Chapter 2 Got on his love pirate ship
Later, he really didn’t come to see me until they were about to graduate.
I found that a new neighbor moved in across the hall.
That day was particularly unlucky for me. The project didn’t go well, I was scolded by my boss, and I sprained my foot on the way home.
Fortunately, my colleague Kevin passed by. Seeing me limping, he kindly drove me home and assisted me upstairs since I had difficulty walking.
As soon as we opened the elevator, I saw Roan standing at my doorstep.Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
He was still so handsome but had become more mature and reserved, no longer the green and inexperienced youth from before.
Our eyes met, and Roan’s gaze moved in a circle on the hand that Kevin was assisting me with. Then, his expression visibly darkened. He silently walked to the opposite door of my home and closed it with a loud “bang.”
I awkwardly chuckled a few times. It turned out that Roan was my new neighbor.
I didn’t dare ask him directly, so I quietly asked my younger brother about Roan’s recent situation.
My brother said, “Roan has already found an internship unit over there, it seems to be the JC Group. I remember you’re also with JC, right? Didn’t he tell you? Fi… Sis… hello…?”
I couldn’t hold my phone steady. What did Roan mean?
Moving next door to my place and specifically interning at my company?
It’s been so long since that incident; he still can’t let it go?
Dragging one leg, limping, I walked to the opposite door and knocked on the door, “Knock, knock, knock.”
“Roan! Come out!”
After a while, he leisurely opened the door, probably just finished bathing. He casually draped a bathrobe over himself, revealing a large expanse of wheat-colored skin. He looked down at me from a higher vantage point.
I felt a bit guilty and swallowed hard.
But thinking about him appearing in front of me every day from now on, reminding me of the mistake I made, I found some courage from somewhere and began to speak forcefully.
“Why did you move across from my place ? What’s the meaning of interning at my company? Just because I force you to sleep with me? After all these years, you still hold on to it. Fine, I’ll give it back to you!”
I closed my eyes, bracing myself.
He remained silent for a while, and when I sneakily glanced at him, he looked at me with a somewhat ambiguous expression, a playful look.
I wanted to say more, but suddenly, a woman walked out from inside, wearing a face mask and pajamas. She asked him, “Ro, who’s this?”
I felt like I had been struck by lightning, stunned on the spot.
There was a surge of something in my heart, fleeting and tinged with bitterness.
I hadn’t expected him to already be living with a girlfriend, and I felt like a clown, truly delusional.
“Sorry… I walked into the wrong place…”
I lowered my head, quickly dragging my injured leg away from the scene.
