"If you don’t take your big drama queen away, I can’t guarantee what Axel might do!"
I think my reminder came a bit too late. With Grace's scream, everything escalated.
The wine in Axel’s hand was already splashed on her face.
"You guys are going too far!" Harper quickly pulled Grace into his arms and hurriedly walked out.
In that instant, everything felt strangely familiar.
Axel asked, "It’s cold. Why aren't you wearing more layers, Zelda?"
It was also the phrase Harper said to me the most during winter.
One time, when it was snowing outside, I accidentally lost my keys and Harper was at a meeting in the company at the time.
When I found out I couldn’t go back home, she immediately dropped everything to come find me.
At that time, he cared for me just like he did for Grace. He brought me clothes and as soon as he saw me, he tightly embraced me. After we got home, he made me ginger soup.
And after that, I completely gave my heart to him.
Now, I finally understand. It turned out that love could be disguised.
"What's wrong? Are you still holding onto your ex?" Axel's words pulled me out of my memories.
"He's just trash, there's nothing worth missing!"
