A New Place

"I understand your intentions." Esther smiled at her. "Don't worry, I won't think that way."

"Good." Miss Young nodded and stood up. "Let's go. It will be too late to board the plane."

After walking out of the lounge, Esther thought of the message she had just sent to Terence and felt a little embarrassed.

It had only been a short fifteen minutes since she sent the message, and she had changed her mind. What would Terence think of her?

"Didn't you say you wouldn't go?" Terence mocked her.

To ease the awkwardness, Esther deliberately smiled. "Just a joke. I didn't expect you to not care at all. You didn't even give me a call."

"What do you expect me to say? Beg you don't go back?"

"At least give me a call asking how I go home," Esther said.

Terence didn't say anything. He got up and walked towards the boarding gate.

As Esther was boarding the plane behind, Terence gazed at Miss Young displeased. "You persuaded her to come back?"
