Luna shook her head. "Grandpa, Levian has so many fans. I don't have to be there."Her intertwined fingers showed otherwise."Grandpa, I need to clean my room!"Luna rushed to her room, and closed the door. She grabbed her phone, and looked for tickets. Levian's name popped up as soon as she typed his initial.She was overjoyed that Harlan was telling the truth. There really was a racing competition in the city. Unfortunately, her happiness didn’t last two seconds.Luna stared at the screen with a frustrated face. The tickets were sold out!She smiled bitterly. "It's always so challenging to get to you." Luna was down the whole day. When it was dinner time, the delicious food served on the table couldn’t arouse her interest at all.Luna plucked at the food on the plate, showing no appetite.Harlan put down his spoon and fork, concerned. "Luna, is there anything wrong with the food?"Luna gave him a forced smile, and symbolically took a few spoons of food into her mouth. "No,
Fernando grabbed her hand and shook it a few times, surprised. "Awesome! Why didn't you tell me?"Luna smiled slightly at him. Fernando shouted even more enthusiastically after knowing that Luna was also a fan of Levian.On the big screen, Levian was driving wantonly. He started the engine, put it into gear, and stepped on the accelerator, fast and precise. Finally, he won the race. The audience cheered for his outstanding skills.His victory was highly anticipated.At the end of the competition, Levian, the champion, went to the stage to deliver his speech."Mr. Carter, do you have anything to tell your fans?"Levian smiled confidently. "All racers have only one goal. Speed to the end." There was thunderous applause in the stadium.Luna looked at Levian on the big screen, fascinated.That was the man she loved. He was such a great man!"Here comes our photograph session. We’ll select several lucky audiences randomly to take photos with our champion. Here goes the camera!"
Levian pursed his lips, and looked away calmly.Fernando looked very excited. "Luna, it's our turn. Let's go." Luna said with a smile, "You go first."Fernando nodded and walked toward Levian. He held his chest. Grinning, he gushed, "I've been dreaming about this!"Levian looked at Fernando, and involuntarily glanced at Luna.He pursed his lips and nodded to Fernando with a smile. Then, he took Fernando's phone, and took a welfie.His smile became stiff in the subsequent photos.He touched his chest. He had a strange feeling. It felt like his arteries and veins were blocked, giving him a stuffy sensation.They took a group photo after the wefies."Luna, take off your hat and mask!" Fernando said. Luna was speechless. She should’ve taken someone else with her!"Everyone, get ready!" the photographer urged."Okay," Luna answered.Luna stood at the back, looking toward at under the overhead light as he was surrounded by his fans. That moment was captured after a shutter sou
"Let's go to another restaurant," Levian whispered.His friend looked at him in confusion. "Why? We're already here.""I'm tired of eating here." Levian walked away expressionlessly.His friend froze, and murmured bemusedly, "We never came here before. Are you sure?"Levian had a strange feeling. However, it faded before he could figure out why.He then realized he cared for Luna, ever since they took photos together that day. He pretended they were strangers when he realized she didn’t want her boyfriend to know they were familiar with each other. Levian pursed his lips.He had never cared for anyone except for Melody.Smiling to himself, he shook his head helplessly.-After that day, Luna studied hard after. Aside from that, she spent her spare time transforming herself into a mature woman.She kept herself busy in order to push Levian out of her mind.In the blink of an eye, her industrial training was over."Luna, we're going back to Bayridge today. Your parents and
Luna turned, and saw Melody smiling and waving to her. Melody approached her with a smile."Luna, you look so beautiful today," Melody praised.Luna smiled shyly, and looked around Melody casually. Levian wasn’t with her. Luna pursed her lips, a little disappointed.Suddenly, Melody waved to someone behind Luna."Andrew, Lev, over here!"Luna turned immediately. Levian and Andrew were walking toward them slowly. Luna was attracted to Levian the moment she saw him. After a few seconds, she looked away, trying to avoid eye contact with him. She suppressed her nervousness and excitement, pretending to be calm."Andrew, Lev, you look stunning," Melody praised with a smile.Andrew smiled warmly in response. "Thanks. You look gorgeous, Mel."Levian interrupted playfully, "I look better than him."Andrew glanced at him, speechless."Nice dress, Mel," Levian said. Then, he looked at Luna and praised her like a gentleman, "Miss Bailey, the fit is perfect on you."Luna looked at hi
Levian looked at her red ears, and smiled. His mood somehow got better because of her cute reactions.Melody observed them quietly, chuckling when she saw them talking. When she imagined them dating, she was amused. Andrew heard her laughter, and looked at her confusedly. "Anything funny, Mel?"Melody's expression immediately returned to normal, and she said calmly, "Nah."Andrew looked at her thoughtfully. Melody, Levian, and Luna appeared strange; he wondered if they had hidden something from him. Suddenly, he heard an explosion. Gray smoke billowed in the air; the lights on the stage were off, and there was a fire."Fire! Run!!!"The guests screamed in chaos, and started to run away in panic. Luna was startled. She subconsciously shrank to the side, and a hand held her shoulder."Relax. Follow the crowd to the emergency exit in a minute, and watch your steps."Levian's deep voice calmed her. She looked up. Levian's eyes looked bright in the dim environment.She nodded
Luna cheered. She wanted to reply immediately, but she stopped before touching the screen."Will he know I’ve been waiting for him if I reply immediately? Maybe later," she murmured to herself.Only after a minute did she reply.Luna rolled around on the bed excitedly, looking at the chat interface of WhatsApp. She finally got Levian’s number after so many years!Suddenly, she saw him typing. She waited excitedly, resisting the urge to send him a message immediately. She wondered what he would say.'Hi, Luna.'Luna looked at the screen, and giggled.She typed and deleted her message several times before sending a simple greeting. 'Hi.'Levian smiled when he imagined her blushing face while reading her reply, then checked on her updates.Levian's friend, who was driving, asked suddenly, "Levian, will you join the race with Alvin's team?" His friend looked at Levian. He got confused when Levian didn’t reply, even after he waited for a long time. Noticing Levian staring at hi
On their way to the park, Luna and Levian chatted casually. Levian looked at Luna, smiling upon seeing her joyful emotion. She looked more relaxed than before.They strolled to the park.A young woman in slim-fitting sportswear was running on the trail, breathing evenly. Her ponytail was erected high and swaying as she moved. When she was about to turn into a corner, she narrowed her eyes and stopped.Luna and Levian weren’t far away, walking toward her. Melody was overjoyed. 'Way to go, Luna! A morning walk with Lev is a great idea.'She hid behind a rockery and watched them quietly.Luna and Levian were unaware of her presence. Levian couldn’t see her on her routine running route, and murmured, "Where did she go?"Melody was stunned when she heard that. They were there for her! She quickly took her phone, and turned it into silent mode.The next second, Levian called. Melody answered it."Mel, are you at the park now?" he asked.Melody lowered her voice and replied, "No, I
