That afternoon, Chleo had no appetite for meals. She stared at her food while playing her spoon over her plate. Chleo kept a sullen face even though her lover was pinching her cheeks playfully.
"What's wrong with you? You're not hungry anymore?"
"Not after hearing you're leaving me," she grumbled like a child.
Chleo did have reason to frown. Without preparation, Max suddenly announced that he was going back to England this week. Of course, this made her down, plus the man's behavior recently was bizarre.
Max was still gentle and understanding to her, just like always he was. It was just… he wasn't teasing her anymore or being nonsensical, like giving her an absurd choice or something.
It was as if the man keeping his distance from her? Or is it just her feeling only?
