"Get in the car, Linda!” Linda inexplicable felt nervous, she looked around, hesitated for a while before she got into the car.
Catherine quickly drove away. "Where do you want to go for dinner? [I'll treat you today." She sounded relaxed.
"Ms. Collins, why are you here?” "Can't | be picking up a friend after work?" Catherine looked at her and asked with a smile. "I got off work early today and have no friends in R-Alan to have dinner with, so | thought of you.” Linda looked a little embarrassed.
Catherine seemed to be in a good mood. "I know a place that serves delicious steak. Would you like to try it?” She really had nothing else? Linda was somewhat doubtful about it.
She didn't answer.

Seeing her in doubts, Catherine said, "Don't worry, | have coupons and it will not costmuch money.” Linda followed her, hesitating, "Ms. Collins, I'll pay you 200,000 back first, and | will pay the remaining 50,000 in installments.” "Why?"

We are friends, shouldn't friends be supposed to help each other?" Catherine said. "What about what you have done for me? You took care ofwhen | was at my lowest, did you forget? You cleaned my wine cabinet, boughtbreakfast, and helpeddo my laundry. Didn't you do all of those things forbecause we are friends?” Hearing these words, Linda felt much better. Maybe she overthought.
"All right now." Catherine put her arm around Linda’s shoulder. "Stop thinking about it. | am not in urgent need of money at the momeny, just pay Jennifer back first.” They sat down by the window and Catherine asked, "What do you want to eat today?" She handed Linda the menu.
"Whatever you want.” "That's not okay. We haven't gotten together like this for a long time.” Linda could tell that Catherine was in a good mood today.

"Linda, there is nothing in the world that delicious food can't solve," Catherine poured her sjuice and said with a smile.
"Sometimes all your misgivings are just obsession.” Linda pursed her lips and remembered how she saw Finnley and Mya together.
"Are you embarrassed to see them together now?" Catherine looked up at her, “Don’t you have to meet them every day?” "A little," Linda took the glass and drank the juice. "I would say hello to him as before. | don’t think he feels anything, but | would still feel a bit embarrassed.” "Just get used to it," Catherine said, "Although we all crave being with the person we love, sometimes we have to learn to let go.” Linda asked her, "Have you let it go?” Their eyes met and Catherine suddenly thought of Ivan. She lowered her eyes, "I have loved him for such a long time, how can | let it go in such a short time?” Her voice was full of helplessness. She drank up the juice and then smiled and encouraged Linda, "Linda, we will all be fine one day. You will, definitely. You are still young.” MMMWWLIIOIfIO&1 MMMWWLIIOIfIO&1 mmMwWLLIOfiflO& 1 MMMWWLIIOIfIO&1 MULL TO £2 E1061 mmMwWLIiIOfiflO&1
