Feelings of Repression
Jordy nodded faintly, got up and walked out.
Angela followed up immediately.
No matter how unwilling she felt, she could not feel at ease unless she was there with him.
And they ordered a table full of food, which was barely touched.
Jordy lost her appetite because of Gloria, and Angela found it hard to swallow because of Jordy‘s
absent–mindedness.
Soon they come to Lovell‘s box.
But…
Gloria was nowhere to be seen.
Angela was as surprised. “Lovell, Does… Does Gloria leave?”
“Yes,” replied Lovell carelessly.Jordy‘s brow furrowed slightly.When Angela saw that Gloria was gone,
she did not want to stay here as well. She said directly to Jordy, “In that case, Jordy, I‘m going home,
too.”
“Okay,” replied Jordy without sparing another look at her.
Angela inhaled faintly and left.
The wind at night was more aggressive than in the daytime. Angela tamed and smoothed her hair and
then took out her cell phone.She put in Gloria‘s number, but… before pushing the dial button, she
stopped.
Gloria ignored Jordy the entire time and, knowing that Jordy would reach out to Lovell, she simply left
early. Gloria had exercised great restraint, if she kept bugging her, it only made her look petty, didn‘t it?
Angela bit her lip. When did she become like this?
She always thought she was so much better than Gloria, but why did she do what she did now?
In frustration, Angela raised her hands, covered her head, gnashed her teeth and wondered what made
her act like this!
The night breeze was chilling.
Gloria took a leisure stroll on the road. She was in a hurry to go home.
The street was ablaze with lights. Gloria‘s eyes narrowed slightly.
Melodious music playing gave Gloria an unrealistic feeling, I heard That you‘re settled down That you
found a girl And you are married now
Guess she gave you things I didn‘t give to you
Old friend
Why are you so shy
Aren‘t like you to hold back
Or hide from the light I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited
But I couldn‘t stay away I couldn‘t fight it
I had hoped you‘d see my face and that you‘d be reminded
That for me, it isn‘t over
Never mind
Gloria couldn‘t help but stop to enjoy the music.
She wondered why she could relate to the song and its lyrics so well while it meant something
completely different from her situation…
She lifted her eyes slightly to see all the lights in the building. The music sounded soothing. But she
only grew irritated by it. She frowned suddenly and left in several strides.
The depressing feelings made her pant.
She picked up her pace to the underground parking lot. Suddenly, her phone rang. It was from Bryson.
She put it through,
“Bryson?”
What was he up to?
There was a burst of noise on the other end of the call. Gloria wondered if he had dialed her number by
mistake? Or, was he calling to ask her out?
While she was still feeling puzzled, Bryson spoke up…
