Mr. Waltson, Refrain Yourself

Nicky Enderson could tell she was upset because she was being so difficult.

It was pointless for him to say anything until she had calmed down.

He could only stand there and watch her walk into the school, sighing.

Luna had been sedentary all day.

Aven Harris discovered she had entered the school with a walking stick. At midday, he scoured the entire campus for her, eventually finding her reading a book on the edge of the stone stairs near the school field.

Aven Harris had the impression she had seen the Luna of the past from a distance.

They had agreed to meet certain days, and she would always arrive early , studying and waiting for him.

When he saw her, he would always cook her favorite delicacies and run to her.

He took a breather after jogging and walked gently to her, where he sat across from her.

She looked up at him as she heard the noise.

He grimaced as he examined her ankle. “How could you have been so careless?”

He tried to reach out and touch her foot, but she shifted her leg away instinctively.

“Luna Greenwich , let’s make up, alright, huh? I don’t want to go on like this; without you, my life has become a stagnant pool of water. Let’s get married, yes? I vow, I will never betray you again. I will treat you well.”

She stayed silent for a long time as she gazed into his extremely emotional and mournful eyes.

Aven Harris leaned forward and kneeled in front of her, holding her hands.

“Luna, don’t give up; you said I took 99 steps towards you, so the final step will be taken by you; now, I am willing to start all over; all you have to do is remain still and let me walk all 100 steps, okay?”

“You slept with another man,” she said casually.

“Don’t irritate me like that, Luna. I know you wouldn’t.”

“It’s true. I slept with another man on the day I caught you two,” she laughed. “Although I regret using such a method to exact revenge on you, I feel fortunate at this moment because I did not leave any way for myself to return to your side, so no matter how pitiful your behavior is, I will not be able to turn my head back.”

Aven Harris clenched her teeth and said, “Luna Greenwich .””You should not do that.”

“Aven Harris, ex-couples can’t be friends, so I’m not bothering you, and I hope you’re not bothering me anymore; let’s retain our dignity; it’s better to be a stranger than an enemy, right?”

“You…” Aven Harris’ eyes were filled with suspicion.

He didn’t believe she’d do it.

Her expression, however, did not suggest that she was lying.

Aven Harris stepped up and asked, “Did you sleep with someone else?”

“Yes,” she said, tensing her grip on the book.

“I’ve been with you for so long, and you won’t even let me kiss you, but you end up sleeping with another guy? Luna, you… you disappoint me a lot,” Aven Harris clenched his teeth.

Aven Harris stormed out.

Luna Greenwich had the impression that she had been pushed into the abyss.

She did, however, lower her eyes and grin. In any case, she had already reached the bottom of life’s valley.

She left school on crutches in the afternoon.

When she arrived at the school gates, she noticed Michal standing close to the gate. A black Audi car suddenly came up to the school gates and halted her just as she was about to cross.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

Two males stepped out of the car and approached her. They loaded her into the car and drove away.
