Let's Get Married

The man appears to just notice her; he glances over and wants to anger her. But when his gaze falls upon her, it fixates on her.

Today, she is wearing a light pink jacket, a very fresh color. Inside she wears a V collar blouse. With a pair of whitewashed tight jeans, on her feet is a pair of white sneakers. Half of her hair is let down and half tied behind her head. One look and she appears to be a college student.

Rex immediately recalls the time they met in a bar five years ago. It was the same feeling. In the pompous and extravagant environment, she is like a daisy on the peak of a rocky outcrop.

Five years passed and the child is already so big. She is already twenty-nine years old. But time seems to be very kind to her. Not only is she spared from aging, but she also looks even younger.

She has a baby face and doesn’t look like the mother of a child, especially when she smiles.

Lily notices the deep stare of the man and feels uneasy and begins to adjust Adair’s collar to avoid his gaze.

What is he looking at with such concentration? Is there something on her face?

Lily endeavors to keep a neutral expression. She doesn’t want to appear in such a way that makes him misunderstand.

“What do you want to drink? Uncle will have someone prepare.” Rex waves for a waiter.

Adair ponders and says, “I want soda!”

“No.” Lily immediately objects, “Soda’s bad for your teeth, you can have some juice.”

“Okay.” Adair is not spoilt, “then I’ll have some orange juice, thanks.”
