Gary walked up to meet her at the door of the dessert shop.
Meanwhile, Celeste had just stepped out of the door. She froze in her tracks when she spotted Gary.
They exchanged gazes. Celeste was standing at the top of the stairs, while Gary stood at the bottom.
Under the shining sun, the both of them looked like the perfect couple, inviting the gazes of the public.
A myriad of conflicting emotions filled Celeste's chest.
Gary had a complicated look in his eyes as he gazed at Celeste quietly.
"You can head back first. Florina and I are going to have a meal. After that, I'll make my own way home," Celeste spoke first.
Gary frowned in response. "Where are you guys eating? I can give you a lift."
Celeste pursed her lips and said, "There's no need for that. We're going shopping first before finding somewhere to sit and eat. We don't know when we'll be back."
