When There Is Nothing Left But Love

“Haven’t we just eaten?” It was a little past noon, and we had eaten lunch.

He raised his brows, “You consider that as lunch?”

I went speechless at his question. I pursed my lips and contemplated, “I can’t think of what to eat right now.”

The car passed by the city center. There was a dessert shop in the streets with a long queue.

I asked curiously, “Is their food nice? There are so many people queueing.”

Marcus took a side glance and parked the car by the road. He looked at me and said, “Wait for me in the car. Don’t get out. It’s cold outside. I will be back soon !”

Before I had the chance to reply, he jogged towards the dessert shop and joined the queue.

His good looks shone in the crowd. Moreover, his tall and slender figure made him stood out like a crane.

I leaned against the car window and watched quietly. People approached him with their phones occasionally, probably trying to ask for his number.

He was friendly. He pointed to the car and waved his hands with a faint smile. It seemed like he had rejected them.

After that scene repeated a few times, the girls stopped approaching him. On the other hand, people seemed to be looking towards my direction more frequently.

I didn’t know what happened, so I could only nod and gave a faint smile to look friendly.

Half an hour later, he jogged towards me with the dessert in his hands. He boarded the car and passed the dessert to me, “I bought a little of everything. You can try it all and tell me which one you like.”
