When Mary left the city, she passed the main gym, where Victor was holding a meet and greet.
There were a ton of people and vehicles parked in front, and the gate was thronged with fans who couldn't get in. He was a star in the spotlight.
From where she sat on the bus, Mary couldn't see Victor. But she could see a poster of him which engulfed the entire wall.
"It's Victor!" The person in the seat behind Mary was loud. "He is so hot! I wish I didn't have class today. Otherwise I'd be there too!"
"I know, right? He's so handsome! It should be illegal to be that gorgeous!"
"Oh, my God! I love him so much! I'll see him next time if I get the chance!"
"Maybe, but I'll be the lucky fan who kisses him!"
"Really?" The girl in the back seat suddenly exclaimed, "Oh my God! That would be so messed up. My prince charming! If he kissed me, I'd die happy!"

'Do we have to be like this? We always fight every time we talk. Can't we just talk like normal people?'
Mary lost her appetite and started to bring the dirty dishes to the kitchen.
When she walked in, she saw the mess. Vegetables, water stains, eggshells, maybe...
Mary touched the gas stove and found the residual temperature.
'Why didn't you tell me? Ugh!
William, is it good or bad that I fell for you like this?
I should resign and leave!' Mary made a decision in her heart that she would leave when the contract was over and she would stay away from William—forever.
