My Pretty Sweetheart novel Chapter 1047

I blinked, bewildered. I had been so focused on my intentions that I forgot to look at my situation differently. I never thought about getting along with him as friends. I only expected to part as strangers.

Seeing that I was lost in thought, Naomi gave me a nudge. "Arianna, have you ever thought about it? Perhaps it's you who is overthinking the problem.
