Chapter 33

Us

If only I could disappear this instant, I would have done it a long time ago. All I wanted at that moment was to disappear without him seeing me. But I know that's far from reality. And deep inside me, I know this time will come.

I calmed myself down and just focused on what I was doing. I was relieved when it was almost done. All I wanted was to get out of there as soon as possible. I can hear Santi's voice from afar and no matter how much I stop myself from listening, I can't.

Heavy footsteps from behind awakened me from my reverie. And before I knew it, he was right in front of me. He avoided looking at me and shook hands with the judges next to me. I cleared my throat with the indifference he was giving me. Or was I just imagining things?

He's totally different from the last time I saw him. His physique let out a strong authority and aura. No wonder all the staff went into chaos when he walked in. Not to mention his serious and stern expression which seems to be natural to him.
