Fourteen

Matthew continued to accompany Karin and Silvi to chat for a while until Vian came over to them.

"I'm back," said Vian in an unfriendly voice. Matthew and the two girls looked at each other at the same time. Mathhew then got up and quickly left from there. He knew Vian wouldn't be happy if he stayed there, so he chose to leave without making a fuss. He also wanted to impress Karin with him to think that he was a good man in her eyes.

After Matthew left, Vian then sat beside Karin.

"You look like you're having fun," he said sarcastically.

"Nothing," replied Karin "we were just chatting."

"Didn't I tell you not to talk to him?"

"He just accompanied us to chat, that's all," said Karin. She couldn't understand why Vian was so angry.
