    “Why did you want to give me a present so suddenly? Marilyn asked curiously. She held her bracelet


    with her other hand.


    Larissa said honestly, “I’m going back to Caldor next week.”


    “What?” Marilyn was shocked. “Are you really going to teach Aldovian?”


    “I don’t know. I’ll think about it when I get back.” Larissa smiled and made up an excuse. “I just miss


    home. I’m all alone here, and without


    work, it’s a struggle.”


    “That is true.” Marilyn pursed her lips, sobering up. “Will you stille back to Westonia?” she asked.


    “We’ll see. If I find a suitable job in Caldor, I might not evene back,” Larissa said.


    “Well, what about him?” Marilyn nced at Allen. There was mischief in her eyes. “What if he’s just


    waiting for you to turn back?”


    Larissa exined in exasperation, “There’s nothing between us.”


    “Alright, alright! I get it. Nothing between you,” Marilyn said, all smiles. It was obvious that she didn’t


    think so.


    Because of Allen, Larissa was not looking as forward to this dinner as she had been.


    She’d nned to talk with Marilyn more. But Allen would sometimes nce over, and that would make


    her anxious. After their meal she


    called the waiter over to pay the bill.


    The moment they stepped out of the restaurant, Allen came running over.


    “Larissa” he called out as if afraid that she wouldn’t hear him.


    Larissa had to stop. She turned and asked, “Is there anything else you need me for?”


    “It’s Sunday tomorrow. Do you have anything going on?” Allen asked. “I’m nning to take Freddy out.


    Do you and Noah want toe


    together?”


    “Im not avable tomorrow. Sorry about that,” Larissa refused. “Have a st you two!”


    “But Freddy really wants you to go.” Allen held Larissa’s hand, not wanting her to leave unless she


    agreed.


    Larissa didn’t want to argue with him. She shook his hand off sullenly.


    “I told you. Allen, I’m not avable.”


    A dark cloud obscured Allen’s eyes for a moment, but he remained calm.


    “Alright” he said a little regrettably. “Apologies for disturbing you.”

    Larissa did not care about him anymore. After saying goodbye to Marilyn, she crossed the road to her


    car.


    She couldn’t turn in the middle of the road. so she had to make a U–turn at the junction up front.


    While at a distance away, she could see Marilyn and Allen standing together at the restaurant’s


    entrance.


    They were talking to each other. Larissa couldn’t hear what was being said, and she couldn’t see the


    expressions on theirces.


    Several questions popped up in her head.


    Had they met before?


    Or was Allen harassing Manlyn?


    What if there was another possibility?


    The car drew nearer. The restaurant lights were incredibly bright.


    Larissa could clearly see Marilyn saying something to Allen with a smile, to which he responded with a


    simr smile.


    She didn’t want them to notice her, so she stepped on the pedal and soon disappeared.
