Main character: Tresa(F) & Lloyd(M) //Time: Another171Please respect copyright.PENANAjUcHgCko9r
night //Place: A house in E city
********************************************************************************************
Moonlight171Please respect copyright.PENANAdRBBiKFxi2
pierced through the thin clouds, illuminating the dark night. Lloyd stood by171Please respect copyright.PENANAyxNnM4Eagw
the window in his room, enjoying the rare sight of this natural nightscape. When171Please respect copyright.PENANALRoa211Jfu
he heard the sound of a door opening and closing nearby, he realized that his171Please respect copyright.PENANAaixiNmkby7
roommate, who had been confined to her room, had finally left. Quickly, he171Please respect copyright.PENANA19NgWNL6sO
grabbed a box containing something he had just bought today and rushed out of171Please respect copyright.PENANAAVkZv7zV1R
his room. He saw the back of his roommate, Tresa, heading towards the rooftop,171Please respect copyright.PENANAL22GNntbig
so he followed her shadow up the stairs.
When he171Please respect copyright.PENANAXey5QOtS7e
reached the rooftop, Lloyd saw Tresa, dressed in simple autumn loungewear,171Please respect copyright.PENANA0u9T28VgnA
leisurely walking towards a coach swing and sitting down. The swing was a171Please respect copyright.PENANA1x7vQ2JPwY
recent addition by the homeowner, generously made available for everyone to171Please respect copyright.PENANAhXX4oUlAK8
use. Tresa began to swing while gazing up at the sky.
Lloyd171Please respect copyright.PENANALjVMa3P4DM
approached the swing, pondering how to start a conversation. He looked up at171Please respect copyright.PENANAmf4meottlr
the night sky and said, "The moon is really full tonight! Even though it's171Please respect copyright.PENANAkaCLfKy1iY
an autumn evening, it's still quite warm!"
However,171Please respect copyright.PENANAbYrhAALDEG
Tresa, who should have heard him, did not seem surprised and didn't even look171Please respect copyright.PENANAFSyyuHBsHn
up at him, as if she wasn't aware of his presence. Although the swing was a171Please respect copyright.PENANABHWyXc3HuO
two-seater, Lloyd chose not to sit with Tresa but stood next to her with his171Please respect copyright.PENANAwI4KTWCufY
hands in his pockets, trying to engage her in conversation. But no matter what171Please respect copyright.PENANAxdOUj3aOaj
topic he brought up, Tresa remained silent. Since Lloyd appeared, she had been171Please respect copyright.PENANAk7gAtVNEgS
staring at the sky and never looked directly at him.
...Was it171Please respect copyright.PENANAm5Ra4hrjvX
because of what happened yesterday at noon?
"Tresa,171Please respect copyright.PENANAzEwhb3IKlr
I'm sincerely apologizing again!"
"Huh?171Please respect copyright.PENANAkbQ09aw1tI
I'm not angry, don't misunderstand."
...She was171Please respect copyright.PENANAMz1dKi1pIy
definitely angry!
Since they171Please respect copyright.PENANASLo5jRoYCf
were boarding students, to avoid conflicts with other roommates and the171Please respect copyright.PENANAisGSdnQTQs
homeowner's family, all personal belongings, including food, had to be labelled171Please respect copyright.PENANABelMee1sFD
with their names. Otherwise, if left in public areas, they could be used or171Please respect copyright.PENANAxttCU1eYPe
thrown away without complaints. At noon, Lloyd had opened the refrigerator and171Please respect copyright.PENANA22IiLIovRO
found a cake without a label or name, so he thought it was prepared by the171Please respect copyright.PENANA5ThJck4w1o
homeowner.
As he was171Please respect copyright.PENANAYUDJHrGohG
enjoying the cake as a dessert, Tresa walked by, saw him, and angrily171Please respect copyright.PENANASqJyyEqqbc
questioned why he was eating her cake. Lloyd argued that the box had no name,171Please respect copyright.PENANAmKx5AGZ6gB
so it was the homeowner prepared. Tresa pointed to the left side of the box,171Please respect copyright.PENANAvR3FdqTvv0
where Lloyd initially only saw the store's brand and a patch of red. Squinting,171Please respect copyright.PENANAN58MTuHlj9
he saw "Tresa" written in fine red letters. The font was almost171Please respect copyright.PENANAC9mB7ySp0f
invisible due to the same color background.
Lloyd was171Please respect copyright.PENANAPuOiAMpkbz
unhappy and said, "Who could see that!? It's like not writing it at171Please respect copyright.PENANAhZgmxhbOV1
all!" Tresa angrily retorted, "I didn't do it on purpose! And I171Please respect copyright.PENANAZZMkUIMr33
waited an hour to buy this limited edition cake, just managing to get the last171Please respect copyright.PENANAb8swPlM87M
one!" Their argument escalated until the homeowner intervened to mediate,171Please respect copyright.PENANAgooNXa0Gn8
and they both quieted down.
Even so,171Please respect copyright.PENANAiWybafq1vG
since Tresa did write her name, Lloyd knew he was in the wrong and wanted to171Please respect copyright.PENANAiwbSEcRZXs
apologize. However, she suddenly picked up the remaining cake on the table,171Please respect copyright.PENANA24bdyUoFpA
walked to the kitchen, and threw it angrily into the trash before silently171Please respect copyright.PENANAR4a2G4N6in
returning to her room. It was so sudden that Lloyd didn't have time to react171Please respect copyright.PENANAji2iyAtHip
and could only watch her leave.
Feeling a171Please respect copyright.PENANAUOw27JoS0B
bit helpless, Lloyd sighed. No matter how he knocked on her door to apologize,171Please respect copyright.PENANAiMumGAC2iU
Tresa's door remained tightly shut. He had to come up with a way to make her171Please respect copyright.PENANAVImcfJ30eS
forgive him. He knew Tresa was straightforward, and if she was angry, it would171Please respect copyright.PENANAM8FuXNO7kt
be hard to change her mind.
Finally,171Please respect copyright.PENANAO3GAjgy5he
after a day, when he had some free time, Tresa stayed in her room the whole171Please respect copyright.PENANAP0WKpavJAs
time. At last, in the evening, she left her room and went to the rooftop. She171Please respect copyright.PENANAfOZiFiamm6
didn't even glance at him when he arrived, so Lloyd politely asked, "I171Please respect copyright.PENANAe3hwyjbqzP
know you're still mad, so I've thought of a way to make up for my mistake. Will171Please respect copyright.PENANAHdUgpWiQ1C
you turn around and face me?"
Tresa171Please respect copyright.PENANAoZ5iWJOnbu
slightly looked at Lloyd, her expression serious. "What way?"
Finally171Please respect copyright.PENANAkHjdYJuRee
looking at him! Lloyd smiled slightly and handed over the box he had been171Please respect copyright.PENANA9yjLqZ1WqE
holding. "I waited in line for a long time, so I understand your171Please respect copyright.PENANA8mB8R0zDcY
frustration. I'm really sorry about yesterday. I didn't mean it. Please forgive171Please respect copyright.PENANAMYuYRIooPi
me!"
Tresa opened171Please respect copyright.PENANALfJ1w9tGUt
the box and was both surprised and delighted to see two limited-edition cakes171Please respect copyright.PENANAXkKdMD0bRa
inside! She realized that she was also somewhat at fault, but she couldn't let171Please respect copyright.PENANAPMp4atlP6c
go of her anger and felt both sad and regretful. She never expected Lloyd to go171Please respect copyright.PENANAE39IMLX0a6
to the neighbouring town and stand in line to buy them. Her anger gradually171Please respect copyright.PENANAuAprMduCsx
dissipated, replaced by warmth and gratitude. Tresa nodded and smiled, saying,171Please respect copyright.PENANALN1TIG9szM
"Alright! I forgive you, but I shouldn't have written my name so small and171Please respect copyright.PENANAzyc3EyFsOT
in same colour. Sorry for losing my temper yesterday. Thank you for the171Please respect copyright.PENANAsqt2a8lDec
cakes!"
As the171Please respect copyright.PENANACiZZuyaxKj
atmosphere between them gradually eased, Lloyd pointed to the empty spot next171Please respect copyright.PENANAHdn8JoxJ0s
to Tresa. She moved aside to make room, and Lloyd sat down, leaving a small gap171Please respect copyright.PENANAIu0SG0Gfh7
between them. However, compared to the beginning, the distance between them had171Please respect copyright.PENANAXbLSvUbtxq
become much closer.
"Well,171Please respect copyright.PENANAJ7vlbCB5ES
go ahead and eat!" Lloyd said with a smile.
Tresa171Please respect copyright.PENANAbFNu2EfUAN
thought for a moment, then took one of the cakes from the box and shared it171Please respect copyright.PENANAdqAMdyRPjn
with him, smiling. "Here you go! Consider it your running fee."
Seeing her171Please respect copyright.PENANAFEHoWG53Cg
smile, Lloyd knew she had genuinely forgiven him. Happily, he accepted the cake171Please respect copyright.PENANADdsh5lCbtw
she offered. "Then I won't hold back!"
They sat on171Please respect copyright.PENANA9oEBlaHY9X
the swing, eating the cake and once again enjoying the beautiful night.
