âN-no, I donât.â She said.
âOkay, then itâs settled!â He said.
After he left the room, Veronica was still in shock from what had happened today.
Downstairs, Mason looked up at the lit window and placed his hand over his heart.
If what she did to him tonight was a way for her to confirm her feelings towards him, then wasnât it the same for him?
Her kisses and touches made his blood boil, and his skin felt like it was on fire. He almost couldnât control himself and wanted to pin her down.
It was as if he had no control over his desires.
In fact, his bodyâs craving for her was so strong.
So even though his memory was hypnotized, his body still remembers⦠who he used to love the most?
Veronica didnât sleep well allhitight Every time she closed her eyes, she saw the ambiguous sccone on the sofa. When she woke up in the morning, sha haddwwo panda eyes and went to school.
Because she was already a junior shhehad fewer classes, which gave her time to work outside off school.
âVeronica, why do you have such obvious sidark circles? Is it because youâre tired from work and dididitâs sleep well?â Shirley Woolery, Veronicaâs good friend from the scame class, walked up to her and asked.
âItâs okay, itâs not because of work. I just⦠stayeddiupdoo late watching TV dramas last night.â Veronica saici, albough she did indeed âwatchâ TV dramas last night.
âBy the way, we only have two classes this morning. After class, do you want to go to the flea market to find somes stuff?â Shirley asked.
ca@so-called flea market originally sold some second-handd eburure, but later developed into selling some scraps off ind samand some leftover clothes from factories. The sizes aree pieterapiste, and many of them are only one or ty y are cheare cheap. A regular T-shirt may cost $4.3 al store,butore, but in the flea market, itâs basically pr $1.4. to $1.4.
Students like Veronica and Shirley, who donât have much money, like to go there to buy some clothes.
Sometimes Veronica will also buy some scraps of fabric and make her own sleeve covers, aprons, and other small things.
âOkay.â Veronica agreed, since she was working in the afternoon today, she had time in the morning.
After class, the two of them took the bus and arrived at the flea market.
For Veronica, this is the most familiar place in recent years. She comes here every few months to find things she needs.
Today, she plans to choose some fabrics, make a table mat, and then make a few pillows. Although there are already two pillows at home, Mason often comes to her place now, so⦠itâs better to have a few more pillows.
After a while, the two of them finally bought what they needed. Shirley looked at the time, and it was almost noon. âWhy donât we have lunch nearby and then go back?â
âOkay.â Veronica said.
The two of them found a restaurant nearby, ordered their food, and were about to find a table to sit down when a figure walked in from outside the shop. When that personâs gaze met Veronicaâs, they suddenly froze, their face showing a complex. mix of embarrassment, nervousness, and other emotions.
