Ellinor tilted her face slightly and stared deeply into the blue sky. âYou like her beauty and her independence, right? Sheâs different from those annoying chicks in your school, isnât she?â
Byran felt Ellinor hit the nail on the head and nodded in agreement. âYeah, pretty much!â
Ellinor chuckled. âYouâre into mature women now, but what about the future? When youâre in college and meet some accomplished and independent girls, you might get the hots for them too.â
Byran disagreed and furrowed his eyebrows in discontent. âWhy would you say that? Do you think Idaâs just some plain Jane that any random chick can compare with her?â
Ellinor looked at Byran. âIn my eyes, sheâs definitely one of a kind. But maybe youâre just fascinated by her novelty, mistaking it for love.â
Byran lifted his head proudly. âIâm not like that! Iâm not some guy who gets around. I donât fall in love easily, but when I do, itâs for keeps! Iâm serious about Ida; Iâm going to marry her!â
Ellinor did not look down on him or distrust him, she just thought his thinking was too naive.
Who hadnât fantasized about being with someone forever during their teenage years?
But in the end, everyone went their own way.
Especially men, they were as unpredictable as the weather.
འ༤ Being in a relationship for fun was fine as long as both parties were into it.
The worst was when only one person was invested Though Ida was mature, clear headed, and independent, it didnât mean she wouldnât get caught up in it.
Just like herself. She once had full confidence in herself, believing she wouldnât be easily fooled by any man. But what happened?
Noticing that Ellinor was in a daze and not responding. Byran reminded her discontentedly. âHey! Are you going to answer me or not? The Crescent Society isnât far from here. Iâll only be out for an hour at noon, Iâll definitely be back on time!â
Lost in her thoughts, Ellinor looked at Byranâs sincere face and chuckled. âGo aheadâ
At least for now, Byran was still innocent and wouldnât deceive Ida.
As for what he would turn into in the future, who knew?
After getting the green light, Byran grinned, revealing his white teeth. âI knew youâd say yes! Ida told me you look cold on the outside, but youâre soft on the inside. She was right!â
Ellinor snorted. âIf youâre even a minute late, Iâm calling your brother Byran assured her seriously. âI wonât be late! Donât worry! But now, youâll have to hold the umbrella yourself. I need to go meet Ida, so I have to change my clothes and fix my hair.â
With that, he handed the umbrella to Ellinor and took off running Ellinor fell silent.
He was like a teenage girl; he was even fussing about picking clothes and doing his hair.
This showed that it was a simple and pure love, with no impurities.
Suddenly, Ellinor remembered something. She picked up her phone, which was sitting aside, and froze.
The video call was still going on, Theoâs figure wasnât in the frame, but there was someone else.
Sophia was sitting confidently in Theoâs office chair, touching up her makeup and applying lipstick in front of a small mirror.
