As Maja observed Shirley's hesitation, she couldn't help but wonder if Shirley's lack of confidence was because of her age. Was

Shirley thinking that at thirty, she was too old for Abner, who was just twenty-four? Was the age gap making her reluctant to

confess her feelings?

It was pretty clear that Abner had been the first to fall for Shirley, but at that time, Shirley seemed to be engaged to another man.

So, she had been repressing her feelings, keeping them bottled up until now when she couldn't help but sneak a peek into his life,

yet she refused to cface-to-face with him.

"Hey, lan is planning to grab a bite with Abner soon," Maja casually mentioned to Shirley, "I was wondering if you'd be free to join

us, Ms. Dorothy. Since you know each other and I'm keen on making a new friend, why not calong?"

Shirley's response was a momentary freeze, followed by a hesitant pause, and finally a tight-lipped nod without a word.

Maja waited patiently.

After ten seconds, Shirley slowly nodded and said, "Sure, but I don't think he's too keen on seeing me. We ended on a bit of a sour

note."

It must have been the whole fiancé situation.

Maja couldn't help but smile.

"Great, I'll text you the details once the place is set. Is it okay to add you as a contact?"

Without hesitation, Shirley pulled out her phone and displayed her QR code. They added each other, and Maja breathed a sigh of
