When Miranda arrived in a hurry, she was fuming.
"I'm so frustrated! The traffic in City C is horrendous. A 20 minutes journey turned into 40 minutes!
As soon as she sat down, she began to complain.
However, the person in front of her was as still as a statue.
"Hey, Rosa... Rosa!" Miranda called her loudly.
"Uh..." Rosa quickly came to her senses and looked at her. "You're here?"
"What were you thinking about? I've been here for hours already!" Miranda said exaggeratedly.
The corner of Rosa's mouth twitched slightly as she said, "Sorry... I was... distracted just now!"
"Hey, what did you do?" Miranda grabbed her hand and saw the back of her hand red and bleeding.
Rosa looked down at her hands in surprise.
"I... I..."
"What were you thinking about? You didn't know that you were hurting your own hand?" Miranda sounded helpless. "Oh my god, alright, alright. Mr. Wright is your weakness. Ever since he came back you haven't been acting like yourself!"
Rosa looked down and sat quietly.
Miranda was even more certain of her answer.
"I'm speechless. You can't just judge a person by his appearance. Mr. Wright is indeed handsome and talented. But he doesn't even take responsibility for his actions!" Miranda pouted.
"That's not true..." Rosa murmured.
"Okay, okay, you win." After saying this, she asked the waiter to serve the dishes.
However, Rosa had already lost her appetite.
Freda's words kept replaying in her mind.
Andy did not break his promise.
That day, he attempted suicide.
It was all because of Henry.
These thoughts kept swirling in her mind.
It made her look worse and worse.
"Rosa... Are you okay?" Miranda noticed that she had not eaten anything and her face got paler by the second.
She was started to get worried.
"It's nothing. It's just... maybe I didn't sleep well last night!" Rosa immediately got rid of the thoughts in her mind.
It was rare for them to have a meal together.
It would've ruined the atmosphere if she left all of a sudden.
"Then eat some," Miranda said in a hurry, "It tastes good."
"Okay!" Rosa forced herself to eat.
Although she was chewing the food in her mouth, she had no idea what it tasted like.
An hour later...
"Ah, I'm so full!" After filling her stomach, Miranda's emotions improved a lot.
Rosa nodded along, looking absent-minded.
Seeing this, Miranda quickly sat down and grabbed her wrist. "Alright, I won't mention Mr. Wright anymore. To be honest, I thought a lot about it last night. I can't judge him just because of that one incident. Anyhow, I won't have any objections if want to try it out with him again. But if he still acts so irresponsible and acts like a jerk then I will be the first one to object it!"
Rosa looked at Miranda, and her eyes suddenly redden with tears.
"Why are you tearing up? It's not like I'm scolding you..."
"No, I'm just... very touched!" Rosa took her hand and said, "Like I said, no matter what happens to you, I will stand on your side. Even if I can't do much, I will do my best."
"Haha, look at you, so emotional. I can't stand it!" Miranda joked and rubbed her arms.
Seeing this, Rosa didn't say anything.
She was indeed not a talkative person.
After that, Miranda asked her to go shopping together.
However, Rosa was not in the mood to go shopping at all.
She had no choice but to say that she had to go back to accompany Cecil.
Miranda didn't insist and offered to send her back.
But she insisted on taking a bus, saying it was more convenient.
Miranda couldn't refuse and decided to go out with her other friends instead.
She bought a ticket and got on the bus.
After that, she sat in the last row. The scenery was constantly changing as she looked outside the window of the moving bus.
Her heart was in a mess.
"Ring ring ring" Her phone started ringing.
Rosa picked it up and saw it was from an unknown number.
Then, she answered the call.
"Rosa... it's me!" Andy said in a hoarse voice.
Rosa's body suddenly stiffened.
After a while, he said, "Where are you..."
"Come to that place..."
Rosa didn't say anything.
"Don't be afraid. I'll wait for you at the door. If you don't see me there, you don't have to go in!" Andy sounded a little uncomfortable. He was really afraid that she would refuse.
Rosa kept quiet.
She recalled what had happened last time.
Naturally, she also remembered Freda's words.
"Okay, I'll be right there!" She got off at a random station, turned around, and took a taxi.
Soon, she arrived at the place where she had found her first love. The same place where her heart had been shattered.
Andy stood under the tree, wearing a white shirt as usual. He looked exactly the same as before, clean and good looking.
Although he was not an attention grabber, he was still considered very attractive.
He had an indescribable artistic temperament.
As a result, the girls who entered the coffee shop bookstore frequently stole a few glances at him.
Rosa approached him step by step.
When Andy saw her coming over, he immediately went up to her.
"Rosa, you're finally here. I thought you weren't coming..." Andy rubbed his hands awkwardly.
Rosa didn't say anything and looked down at his wrist.
