Having wrapped themselves together in a towel, they sat by the pool and didn’t go down into the water. The shy girl whispered into the boy’s ear, “I don’t know how to swim.”
The boy chuckled and responded, “Let me teach you!”
After that, he tossed the towel aside and went into the pool first. The pool was 1.5 meters deep. Since the boy was rather tall, the water only reached his chest.
On the other hand, the girl was still scared of going into the pool and glared at the boy. She then uttered timidly, “Why don’t you just swim by yourself for a while? Once I’m ready to get in the water, I’ll tell you!”
The boy nodded. Being in front of his precious girlfriend, the boy’s swimming ability seemed to have improved exponentially. He swam in circles around the pool effortlessly.
Gazing at this scene in front of me, I couldn’t help but smile. Ah, youthful love is such bliss. Two pure-hearted people getting together and building their relationship on trust.
Admiring and adoring each other is what the first form of love is.
“What? You snuck out here to feel sorry for yourself?” asked Rachel. With beauty like her around, the men’s gaze was all directed toward us.
I smiled and replied, “Why should I feel sorry for myself?”
She sat down beside me and crossed her slim, long legs, which were drawing a lot of attention. “Mr. Oberick took me and Ashton as a couple. Don’t you feel sad and left out?”
I raised my eyebrows and smiled. “Nope. No matter what kind of relationship I have with Ashton, it’s none of your business. Honestly, I couldn’t care less who he ends up with. So, you really don’t need to waste your time here trying to spite me.”
Having failed to enrage me, she was miffed. “Don’t act so high and mighty. Your little tactic to play hard to get, won’t get you far. Men will start to be disgusted by you. Do you think I don’t know what you’re scheming about? By pretending to push Ashton away, you are making his desire for you grow. And just like that, you have him wrapped around your little finger. I must say, your underhanded methods are brilliant!”
