Chapter 440 - Why? (1/2)

The song ended and everything went silent.

The world seemed to have halted as Hinari started wiping her tears. She bit her lip as she put the mic down. She was disappointed that when the song ended, her heart was still aching. It seemed like there was no cure for it.

Clutching her heart, Hinari turned towards the table and she started pouring alcohol into her glass. She drunk it in one go before she poured another glass full.

However, before she could put the glass to her mouth, someone held her wrist and stopped her. She raised her face and she was right, it was her beauty, her untouchable and beautiful firefly, Zaki.

”Ohh… my beauty, you're here. Where's my Davi?” she asked as casually as she could but the effect of alcohol on her was already evident in her eyes.

”She left with her husband,” Zaki answered before he gazed at her intently. ”Hinari, I have something to tell you.”

As soon as Hinari heard him, she suddenly felt her heart squeezing tightly. Looking into his eyes, Hinari felt her eyes getting hot again because for some reason, she could feel that whatever he was going say that moment was going to break her heart.

”Hinari… I---” Just as Zaki started speaking, Hinari suddenly shoved him away and she ran off. Zaki immediately ran after her and gladly, he caught up to her.

He held Hinari's wrist to stop her.

”Hinari… listen, please,” Zaki pleaded. He held Hinari's shoulders, making her stop and look at him. When the girl gazed back at him, Zaki's jaws tightened and his lips began to tremble slightly.

”Hinari… I… I'm sorry… I'm sorry… We… Our engagement… Let's---”

Before Zaki could finish his statement, Hinari's palms covered his lips. Her eyes started to well and her lips trembled.
