Yet, the doorstep was empty, not a soul in sight.

It must have been her imagination; she thought someone had come.

Thalassa snapped back to reality, only to find Callum's earnest, warm eyes fixed on her. The initial eagerness in his gaze faded to a dim light, finally sinking into a deep, heavy sorrow.

At first, Callum had been staring into Thalassa's eyes, but as she finished speaking, his gaze gradually fell. His face clouded over as he looked down, his lashes casting a shadow over his eyelids.

He was filled with the impulse to love Thalassa in place of Leopold, thinking perhaps his status as Leopold's best friend might endear him slightly to her.

I thought I could spend three years forgetting you, falling for someone else, but I couldn't do it. Liking you has become the goal of my life, and one day, I'll make you like me back."
