Matt standing next to her. I hadn't seen him in days.
I tried to dodge them, but Matt spotted me first.
He came to a halt, the smile fading from his face and a frown creasing his brow.
"Mona Morris, what are you doing here?"
Grandma's grave was nearby, and her hometown was not far from here.
I had told Matt multiple times that I wanted to bring him to meet Grandma, my only relative in this world, but he always declined.
He had never met Grandma. Naturally, he didn't know why I was there.
I didn't want to waste my time with him. As I was about to leave, Abbie stopped me.
She has a bright and confident smile, with a hint of pride and provocation.
"Mona, to be honest, I'm a little embarrassed to say this. My house had a power outage that night, and I was a bit scared, so Matt came to accompany me. But please don't misunderstand. We just talked about business matters."
Abbie was a suitable match for Matt.
They broke up three years ago, and Abbie went abroad to study. Upon her return, she assumed the position of vice president in the family business.
