Chapter 123

Smiley is a friend Robert met online, their friendship blossomed on a “photo restoration” forum.

Two years ago, Smiley was on the forum looking for someone to restore photos. By chance, Robert noticed that her profile indicated she was in Stonebridge City. He saved her contact info.

After a lot of chatter, they had become good pals who can talk about anything.

On the day Smiley was coming back, Robert wanted to surprise her at the airport. But due to family issues, he couldn’t risk giving away his whereabouts, so he stayed incognito.

But he was curious about this online friend he had never met. What did she look like?

He thought about it, worried that Smiley might get the wrong idea. He quickly explained, “Don’t get me wrong, it’s not that I don’t want to see you. I’ve got some stuff going on and it’s just not a good time.”

Smiley chuckled, “You’re overthinking this. I didn’t misunderstand. I get it, you can tell me when you’re back.”
