บท 333: I'm here for you now

Anne looked at Merek questioningly, mistaken. That didn't make any sense, did she just hear him say...

As the thought deepened, Anne's eyes began to tremble, something was wrong. It sounded like he had feelings for her. But it couldn't be. Merek never tried to contact her nor come to see her in Zari ever since she left Findara, he was distant from her.

'wait, was he really distant at all?'

During dinner, he'd mentioned dishes from the past and afterwards he gave her his coat without hesitation.

Even now...

He had come back for her. Anne frowned as she laid out today's events in her mind.

Merek looked at her confused of her sudden reaction, he then asked, "How should I interprete that look on your face?"

Anne glanced up at him, "Merek, you don't like me. Don't... don't confuse me with your words even more. Do you have any idea how hard it is to have hope and then have it shattered into pieces?" She asked.
