Chapter 76
This was an unexpected order from Damien. Everyone went off to enjoy their break time and left the couple on their own. “No more next time, alright…” Before Damien could finish, his mouth was stuffed with the cotton candy. Damien felt it melted instantly and leaving only a trace of sugary sweetness in his mouth. “Do you like it?” Ava asked. Damien snorted and muttered, “I don’t understand the pleasure of eating cotton candy.”. “Humph! Judging from your reaction, I bet it was your first time eating cotton candy,” Ava sneered. She was right. Damien had never eaten cotton candy before. This explained why he had no idea that the large fluffy cotton candy could melt like that before swallowing But it tasted very sweet nonetheless. After the incident twenty years ago, he never thought of having cotton candy anymore. After all, Damien was traumatized by the kidnapping incident until today. He watched Ava tore off a chunk of the candy and swallowed it off in one go. Damien then noticed sugary stains around her mouth. “You look messy,” Damien commented. “Hey! You look the same too just now!” Ava tried to feed him by aiming the cotton candy at his mouth. Damien dodged and sooner, both of them ended up in a sweet and sticky mess. “It’s all your fault that we’re sticky now!” Ava berated him. Yet, Damien was in a good mood. It was a strange feeling. Ever since his confession that night, their relationship seemed to have improved.
Unlike previously when she used to walk on eggshells around him, Ava was more relaxed and cheerful now. Damien was reminded of her in a dress waiting under the cherry blossom trees in the past. He noticed that Ava was seemingly anticipating someone every day after classes. It took him some time to recognize her name and figured out that Damien was the one she was waiting for. “Hey, stop daydreaming! I’m going to wash my hands.” Ava waved in his face to get his attention. Damien returned to his senses and nodded. The public washroom was nearby and both of them entered their gender-designated sections. However, Ava did not come out after Damien exited the washroom.
Women were always dawdling in the washroom!

Damien bit the remaining cotton candy and realized that it was melting and falling apart under the hot sun.
He could not resist and took another bite. It was his first time eating in front of a public washroom.
Until he finished the candy, Ava was still not coming out. Damien decided to yell her name from the outside. However, there was no reply. Only then Damien realized that something went wrong and he tossed the stick aside while rushing into the washroom!
As he swung open the door, Damien felt a heavy blow hit his nape. He then felt a pain through his skull and blacked out. When he woke up again, Damien could see nothing in front of him.
A voice called for him repeatedly, “Damien… Damien! Wake up, Damien!”
“Ava?”
He recognized Ava’s voice and reached towards her instinctively. From there, Damien could feel her face.
