Chapter 5 - First Love (1/2)

After 2 months of rehabilitation, Seraphina was now able to walk. Liam was pleased with her dedication to recover. However, since that day he told her they were acquaintances, she would often teased him probably to cope with boredom. But furthermore, they became rather close as to say they were friends. He would often tell her stories about her that made Seraphina quite surprised.

”I did what?” Seraphina suspiciously narrowed her eyes as she knitted her brows.

”You slapped a gay man's bun to reject your most persistent suitor saying you like gays..” Liam repeated. In her life, Seraphina paid no attention to things that didn't piqued her interest. She knew she did a lot of silly deeds. Too many, that she herself forgot about them. But what surprises her the most is Liam knew about them.

”How did you know that?” She asked.

”Everyone does.” Liam is not a gossip person but news about Seraphina were always explosive one after another that she became the talk of the town.

”He must be traumatized.” She sighed as if she was guilty. But in reality, there isn't a sign of guilt in her heart. She just felt weird hearing her 'good ol'days' coming from the mouth of a beauty sitting on the edge of the bedside.

As Liam stared at Seraphina's guilty expression, his hand involuntarily move. Before he knew it, he was gently patting her head. Seraphina was rather liberated as she wasn't bother by the sudden physical contact.

”That what's makes you different.” Liam tried consoling her. Seraphina raised her head with a dull expression on her face.

”Different.. huh.” She shove his hand away then lay down sideways opposite to Liam direction. Seeing her upset like a spoiled princess, his lips turned upward.

”You should rest first. Chairman Yue said he'll drop by tomorrow.” Liam sat up. He glance at her for a second before he left.

As he left the room, Liam looked down at his hands that he used to pat her head. There was an indescribable feeling in his heart.
