Chapter 388 Atimeforus “Sure.” She nodded and held her violin up again.

A while later, the sound of violin and piano started to dance together in the air. It was their first time playing together, but they meshed perfectly. Their eyes met, and everything else melted away until they were the only things left in the world. The love was getting denser and denser, as if it would become honey and appear out of thin air.

When the song was over, Nicholas sat her down on the long chair and wrapped his arms around her waist. “See? We are made for each other. It’s our first time playing, and we mesh together so well.”

She leaned against his chest, happiness bubbling inside her, and she felt touched. Tessa knew she would never forget this night for the rest of her life.

When their time was up, they went back to her apartment, and the moment she closed the door, Nicholas picked her up and went to the bedroom. She knew what he wanted to do, but she didn’t stop him. A while later, the bed started to rock lusciously, and it went on for hours.

She leaned against his chest weakly, listening to the sound of his heartbeat. It calmed her, but she felt upset when she remembered that he would be leaving the next day. She asked sadly, “What time is your flight tomorrow?”

“Seven in the morning,” he answered raspily.

Tessa gave him a tight hug and acted like a child for once. “But I don’t want you to go. I don’t want you to leave.”

Nicholas kissed her forehead. “Neither do I, but I believe that this separation is only going to end in a better reunion.” He wanted her to be with him at all times if he could. “Remember your dream? You told me you won’t give it up, so I’ll support you. I’ll be waiting for you to realize your dreams. Do your best, my love.”

Tessa would be lying if she said she wasn’t touched. She sniffled and nodded. “I’ll do my best.”

…

They woke up early the next morning, as his flight was the earliest one.

When they came to the gates, she sent him off tearfully, like a loving wife. “Take care of yourself, and don’t forget to eat. I’ll ask Edward about it. And… I’ll miss you.”

“I’ll miss you too. Take care of yourself. I’ll come again when I have time.” He wiped her tears away and said a gentle goodbye, then he went through the gates.

Her heart was gripped by a sad feeling after she sent him off, as if something was missing. But she cheered herself up and went to the orchestra. It was getting busier every day, since the performance was drawing near. She went to her practice room and started playing her violin, and eventually, she was immersed in the beautiful tune. It managed to soothe her sadness, albeit only a little.

She heaved a sigh after she was done with the tune. Tessa was going to have a little break and look through the music sheet, but then she saw someone at the door from the corner of her eye. “Kathleen, Mr. Brooks? What brings you here?” She was surprised to see them here, and she looked at them.

Scott knew she had misunderstood something, and he explained, “It’s not what you think. I’m just here to say that my break is over, and I’m going to leave on a tour. I’m here to say goodbye, but I bumped into Kathleen on my way, and she insisted on coming with me.”

Kathleen’s smile was wiped off her face right at that moment.
