Chapter 28 Almost Meet
Meanwhile, Alexa seems to want to go out, but she is hesitant. “Will I go out or not?” she asked herself. “But I want hot soup. Lexie’s stock of noodles is gone.” Eventually, she decided to leave the house to shop again at the mall she went to the previous day.
By the time she came out of the house again, it was the chance for Alexa to see the photos of the book she was holding attached to the light pole right in front of her. It was only a few steps away that she could see them when someone suddenly hit her human body.
He stood her up and asked, “Are you okay, miss?”
Daniella couldn’t answer because at the time the two of them met their gaze and stared at each other, it was as if she couldn’t take her gaze away from it, as if he was absorbing her personality. And then she suddenly woke up in the present. “It’s okay,” she said simply.
” Are you sure?” the man asked her again. She just nodded in response. “I’m sorry again. You’ll be careful on the road.” It even reminded her.
She started walking again and didn’t look back, but the man kept looking at Alexa as she turned her back, before finally walking away.
When Daniella was walking, she couldn’t see the photos on the pole even though there was a chance that her eyes would look at the pole. A mysterious man she bumped into a while ago is the reason why Daniella made the photos invisible to her sight for now. So Daniella felt as if she had been absorbed in something earlier while the man was staring at her.
She arrived at a mall and immediately went to a supermarket to buy what she needed, as well as noodles. But while she was doing that, Jack was inside the mall too.
Jack was standing on the second floor of the mall and just staring at the bottom of it, overlooking the outside because of its transparency, like the served walls. He just silently stared outside as he stood and inserted his hand into his pants pocket. When its phone abruptly rang.
He immediately took it out of his pants pocket and answered. “Hello! Jack.” said of the person on the other line.
“Are you on the way yet?” he asked.
“Yeah, it’s only been a few minutes and I’m there.”
“All right, I’ll turn off the call that so you don’t have encounter an accident while driving.” He turned off the phone call, pocketed his cellphone again, and looked outside again.
Alexa also spent an hour at the supermarket because of the foods she finds delicious to cook. “My groceries don’t look like healthy food. Why is it that I seem to want to eat too much food today?” she said while pushing the cart and heading to the cashier area. Meanwhile, Glen is entering the mall because he was the one Jack was talking to earlier. But as he was entering the entrance of the mall, Alexa was already at the exit, so he didn’t see Alexa.
While Alexa’s hand couldn’t hold the plastic because of the weight she had bought, she stopped for a moment at the side of the road and lowered the plastic bag she was carrying and looked around. But in that scene, Jack was alert from the second floor of the mall because, in his mind, it looked like Alexa was what his two eyes could see now.
He ran and used the stairs down because there was no escalator in the mall where he was, and there was no problem if there was, because even if it was so easy to ride the escalator and wait until it reached the floor, he would definitely still walk down immediately. As he took a quick step down, he would meet Glen. “Follow me, hurry up!” he shouted softly. Although confused, Glen immediately followed him, but they didn’t catch up because Alexa immediately disappeared where he had seen her a while ago.
“What are we doing here, Jack?” Glen asked, confused.
He looks around at the people, and maybe he’ll see Alexa again. “I saw Alexa right here where we are standing, so I quickly went down, but it looks like it’s too late,” he said disappointedly. Glen frowned. “Are you sure she’s the one you saw?”
“I’m not sure, but half of her face is Alexa, I saw. Maybe it’s her.”NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
Glen shook his head. “We can’t say it’s her because you’re far from each other. Where were you before?”
He pointed to the second floor, where the view was below. “It’s too high, maybe another girl, you’ve mistakenly seen Alexa.”
He sighed and parted his hair. “You think so, but I need to tell you what I found out.”
“Okay go ahead. Let’s go back upstairs. With don’t have too many people.” He nodded and followed Glen, but he looked around again before finally entering the mall.
Meanwhile, Alexa was just on the other side of the road when Jack was looking for her. She couldn’t really see Alexa because there was a wall standing near the road that reached up to the human waist. As soon as Jack got out of the mall, Alexa bent her body behind the wall, so he couldn’t really see it. Jack didn’t even plan to cross to the other side of the road.
“It’s good that it can be done this way.” Then Alexa stood up and left. Coincidentally, Alexa’s slippers were damaged, so she didn’t stand up right away because there was a big chance she and Jack saw each other.
Meanwhile, the two are already on the second floor, and in that part, there are not too many people around. The part where Jack and Glen are is the place where people want to rest for an hour. “So, what are you going to tell me if this is where we actually met?”
“I’m sorry if I sent you here, but I’d like you to assign some of your people here to this mall.”
Glen frowned. “Why?”
“Someone told me that someone saw Alexa here. And it looks like she’s shopping for her groceries here, so there’s a big chance that your team will see Alexa here. And I’m also not sure if she’s the one I saw a while ago, so it’s good we are sure. ”
“Where did you get that information?”
“From Ryan.”
“Who is Ryan?”
“He was Alexa’s crush back then,” he promised.
Glen frowned for a few minutes as he remembered who it was. “Really, how did you talk?”
“It was also unplanned at a restaurant while I was going to the parking lot. At first I didn’t know him; it’s just that he knew me by face.”
“So it means he saw Alexa here. What do you think was his reaction?”
He smiled at Glen. “They just talked. Ryan, also have a family, so I’m comfortable with him, but I just don’t know anyone else Alexa met.”
“But it’s easier to find Alexa because of the information you said. Don’t worry, tomorrow I’ll send some of my men to see her right away.”
He smiled. “I hope to see her this month.” and turned his gaze to the two couples holding their hands that passed in front of them.
