24 Are You Cursing Me To Die? (1/2)
Chen Jian watched as the taxi Yun Anong got into go off into the distance.
Ever since the day he met her on the rooftop, he glued himself to her any chance he got at school. At first, it was just for his own entertainment. Especially when she makes the annoyed face that she doesn't like him. Which was odd because all the girls wanted a chance to be near him.
While she wished herself to go unnoticeable by him and everyone. Someone like Yun Anong who came from a middle-class background would most likely try to befriend anyone from Winterville high school. Everyone who attends the school is either wealthy or from a prominent family. She was an odd one.
Eventually, she started to accept him by letting him hang out around her. Instead of being entertained by her annoyed face, he became captivated when he saw her smile. His reason for her began to change from entertainment to needing a friend like her. Compared to someone who will suck up to him for benefits.
He wasn't sure when he had first developed feelings for her. Maybe it was when they had met each other on the rooftop. He was never one to believe in love at first sight until he met her. Yun Anong was his first love and his only love for the past seven years.
Chen Jian rested his head against his steering wheel. Yun Anong appearance had changed. From those pinchable cheeks to a slim face, curvey waist and a full-size chest.
Chen Jian gripped the steering wheel and opened his eyes. It was filled with the same danger that he had emitted earlier. Someone had touched her, he didn't mean the slap but the dark mark by her collar.
Before she had changed out of her shirt, he did see a purple mark on her collar. He had forgotten about it until she was laying on the bed when he had pushed her down.
Chen Jian was waiting for the right moment to ask her, but he couldn't bring himself to pressure her too much, or she might drift further apart from him. Then she mentioned she'll treat him out next time. He decided to let it go since he had another chance to meet up with her again.
Knowing Yun Anong, if she does not want you to know something or find her. You will never know it or find her. Oddly, he did try to find her for the last seven years, only to come up with nothing.

By the time I returned back to my house, it was already getting dark. Yes, I returned back to my house and not my small rundown apartment. I was about to open the door, but it was swung open before I had a chance to touch the doorknob.
”I had to refrain myself from starting the hot pot without you!” shouted the person who opened the door.
