Natalie's heart seemed like being hollowed out.
Even then, it was not bleeding.
She did not have to calm down anymore.
She walked out of the Agaphen University.
She took a bus.
She did not know where she should go, she only thought that she should roam around.
Along the way, Natalie suddenly saw a luxurious car outside the window.
A woman was sitting inside the luxury car.
She looked elegant and had delicate makeup on her face.
Natalie blinked.
The luxurious car was only suitable for a rich woman like her.
Natalie was only a woman that could take a bus.
What kind of fantasies was she having?
She was a woman at the bottom of society.
What was she thinking?
Natalie laughed suddenly.
Some nearby passengers noticed her.
Natalie was laughing, but her laugh was worse than crying.
A middle- aged woman handed Natalie a tissue and said, "Little girl, if you feel sad, just let it all out. Once you cry, you will be just fine. Don't try to hold it in."
Natalie took the tissue and looked at her.
After a while, she said, "Thank you."
She looked at the white tissue and wanted to cry. But no tears were coming out.
The bus drove all the way. When it was finally the woman's turn to get off the bus, she patted Natalie on the shoulder and said, "Little girl, you are still young, the sadness you feel will go away soon."
Natalie did not say anything.
Would it really be over soon?
Everything between her and Tobias would be in the past.
She would not think of that man anymore.
She would no longer feel pain anymore.
In future, she might see Tobias and Winnie appearing in front of her.
When she did, she would only say that they look good and were a match for each other.
The sadness in Natalie's eyes grew heavier.
Natalie got off the bus at the next stop.
She did not know where she was at, she just walked automatically.
After she got off the bus, Natalie saw a sign which stated 'bay'.
It was a bay of the Agaphen City. Many people liked to go there for sea view and shells.
Natalie walked toward it.
Soon, she saw the vast blue sea where there was no end in sight.
Natalie stepped onto the beach.
She walked toward closer to the sea. The water was cold.
Natalie suddenly wanted to be cooler.
She took small steps forward.
The water slowly soaked her body as she walked forward.
Some people noticed something was weird. They whispered, but no one dared to step forward.
After all, there were too many scammers in the Agaphen City.
Many people who tried to step forward in the name of justice were slandered.
Back then, a man in the Agaphen University sent an old women to the hospital after she was knocked down by a truck. However, the old woman said that the man was the one who knocked her down. In the end, he even had to compensate her a large sum of money.
Which was why no one in the Agaphen City did good deeds anymore.
"Jack, what do you think that woman is doing? Why is she walking toward the sea?" Wendy suddenly asked Jack.
She asked Jack to bring her out that day to play at the beach. As she was picking up some seashells, she realized that lots of people were looking toward the sea. She looked over and realized that a woman was walking toward it.
Jack looked over and he saw a woman walking into the sea too.
Many people committed suicide there.
Jack wanted to rush over immediately.
Wendy grabbed Jack's hand tightly, "Jack, don't poke your nose into other people's business. Look, there are so many people here who don't care. What if you are being framed later?"
Jack withdrew his hand from Wendy's and said, "I would rather be framed than look and do nothing!"
