Louie's smile always warmed people's hearts. It was also because of this that I was willing to make friends with him. He was like a big brother next door, who gave me a sense of security and let me know that I was not the only one in the world.
I once doubted the embarrassing situation when I first met him, but when I got to know him slowly, I found that he was different from what I was worried about. At least he didn't force me to do anything that I didn't like.
Speaking of whether there was a so-called pure friendship between men and women, or whether there was a confidante between men and women, according to my thoughts, it was just that I didn't believe it when I didn't know Louie. But because I knew him, I gradually accepted it.
But now he and Harrison asked me to choose one out of two. In my opinion, it's so difficult to make a choice.
It was not because I had a different idea about Louie in such a short time. I just felt that this friend was precious. In addition to Sienna, he could probably be regarded as a good friend to me.
After so many things, I really realized the importance of friends. If I don't have friends in the future, I really can't imagine how I can solve it if something happens.
Louie, you don't have to be so nice to me. After thinking about it for a while, I finally said it.
I was very sure that there was a flash of change in Louie's face, but because his speed was so fast that I couldn't see it clearly, the room suddenly became awkward.
I didn't know how to continue. I just stood there in a daze and didn't know what to do.
But Louie was different from what I thought. He put down the bag in his hand and said softly, "I heard that you are sick, so I should care about you as a friend."
"This is work hours. Are you out for work?" I asked.
"It's okay. I've done all I need to do today."
Looking at Louie's calm tone, I opened my mouth and closed it again.
Originally, when I was working, I wanted him to retreat from difficulties. However, not only did Louie retreat from difficulties, but he also stopped me with a sentence.
It was probably because I would not reject the kindness of others, which was why both of them were in such an awkward situation. "I'm fine, Louie, so you can go back now. I may be able to go to work tomorrow after a good rest."
Instead of answering me, he pointed behind me with his finger and looked at me in confusion.
I subconsciously looked back and saw a pair of bloody handprints. All the memories of last night flooded into my mind. Callen's behavior and Harrison's dissatisfaction with me.
Louie, who was sitting quietly on the opposite side, was obviously waiting for my answer. My original intention of hiding it was destroyed in an instant. I sighed and said, "It doesn't matter if I tell you. Something happened last night. The handprint on it is not mine, but someone else's."
"What's the matter?" he asked.
The tone of questioning made me a little resistant, but I clearly understood that he was also concerned about me. So I suppressed the discomfort in my heart and explained, "I can't tell you the details. Anyway, you don't have to worry about the past."
"But I can see that there's a mark on your wrist."
Louie's words woke me up in an instant. I lowered my head and happened to see the position of my wrist. The more I tied it with the belt last night, the more strength I used. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been unable to hold on for a whole night. My heart became more agitated because of this mark.
He felt irritated, but he seemed to be impatient.
