She nodded her head and smiled. "Yes. We were just classmates at first. After we got into a relationship, our parents kept rushing us to get married. So, we're getting ready to marry. I wanted to introduce him to you previously, but so many things have happened these days. I couldn't find a chance to tell you."
That was nice. Women who were in a relationship had love in their eyes, and their gazes would sparkle as well.
Indeed, many things had happened these days. I smiled and said, "I wish you happiness. We should eat together someday if we have time."
"Sure, Wanda. I'll leave first." Heidi looked so happy. She turned and left.
I looked at her back while feeling envious. How good i t was to be young, and how nice it must be to be in a relationship.
That was when the phone rang. It was Cecilia, who invited me to go shopping in the evening. She had been staying at home these days because of Tyler. It seemed that she was bored.
I hung up the call after I promised to meet her in the evening.
When I was about to read the documents, someone knocked on the door.
"Come in."
I did not think that it would be Mason, whom I had not seen in a while.
"Are you busy? Am I disturbing you?" he asked when h e saw me slightly startled.
"No. It's been a long time, Doctor Lynch. Please take a seat," I spoke immediately.
"Are you free tonight?” Mason sat down. His facial expression was as indifferent as usual.
"I have a shopping date with Cecilia. What’s the matter?" He would not have come here for nothing. He must have a reason.
He remained silent for a moment before speaking up," It's nothing. Theo asked me to bring you to the hospital for a check-up."
I subconsciously rejected him and replied with a cold expression, "My body's fine. I don't have to go to the hospital."
"Did both of you fight again?" he looked up and asked.
"Not really," I answered calmly. It could not be considered a fight since we were not in love with each other and there was nothing between us.
Mason did not ask anymore. Looking at me, he said," You look terrible. It must be because of your depression. You have to learn how to release your emotions, don't bottle them up inside."
