Angelo said on the other end of the phone, “Of course I’m not in a relationship, I’m a good girl now, okay?”.
Although Angelo is known in imperial circles for his flamboyant nature, his first love affair, of course, should be reserved for Princess Paulita, whom he has guarded since childhood. Although he is known in imperial circles for his flamboyant character, his first love affair, of course, should be reserved for Princess Paulita, whom he has guarded since childhood.
Around here, Paula Rouco bit her lip and hesitantly asked, “So, do you have a favorite?”
“Yes, of course I do.” She was the one he liked!
Paula Rouco asked curiously, “So, did you confess your love to that girl?”.
Is that a hint that he is now confessing his love?
But with something as important as a confession, he wanted to take it seriously, and when she returned to The Holy City from Imperial, he would be sure to give her a mega confession surprise.
No need to be in such a hurry now, not even on the phone, it’s too informal.
“Soon, I’m sure in no time, she and I will be officially together.”
No doubt, there will be a quick engagement.
Paula Rouco asked again, “Angelo, do you ever feel lost when you like someone, besides happy and eager?”
“Of course I do. Like when …” Angelo bit his tongue and paused, “Like when he doesn’t reach out to me, or text me back, or contact me often, of course I get lost.”
“Oh, I would too, and I’m still particularly unsure whether the other person likes me or not, and even if he does, whether he thinks about me all the time as much as I like him.”
Angelo froze at first upon hearing this and then burst with joy.
Is Paulita finally getting the idea? Is she finally thinking about him?
Angelo pursed the smile on his lips and said, “Of course she will, our Princess Paulita is so lovely and adorable, what unattractive person wouldn’t like her.”
Paula Rouco made a small-mouthed gesture at this, and in Severo Laris’ eyes, if she really was so charming and cute, she wouldn’t have to be so tired of chasing.
After hanging up the phone, Paula Rouco received an email from Estrella Berrocal.
I bought a flight at 5 p. m. the day before the vacation and arrived in La Ciudad Santa around 7 p. m., just in time to go home for dinner.
…
On the evening of the day she returned home from vacation, Paula Rouco first sent a Facebook message to Severo Laris, who never responded.
Analeigh was also going to the airport, so the two went together and took a cab to the airport.
Analeigh, seeing how distracted she was the whole way, nudged her on the shoulder and asked with a smile, “It doesn’t still bother you that Severo doesn’t come to see you off at the airport, does it?”
Paula Rouco didn’t deny it and said dejectedly, “This time I’ve been on vacation for many days, I’m back home, I’m not necessarily back to school soon, it’s going to be days until we can see each other, he’s not even coming to see me off, and we haven’t seen much of each other in the last few days.”
“Why, didn’t you say Severo was in his start-up period? Boys that age are meant to prioritize their careers, not to mention Severo is in his initial start-up period and is much busier than the average classmate.”
“So the girlfriend can hang out?” He grumbled under his breath.
Analeigh scoffs, “You blame Severo for my part, and then when Severo says something random to trick you, you cheer like a fat 200-pounder.”
“…” Where is she, she’s not happy like a 90 kilogram fat girl!
When we arrived at the airport, at the security checkpoint, Paula Rouco repeatedly looked back, expecting to see Severo Laris suddenly parachute out.
Analeigh couldn’t help but laugh at her, “Paulita, that’s the sixth time you’ve turned your head. How’s that saying about meeting in this life for the return of a head-turning glance from a previous generation?”
She puffed out her cheeks and looked at Analeigh.
Analeigh reminded her, “Okay, stop looking, we have to go through security, I’m not rich like your family, I’ll regret missing boarding time.”
Analeigh half drags, half drags Paula Rouco into the waiting room.
Analeigh, whose family is based in Q, boarded the plane a little before Paula Rouco, and after Analeigh left, Paula Rouco sat alone in the noisy terminal, surrounded by noise and commotion, but she felt incredibly lonely.
As she was about to board her flight, Paula Rouco was still unconsciously looking outside the terminal, which was crowded with people returning home from vacation.
Severo Laris was nowhere to be seen.
Forget it, she’ll get back to him when she returns to school.
Arriving at the gate and queuing, she stood at the end of the line, and when everyone in front of her had boarded, the field emptied instantly.
The ticket office staff smiled and said, “Please give me your ID and your ticket.”
Paula Rouco was about to hand it over when a clear and familiar male voice was heard behind her.
“lita.”
She froze and turned her head to stare in disbelief.
Severo Laris standing a short distance away, and at this moment the sun streamed in through the floor-to-ceiling windows of the terminal, enveloping him in a gentle warmth that had always been cold and distant.
Severo Laris smiled slightly at her, warmly and warmly.
Paula Rouco, surprised and excited, rushed into his arms and hugged him tightly by the neck.
“I thought you weren’t coming to see me off.”
The hall was packed and Severo Laris put his arm around her waist and patted her on the back, “Behave yourself in public, mind your manners.”
“Not me, I’m boarding soon…. No, how did you get in?”
Paula Rouco looked at him in surprise as Severo Laris pulled out the ticket in his hand, “To take you back to The Holy City. ”
Paula Rouco looked at the ticket in his hand and remained silent for a long time, her eyes full of excitement and joy.
“I thought you said you were busy.”
“Even if I am busy, I have to take my girlfriend home.”
It was rare that he was so eloquent, he was usually so stereotypical and serious that she thought he wouldn’t say anything at all about love.
Paula Rouco’s eyes glazed over, “You still know I’m your girlfriend, huh? I thought I was the girlfriend you had been looking for.”
The girl’s big, dark, misty eyes looked up at him, her little mouth flattened, looking sympathetic and aggrieved, wanting to throw a little tantrum but not daring, so aggrieved that Severo Laris’ whole heart melted.
“Well, even if you were my found bride, I wouldn’t lose her.”
“… You’re the one who picked it up.”
The girl cried and giggled, clenching her little fist to punch him.
Severo Laris’ big hand encircled her little one, “Go away, collected bride.”
The girl lifted her proud little face and said, “Severo Laris, you know you should never lose a bride you pick up, keeping her will be an unexpected surprise.”
Severo Laris smiles warmly, “What can you surprise me with that you can eat?”
“…”
Severo Laris, with his long legs, caught Paula Rouco in two or three steps after checking her ticket and ran towards the boarding aisle, grabbing her hand again.
“¡… Severo Laris!”
This man! He can’t talk!
That afternoon was beautiful, even the breeze smelled sweet.
Many years later, Paula Rouco learned that Severo Laris had worked for two days and two nights in order to catch the same flight back to The Holy City with her, and had even arranged to meet a client before arriving at the airport.
Severo Laris is always in love, deeply in his own way.
