Tears kept rolling in my eyes. I tried hard not to let them fall, feeling that this was my bottom line and stubbornness.
Harrison seemed to feel that someone was looking at him. He slightly tilted his head and our eyes met. They were neither too close nor too far away. We just looked at each other and did not move.
The sadness in my heart rose to another level again, and I almost couldn't hold back my urge to cry. My tears were flowing, and as he turned around without hesitation, I finally fell down.
Yes, but when he saw me, he pretended to ignore me.
"Now do you understand what I just said?" Louie, who was behind him, asked.
Realizing the existence of Louie, I wiped my tears in a panic and forced a smile at him as if nothing had happened. "What are you talking about? Did I see it?"
"Why do you have to put yourself in a disadvantageous position?" Louie looked at me in confusion. "You are obviously a very good woman. Why must you be entangled with Harrison if you can meet a better man? I don't believe that you didn't see it just now. How on earth did you not see through Abbie?"
His words had basically defeated me. I had no room to refute, so I could only stand where I was and listen to him.
In fact, I knew very well that Louie was right. If I leave here with Harrison and find a man of the same stage as me, I will have a good chance to meet a good man. Although I can't say that I am rich, I won't sleep on the street.
It was a pity that everything had been messed up the moment I met Harrison. At this moment, I had completely fallen into a state where I would never turn back. Even if I saw him standing side by side with Abbie and even holding her shoulder, I would still believe that it was just a misunderstanding.
I don't know. If I'm not in the room, it might be a misunderstanding, right?
I comforted myself in my heart and persuaded myself over and over again. I didn't know the situation and couldn't guess, so I made up my mind.
After listening to me, Louie did not speak for a long time. Just when I thought he had left, he came to me again. The position where he stood could block the glass so that I could not see what was happening in the room.
Looking at him, I laughed at myself. "What? Do you think I'm so useless? Or do I have no bottom line?"
He didn't say anything and just looked at me.
But that didn’t mean that I didn't understand what it meant. In Louie's heart, he should be surprised. He didn't expect that I would say it directly. But there was no other way. I just hated to put on an act.
"No one has ever been hostile to you, and I will never hurt you, so you don't have to pretend to be strong in front of me."
Louie's words made me slightly stunned, but soon I smiled. "I didn't pretend to be strong. I understand that there will be no heartache in the world for no reason, so I also know your feelings for me."
"The reason why I don't want to tell you is that I don’t want to lose a friend like you. From the class all the way to the help you gave me, others can't be replaced casually."
He interrupted me. "Then you..."
"This is just a definition of the relationship between friends. It's not like there will be any progress between us. Without Harrison's existence, maybe we will have different results. But similarly, we may not meet without Harrison, right?" Speaking of this, I sighed with emotion in my heart.
At the end of the day, God was fair. If he let you meet all kinds of people, you will face different results. There is no right or wrong in love, only time is right.
