A Moment in Destiny

Rae stared blankly out of the window. She didn’t move at all for a long time. Unknowingly, the time had passed. About two to three hours passed and it was already around eleven o’clock late evening now. Rae still didn't move. She sat in the office all the time. The building was very quiet and she didn't care about anything. Then, a low voice came from the door, “What are you doing here?”

Rae was slightly surprised. As soon as she turned around, she saw Marcel standing at the door. He stared at her deeply and delicately. Rae felt thrilled in her heart. For a person with such sharp eyes, Marcel’s existence could not be ignored. Rae once had him but now Marcel looked at herself with sharper and colder eyes.

Rae felt even more sad, but what happened today was what she wanted. She wanted to run over to Marcel now. She wanted to hug Marcel and tell him the secret in her heart. She wanted to tell him that she was Natalie, not Rae. She wanted to tell him, “I was your junior in the past. Have you forgotten me?”

However, she knew she couldn’t. She absolutely couldn’t. Maybe Marcel wouldn't believe it at all. She hadn't investigated anything yet. Her effort could go to waste if she did something wrong now.

Then all plans would be disrupted.

“Captain Hopkins, haven't you gone back yet?” Rae stood up, she packed her bags and was ready to leave.

Marcel kept quiet.

The breeze blew through the door, and a faint smell of tobacco came with the wind. The smell was very faint as if it was nothing, Rae smelled the familiar tobacco smell, which belonged to Marcel.

“What are you doing here?” Marcel repeated again.

“I'll leave now!” Rae didn't answer his question. She took her bag and continued to walk out. When she passed by Marcel.

Marcel's voice was soft and cold as the breeze in spring; it felt like a cruel breeze blowing the flowers falling to the ground. He said, "Don't try to save our relationship, you and I are impossible to be together!"

Rae was slightly surprised to hear this. In his eyes, did she look like she wanted to save their relationship? Oh, it turned out that he misunderstood her. She stayed in the office for several hours. Because she was trying to save their relationship? Rae didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, but she didn't really care. Her eyelashes trembled slightly and she smiled lightly.

Rae slightly raised her head to look at Marcel. She asked gently, "Which eye of yours sees that I want to save our relationship?"

As soon as Rae said this, Marcel raised his eyebrows and looked at Rae’s face coldly.

Then, there was a silence between them.

Finally, in this rare silence, Rae took her own steps and walked past Marcel firmly and calmly. She walked out of the office.

Without looking back, she straightened her back and went out.

She didn’t even know where the future was? How could she think about relationship matters? She now had more important things to do than taking care of her relationship. She wanted to investigate all the mysteries and uncover the answers.

It was late at night when she came out. She was standing outside of the unit building, letting the chilly wind blow on her, invading her heart. It was just late autumn. Winter had not come yet but she felt like it was already winter now.

Rae walked a few steps, and then she suddenly saw that the video store in the alley was still open. She thought about it, and then walked over to the shop. Then she saw Kane was still in the store. Someone was selecting CDs. Rae walked over and selected a few CDs too. She didn't go to the checkout until all the customers were gone. At this time, Kane spoke to her, "The weather is getting cold, remember to wear more clothes!"
