Chapter Thirty-One

Leron Angelo's POV

When the concert ended, many laughed and cried. Laugh because it is so much fun, cry because the concert is finally over. And I can't blame them, because I also felt the same.

I was also crying, not just because the concert had already ended. But the fact that Declan no longer looked my way even once after that. And I thought that maybe I was just hallucinating earlier, that maybe he never really met my eyes...

Even so, it's so hard when you're really hoping for something, but in the end, the answer becomes the opposite of your expectations.

I cried while walking outside the arena. I cried when we were already on the bus. And I cried alone when I arrived at my apartment. 

I even cried this morning. That's why I didn't get shocked anymore once I saw my own eyes were all red and puffy.

I sniffed and that made Arson glance at me. He's currently driving me towards the firm where I worked. This is what we have been doing since we started working. We would always meet there at that diner every morning to have breakfast together, and then he would take me to where I worked afterwards. Because his office area is exactly beyond where I work. Oh by the way, Arson's a prosecutor. Yes, despite of his attitude, he's a good prosecutor. 

”Are you still crying?” He eventually asked. I lick my lower lip and sigh before shaking my head as an answer.

I already told him everything that happened at the concert while we were both having breakfast earlier. Surprisingly, he just listened to me without saying anything. He did not even say any comforting words. Maybe because he's already aware that none of those will affect me at that time. 

“Yeah, you shouldn't. You already look like you've been abused.” As much as I wanted to counter his rude remark, I don't seem to have the energy to do that at the moment. Plus, we're already in front of the firm. I also felt like I needed to overwork myself today to forget some things.

“Thanks for the ride. Be careful.” I said to him after he stopped the car just in front of the company. He just nodded his head, and before he left, he opened the window of his car first, therefore I waited for his words.

“Don't think too much Angel. He still loves you.” He winked at me with a wide grin on his face. My eyebrows perked up, but I didn't say anything and just watched him drive away. 

I sigh and smile a little.

I hope so.

The guard greeted me immediately once he saw me. He was even a little shocked when he saw my face. Maybe he's wondering what happened to me because my eyes are puffy like this.

I just smiled at him and kept my head low after that. I don't want anyone to see me like this anymore. It'd be better if I could just use a shade, but that's not suitable for me, who's work is as an architect. 

Maybe I'll just give them the reason: "I watched a tragic movie." If ever they ask about my eyes.

The saddest and most tragic one, at that. 

When I arrived on the second floor, where I was stationed, I was no longer surprised to be greeted. The people in here are always full of energy. And just as I expected, someone immediately asked what had happened to my puffy and red eyes.
