Love Began with the First Meeting

Her faint voice was like a sting to his ears and he felt as if his heart was being grabbed tightly by agony. The look in his eyes softened. He observed the streak of tears on her cheek and then looked into her eyes which did nothing to keep her secrets hidden.

Molly would never know what kind of thing had happened and would happen to her merely because of her beautiful eyes.

"So you still have the feeling of being numb, huh?" With knitted eyebrows, Eric stretched out his hands and pulled her against his chest rudely. Then he continued to ask in a low voice,"Can you try not to be in such an awkward position when I meet you the next time?"

"Nope," Molly replied in a dull tone, leaning against his chest. A smile appeared on her face, glad that she was still in the vein for jokes in such a situation, even though the smile contained more grief than happiness.

Her spoiled tone touched Eric's heart and he couldn't help hugging her more tightly. His anger at her for not answering his calls had all vanished at that moment.

They embraced each other quietly for a while. Then Molly broke the silence and asked,"Hey, didn't you say that you wanna go somewhere else? I'm freezing to death now."

Her tantrum left Eric dumbfounded. He slightly pushed Molly away from his chest. Then he met her eyes, shining below her fluttering eyelids, and asked coldly,"Then why were you sitting here? You deserve a freezing death."

In spite of his harsh words, he stood up and took Molly's hands, helping her stand up. When he touched her icy cold hands, he frowned and asked,"Why do your hands always feel as cold as ice?"

Molly followed Eric towards his bold red Lamborghini as she mumbled,"Because nobody warms my hands for me."
