“Consider what? Are you not understanding human language?” Agnes was angry but restrained her emotions. “Do you have to make things so awkward? Can’t we just be friends? Do you want me to ignore you forever?”
“Bubu…” Ansel was anxious.
“Take it away!” Agnes emphasized, looking at him unhappily. “When did I ever agree to marry you? You just brought these things over without considering my feelings!”
Too many things had happened recently, and she was overwhelmed.
“I didn’t mean to upset you,” Ansel was on the verge of tears and hurried to explain. “I wanted to surprise you. My job is stable now, and I’m not bad-looking. I’ve been working hard to be excellent. I like you so much; why can’t you consider me?”
“Ansel, do you even know what love is?” Agnes stood up, her emotions a bit agitated. “Do you know what it feels like to have your heart flutter? How can two people with no feelings for each other be together? Love isn’t something that can be forced! It’s about mutual feelings!”
“I know!” The soft light made the boy’s eyes ache slightly. “If I didn’t know, I wouldn’t be standing here today!”
He felt a genuine warmth in his heart. “Love is humility, feeling unworthy of you! But I’m not that bad!”
This feeling made Agnes feel dazed.
“I think about you even during class, but I don’t dare to message you after class because I’m afraid of bothering you.”
Hearing this, Agnes’s heart skipped a beat. This feeling was exactly how she felt about Mr. Kitty.
She thought about him all the time, but when she finally picked up her phone to type a message, she hesitated and deleted it word by word, afraid of disturbing him…
Yes, love is humble and cautious.
Humble enough to bloom even in the dust, thinking it’s the most beautiful flower.
Seeing her distracted and seemingly touched, Ansel took two steps forward and held her shoulders.
For the first time, he confessed seriously and passionately, “Agnes… I like you. I don’t want to miss out. I want to be with you; I want to be brave for once!”
Not wanting to miss out…
Who wants to miss out?
She didn’t want to miss out on Mr. Kitty either. Not at all. But… she had no choice; she didn’t even know what to do.
He left, and it was hard for her even to see him.
Agnes suddenly realized how cowardly she was, not even half as brave as Ansel.
She had never confessed like this before.
“Agnes, what are you thinking?” Ansel observed her expression and felt something was wrong.
The girl slowly raised her tearful eyes to look at him. Her heart was pierced by some of Ansel’s words.
But Ansel seemed hopeful, thinking he had moved her and that she would try being with him and understand his feelings.
“Agnes, you’ll give me a chance, right? You like me too, right?” His voice trembled with joy. “Don’t worry; I won’t give up on studying. I’ll become better; I’ll build a home for us!”
“Ansel…” Agnes felt sad and put away all her anger and unhappiness. She even felt a bit sorry for him. But she had to stand firm in her position and organize her words.
She wouldn’t be with him, so there was no way she could give him hope.
Love is love; it’s not sympathy or pity.
This time it had to be clear!
“Say it; I’m listening!” Ansel hoped she would face their relationship seriously and consider their future instead of rejecting him without a second thought every time.
“Ansel, it’s impossible between us.” Agnes’s voice was soft; she really didn’t want to hurt him but had no choice but to say it again. “Don’t hold onto this obsession anymore; I have someone I like.”
