"Actually, it is because of me. I don't want to go back home. I want to stay here. I feel happier while staying here."
Edie shrugged her shoulder and said in a peaceful voice.
"Would you mind my asking? What happened to you?"
"I am fine. Thank you for asking." Edie showed a slight smile. Then she asked Helen to get into the car. Edie would drive her back.
After sending Edie back, Edie drove back home alone.
It was eight o'clock in the evening. There were lots of cars on the road. Warm yellow light fell onto Edie's skinny face.
Edie wanted to turn around, so she looked at the rear mirror. Suddenly she saw a familiar figure.
All of a sudden, her pupils shrunk. She braked the car hard and parked the car on the side.
Then she got out of the car immediately, looking towards the other side of the road.
The man was walking among those cars just now.
His body was quite straight. He lowered his head, wore a black shirt. He looked in such a hurry.
