Love Began with the First Meeting

"I'm sorry," Eric didn't know why he had to apologize, but when he saw Molly's tears, those were the only words he could say. He was still holding her face in his hands, while gently wiping away her tears with his thumbs,"I'm so sorry. Don't cry, okay? It was all my fault. I shouldn't have told you that. Just get mad at me or yell at me! But stop crying, please."

Molly pursed her lips and stared at Eric. But she was not exactly looking at him either, her eyes remained blank. Maybe she didn't hear him at all, and was drenched in her sadness.

Eric didn't know what to do and he started panicking too. It was the first time that he was facing a situation such as this. He felt like a child who had got himself into trouble and there were no adults around to help him. He thought of himself as being extremely useless. Eric kept wiping away Molly's tears, but her crying showed no signs of stopping and there were more and more tears rolling down her face. Eric was completely lost in the chaos and all he could do was bring Molly's face closer to his and gently kiss her on the forehead.

"Don't cry, okay?" Eric's tone was no longer as imperious as usual, but was concerned and upset,"It was all my fault. I shouldn't have said anything."

And then he tenderly kissed her on the eyelid. He was so unnerved that he thought that was the only way to get her to stop crying. There was a sudden gleam from the headlights of a car around the corner. Next moment, the car turned and reached near Eric's vehicle.

"Mr. Brian Long, it's Mr. Eric Long's car," said Tony.

From behind, Brian slightly tilted his head to one side and turned to look at the direction of the other car. The moment he saw Eric and Molly, he put on a grim and forbidding expression. His eyes narrowed, radiating danger. Like sharp knifes, his eyes tried to break through the window and separate the two who were clinging onto each other.

The car zoomed forward.

It quickly passed Eric's car. Tony glanced at the rear view mirror, and since Brian didn't ask him to stop, he kept driving along the road.

Brian's eyes slowly drifted back to the road ahead and they showed no emotions now. His thin lips curled into a mocking smile. His eyes became so dark that it looked like a bottomless well which was too deep to venture into.
