章 498: Relief

"Do you like it?"

"Yes, but-"

"Thank god, I've never made anything before, so I wasn't sure it would turn out well."

Did he make this for her? For a moment by, those words shock her. She figured it was handmade, but she thought somebody else made it on his behalf. To think he made it himself, and yet is he serious? Sumire is doubtful, but her gaze fell on his expression. 

The man standing before her is no doubt her first boyfriend, who hurt so much. He is the one who destroyed whatever hope she had in humans. But right now, that very same person is showing her the most sincere expression she has ever seen.

Her gaze fell on the bracelet and then back at him. "Thank you, San. I'll treasure it."

It was awkward for her to walk off after that. It suddenly felt wrong just to leave. But Sumire noticed the whispering and stares of the other staff members, so she had no choice but to leave quickly.
