"I..." Melody did not know how to respond to Sherman. Was she happy with Lucas' side?
There had been moments of happiness where just being in the same space as him seemed enough for her. However, ever since Thalia appeared, everything became complicated. Lucas' attention was no longer solely on her; there was another woman in his world, someone he spent more time with and understood better.
Since then, being with Lucas has brought more frustration than happiness. However, she was willing to endure it just for those fleeting moments of happiness.
Until Melody could not bear it anymore and moved out of the house, she wanted to be clearer-headed and also wanted to know what kind of feelings Lucas truly had for her. Did he even love her?
"True happiness doesn't require hesitation or contemplation. You don't need to tell me the answer. I can see it in your expression, Melody. I don't demand an answer from you. Just remember what I've said to you today. Always prioritize your own happiness, no matter who you're facing, even if it's me."
Sherman seemed to genuinely not want anything from her or to hear her answer. After saying that, he gently tousled Melody's hair.
"Alright, today has been exhausting enough for you. I've said more than enough. I'm glad you patiently listened to me. Now... go rest."
Melody blinked slowly. It was not until Sherman let her in and was about to close the door behind her that she suddenly called out to him.
"Sherman!"

The readers' comments on the novel: The Day I Kissed An Older Man
This book is a good book, but it’s too short. I hope it has a part two👍🏾...
This book is getting boring now. I loved Jeremy, Corinne, Sonny and Lucas. The story needs to end. or bring back more of Jeremy, etc....
I haven't skipped any chapter at all. Though the story is good, it keeps going back to base one. I think this has no ending at all and somehow after reading more than 2500 chapters it's kinda tiring already. They have drained all the thrills....
Great writing! I almost cried when Helen hit Melody! So sad! 😭 can’t wait to see how the relationship with her and Lucas develops though. So tired of the repetitive problems with different people....
Yikes my body tenses so much, my moods change as the scenes change. It leaves me wanting to continue reading....
my heart breaks for melody, so many ups and downs, i shed a few tears when lucas walked by melody carrying thalia, and melody stayed quiet while watching them leave. i find myself getting into character as if im one. i dont remember ever feeling like that in any other books. im thankful the 10 chapters/day. waiting for the next 10...
We have updated progress from 7 chapters/day to 10 chapters/day.<3...
i love grandma Beatrice, there needs to me more people like her in the world straight forward and to the point, no beating around the bush and worrying about offending anyone, why pretend to be someone your not....
looking forward to more chapters, The same thing is happening to Melody as what happened to Luna, if Luna was back maybe she would set Lucas straight, can't wait to see how Lucas handles the situations that will arrive. Poor Melody....
ya Lucas pay more attention to Melody lets see what happens waiting for more chapters thanks...
