Kapitel 100: Chapter 100: Can A Hope Lost Twice, Rekindle for A Third?

Under the starry sky, two figures held each other's hand as they stared at each other. Rio opened his mouth, deciding to break the silence. He lowered his head, muttering:

"I'm sorry for hearing that..."

Samantha suddenly raised her hand, putting it above Rio's lips. She chuckled as she replied:

"Don't be. It was a long time ago. The emotions and sorrow from back then had long disappeared."

Rio felt her finger tap on his lips. He tilted his head, confused. He shifted his gaze to Samantha. Samantha... in turn, realized what she had done and quickly withdrew her finger as she heavily blushed.

Rio narrowed his eyes, shaking his head. He paused for a while before asking:

"...Do you love teaching?"

It was an odd question—but that was one of the things that stuck to him at her story the most. He originally had thought Samantha merely forced herself to teach to forget about everything in her past.
