When she was twenty,
he rescued her from the suffocating ruins of a nightmare.
At the time, he was a ray of light in her dark life,
easily melting her young heart
and comforting the insecurities she couldn't put to rest in a foreign land.
Six years later, when he appeared again,
she was grateful for fate's arrangement and carefully hid her feelings.
But how could she possibly keep them hidden?
She quietly followed his every move, falling deeper and deeper...
Later, before she had fallen too far to pull herself out,
she chose to make a graceful exit.
But after that, he kept showing up in her life,
casually sitting beside her in front of her blind dates,
whispering into her ear in secret.
He still made her heart flutter, just as he had when they first met.
But she was puzzled.
Since when had he become so devious?
