The Returning Ex

Facing him, Lola lifted her fist and hit him on his chest. “You really scared the hell out of me. You don’t know how frightened I was.”

Unable to hold her tears any longer, she started crying in earnest.

Initially, Logan was still frowning, for he didn’t get what Lola was saying. When Lola embraced him and started crying, he asked, “You said you went to the clubhouse yesterday? When was it?”

With most of her tears smeared on his shirt, Lola said, “Around evening, but you weren’t there.” Almost by reflex, she pinched Logan’s waist. “I’ve asked you so many times, but you just kept lying.”

By then, the gym trainers and members had come down from the building.

Since they were unaware of the whole situation, all of them had a confused expression.

With her eyes flooded with tears, Lola still held onto him, as she felt so sorry for Logan. On the previous day, he had spent so much time working on this event, but when he got home, she was pulling a long face at him. On the way to work this morning, she even said such hurtful words toward him. Now that she thought about it, he must have been so excited over the surprise, but she was being downright mean toward him.

The more Lola thought about it, the more sorry she felt, as she held him even closer toward her.
