Chapter 150,Love You Enough to Leave You

Amelia gave Tiffany a nudge, signaling her to stop talking nonsense. Gary noticed her subtle act. “Is it okay if I call you by Amelia?” he asked smilingly. Out of courtesy, Amelia nodded in agreement. Having noticed Gary’s change of attitude, Tiffany grew wary of him. She pretended to ask casually, “Gary, it seems like you’re interested in Amelia?” To her surprise, Gary openly admitted it. “Well, Amelia is my type. Her beauty and near-perfect figure can drive any man crazy. Too bad she already has a boyfriend, or I would definitely chase her. Oh, poor me! I’m left with a broken heart before I even get a taste of love!” The way he spoke with disarming frankness made both Tiffany and Amelia let their guard down.

Amelia handed Gary a glass of water as a gesture of goodwill. She then apologized, “Gary, I’m sorry for being harsh just now. Here, have some water.” Exaggeratedly, Gary exclaimed, “What an honor to have a beautiful lady pouring me a glass of water! I will drink it without any hesitation, even if it’s poison.” The man’s exaggeration made both the ladies titter. Tiffany pretended to be mad while she said, “Gary, you’re unfair! I was the one who livened up the atmosphere with you, but you never took your eyes off Amelia all the while. Am I not beautiful?”

Hearing that, Gary quickly explained, “You’re beautiful as well, but the two of you are different. You’re the girl-next-door type, while Amelia is like the popular girl in school. She’s like an opium poppy—attractive and deadly. She might not have the most beautiful facial features, but every man is naturally attracted to her. That’s why she can put all women standing next to her in the shade.” At that point, with a sheepish smile, Gary rubbed the back of his head. “I’m a crude man, and I’m not good at giving flowery and fancy compliments, but you get what I mean.”

Tiffany took a bite of her pasta. As if enlightened by Gary’s words, she said cheekily, “Ah, no wonder! So, Amelia is the reason a beautiful lady like me can’t find a husband. However, she’s the best friend ever. I’ve no choice but to live without a husband then. Oh, Amelia, I’ve sacrificed so much for you!” Amelia glanced at Tiffany while shaking her head in amusement. “Tiff.” The latter gave a shrug of her shoulder and said smilingly, “I’m just joking. But I mean it when I say you’re the best friend ever.” Gary could tell that the two were as thick as thieves.

With a smile, he commented, “The two of you are really close together, unlike those women I’ve met before. On the surface, they seem to be close to each other. Yet, a little misunderstanding could turn them into enemies.” Hearing that, Tiffany held her head high in pride. “Well, Amelia and I are more than friends! We are more like a family, or rather, closer than a family. Back then, we could only count on ourselves, building our careers from scratch. We’ve been through a lot together, and we won’t let anything come between us. I suppose those women you mentioned earlier never truly regarded each other as friends, which explains why their friendship would turn sour over a little misunderstanding.”

Gary couldn’t agree more. “I suppose you’re right. I’ve indeed learned something from you today.” Almost an hour had passed when they finished their supper. Within that one hour, the three had become good friends. They had had a wonderful time since all of them were outgoing and talkative. When they bade each other goodbye, Tiffany suggested, “Gary, why don’t I introduce you to a friend of mine? She’s a beautiful lady though not as pretty and sexy as Amelia. I can arrange a blind date for you. What do you think?” Gary agreed enthusiastically. “Sure, let’s arrange a day when my schedule is less hectic.

Well, I’m rather careless and insensitive. Sometimes, I might not have realized it if I accidentally offend a lady or if she’s mad at me. You’d better tell your friend about this when you introduce me to her.” Playfully, Tiffany retorted, “Gary, don’t you belittle yourself! You’re a sincere and straightforward man, and you have a considerate side. Not only are you good-looking, rather, you also own properties and cars. It’s normal for my friend to have her eyes on a man like you. I’m just afraid you will not be interested in her.” “You’re flattering me! Normally, beautiful ladies like you guys won’t be interested in a crude man like me.”

“Oh, Gary, stop being humble! I hope you won’t make excuses and chicken out after I have the blind date arranged for you,” Tiffany teased. Amused, Gary gave a hearty smile. He then took a glance at his watch and realized it was already two in the morning. “Ladies, it’s getting late now. Let me drive you guys home,” he offered. Tiffany rejected his offer politely. “That’s very kind of you, but we drove here. We can go home on our own.” “Well then. Drive safe! Call me if there’s anything; I’ll be at your beck and call,” said Gary with almost overwhelming friendliness.
