In front of Laura, there was a lot of delicious food. Although she didn't know all of these foods, she was sure they were all delicious. Laura had never imagined what it would be like to have the food explore her mouth, and have her tongue savor the flavors. Ah, just imagining it almost made her drool.

Justin took her to eat at a fancy restaurant, he also ordered her a lot of food. She wanted to eat all that tantalizing food right now. But, she still had shame. She was embarrassed to be eating while he wasn't.

When Justin's eyes met Laura's, she immediately understood. Justin picked up his fork and started eating.

Justin looked at Laura for a moment. "Eat." he said briefly.

Laura nodded slowly and ate the food. In her heart, she cheered that she could taste the food now. As the first spoon went into her mouth, Laura widened her eyes. It was so delicious! It would be a shame if she didn't finish it.

Justin chuckled softly at the way Laura ate so quickly that she left sauce around her lips. Justin took a tissue and gently wiped her lips. Suddenly, the treatment succeeded in making Laura stand still with her gaze directed at Justin. When their gazes met, they were silent for a long time until Laura finally pulled out the tissue and wiped her own lips.

"Te... thank you," Laura said nervously. She was so wronged by the man.

Justin smiled. "Eat slowly, look at the mess in your mouth."

Laura grinned and continued eating. After they had finished eating and felt full, Justin asked for the bill and paid.

"We're going home now." Justin said.

Laura just nodded obediently and followed him.

The sound of splashing water came from the bathroom. Laura was cleaning her body after coming home. She took a shower, humming a little as she enjoyed the warm water pouring over her body.

Laura came out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around her body. She picked up her clothes on the bed to put them on. But she squealed as soon as she saw the man in front of her. Because of the dark lights, she couldn't see who it was. Laura tightened the towel wrapped around her body and walked backwards while pointing at the man.

Who are you?"

The man took one step closer to the light. Laura immediately widened her eyes to see who it was...

"Justin?! Since when have you been here?" she screeched.

"Since you were singing in the shower." he replied lightly. Meanwhile Laura was already feeling very embarrassed!

Justin heard her singing in the bathroom?! God, she was so embarrassed! Laura wanted to disappear from there immediately.

"Ah yes, if only you had taken off that towel, I would have enjoyed the view before me so much." said Justin in a teasing tone.

"JUSTIN!!!" cried Laura with an annoyed and embarrassed face.

Instead of feeling guilty, Justin laughed. He loved seeing Laura's upset and embarrassed face. Justin chose to continue his act of making Laura upset. According to him, it was a lot of fun.

"Or do you just open it now? Hm... sounds like fun." Justin winked and flashed his mischievous smile.

Laura was sure her face was bright red by now. Justin really embarrassed her to no end. He was so annoying when he started teasing her or teasing her with his vulgar words. She wanted to leave right then and there.

"Alright, alright. Hurry up and put your clothes on now!" Justin ordered.

"Or do you want me to put them on?" Justin teased again.

Laura quickly shook her head and ran into the bathroom. Ah, that guy managed to embarrass her so much.

Laura put on her clothes and came out of the bathroom. He was still there, not out of his room at all but lying on his bed with his bent legs hanging down. Laura sighed and approached Justin. Laura shook the man's body.

"Justin, move aside, I want to sleep!" she ordered.

"Hm," Justin mumbled but didn't move from his spot at all. Laura looked at the clock on the wall that showed it was nine o'clock at night. It wasn't too late, so Laura decided to leave the room.

Her feet walked towards the backyard. She wanted to see the beautiful swimming pool. Although she was a little traumatized by the pool, there was no denying that she wanted to see the beautiful pool.

Laura stood at the edge of the pool, hugging her shoulders as the strong wind chilled her to the bone. Laura took a slow breath and then exhaled. She was still unsure whether she should go to their wedding or not. She was still afraid to face the reality. Is she strong enough or not? She definitely won't be able to face them.

No, no, no Laura! You can do it! Remember Justin's words! You can do it! Laura's mind chanted.

Laura closed her eyes for a long time. Enjoying the cold wind that hit her body even though she was cold. She always hesitated, even though she had decided to come but she always hesitated. What should she do? To come or not to come?

There were two options in her mind. The first choice, she came and showed them that she was not weak, but strong. The second option was not to come and let them think of her as weak and think she could not accept reality. Then he would casually get hurt again. It was obvious that she chose the first option, but doubts always surrounded her.

"Laura."

called her name softly. Laura then looked back and saw Justin standing there with a slightly... worried look?

"Oh my God Laura! I looked everywhere for you, and here you are. You know what? I thought you were going to drown again." Justin said as he stepped closer to Laura.

Laura smiled slightly. "I'm sorry Justin, I just wanted to enjoy the evening breeze."

"You're lying again Laura," Justin moved closer so that the distance between them was only a few centimeters. "Enjoying the night breeze or doubting something?"

"Ba..how do you know?" Laura was quite surprised to hear the man's words.

"I can clearly see the doubt in your eyes Laura. What are you doubting hmm?" Justin asked softly.

"I... don't know Justin, I'm not sure if I should go there or not. I always hesitate, I'm afraid I won't-"

"Pstt..." Justin placed his index finger on Laura's cheek. Then his hand cupped Laura's face gently.

"Listen to me okay? You can handle it Laura, just remember that you're not alone. There's me Laura, I'll always be there for you." Justin said.

For some reason, Laura had tears in her eyes. She was touched by Justin's words that really touched her heart. Laura immediately hugged Justin while crying. The gesture surprised Justin, but he immediately smiled and returned Laura's hug.
