Ezekiel shook his head. “I’ll be staying here for a while longer.”
Harmony didn’t ask for much. She would just take every day as it came. After all, she had planned her life out-she would do her best in her career and spend time with the people she loved. She wouldn’t force a marriage if it wasn’t meant to be. “Sure. Tell me if you have to leave. I won’t get worried that way,” Harmony said seriously.
“I won’t leave. I can’t leave.” Ezekiel looked at her, his eyes filled with a hidden message, which Harmony knew.
She smiled as well. She didn’t want him to leave either. That afternoon, Ezekiel took
Harmony home. After Harmony got out of the car and saw Ezekiel off, she bought some pills from the nearby pharmacy. She didn’t want to get pregnant for the time being, nor did she want to cause any trouble for Ezekiel. While they were enjoying their alone time, she had to keep herself healthy too.
As Harmony came back to her neighborhood, someone called out to her. “Harmony? It’s really you.”
Surprised, Harmony looked at the girl coming out of the car. She couldn’t recognize her.
“Samantha?”
“It’s me. Long time no see.” Samantha gave her a big smile. She pulled her shirt up a little. “You live here? I just moved here too.”
“You moved here?” Harmony was surprised. That’s a coincidence.
“Yeah, I rented a place here yesterday. Which floor are you on?”
“Eighteenth floor of Building 8, Unit 2. What about you?”
