    “Stop this and sleep, Colin. Be nice,” I coddled in a hushed voice, forgetting that we hadpany.


    “No! I want kisses. Kisses!” His lips puckered up to kiss me. Scared, I mustered all my strength and


    pinned him back onto the bed.


    “Be nice now, Colin. I don’t like the smell of alcohol. I’ll let you kiss me when you’re sober, okay?”


    When I finally soothed Colin and remembered Felix, he had already left.


    Through the half–open door, I saw an orange light flicker in the dark on the balcony opposite us.


    When did Felixe back? Where was Lc? Why was Felix here? Why did he care if Colin and I


    were dating? What did he want?


    I couldn’t find an answer, and just like that, I fell asleep.


    I guessed I was an easygoing woman.


    I was roused by something warm in the middle of the night. As I opened my eyes, I realized that I was


    on the bed. Sleeping next to me was Colin, who had changed into his pajamas. His slender hand


    grabbed me by my waist so that I was sleeping in his embrace.


    Heat rushed to my head. I sat upright brusquely and pried his hand from me. Then, I punched him


    before I fled the scene.


    I thought I was a fast runner, but I still heard his devilish chuckle clearly.


    It made me think that he wasn’t that drunk, after all.


    Fortunately, Mom was waiting for me back home. Things could have been


    so much worse otherwise.


    “Lulu, can we talk?”


    1/3


    I sat next to Mom and hugged her. “I want to talk to you too, Mom.”


    “Lulu, are you serious about dating Colin?”


    “Yes, Mom. Colin pampers me. When I’m with him, I feel happy. He won’t make me cry, and he spoils


    me like a princess.”


    “You see, I watched as Felix and Colin grew up. I thought Felix was a decent


    kid but he…”


    I understood my mom’s concern as I, too, had the same worry once. But everyone was different. Just


    because I was hurt by someone did not mean I should distrust all humanity.


    Besides, Colin was no ordinary person. He grew up with me and loved me wholeheartedly. The only


    agenda he had was to make me his girlfriend.


    The world could be treacherous, but I was willing to take this risk.


    “Mom, Colin has been really kind to me. When I was at Lincoln University, Colin helped me with my


    daily life and studies. You might say that he did that to impress me, but he did it for three years. It’s


    more genuine than an


    act.


    “Besides, Colin was doing very well career–wise at Lincoln University. But to hang out with me, he


    came to Jesselton College and agreed to start from scratch. He uttered not a word ofint. In fact,


    he even enjoyed it.


    “And whenever Felix and Lce to ruin my days, Colin wille to my


    defense. I feel safe when I’m with Colin.”


    Mom patted my head affectionately. She wanted me to be happy but was worried that I might get hurt


    once again.


    She was dismayed by what Felix had done in the past. And now, she had her reservations regarding


    the boys from the White family.

    anymore, knowing that Colin would take good care of you.


    “I’ll let you decide what to do. Just promise me one thing. Protect yourself and let me know when


    something happens. I don’t want you to get hurt again.”
