Arya said to Eli straightforwardly after Kara walked out.
"Eli, you like Kara?"
Eli's ears turned red. He didn't deny it as Arya was Kara's best friend.
"Yes!"
Arya raised her eyebrows. What a straightforward boy!
Unfortunately, Kara didn't like him.
"However, Kara doesn't want to be in love right now."
Though Arya was very sympathetic to him, she wanted to finish the mess quickly for Kara.
"I know, I won't force her." Eli had a bad premonition and hurriedly interrupted her.
"I know she's in hospital again. I'm worried. I just want to stand by her side to protect her."
Eli was serious. "I know she doesn't like me. But it doesn't matter. It takes time for her to accept me, I'll wait."
Arya sighed. He was in a rush.
"Eli, have you ever thought that you will bother her?"
Eli said nothing.
His heart ached as if a dagger stabbed into his heart. He remembered the photo that Rose had.
Was something wrong?
"Kara is so soft-tempered that she won't say harsh words to you. But you will get hurt if we don't make it clear now." Arya took a deep breath.
"She's preparing for the art exam now. She doesn't need your tutoring, so don't disturb her."
"Kara told you to say this to me?"
"Yes. But her soft voice is definitely not as tough as mine. You are rejected. Understand?"
Eli clenched his fists tightly, his face flushed.
Arya stood up and looked at his handsome face, attractive eyes, tall and straight nose bridge, pursed lips. He was immature but cold and fierce.
"Let me give a piece of advice to you. If you wait for her acceptance, be patient. Haste makes waste."
Eli was surprised and relaxed his fists.
"What do you mean?"
"Kara used to live in a relatively simple environment. She doesn't know much. You can pursue her when she grows up."
Eli was arrogant. He would insist to get close to Kara if she warned him to leave Kara alone.
Therefore, Arya did not.
When Kara returned from the bathroom, Arya made an OK gesture. She heaved a sigh of relief.
When Eli saw their small movements, he understood but controlled his emotions.
When they were about to leave, Eli intended to pay the bill, but the waiter told him someone had paid.
He knew Kara paid when she went to the bathroom.
Kara was embarrassed by Eli's gaze. "Well, you gave me a notebook. Just take this meal as thanks."
"Alright." Eli nodded, "Then we are friends now. You can tell me if you need any help."
Kara nodded.
"Yes, friends." Arya comforted her and whispered in her ear. "If he asks you out again, you can refuse him with an excuse!"
"Right." Only then did Kara relax.
Back in the classroom, Kara thought about which University she should go to and the teachers she should ask for training.
Moreover, she hadn't drawn for a long time, and she didn't know if she can draw well.
