âWhatâs wrong? You seem tense,â Mason spoke up.
Her body had stiffened, and he could feel the tension even though he was just holding her feet.
âEveryoneâs watching, so maybeâ¦â
âYou feel embarrassed?â he asked.
Her face turned a bit red, clearly he had hit the nail on the head.
âBut why should you feel embarrassed? Weâre going to be husband and wife, and everyone knows that. Even if we act more intimately, itâs only natural, isnât it?â he said.
He was right, butâ¦she still felt embarrassed!
Veronica blinked, once again feeling that Mason was a bit clueless in certain ways, and was definitely different from her.
He seems to rarely blush or feel shy, and he doesnât care about other peopleâs gazes.
But thatâs just him, the him that she has always liked!
Although her face is red, Veronica doesnât try to retract her feet. Instead, she tries to ignore the gazes around her and lets him continue massaging her feet.
Anyway, let the people around them look! Sheâll just pretend those people donât exist.
Thinking this way, her gaze naturally becomes more focused on his face. The light falls on his face, making his features more clear and three-dimensional.
His long eyelashes cast a shadow on his eyelids because of the way they droop.
His straight nose and sexy, pale lips. This is him, only 20 years old, but theyâre getting married!
Heâs only lived a quarter of his life and is about to embark on the most brilliant part of it. Does he think itâs too early to get married?
What will their married life be like in the future?
Soon, they will have their own child. How will their lives change then?
Sometimes, in her eyes, he looks like a child. After all, she often remembers what he was like when he was younger.
What kind of father will he be?
Also, he seems different today, more mature. Is it because of the light makeup or his hairstyle?
Her hand couldnât help but stroke his black hair.
Masonâs body suddenly stiffened, and he looked up at her, âWhatâs wrong?â
âItâs nothing, I just suddenly feel like youâve grown up,â Veronica murmured, âIf we hadnât grown up together, I wouldnât have thought of you as a little brother for so long. If we had met in high school, well⦠maybe I would have fallen in love with you at first sight.â
Maybe then they wouldnât have gone through such a big circle!
After all, his appearance really does fit her aesthetic.
âI prefer a slow burn to love at first sight,â Mason said, âYou once said that love at first sight is just being attracted to someoneâs looks, right?â
âHaha!â Veronica couldnât help but laugh, it really seemed to be the case!
âAnd I think itâs great that I can be your little brother for so many years. And in the future, Iâll be your husband, so Iâm afraid not many people will have this experience,â Mason said seriously.
