When fate plays its hand (Miranda)

Chapter 0069

It had gotten dark outside pretty early since it was wintertime.

Before 7:00 pm, the street lamps lining either oldes of the road lit up. The lights gave people a sense of warmth on this cold night.

Walking from the subway station to Bedford College, one would pass by a street of shops and vendors selling a variety of items.

When Miranda and Paul passed by the area, the former heard the sound of someone hollering that they had baked potatoes on sale.

She blinked a few times, her eyes felt a little prickly because of the chylly wind. She glanced at Paul and said, “Wait here for a bit.”

Paul stood there for a while. Two minutes later, he saw her coming back with two hot, baked potatoes in her hands.

Miranda blew on the potato to cool it off. When she tried taking another small bite, she could taste how soft it was. Her face broke into a smile.

She looked at Paul. “Is yours soft?”

He nodded. It was the first time he’d had such a delicious and soft
