Sarah was greeted by the sight of Juan standing with a cigarette in hand as she exited the washroom.

It felt like an eternity had passed since the last time she saw him.

She used to be head over heels in love with him.

Yet, in the end, all those years of pining came to nothing. What is he doing here now that I’m ready to give up on him?

Could he be just like every other man who constantly yearned for what they couldn’t have?

Sarah would have wanted nothing more than to ignore Juan and be on her way, but he reached out and grabbed her hand.

He stopped her from walking forward.

Sarah was incensed. What’s the meaning of this? Does he think he can toy with me as he pleases without consequence?

“Juan, is it necessary to make things so ugly? All things aside, we will bump into each other as long as we stay in Jipsdale. Wouldn’t it be awkward if things between us were to get out of hand?”

Juan had no idea how she had undergone such a radical transformation.

“Don’t you like me? Why don’t we get together since both of us are single?” The truth was he had no clue whether what he felt for her was true love.

Lately, her face kept showing up in his mind. In fact, he thought of her all the time.

Everything was driving him nuts.

Perhaps giving their relationship a shot would dispel any uncertainty that he had.

Sarah scoffed.

“So what if I am still single? Do you think it’s because I still have feelings for you? You sure are delusional!”

Juan’s brows furrowed. How can she say that?

“Juan, I’ve already said this, but you mean nothing to me now. Don’t ask for an explanation, as I have none. Please don’t come looking for me ever again.”
