"What does that mean if I'm pathetic? Did Aunty see me like that too?" Diana looked at Jared.
"I don't know."
Diana's face immediately turned moody and Jared hated seeing Diana like that. "Damn, I think I'm wrong."
"Forgot my words earlier. You're not pathetic at all. I care about you because your life story is similar to mommy's. My grandfather killed people and it was like the biggest blow to mommy. Although mommy always smiles in front of us, but I also often see mommy secretly crying behind us.
Daddy managed to catch Grandpa's killer, but we kept it a secret from mommy. Because we know, mommy would be saddened if she knew the reason the killer killed Grandpa. He said just so he could get mommy back to town soon. A very silly reason. My grandfather died at the hands of a madman."
"I'm sad, too" said Diana.
"That's long gone. I just want you to get up and not stay down too long. If you want I'll help you catch the killer."
Diana looked more deeply at the man, and Jared did the same thing as they stared at each other for a long time.
"What if I don't want to catch the killer? I'm afraid the reality I'm receiving will further ruin my life."
"Then you'll keep hiding in fear? Don't you want to give Felly a normal life?"
Jared knew that the girl wasn't really okay. He was trying to look tough when in fact he was fragile.
Diana is silent, to be honest after losing her family, the thing she fears the most is losing Felly.
"Be strong, not for yourself, but for your brother."
"Can I hold you?" shrewd Diana. Without saying much, Jared pulled Diana's body to a sitting and then he hugged the fragile body.
"Thankyou, I'll think about your offer. I hope you don't change" Diana said in Jared's arms.
"You can come to me whenever you're ready. Do you want to sleep in my arms too?" jared asked jokingly.
"Ck .. You're such a bitch, sir. Sorry if I made you fall."
"It was just a coincidence. Next time I won't let you take me down."
They finally decided to leave. Diana looked like normal again. However, Jared did not take his eyes off Diana at all. He hoped the girl would be like this next. She liked Diana more like this.
"We buy sports clothes before we go home."
"It's not okay, Jared."
Diana remained silent. He threw away his gaze. As the night progressed, lights began to decorate every street they passed. Jared stopped his car at a shopping mall. Diana gets down and so does Jared. The man unhappily clasped Diana's hand.
"Don't get lost."
"Originally you know I used to work in one of these shops here. So I can't possibly get lost" Diana said with a smile.
"If so I'm afraid of getting lost" said Jared still by holding Diana's hand. Diana shook her head with Jared's reply. Jared took Diana to the shop where she worked. He hesitated a little to get in.
"Tu_sir why are we here?"
"Purchase Celine's hand. You helped me choose her."
"Ta_but .... "
"Good night sir, can I help you."
Diana hid her body behind Jared. He knows that voice.
"I want to take a look."
"Please sir. Maybe your lover wants to choose for himself" the saleswoman pointed to Diana. The woman did not know yet if the one who was appointed was the girl she hated so much.
"Diana, you choose." Jared pulled Diana's hand until Diana stood parallel to Jared.
"Miana .... " The woman widened her eyes.
"Hi, Matilda." Diana tried to act ordinary, even though in her heart she did not like the current situation.
"Choose some. Adjust to your feet."
"Adjust to my feet?" diana asked confusedly.
"Yes, follow my orders. Try some shoes and choose 2 sports shoes."
"All right, coercive master."
