It simply couldn't be anyone else.
"Why?"
Dorothy gazed into his eyes, which were deep and clear and untainted by any falsehood. She knew he hadn't lied.
But why?
What about her was worth this?
"There's no why. I don't have an answer as well."
If he did, he wouldn't have been stuck and standing still for years.
Dorothy could feel that Everett wanted to throw the question back at her. But he didn't dare.
He was scared the answer wouldn't be the one he wanted.
The topic was too heavy; Dorothy didn't want to delve any deeper.
She looked down to find her phone and noticed an unread WhatsApp message.
It was from Karen.
Upon opening it, a photo of a guy popped up.
Everett, sitting beside her, caught a glimpse and immediately furrowed his brows, "What's she doing, sending you pictures of guys?"
Dorothy sighed, showing him the message thread on her phone, "Don't jump to conclusions, okay? She's asking if I think he's handsome. She's planning to go on a blind date with him."
"She's going on a blind date?"
"Yeah." Dorothy nodded, taking a closer look at the guy in the photo.
He was quite the looker, seemingly around Karen's age. Not drop-dead gorgeous, but definitely above average.
