Falling in Love With A One-Night Stand

Late at night, a cab drove to the north of the city near the highway entrance. Anna and Jennie got out of the car while they were still miles away from their destination. And the driver looked surprised by it.

“Keep the change, sir!” Anna said as she handed the driver a fifty-dollar bill and looked him in the eyes.

The driver took the bill and kindly reminded her, “Thank you. Please be careful because this is a dangerous neighbourhood. Do you two live here?”

Anna said with a nod, “Our house isn’t far away. We’ll just walk there because the road ahead is rocky. Thank you so much:”

After that, the driver drove away.

The location was desolate. There were dim street lights on both sides of the road, and no one was in sight. Anna turned on her phone’s navigation and walked slowly to the abandoned power plant by the river with Jennie.

“Boss, they’ve arrived.” The large, abandoned plant echoed with a man’s voice.
