My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna)

Hendrix was not a god. I can't be selfish and have him constantly look at the woman he loved getting upset over another man.

I was used to being callous and free around him. I would just look like a novice if I were to hide my feelings. If I were to force a smile, then it would seem like there was something ambiguous going on between Irvin and me. Hence, I'd better be frank and face the reality of my emotions.

As we were about to leave, Hendrix intentionally changed into the leisurewear that I picked out for him. He looked more casual and laid back. The standoffish look in him was much reduced and he actually looked a lot more approachable.

I smiled and said humorously, "You are about to meet your romance rival, and yet you dressed up to look so friendly?"

"Have I?" Hendrix didn't even bat an eye as he walked forward to hold my shoulders before we headed out. As we walked, he said, "Don't you realize that I'm wearing this to match with your outfit?"

I looked down at my own clothes and realized that it was true. However, I could no longer smile the

next second.

I could understand that upon facing rivals, this was intended to cause envy, but provocation would only worsen Irvin's current situation. It really wasn't appropriate for us to wear something like this.

As I was lost in thought, I felt a pinch of pressure from the hand on my shoulders. Hendrix said hastily, "I am not petty. Even in a situation like this, where the other is at disadvantage, I would rather win fair and square."
