Revenge

Aaron Gu frowned; his attention was still seized by that bowl of messy soup; he spoke indifferently to phone: “Okay.”

He took out a money from the wallet and handed it to the chef after hanging up the phone; chef did not take the money but laughed at him: “That girl has already paid for you, remember?”

Aaron Gu seemed a bit surprised and looked up into the smiling eyes of the chef, his face cold and expressionless as usual.

Seeing him turn around, the boss said politely after him, "Take your time and come here often when you are free. Do not try spicy jelly if you are not ready; I have only seen two girls who could do hot to that extent; one was a girl who has not shown up for years with her boyfriend, and the other, the girl who sat across you...Well, that’s something...hahaha...”

As if he had not heard what he said, Aaron Gu walked into the noisy crowd and felt a little lost.

All is quiet at dead of night; Amanda sat in the open air on the flower bed, looking at the bright neon in the distance, feeling like a homeless ragpicker; she was still living the moment of their meeting in the snack bar; she had long made up her mind to be a sweet and obedient lamb in front of Aaron Gu if she was to meet him again. But when she met him in the bar, she found it impossible.

He had been acting like that he was mistreated and abandoned by the world. Was it because Amanda had died and disappeared from the world forever?

He he, Amanda was amused by her own thought; she had been dead for over three months; Did Aaron Gu get the news till today? If he was saddened by her death, what had he been up to in this three month? The memory they shared, the happiness they had, what did they mean to him? Was it a bit too late to mourn for her and their past.

Yeah, everything was too late, long before her death.
