Alice will misunderstand…
Alice will misunderstand…
Only these words remained in Yanis’ mind, and a startling thought flashed through his mind, and Yanis quickly erased it and denied it.
How could this be? She should be wrong.
Although Yanis comforted herself, Zain realized that her face turned pale at that moment, as if she had received terrible news.
When he rejected her before, his face was not so ugly.
Thinking about this, Zain realized that he had probably misunderstood what she had just said.
Regardless if it was necessary, he frowned and asked her, -What are you thinking about?
It would be nice if he didn’t ask, and when he asked, it gave him a feeling as if he had a guilty conscience. Yanis bit his lower lip and repressed the thoughts in his heart.
-You just said that Alice will misunderstand, what do you mean?
He bit his lower lip and squatted down and asked.
Listening, Zain frowned.
He really misunderstood what she meant.
Fortunately, he had asked one more question.
Zain shifted the bag in his hand to the other side and said quietly, -Alice is my only relative, and I am also the only relative of hers. If I, her brother, have any progress from my relationship, she will definitely be the one to worry about the most. And you, you are her friend, I don’t want her to think that there is any possibility between you and me, and even think of ways for us to be together.
These words came out clearly, didn’t they?
After hearing Zain’s explanation, she breathed out a sigh of relief, but at the same time felt as if her heart had broken.
Fortunately, it was not what she thought.
But… he didn’t really like her to such an extent, she feared that Alice would look for ways for them to be together.
She lowered her eyes, as if losing her temper.
-Okay, I see, I’ll buy a coat later, and return your coat.
After speaking, she quickly turned and walked forward.
This time, Yanis walked very fast and quickly turned back when he saw a women’s clothing store nearby.
Naturally, Zain didn’t go in either, standing outside casually waiting with a bag in his hand.
About a few minutes later
A saleswoman came out with a black coat in her hand, looked around and finally fixed her eyes on Zain, as if confirming something.
Zain noticed she was holding her coat and approached.
-What’s the problem?
-Sir, is this coat yours?
Zain nodded, “Well, didn’t she buy anything yet?
The saleswoman smiled, her eyes looked a little uncomfortable.
-Yes, the lady asked us to return the coat to you.
Zain was silent for a moment before reaching out to take the coat.
Probably because she thought it wouldn’t look good when she held it in her hand, the saleswoman said again, -Wait a moment, I’ll bring you a bag to pack it in.
Zain did not refuse. Soon she brought the bag and packed the coat for him. At this time, Yanis had not come out. The saleswoman’s expression looked a little hesitant. Zain looked at her and she said hesitantly,
-Sir, the lady inside said she would stay longer here to buy things, so … you go back first.
Zain paused with his bag hand, and after a while nodded, -All right.
After thinking about it, he said again, -Tell her to come back as soon as possible, otherwise her friend will be worried about her.
-Okay sir, I will tell her.
Soon, Zain took the bag and left without looking back.
When the saleswoman returned, Yanis sat on the fitting room stool in a daze, wearing the newly purchased coat. When she returned, Yanis looked at her expectantly.
She said to Yanis with a hurt expression.
-Miss, that gentleman is gone now.
As soon as she finished saying, she saw the light in Yanis’ eyes disappear.
In an instant, the atmosphere became heavy, the saleswoman had seen no such thing, so she was a bit helpless, she didn’t know how to comfort her, let alone whether she would buy this coat or not.
However, that man did not do right, she told him to come back first, and he actually came back.
-Are you two a couple?
Hearing her voice, Yanis came back with his consciousness and shook his head with a wry smile, -No.
Suddenly, the saleswoman’s expression looked embarrassed.
If they were not boyfriend and girlfriend, then… she was not qualified to criticize the man.
-I like him, but he doesn’t like me.
After speaking, Yanis took off her clothes and handed them to the salesgirl.
The saleswoman’s face was a bit ugly, but she didn’t say anything, she was already so sad that she was definitely not in the mood to buy clothes.
-Help me pack it.
The saleswoman was a little surprised, but nodded her head.
-All right, wait a minute.
After paying the money, Yanis took the clothes and prepared to leave.
The saleswoman chased after her and walked towards the door. Seeing her desperate look, he couldn’t help but say, “Miss, it’s very cold. You should put on your clothes. I can help you cut the label.
Listening, Yanis paused for a moment and then smiled kindly at her.
-No need, I’m not cold.
-Miss, you are not cold now because there is heating in this mall. When you leave the mall, it won’t be hot anymore.
-I know, I’ll use it after I leave the mall, and now… I’m going to see other stores.
Yanis had said so, and the saleswoman didn’t insist anymore, just nodded her head and watched her go.
Yanis took out the clothes she had in her hand and left the mall.
Indeed, as the saleswoman said, he was no longer warm after leaving the mall, but this time Yanis really felt that it was not as cold as before.
He was holding his clothes in his hand, but he didn’t want to put them on at all.
Maybe this coldness could sober her up?
Thinking about this, Yanis curved her lips and smiled.
When she would become more sober, it might lessen her liking for Zain. It had been so long. Although she could be deeply in love, it was not impossible to diminish her love.
Yanis walked forward aimlessly, her body was almost numb from the cold.
She had had a life with ease since she was a child, when she encountered some small difficulties, she could solve them at all times, only feelings.
Secret love, one-way love.
It was really bitter.
So bitter.
If it was possible, she really hoped she could master her own heart. If Zain didn’t like her, then she might like other people. It wasn’t as if no one liked her.
Yanis laughed and shed tears, and those on the street looked at her like she was crazy.
She didn’t know how long this situation lasted. Finally, when a figure blocked her path, her steps stopped.
When she saw a familiar pair of shoes, her heart pounded.
Could it be that Zain came back to look for her?
After she raised her head, she saw Nathan standing in front of her with a frown on his face.
After Nathan saw the tear marks on her face, his brows furrowed further.
-Nathan?
Yanis snickered to herself when she saw him.
