Chapter 138: Chapter 138 – Break up

Right when he was about to set foot on the main street, he heard the girl's soft voice again.

"Wait."

He turned back toward her and she looked at him for a second before dropping her head. Thinking that she might be having a mix of complex feelings right now, he didn't answer and slowly came closer to her position to sit on the ground a few meters apart from her. She gave him another look but stayed silent otherwise. He decided to wait patiently until she got her feelings under control and sat there, without looking at her and without making any noise.

A few minutes later, she used her sleeves to wipe her tears and glanced at him.

"What you said about your sister, is it true?"

"Yes."

"Why was she sad?"

"She was getting bullied at school."

She nodded at his response and stayed quiet for another couple of minutes. Eventually, she opened her mouth again.

"My parents divorced five months ago."

"Thank you for listening to me and comforting me, um..."

"Benjamin."

"Thank you, Benjamin."

"You're welcome. What's your name?"

"I'm Alena."

"Alena, are you feeling any better?"

"Yes. You were right, it was good to unwind."

He smiled at her and concluded.

"That's great."

Seeing his smile, she couldn't help having her heart miss a beat, her cheeks suddenly warming up. She finally realized what sort of situation she was in. She was in the arms of this angel-like guy, who had comforted her for a long time even though he didn't know her at all. She wondered if this was what having a big brother would feel like. She only had a big sister, who wasn't even that nice to her, so she didn't know. She remembered hearing her friends who had big brothers saying that they weren't that nice either, often looking down on and not wanting to associate with them. What this guy some sort of rare sweet boy, the kind you would only see on TV series and movies, like those princes waiting to be rescued by the heroine? Before going out with Lyle, she often dreamed of having a boyfriend like that, someone that would dote on her and indulge her as only fictional boys could do.

Her heart started to beat faster and faster as her thought process continued. She wondered if this might be some sort of fortune in misfortune to meet someone like him here. What's more, his chest was right in front of her head. She swallowed her saliva, getting sad at the fact that her nose was still stuffy from crying and that she couldn't enjoy his smell. No doubt it would be amazingly nice and sweet.

She had never gotten so close to a boy before, not even her boyfriend, who had only been alright with holding hands up until the end. She discretely tried to lower her head so that her face would enter in contact with his chest. Somehow, she was successful and couldn't help feeling hot when feeling his toned chest against her nose and cheek. Her glasses were a bit in the way but she still tried to slowly rub herself on him, wanting to get more of that feeling, forgetting herself a little in her excitation.
