Although Steve used to have close contact with Thirza in front of everyone, that was when Steve had nothing to feel guilty about.
But now he had a secret deep down in his heart that he didn't even dare to look Tracey in the eyes.
"Thirza, don't hold my hand in front of others."
"There is no one here, what are you afraid of?"
"Of course, you couldn't care less about it." Steve felt a little helpless. Perhaps he was older than Thirza, so he had more things to think about.
"Steve, there are so many flowers here, they are so beautiful." Thirza picked up a bunch of osmanthuses and put them under her nose to smell.
Yet Steve only felt that Thriza was way much more beautiful than all the flowers in the world.
"Steve, why are you looking at me like that?"
Only then did Steve come to his senses. He actually looked at her for a long time.
"No, nothing."
Thirza now was like a budding flower. In a few years, she would definitely be a delicate and beautiful flower.
He was looking forward to it, but at the same time, he was also a little emotional. Did he and Thirza really have a future?
Thirza was just a little girl and they could remain in this kind of a relationship. What about later?
"Steve, worrying about the future again? You are like my grandpa when you think about those things."
Thirza could tell what Steve was thinking about just simply by looking at his furrowed brows.
Steve did not know what to say to her, so he could only force a smile.
"Steve, no one can predict what will happen in the future. Like I said, let's just go back to the way we used to be. You don't have to have any burden."
"You wouldn't want my mom and dad to be suspicious about us, would you? But the way you behave in front of them is the first and foremost thing that's gonna sell you out."
Steve sighed and said, "Is it that obvious?"
"It's more than obvious. It's almost written on your face."
Thirza smiled and stood on her toes. She put her arms around Steve's neck and said, "Steve, just relax. Everything will be fine. Carpe diem, alright?"
"Thirza."
"I love you, Steve. I won't let you go for the rest of my life."
Immersed in the astoundingly beautiful scenery around them, Thirza stood on her tips and kissed Steve's lips.
Different from the kiss under the shower last time, he could clearly feel the temperature of Thirza's red lips.
There was only one feeling in his mind, they were so soft, her lips were so soft.
Steve was stunned by her clumsy and serious kiss on his lips. He forgot to think, and he forgot to refuse.
Steve did not come to his senses until Thirza let go of him. "Thirza, you said we would go back to the way things were, how could you have kissed me?"
"But I still did, didn't I? Don't worry about it." Thirza didn't care at all.
Steve had no way to deal with her. No one could ever change her idea ever if she had made up her mind.
"Let's go, Steve. Let's go over there and have a look." Thirza pulled him to the forest as if nothing had happened.
Steve held her hand, wishing that things could stay like this forever.
However, the difficulty lying ahead of them was almost like an insurmountable peak.
Since returning home, Steve had always had a gloomy expression on his face and deliberately keeping his distance from Serena when there were people around.
