158. The Report

Putting aside his innocent-sounding laugh, there was one thing that made me curious after knowing how old he was. "May I ask?" I used to treat him lightly like fiends of the same age, addressing him formally felt awkward. "So have you been married?"

Now, he was laughing aloud. I even saw him cry, what was so funny about what I said earlier? "I'm not married," He said after a suppressing laugh, his face red to the tips of his ears. "We can never get married." I caught a glimpse of the regretful expression on his face.
