Setlla got in the car. The soft scarf around her neck warmed her heart.
Before meeting Tracey, Setlla was selfabased and felt insignificant, like gravel being kicked over on the road.
It was Tracey who found her, picked her up, took her home, and remodeled her.
Thanks to Tracey, she led a new life, different from that of gravel in a corner.
David asked her to be his girlfriend. They shared similar backgrounds; what was more, she liked David. She would be thrilled for this first present from David for days.
In the lower right corner of the scarf, there was a cute elk image, which Setlla stroked over and over again. This Christmas Eve was the happiest one.
Looking at the happy face next to her, Lucy felt complicated and said coldly, "After all these years, he makes no progress in wooing a girl. I remember that David also gave me a scarf as a present when both of us were still freshmen."
Lucy didn't lie. Back then, David selected a scarf as a present for his supposed goddess, Lucy.
It was snowing that Christmas Eve. David told Lucy on the phone that he had a gift for her. A bottle of perfume from Chanel or Dior was what Lucy expected, as a bag of LV was beyond David's capability.
A bottle with 50ml in capacity cost only several hundred, not expensive.
With this thought in mind, Lucy ran downstairs excitedly. David was standing in the snow. Lucy felt disappointed after a glance at the shopping bag in David's hand.
Taking out the scarf, David expressed his wish that the scarf would keep Lucy warm in winter, and Lucy thanked him reluctantly.
"Do you like it?" There was some excitement in David's eyes.
Lucy said perfunctorily, "Yes." In fact, she was displeased, as her friends received gifts like jewelry, perfumes, coats and bags.
A scarf? Lucy could imagine the jeers from her friends! She felt bad, even aggrieved, 'Is David an idiot? Will he have a girlfriend with a scarf as a present?'
Lucy pretended to be happy as David was important to her schoolwork. Then David asked scrupulously, " Should I put it around your neck?"
Lucy took a step back subconsciously as an ugly scarf like this shouldn't land on her shoulder, "No. I would like to have it washed first. I will go back to the dorm right now."
"Okay, then see you." David was insensitive about how Lucy felt.
Lucy turned around with a smile. She dumped the scarf into the trash bin in the corridor upon her entry into the building.
What Lucy didn't know was that David saw everything. David would like to have a second glance at Lucy, so he turned his head when leaving.
He froze in the snow with an aching heart. Lucy smashed an innocent soul while dumping the scarf.
The snow was heavy that day, and David felt cold at heart. For the first time, David found that Lucy had two faces.
He once questioned himself about his own aesthetic, 'Maybe the scarf was too ugly, so Lucy dumped it.'
Until one day, he realized that his scarf was not ugly, and its fate resulted from its cheapness in price.
That day, he saw that Lucy, arms in arms with a middle-aged man, walked towards an Audi
