'' he asked.She lets go of him when he asked that. '' Shall we talk while we cook? Help me out '' she said walking over to the kitchen. '' Sure,'' he said.

'' Cause you need to make her that mad or else she won't be able to understand your true purpose. She will only treat you as her lucky charm and nothing else. You will also be in a relationship where you will never be happy. Do you just want her to use you and throw you away like nothing ?''Christina's words were piercing his skin like a needle.
