"The night sky is gorgeous. It would be nice if we could sit while admiring the view."
After saying that, she dragged Shannon with her to grab the cushions. Jordan and Thaddea's fiance went too. With the two men going over as well, it was possible to carry everything.
Holly came close to me and asked in a hushed voice, "Don't you feel awkward?"
I looked up at her, feeling a little puzzled." Why should I feel awkward?"
Holly cleared her throat. "Your ex-husband and his girlfriend are in front of you. It's hard to believe that you don't care."
I pursed my lips and looked up at the stars i n the sky, saying with a smile, "I think the beautiful moon and stars are more worthy o f our attention than gossip."
Seeing that I did not want to talk about this, her mouth twitched and she did not ask any more questions.
When Shannon and the rest brought the cushions over, everyone sat down and admired the night view.
Thaddea and her fiance, Jordan and Shannon, Theo and Elena. There were six people and three couples. The remaining ones were me, Nina, and Holly. All we could do was huddle together for warmth.
The cushion was huge, and one could lay o n it. When I was tired from sitting, I lay down.
Holly lay beside me to talk to me.
As we spoke, she suddenly put on an astonished expression. I subconsciously turned back to take a look.
