Me Before You

Just a slap changed the whole atmosphere. There was pin-drop silence and the atmosphere turned gloomier.

Anna looked at her hand that she just used to slap him and regretted her impulsive act. On the other side, John Peter was just standing there in a daze, maintaining his posture, motionlessly.

After a while, Anna opened her mouth, "well, John Peter, I..."

"Do you hate me so much?" She was about to say something but John Peter interrupted her. He turned his face sullenly and the red color on his face was un-ignorable.

"What?" Anna was stunned for a while, then she quickly denied, "John Peter, no, I don’t..."

"No? Don’t you hate me? Then what does this slap mean?" John Peter again interrupted Anna’s words.

"Forget it, since you don’t want to believe, then you can think whatever you want." In front of his stubborn accusation, Anna felt helpless. She just said this, turned, and continued to walk upstairs.

John Peter stared at her resolute back, and tightly clenched his fist.

For her sake, he gave up studying abroad. He heard that his uncle had divorced her, just thought of her pitiful appearance, he rebelliously decided to come back. Even when his father lost his temper, he didn’t regret his decision. Because of all these matters, his mother fell ill.

Just because for her, he didn’t care about any other thing. He never thought that she would treat him like this and even slap him on the face.

Anna was just shocked by her impulsive act. But John Peter was feeling broken-hearted. Because in his whole life, no one ever dared to touch him except Charles Peter, but she slapped him on the face.

Peter angrily raised his head and looked at Anna’s back, going upstairs. A certain kind of bitterness spread in his heart and he rushed
