“Yes! “Vanessa laughed and jokingly said, "You don't have a girlfriend and I don't have a boyfriend. We are just fine together. Besides, we are even old friends.”
When John stopped dead in his tracks and took Vanessa by the hand, Vanessa was shocked. "But I saw in your eyes that you still like William."
"I..." Vanessa forced a smile and didn't know what to say, but John threw his arms wide open and pushed her into his wide chest. "I like you, so I can pretend that I can't see something," he said.
"I can give you time to forget him, but you have to remember, you are now my girlfriend, you can temporarily do not like me, but cannot have anything to do with him, otherwise I will be jealous, ok?
He looked like a kid who didn't get candy and seemed to be a little upset. Vanessa couldn't help but smiling. She stretched out her hand and held him tightly. She slightly wanted to cry though she didn’t know the reason..
With such an excellent man still in love with her, why can she do remember William?
Vanessa and John said goodbye. When she got home, she got a call from Angie, complaining about her leaving. She said excitedly, "Vanessa, I’m with William again, do you know that?
Vanessa said, "I know. I see."
"You don't know. I thought he'd refuse, just because he was so cold to me the other day!" Angie snickered. "This guy loves me so much, but he still waits me to say like this!"
Angie asked again, "Did you go with John? How was your conversation?"
"Not bad." Vanessa said, pretending to be relaxed. "I'm with him now. Wish us well."
"Oh dear! Dear! You are so quick!" Angie shouted, happily: "I don't care, you must ask me and William to have dinner someday. Well, end here and I have to go back with William."
"Well, be careful on the way."
