Chapter 161: Aimless
Numb. My entire body felt numb.
Christian’s silence cut me deeper than I expected. I finally confessed my feelings for him, but they were met with complete silence.
I can’t work here. At least not today.
I didn’t know where I was headed, but I found myself standing outside, looking around aimlessly. There was no way I could call the driver and go back home; rather, I didn’t want to go home.
The streets were full of life. Everyone was out and about, going about their business. I quietly looked around, observing the people around me.
Some people weaved through the crowded streets, running as if they were late for work, while others leisurely took a stroll as they sipped on their coffees.
Coffee. Maybe I can go visit that coffee shop again?
There was nowhere else I could go. I wasn’t meeting with Lucas until after five, and it was still early morning. Without finding anything else to do, I started walking in the direction of the coffee shop.
Since it was relatively close, I arrived there after a few minutes, but was quick to see that the line was out the door.
