Chapter 214 Date

Something suddenly occurred to me, so I asked, “Doctor, do you have time now?”

“Please call me Adenauer. And yes, I have time. Do you want to buy a cup of coffee?”

I was stunned and asked, “How do you know what I want to say?”

It seemed he had a good memory because he even remembered I had offered to buy him coffee when we had walked out of the supermarket.

Adenauer turned to look at me, thought for a while, and raised his eyebrows, saying, “Maybe it’s an occupational disease. As a psychiatrist, I need to observe human beings.”

“You’re awesome,” I complimented him without reservation.

Then we went to a Starbucks nearby with Balu. Adenauer was self- disciplined and did not add sugar to his coffee.

Seeing my expression, he said, “I want to keep healthy.”

I joked, “Please stop reading my mind, Wizard Adenauer!”

When he laughed heartily, I found the man in his thirties had dimples. At the thought of this, I shook it out of my mind. After all, he was a wizard who could read people’s minds!

If he found out what I was thinking, I’d be so embarrassed that I would want to disappear.

It was getting late, and I needed to take Balu home and prepare dinner. So, Adenauer politely said goodbye to me at an intersection.

I had thought I would not see him anymore. But unexpectedly, since I had met him on his way off work that evening, I had always bumped into him while walking the dog.

At first, we had only said hello to each other. Gradually, we began to have small talk.

I was glad to know him because he was gentle and humorous. I had never had dealings with such a mature and tender man before. At most times, he could guess what I wanted to say before I opened my mouth. But I knew he was not showing off his professional abilities.

Even though a week had passed, he still maintained a moderate social distance from me. And I thought we were friends now.

However, things changed on Tuesday of the next week.

I had miscalculated the daily amount of the dog food Mrs. Krause had prepared for Balu, so I ran out of it a day earlier. Even though. she would be back tonight, I could not let Balu starve for over ten hours! So, I decided to go to the pet store to buy the same dog food by myself.

On the way, I came across Adenauer again.
