Never Late, Never Away Chapter 97

Vivian felt like she had gone back in time. Before her was not the Fabian in suits, nor the Fabian who mocked her. It was the Fabian who was in a white T-shirt and jeans; the Fabian who rode around the campus and smiled like a boy at her.

Fabian did not notice the slight change in her gaze. He was still scowling at her, “Vivian, you’re a girl. Why are you pretending like you’re a hero?”

Vivian was stumped for a moment. Then, she burst into a chuckle.

Her lips curved into a bittersweet smile.

He would say this to her whenever she was pulling all-nighters for her scholarship; whenever she spoke up for fellow female classmates; whenever she would register for a marathon when she was on her period…

He would hold her in his embrace and sulk. “Vivian, have you forgotten that you’re a girl?”

Then, the sirens of the ambulance could be heard. Fabian picked her up and took no heed of the crowd’s curious glances. He rushed toward the ambulance.

Vivian was in a turmoil of emotions as she laid in Fabian’s arms. It felt so familiar, yet so distant.
