He's here today too...?
Rachel couldn't believe it. Just a short while after their last encounter, she ran into him again. It seemed this world really was small.
She lifted her gaze, and there he was.
Garrett Vincent tonight was dressed in a casual white outfit, a stark contrast to his usual formal attire.
He looked less rigid, more relaxed, yet still carried that unmistakable aura of indifference.
His handsome face, illuminated by the warm lights of the hall, radiated a sense of distance.
Even though he was surrounded by a crowd, it felt as if an invisible barrier separated him from the lively atmosphere, making him seem almost untouchable.
It was like he had built a wall around his world, allowing no one to step inside easily.
And once upon a time… the only person who could breach that barrier was the little girl who had shared hardships with him in their childhood.
That version of himself, gentle and vulnerable, was long gone.
