Chapter 7：Can I take off my clothes? (1/2)

After eating together, Mario and I seemed reluctant to part. from a cafe that is not crowded with visitors, he invites me to walk to a park.

He held my hand warmly, Mario did not cover his head with a hoodie, maybe because it was dark. I wonder why he looks so wary, but I don't want to ask him too many questions.

I just want to enjoy this togetherness, let go of the longing that always makes my chest tight.

I said, let's date him, but he did not answer with certainty.

I don't want to think much. I want to enjoy this togetherness.

”Bey, I'm so sorry I couldn't see you again after that night.” He started discussing it.

I was curious about all the reasons he just disappeared that day. But I tried to hold back, and .. now, I don't want to hold back anymore.

I turned slightly, facing him, my body leaned, saw my sitting position, he turned his head, until our faces met. He smiled sweetly.

”Mario, you must have a reason. Seeing you like this makes me happy. I'm not a teenage girl like in the past, I'm an adult now. Then. I ..” I don't know what else to say. Something knocked on my heart, making me lost for words, my eyes staring into his eyes that seemed to be shining.

This park was getting lonely because it was late at night. Several couples seemed to have looked elsewhere while we were still here.

He saw my eyes that cast a glance at the park.

”You want to move somewhere?” He asked.

I'm confused about what to say. I still want to be with him, I still want this togetherness.

”Sofia has a connection at a hotel. ” why do you mention your wife's name in front of me. didn't you understand my feelings, it hurts. ”I don't want anyone to see us, let's go over there, you have to go in first, I'll catch up with you later. I usually enter through another door. Sofia taught me well.”

Why does it seem like you are so proud of your wife in front of me? How stupid again! I just kept quiet, as if I complied with Mario's ridiculous request.

He gets up from the park bench and takes my hand, but I don't want to stand up. I'm still transfixed sitting in this chair.

He sat back down, I looked up.

”Do you want to stay here?” He asked softly. He squatted in front of me, put his hands on my thighs.

I folded my lips, acting cute. ”Why do you look nervous, what are you worried about, you have to tell me so I understand, Mario,” I said then.

Mario retracted his smile, he stood up a little, bringing his lips closer to my ear. ”I don't want anyone to see and recognize me here. I've been married, How could a husband be alone with a beautiful girl like you in public. ”

His words made me jolt. You are right! Ah, I'm so stupid. Even though he's married, I still don't want to let him go, even though he's someone's husband, I still want to be with him.
