Predestined Marriage

If Rosie couldn't come up with an excuse, she had to follow Jessica.

But she was a bit reluctant to go.

Although Rosie was smart for her age, she was still a kid. Jessica was an adult, so how couldn't she see through what a kid was thinking?

Jessica observed Rosie while taking a few steps forward. She found that Rosie had a pretty serious look, frowning, with her lips pressing tight into a thin line.

Upon her arrival, Rosie was a bit anxious about it, nervously looking all around.

"Yes?" Rosie raised her head, looking a little jumpy.

"What's wrong? Why didn't you get in this bookstore?" Jessica asked in a gentle voice. She squatted down and looked Rosie in the eyes.

Rosie bit her lips and her hands clasped firmly together, "That's the place ... where you got injured last time, so I don't want to go there again."

She said in a low voice which sounded worried and uneasy, but she had given an explicit message.
