Chapter 8

Julian was always distant with everyone.

And he really hated people getting too close.

Except me.

Not only did he not push me away, but he'd also secretly laugh at me when I did something silly.

He’d even carry me to the hospital when I had a cold or a fever.

I always thought he liked me.

But he was naturally aloof, not good at expressing himself.

So, I thought, if I just became a little prettier, I would confess.

To improve my figure, I signed up for a yoga class as soon as school let out.

After I met Veronica, she taught me how to become beautiful.

How to... capture a man's heart.

Looking back now, I was utterly foolish.
