Love Began with the First Meeting

Molly wasn't happy about Eric's reaction, and said,"It's more than enough. We can surely have a simple but nice night snack with it. I know you're rich and I don't blame you if you don't know how to have a nice meal with a few hundreds. You don't know how to enjoy life."

Eric was speechless by what Molly had said. But that was not true, he surely knew how to enjoy life.

"You mean someone like you would know?" Eric taunted Molly. He understood that Molly wouldn't want to share what she's been going through at this moment, so he decided to just go along with her.

"Yes, of course!" Molly said without any hesitation, and continued,"Let me, the senior gourmet, show you where to find the most delicious snacks in the city! Let's go!"

Eric was amused by Molly's enthusiasm. Raising his hand, he tapped Molly's forehead with his forefinger and said,"You? A senior gourmet? People who don't know you definitely would think that you are underaged. You're always acting like a child."

"Hey! Stop saying that I'm a child. We are of the same age," Molly glanced at Eric and said. "So? Do you want to grab something to eat?"

"Yes, of course. Let's go," Eric spoke while he started the car. "Spending Brian's money, eating with Brian's woman... It feels great!"

Molly held the bills tighter as she heard what Eric had said. She felt a little awkward when Eric put it that way. Eric was aware of her reaction and turned to her in an attempt to change the subject. But before he could say anything else, Molly had already put on a smile on her face, pursed her lips and said,"I think that's great too!"

Looking at the awkward smile on Molly's face, Eric paused for a second and asked,"Where should we go?"

"South Street Alley, please." answered Molly at once.

"The slum?" Eric asked with widened eyes.

"No, it's just an ordinary alley," Molly said, with a little discontent in her voice.

"So, we are going to a slum," Eric said firmly, arching an eyebrow.
