It had been a long time since Stella went to a shopping mall. But she never had nothing new to wear, because Clarence would regularly order someone to swap out her clothes in the closet with new ones and got her clothes with the latest fashion trend.

That was why she didn’t shop for herself too often unless it was something she really liked. She would normally buy stuff for him instead.

Sherry sneered at what she heard, “You are telling me this on purpose to make me angry, aren’t you?”

Stella laughed upon hearing her, “Oh right, isn’t your birthday coming up in 2 weeks? What do you want? I’ll buy you anything.”

“I want a boyfriend.”

Stella was speechless.

She said seriously, “Forget that I asked.”

Stella sat on the sofa and looked outside, they were many couples hand in hand. She sighed, “Why does it seem so easy for other people to date? Did I do something wrong to the god of love? I’ve only met fuckboys and none of them is normal.”

She then said, “And my mom is absurd. She kept phoning me recently and wanted me to go on arranged marriage interviews.”

Stella was shocked, “Arranged marriage interviews?”

“Yeah, she said it’s her classmate’s son or whatsoever. He is working at state company, has a stable job and is an honest person. His parents’ background is known through and through, so he won’t be an asshole like Liam.”

“So, are you going?”

Stella sighed again, “I don’t want to. But my mom said if I don’t go, I don’t welcome at home anymore.”

She paused briefly and said, “But well, this person is suitable for marriage. You rest assure and lead a stable life, but I… I don’t want marriage to be like a business, I don’t want marriage without love. I might as well find a roommate.”

Stella nodded, “Well, your mother is just worried about you. Try to talk to her nicely when you get home.”

“I don’t want to talk about it anymore. My head hurts every time she nags. I’ll just go on the weekend and come up with an excuse to reject him. That way I can tell my mom that I’ve tried.”

“That sounds good too.”

They walked for a while and Stella’s phone rang. It was Daniel. She walked to the side to answer the call.
