Maggie felt choked up, glaring at him before finally finding her voice.

They strolled along the commercial street for a good while, and it wasn’t until more than an hour later that the hustle and bustle of the shops and crowds on both sides finally settled down.

Maggie wandered around for a bit and felt less stuffed. They took a stroll through an alley and onto a road, planning to head back soon.

Suddenly, Nathael’s phone rang. Glancing at the number, he said quietly, “I’ll take this call.”

“Sure.” Maggie replied, nodding as she followed beside him.

It seemed to be related to work. Some project seemed to be facing issues, prolonging Nathael’s call.

At first, Maggie patiently waited by his side. But as time passed, she couldn’t help but feel bored, so she wandered over to a few scattered stalls on both sides of the road to see what was happening.

Most of the stalls here sold handmade items, including some adorable hand–woven pendants. Maggie picked out a pair of star and moon pendants, planning to hang them on her laptop bag.

Nathael stood not far behind her under the streetlight while he patiently listened to the phone call, never taking his eyes off Maggie.

After buying the pendants, Maggie went to check out a flower stall.

An old lady in her sixties or seventies sold the flowers. She sat on a small stool with two large vases in front of her, filled with flowers. Some were no longer fresh, but others looked decent. It was clear that the old lady didn’t know much about flowers.
