“I don’t know.”
“I think you’re from Idelberg.”
The man’s face brightened.
“Meeting you is a blessing from heaven.”
“… Don’t like it too much.”
Helen’s face flushed with embarrassment at his words.
How could a man make a joke so sweetly? He was not aware of it.
Does he know that people don’t usually say this kind of thing?
Helen pretended to be unconcerned and brought the book over to the bookshelf.
Meanwhile, she waited for her face to cool down.
The man couldn’t stand the short time and followed Helen around.
“Wait. I’ll be right there.”
The man stood still.
He was obedient like a big puppy.
“Should I write down some words for you then?”
Helen said as she came back after putting the book back into place.
“!”
The man chuckled in surprise.
“That’s a great idea.”
“Do you have anything to write?”
“You have your thoughts. I thought you had a pen.”
“No, I don’t have one at the moment.”
Immediately the man wilted. It wasn’t that he didn’t have any.
Helen hastily cut him off.
“I have it at my place, I’ll bring it tomorrow.”
“Okay. Tomorrow.”
The man slurred, as if he was making a promise.
Helen chuckled at the sight.
She thought he was scary, but in a day she saw so many unusual sides of him.
At that moment, a bright light shone through the window.
“I’m going home now.”
“Already?”
“The sun will be up soon. It’s a secret that I came here too.”
“Of course.”
The man looked down sadly as if he was disappointed.
Helen couldn’t move her feet.
She felt uncomfortable leaving the man here alone.
“I will come back tomorrow.”
The man followed Helen to the door.
When Helen opened the door, the man was heartbroken.
If she walked out that door, there was no way for him to go get her back.
Suddenly his hand tightened.
“I’ll get going now.”
Helen didn’t expect the man to even walk her to the door.
It was barely ten steps. But here he was seeing her off.
“I’ll be waiting for you.”
