She Outshines Them All (Athena and Matthew)
Chapter 409
Chapter 409
Zayn didn't slow down just because Tina was struggling to keep up. For the next hour or so, he stuck to his own pace, walking his usual route.
Tina, though, was struggling. After over an hour of following him, she finally made it back to her place, her legs aching like they had been through a marathon. "Ugh, okay, exercise is good and all," she groaned, sinking her feet into the hot water, rubbing her sore legs and stomach. "But this is a bit much, isn't it?" She sighed, thinking to herself, "If I quit now, he will just think I'm all talk. Like, I'm not actually serious about this."
She paused, wiping away an imaginary tear. "I brought this on myself. I chose the male lead, so even if I'm crying, I have to keep chasing him." Just then, Maria's message popped up: [Tina, I'm finishing my advanced studies tomorrow and will be back in Kitmore City in the evening.] Tina's face lit up. [That's awesome! I can't wait!]
Maria: [How about dinner tomorrow night? My family is hardly ever home lately, so there will only four people, maybe. It's gonna be chill.]
In Maria's mind, Tina was a bit of a homebody. Since it was her first time coming over, she figured Tina would feel more comfortable with just a few people around.
Tina quickly typed back. [Sounds perfect, I will be there.]
She giggled to herself after sending the message.
When Maria got back, Tina would have her support to get closer to the Donovan family-and to Zayn. It was a solid plan.
In a great mood, Tina wrote over seven thousand words that night before heading to bed feeling satisfied.

The next morning, Zayn stepped outside and spotted Tina waiting for him, dressed in casual clothes with a little waist bag slung around.
"Morning, Zayn!" she called out, waving at him with a grin. "I am here to join you for your morning walk."
Zayn just shrugged. "If you think you can keep up, go ahead."
