Twisted Love's

Episode 16's

A clink rang out as Carlo flicked the coin with his finger, flipping it into the air.

Carlo took out a coin from the air and slowly opened his palm to reveal it.

In his hand, faintly shining in the light of a dim candle, the coin showed a tail.

Ah... Nolan won.

When the next weekend came, I found myself waiting for Nolan at the entrance of Lilac Court.

I never thought he would actually do it ...

And here I was waiting for Nolan who was picking up a bottle of wine left behind.

* * *

The night before, when I passed by the lounge, Nolan stopped me.

"We'll do it tomorrow." Nolan said flatly.

"Do what?" I'm confused.

"Bet Carlo, remember? Don't tell me you forgot ..." Nolan's eyes narrowed.

"A-What? Are you serious?" I said that Nolan glanced at me with dissatisfaction.

"In my job, I always keep my word. If you strongly oppose him, you can tell Miguel and Carlo that you have broken the contract." Nolan said annoyed.

Contract?! Really?! Since when has this become a big deal?!

"Allah ... Tomorrow huh?" I agreed to it despite my hesitation.

"We're leaving at ten o'clock in the morning. Wear something that makes you comfortable." Nolan said and left me.

* * *

So we finally did it...

But I wonder why he wants me to wear clothes that are easy for me to move around comfortably.

Shortly after, Nolan came in his car and got out.

"Lake in." He told me to blatantly, pull open the passenger door.

"Te-Thank you ..." I said.

I can't decide if he'll be nice or rude today...

Still, opening the door for me is a polite gesture...

Moments after I got into the car, Nolan started driving.

"Where are we going?" My toot.

"You'll see when we get there." He responded coldly.

Isn't this a date? At least he can pretend to enjoy it ...

"Will my clothes be okay?"

"I'm sure whatever you're wearing is fine." He declared without taking his eyes off the road.

"You didn't even look!" This time, he glanced at me for a moment.

"You'll be fine." He responded with annoyance.

This doesn't feel like a date.

I hope this whole day doesn't drag on like this?...

After driving for almost an hour, we arrived at a meadow full of horses.

"Well! It's so big here!" Excruciate.

Riders rose leisurely in the vast field and were surrounded by a wide variety of colorful horses.

Just being surrounded by animals and nature was enough to calm my heart.

It's so green and beautiful. L like it!

"Come on. We need to talk to the receptionist."

"Good!" While I was standing there in wonder, Nolan walked hastily without me.

Why is he always in such a hurry?

By the way, I think I better use this opportunity to get to know her more ...

"Do you like horses?" I rushed to his side and asked Nolan a question.

"If I hate them, why did I come here?" Said ketus.

"Yes too..." I was misbehaving.

I hope he's not so rude the whole time ...

"Are you trying to say you're not happy with my choice?" Ask Nolan.

"No, not at all! I like animals!" My solute.

"Then don't complain." Nolan said sourly.

"I'm not complaining ... I'm just surprised you like animals." I said.

"I don't really like it, but horses are the exception. Besides, doesn't it make sense to go somewhere we both like?" Nolan said indifferently.

"What's so funny?" He looked at me confused.

"Nothing." I said.

I still don't know if he's bad or good, but at least he's watching me!

“Don't laugh at yourself, it's creepy. Come on." Comeon." Nolan looked at me as if surprised before going to the clubhouse.

I followed behind him to the reception where the woman who worked there gave me some riding gear.

"Is this all for me? What about his stuff?" My toot.

"Mister Zarek's equipment is stored in his private locker." The woman at the reception

"Huh?" Excruciate.

Does he know his name? He even has a private locker?

Is Nolan a member here too?

At that time, Nolan came out of the member's dressing room, already using the full equipment.

So he's a true member! Wait, isn't that room reserved for VIPs?

"Wait for what else? Hurry up and get ready." Nolan.

"O-okay..." I balance one foot at a time to take off my shoes and wear boots.

But in doing so, I lost my balance and fell forward.

Nolan stepped forward to stop my fall and started rolling his eyes at me.

"Can't do it right?"

He knelt down in front of me and gently shifted the boots to my feet.

The touch of her gentle grip on my calf made me shiver.

This is so embarrassing ... I never thought he ended up helping me with shoes ...

"Te-Thank you." I said.

"What idiot tries to change his boots by standing up?" Ask irritatedly

Although his mouth was rough and shattered his moment.

When the two of us finished changing into riding gear, we left the clubhouse together.

"W-Wait a minute!" I left some of my stuff at the front desk and then rushed over to catch up with him.

"Where are you going? The riding area is there ..." I was confused to see Nolan turn the other way.

"Horse cage." He quickly went inside and stopped in front of a horse.

"Wow ... It's so pretty!" I glanced at his shiny black fur, enough to know that this horse was well loved and cared for.

The horse neighed and sneered happily at Nolan's hand.

Nolan gently stroked her face.

I've never seen Nolan act so soft and sweet before.

So he can make a face like that, at least with a horse ...

"It's mine." Nolan.

"Are you serious?!" His statement caught me completely off guard.

"Why should I lie?" Nolan.

"What's his name?" My toot.

"Dietmund." The horse let out a whining sound as if answering his name.

"What a beautiful name you have! It suits you well ..." Hearing the compliment, Dietmund turned to me and nudged my face to lick it.

"Hehe! It's ticklish!" I laugh.

"I know you're good with animals, it doesn't even surprise me." Nolan stared at my interaction with his horse.

"Since I was a kid, they've always been nice to me." My words.

"Not just animals, but children and humans as well, right? I'm sure you're being blocked by people all the time, asking for directions." Nolan said confidently.

"Huh? How do you know that?!" I'm appalled.

I mean, he's right!

"Who do you think I am? Just as you should know about animals for your work, I should also be able to judge people for my work. It's easy for me to tell what someone is like just by talking to them for a while." Nolan.

"That's it..." In my heart I was amazed at him.

He knows all about me easily, no wonder he's a good lawyer!

"Your horse is impressive. He was very muscular and his face was very symmetrical! And her eyes are so beautiful! I can say he only trusts you." I said.

"Yes, we've been together a long time. Sometimes it feels like Dietmund can see right through me. Even without understanding the words and everything ... Looks like he knows what I think, even more than anyone else can." Nolan stroked the jaw of his horse with a curious expression that crossed his face.

"The horse is clever. I'm sure they know what the owner thinks." I said.

Right at that moment, Dietmund neighed, as if understanding everything that was said.
