Fated to Love You Again (Shawn and Norah) novel Chapter 142

Chapter 142 Fool, You're the One (1)

Norah quickly wiped away the tears on her face and said, "It's nothing. I just thought about some things from the past and felt a bit emotional."

"It's okay. I'm already fine," she said, trying hard to put on a smile to hide her true feelings.

"Really? Are you not lying to me? What makes you so sad when you think about it? Can you tell me?" Shawn naturally had his doubts.

"Just some old things. It's better not to mention them. Oh, by the way, didn't we say we were going to have dinner? I only had a little for lunch, and I'm actually quite hungry now."

"Okay, where do you want to eat?" Shawn asked.

"On the street outside of No.1 Middle School." Norah said almost without thinking.

She had decided on this place long ago.

Originally, she thought that if she ever went back there with him one day, she would go back with beautiful memories. But now, everything was filled with sadness and sorrow.

Forget it. This was for the best.

Their relationship would end where it had begun.

At least they started and ended their relationship in a good way. It was not too awkward.

But Shawn was particularly surprised and curious, asking, "You seem to have a special attachment to No.1 Middle School."

"Really?" Norah smiled and did not explain.

In summer, the sky always got dark late. When they arrived at No.1 Middle School, the sky was still bright, and the sun was bending in the west.

A large swath of radiant clouds appeared in the sky, orange, reddish-orange, and deep red... Various shades of red spread across the sky, forming a beautiful ink painting. It was truly stunning.

The horizon was filled with rosy light.

Norah looked up with joy, the afterglow of the sunset falling on her oval face, making her look even gentler and prettier.

"It's so beautiful!"

The gentle breeze blew.

Everything was so wonderful, but her heart was as heavy as lead.

In the end, since everything started here, just let it end here.

"Shawn, have you been back here after graduating?" Norah asked.

He shook his head. "I haven't had time to come back since graduating, except for the time I came with you."

"What's wrong? Do you often come here?"

Norah nodded. "Yes, I come here every year, sometimes three or four times a year. At least I would come back once a year."

"Why?"

Norah smiled and looked at Shawn. At that moment, she was facing the wind, smiling like a child, youthful, lively, and flawless.

She said, "Because I'm filled with nostalgia for the past. I spent my best and happiest years of my youth here."

So, how could she not miss it?

Her best and happiest years?

At that moment, the first thought that came to Shawn's mind was "him", the man whom she had loved for ten years in her heart.

"Is it..." Shawn spoke.

But he hesitated before he could finish the question.

He admitted that he was scared and timid.

He was afraid to hear her answer and even more afraid of an affirmative answer.

If that was the case, he would go crazy with jealousy.

For now, he would continue to deceive himself. As long as she didn't say the answer, he could pretend not to know anything and continue to lie to himself.

At least it wouldn't hurt so much.

"What do you want to eat?" Shawn changed the subject.

Norah pointed to a noodle restaurant across the street. "I want to eat noodles. What about you?"

"I'll have what you're having."

"Okay."

They arrived at the noodle restaurant together. Since it was mealtime, there were quite a few people inside. But fortunately, the place and table were large enough to give a spacious feeling despite the crowd.
