1404words
Stroll in a happy mood. A waiter waited on me and told me where I should go. I walked back to the table that had been ordered.
However, when I almost arrived at the table I ordered, I heard Lily and Theo's conversation, which made me stop in my tracks. For some reason, I was silent and listened to their conversation quietly.
"Theo, you'd better tell Moon quickly about this situation. "I feel guilty for doing this to her," said Lily.
"It's okay, Lily. Moon must have understood that I accompanied her only to protect her. "Nothing more than that!" answered Theo.
"You don't like her, right? Maybe while I'm giving you a task like that, you'll actually fall in love with her!"
"I really don't have any feelings for her. I'm just doing the task you gave me. Moon and I are nothing more than just ordinary friends."
"Yes, I hope you explain it soon! I don't want Moon to hate me and think I'm a usurper of the person she loves."
"I understand how you feel, Lily. So don't worry!."
After hearing that conversation, for some reason, my chest felt tight, hot and painful. I assume I have never heard of any of this. I walked as if nothing had happened.
"Lilies! I'm coming," I said in greeting until they seemed to stop the conversation for a moment.
"Moon. Finally, you came. Let's sit down? What do you want to order? "Let me pay!" said Lily.
I immediately sat opposite Theo, and Lily sat beside Theo.
"I ordered a drink….no! Thank you, I have quite a lot to do today. So I won't drink here. "It would be bad if I came there but didn't drink," I said, refusing gently.
"Are you going to an event?" Lily asked.
"No, but a friend invited me for a drink. She said other friends would also come. I thought it was her birthday," I lied.
"Oh, okay, that's fine. I understand what you mean. So don't worry," said Lily, gesturing for Theo to speak first. However, Theo returned the gesture so that Lily would talk first.
"Moon?," said Lily.
"Yes, is there something you want to talk about?"
"I am very grateful to you for helping my family come back. "I want to give you this (puts the envelope on the table and pushes it closer to Moon). Please take it!" said Lily.
I immediately took and opened the envelope. I found a debit card with an extraordinary color, black.
"What is this for?" I asked.
"This is a black debit card that can help you buy anything," Lily answered, smiling.
I immediately put the black debit card on the table, "I'm sorry! But I can't accept something like this. I know what you mean that this card is very valuable. But I don't want this and don't need this thing. Thank you very much. I hope there's no need to give any gifts, I just happened to help."
"Even so, I really want to give you something as a thank you," said Lily.
"Moon, I also want to talk to you," said Theo.
"Yes, what did you want to talk to me about?," I answered.
"About our relationship. I'm sorry if I played with your feelings all this time. I approached you because of Lily's orders to look after you while you were away from Alpha Gray and Lily. "You know that this particular case involving the Wolfred family is a hazardous case, right?" said Theo.
I nodded with the meaning of knowing this.
"That's why Lily is so worried about you. She is afraid that you will get involved and endanger your life. That's why Lily sent me to look after you. "I hope you don't take it to heart," Theo explained.
I smiled confidently and answered, "Yes, of course. I didn't take it to heart. Are you worried about me? Good grief! I'm fine. I don't have any feelings for you. I really thank you for helping me."
Lily smiled, "Thank goodness! I thought you would be angry."
"Ah, that's impossible. Theo and I are just friends. Looks like I have to go. I have an appointment with someone. I can't be late, or that person will be annoyed. I go first. "No need to worry, I'm fine," I said, getting ready to leave.
"Are those flowers for me?" Theo asked, stopping me in my tracks.
"No, this is not for you. Even though it's the same, I made the flowers you ordered in my shop. But these flowers are not for you," I said, immediately leaving this place.
My step felt heavy leaving the Rosepion café, which was actually caused by my wounded heart, and I was holding back the tears so as not to fall down my cheeks.
I walked towards the city park, but my vision was relatively weak. The people passing beside me could barely be felt. Finally, we arrived at an empty park bench. Let go of fatigue and heavy burdens for a moment. Place flowers on the side.
"Hah, gosh! Why am I like this? It feels very strange. Huh, what's all this? I just overdid it," I said, then took a deep breath and prepared to leave again.
"Do you really like that guy?" said a man from behind me.
I heard someone talking to me from behind and immediately looked back. Seeing that Alpha Gray is already here.
"Hah, oh, you! No, who do you mean?," I answered.
"Theo! "Do you like him?" asked Alpha Gray, trying to be sure of this question.
"No, Theo and I are just friends. He said it. "Theo seems to like Lily and not me!" I answered with certainty.
"Really? You seem to be hiding something! Don't those flowers show proof that they were prepared for Theo?"
Suddenly, I rudely gave the bouquet of flowers to Alpha Gray. "Here, take it! Besides, these flowers are not for anyone. Do not bother me! I'm busy, and don't follow me!" I said, immediately leaving without saying much more.
Alpha Gray took the flower and smiled. He just let Moon go.
Rosepion Apartments,
I opened the apartment door feeling tired and sad, and my heart was hurt. I don't know what made me feel so cold, but everything felt quiet, like the fear of being alone.
I locked myself in my apartment for a few days after the incident. I don't know what makes me so unwilling to talk to other people that I'm even reluctant to meet them.
My cell phone kept ringing for several days, and I finally received a call from an unknown number. As soon as I received the call, the loud sound made my ears hurt.
"Moon!" said Vivian on the phone, hearing screaming.
"Ah, my ear hurts! Speak in a normal tone." I said.
"Where have you been today? You were invisible and didn't come to the shop. "I knocked on the door many times, but there was no one in your apartment," said She on the phone.
"Oh, I'm at the apartment. I'm fine. I'm just not taking care of anything. I want to rest. "Please take care of the flower shop, okay?" I asked.
"Of course, Aresha and I will take care of it here. Thank goodness you're okay. We are very worried about you."
"Ah, yeah sorry about that."
"Moon, in recent days an old man has come to your apartment. He knocked on your door. Do you know him? He said you were the savior of the he family."
"Yeah, I think it was Master Wolfred. If he comes to my apartment again and you meet him, just say that I don't want to see anyone right now because I want to rest. If he gives you something entrusted to me. Please reject all of that, because I don't want to accept anyone's gifts and I'm just helping them, it's not a big deal. See you!," I said and immediately ended the phone call.
I threw the phone on the floor, but it didn't break, and I went back to sleep soundly. I try to calm my mind and not be sad. But in the end, I couldn't go back to sleep. Everything around me feels annoying.
I rushed to the bathroom and cleaned myself. Get ready to go after that. I decided to go in search of sweets.
