my mouth.
This time, the tears were not salty but had a hint of sweetness.
