Let's Get Married

The sound of the sea whizzes past his ears which makes atmosphere at the streets cozier. Ryan puts his hands in the pockets, stopping his steps slightly. He looks at her seriously and says, “You really like Adair.”

This time, he isn’t asking her a question, but instead he is declaring a statement.

Without evading his statement, Eunice admits, “You’re right, he’s a sweet boy.”

“Why?” He asks suddenly.

Eunice nearly forgets to react; it takes a few seconds for her to realize that he is asking her why she likes Adair.

“No reason. I just feel he’s pure and innocent. A child’s heart is not as complicated as that of an adult. Furthermore, a child is a gift from God. He has a good heart, so I’m especially fond of him.” Tang says in a soft tone. Her eyes are filled with gentle and care, which she appears to be more of a soft woman than usual.

Every woman is born with maternal instinct. At that moment, Ryan indeed feels this characteristic in her.

There’s a strange feeling in his heart. This emotion has continuously appeared recently, which makes him want to avoid reality unwittingly. He can’t really tell why, it’s just that the woman beside him seems much different from usual.

Eunice leans at the railing by the seaside and looks at the dark and silent sea in a distance. When the moonlight streams upon the sea, the tide reflects these moonlight, causing the glistening light of waves to ripple. The view is as though a galaxy sprinkles on the ocean.

She grabs her phone out from her pocket and takes a picture of the sea. When she is about to put it back into her pocket, she catches a glimpse at a man leaning against the railing. He puts his slender left arm on the railing, and his right arm slightly bends as he is slowly smoking his cigarette. The night wind blows and slightly messes his hair, but he doesn’t seem to care about it.

The street lights are not too bright, and most of them are faint yellowish. However, the light that falls on him is even more mesmerizing than the ocean.

Before knowing Ryan, Eunice always thinks that a man’s attractiveness is based on his facial figures. But after meeting him, she realizes that there is a kind of attractiveness that has nothing to do with looks. It is about personality and charisma. It is about how he has the ability to attract and capture people’s attention just by standing there.

The sparks produced by the cigarette on his fingertips are as if her mood right now. Maybe it’s because of her obsession with his appearance, she quickly lifts her arm and snaps a photo of him.
