When she arrived back, she went inside her bedroo some tears of heartbreak and frustration
'Perhaps I feel this way because I have one-sidedly invested all ht of a lot of possibilities, but not the possibility of hi et? But he's the best-looking man around! It's not his fault, he just hadn't known ht His rejection just means that he respects me and his friends Besides, I haven't really confessed anything Coive up now He irl held his arm if he doesn't Reraht like a person, he will still act in a reasonable manner Recall the novel?'
