"Don't run!"

Theresa grabbed Xu Qi's arm, her soft body pressing against him. It was like tossing a small stone into Xu Qi's tranquil heart, sending ripples across it.

But unfortunately, fate was not on their side.

Just as the two of them chatted and waited in line, a chill came from above. Xu Qi reached up and touched his head— it was raining.

"Here, your coffee."

At the amusement park's coffee shop, Theresa sat listlessly on a tall stool, her legs wrapped in white stockings swinging back and forth. Her mood was terrible.

"Oh..."

Outside the window, the drizzle pattered softly. The rain in November was like a sluggish old man—it came slowly and left just as slowly.

Theresa knew that today's date... would probably be ruined for half the day.

"Sigh... ah!"

Her cheek suddenly turned icy! Theresa turned around and saw Xu Qi holding up both hands with a wicked grin.

Theresa didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"How childish can you be? Touching someone's face with your freezing hands? I stopped doing that back in middle school."

Xu Qi pushed the coffee toward Theresa, then sat beside her and gazed out at the amusement park drenched in heavy rain. He wasn't nearly as dejected as Theresa.

"Cheer up. It's only raining. Do you really have to look so miserable?"

"It's not often that we get to come out and have fun..."

Xu Qi pulled her into his arms, and Theresa froze.

"Am I not still here with you?"

The girl's emotions were nothing like the November rain. They came quickly, and they faded just as quickly.

Theresa quietly nestled into Xu Qi's embrace. She really wished this day could continue forever—or that every day from now on could be like today.

Like... this moment.

"Theresa."
